2 Characteristics
The camera system can be used to monitor displays, vehicles and any other
device under test (DUT) during EMC-tests. Together with the optional
pan/tilt unit and an optional shielded external power supply, the camera
can be used to monitor absorber lined chambers. With its wide zoom range
and adjustable settings, the system can be adopted to many use cases. The
integrated microphone allows the additional acoustical monitoring of the
device under test.
The camera comes with a 1/4” tripod mount and two shielded battery
connection cables with different lengths. Depending on the range of use,
the battery pack can be placed close to the camera (if high field strengths
are suspected at the cameras place) or it can be placed on the ground floor
or at a place which is better to reach, if the camera is mounted in a place
which is difficult to access.
3 Field of application
• Video monitoring of DUTs and/or absorber lined chambers or free
field tes sites (dry conditions) during EMC-tests
• Audio monitoring of DUTs and/or absorber lined chambers during
EMC-tests
• Transmission of camera pictures over long distances without loss of
signal quality.

4 Maintenance
Recharge the external batteries after use with the enclosed charger for
NiMH batteries. The batteries have a very low memory effect and
therefore can be recharged right after using, even if not completely
discharged.
Only use power supplies, battery chargers and power connector cables
which are approved by us. Please call your distributor.
Fig. 4.1 shows the pinning of the 3 poled power connector of the camera.
Battery packs are connected to pin 1 (+) and pin 3 (GND). The shielded
external power supply is connected to pin 2(+) and pin 3. The Pwr On/Off
button is without function then. The camera is turned on and off with the
power supply.
Fig. 4.2 shows the pinning of the 5 poled plug of the battery packs. They
are charged with pins 2 (+) and 4 (GND). Pins 1 and 5 are used for
temperature surveillance.
Due to self-discharge issues with NiMH batteries, recharge batteries before
use, if the system has not been used for a longer time.
Do not use cleaning agents or solvents to clean the devices, only use a
slightly moistened, soft cloth.
Do not open the devices, as there are no parts inside which have to be
maintained. The opened housing can pose a fire hazard through shortcircuit currents! Please contact your distributor or the manufacturer if you
have any problems. Send in the complete camera system, if a problem
cannot be solved by turning the devices off and on again or by checking
the positions of the switches or other reasons from the trouble shooting
list (chap. 5). Please contact us in any case before sending in the devices.

5 Trouble shooting
The following trouble shooting list is provided to assist you while having
problems. It might let you use the system again without a long down time:
Error: Possible reasons: Solution:
No or erroneous
transmission
Receiver does not
receive an optical signal
Cables damaged or not
attached properly
Wrong optical fibers
(diameter)
Low battery
System turned off
Check optical fibers and
connections, change
fibers if necessary
Connectors and cables
regarding damages
Use fiber with
62,5/125µm
Charge batteries
Turn on all devices
No transmission, noise
at output
Low battery
No optical signal
Position of mic-/line IN
switch is wrong
Charge batteries
Check for light at optical
output. Replace optical
fiber
Check switch position
Device cannot be
turned on, cannot be
charged
Batteries damaged
Charger or cable
damaged
Batteries
over discharged
Send device to us
Check / replace charger
and charging cable
Charge batteries,
maybe use other
charger (10 battery
cells)
High pitched whistle Acoustic feedback Turn down speaker
volume of receiver
Change position of
microphone
Common problems Defective optical or
electrical cables or
connectors
Check connectors, fibers
and cables. Test with
other ones.
Replace cables

Error: Possible reasons: Solution:
Camera does not
respond to remote
control (video signal is
working)
Wrong camera-ID set
optical fiber is not
attached or defective
Set the correct ID in the
setup of the camera
(number of the receiver
output the camera is
connected to, set to 1
for one-channel
receiver dAV-Rr)
Check / replace optical
fiber
Pan/tilt unit does not
respond to remote
control
Camera-ID and unit-ID
do not correspond
Cable is not attached or
defective
Test all available
channels, then set
camera-ID to unit-ID
