20
Thank you very much.
You have acquired an electronic system of a very high technical
standard. With the TV AVS 815 Power Transmitter you can
transmit colour images with stereo sound through walls and
ceilings.
The greatest possible care is necessary for bringing it into
operations, and that means studying every point in these
operating instructions.
Please read these operating instructions even if a third party has
already installed the system because they contain important
information and the basic principles of operation.
We would not expect any problems to arise with the system, but
if any should occur please inform the dealer from whom you
acquired this device.
Please keep this instructions ready to hand whenever you may
need to consult them.

Correct and proper use
The TV AVS 815 Power Transmitter is designed for use in dry, indoor
rooms. The power supply is provided by the mains adapter enclosed with
the Transmitter. Please only ever use this mains adapter.
It is not allowed to alter or modify any part of the system.
The unit is registered as a device that does not cause or suffer radiofrequency interference, it is CE-approved, and it conforms with the Low
Voltage Directory.
The safety and installation instructions must be observed.
There shall be no guarantee cover against damage resulting from any
failure to observe these operating instructions, and no legal liability for
any resultant consequential damage.
General functions
With the TV AVS 815 Power T ransmitter you can transmit cable television
signals, and signals from other video equipment such as VCR, SATreceivers, and video cameras by radio.
The audio and video signals are transmitted in the 2.4 GHz range by the
AVS 815 Power Transmitter to the AVS 840 Power Receiver. The
maximum line-of-sight range is 300 metres.
The cable tuner integrated into the AVS 850 Power Transmitter is
controlled by the Power Receiver with the enclosed RC 815 infra-red
remote control. If you point the remote-control unit in the direction of the
infra-red window on the AVS 840 receiver, the infra-red signals from this
remote-control unit will be converted into radio signals which will in turn
be transmitted in the 433 MHz range to the AVS 850 Power Transmitter.
Inside the AVS 850, the radio signals are converted back into infra-red
signals and passed on to the integral cable tuner.
IMPORTANT
If the system is handled incorrectly there is a risk of injury
from electric shock. The following instructions must be
followed, in order to avoid any risk of injury or damage,
and the operating instructions must also be adhered to.
- It is never allowed to open the plug-in mains adapter
- Only a properly qualified technician is allowed to check and
inspect the system.
- The system is only ever to be operated in dry, indoor rooms.
- Avoid high atmospheric humidity and extreme ambient
temperatures
- Should any fault occur in the power supply the system should
be taken out of operation at once. Never replace defective
parts with anything other than original spare parts.
- If there is any danger of a thunderstorm, it is a good
precaution to separate the system from the mains network in
order to protect it from lightning. The same applies if the
system is to be out of action for any length of time.
- Power must be supplied at the correct rating at all times. This
applies in particular to the operating voltage in the system
and the mains adapter.
- If there is ever any malfunction, the dealer from whom the
system was acquired must be asked to send it back to the
manufacturer for inspection.

3. Transmissions
23
If you use the infra-red remote control of another piece of video
equipment, these infra-red signals will be passed on via the RX 579 infrared module to the relevant appliance, such as a satellite-receiver, the
audio and video signals of which are being transmitted. In order to allow
this equipment, e.g. the satellite receiver, to be controlled via the remote
control to select programmes, the infra-red transmitter on the infra-red
module must be glued onto the infra-red receiver of the equipment that
is being remote-controlled.
When it is being glued on, attention must be paid to ensuring that the
"infra-red eye” of the unit is not completely covered over, so as to ensure
that direct control with the original remote-control unit is still possible.
The extension module possesses two infra-red diodes for controlling two
different units, e.g. a satellite received and a video-recorder.
Establish the position of the infra-red receiver with the aid of the
operating instructions for the unit that is to be controlled; if it is not
possible to locate it exactly, a little trial-and-error will be necessary. You
will thus have the possibility of controlling the unit, the signals of which
are to be transmitted, with the standard remote-c.

1 Cinch/Scart connecting cable
1 co-axial branch plug
1 co-axial cable
1 co-axial infra-red remote-control unit for cable tuner
1 aerial adapter
Control elements
1,433 MHz aerial
Receives the 433 MHz signals of the original remote-control unit
sent by radio from the AVS 840 Power Transmitter and passes
them on to the integrated cable tuner. The infra-red remotecontrol signals are also passed on via the enclosed infra-red
module to the connected item, such as a video-recorder. The
aerial must be placed upwards when the unit is in operation.
2. Socket for RX 579 extension module
For connecting the RX 579 extension module, which remotecontrols the transmitter. The infra-red diode on the extension
module must be glued over the infra-red eye of the item being
controlled. Please note Point 3 here.
