segmented bracket arms to the desired viewing angle. Once
you've finished, put the dome back in place and check to be sure
none of the cameras touch the dome. If one or more do,
readjust the arm(s) until they are clear of the dome.

2. Reattach the dome by putting it in place, turning clockwise until it
locks, and then tightening the locking screws.

NVT INSTRUCTIONS

UNSHIELDED TWISTED P AIR
VIDEO WIRING

NOTE: The customer must purchase the Video Transceiver from
NVT. Part numbers are:

• NV-212A (500 ft.)
* NV-213A or NV-213A-M (1000 ft.)

• NV-652R, NV-862R, or NV-1662R (3000 ft.)

The cameras included in the Q-View™ series have the option of
transmitting video signals to NVT receivers via unshielded twisted
pair cable. You must purchase the receiver separately. Instructions for
connecting the receiver end of the the unshielded twisted pair cable
will be included with the NVT receiver. Following are instructions for
connecting the unshielded twisted pair cables to the RJ45 (Cat. 5)
cable running outside your housing.

1. Video for all four cameras is contained in the one RJ45 (Cat. 5)
cable. An RJ45 female coupling is provided so that all connections
can be made with an RJ45 connector. The following is the wiring
diagram for the four twisted pair wires that are included with the
Cat. 5 cable.

PIN WIRE COLOR CAMERA NUMBER

1 White/Green Camera 1 +
2 Green Camera 1 ­ 3 White/Orange Camera 2 +
6 Orange Camera 2 ­ 5 White/Blue Camera 3 +
4 Blue Camera 3 ­ 7 White/Brown Camera 4 +
8 Brown Camera 4 -

2. Connect the other end of the unshielded twisted pair cable to the
NVT receiver.

CAUTION: The unshielded twisted pair video signal is polarity
dependent. The positive video wire for each camera
MUST be connnected to the postitive terminal on the
NVT receiver, and negative MUST be connected to
negative.

3. When using unshielded twisted pair cable you DO NOT need the
BNC connector. All four BNC connectors are provided inside the
housing for testing purposes. Be sure that there is no video con­ nection other than the unshielded twisted pair cable.

Wiring Notes

Wire — What to DO

1. DO use point-to-point Unshielded Twisted Pair wire, gauge 24 or
thicker, stranded or solid, Category 2, 3, 4, or 5.

2. The video signal may co-exist in the same wire bundle as other
video, telephone, data, control signals, or low-voltage power. It
is also OK to run NVT video signals in or near electromagnetic
fields (in accordance with National Electrical Code, local, or other
local safety requirements).

3. DO measure the wire distance. Use only transceivers that are
designed for that distance.

4. DO make sure the pair of wires carrying the video signal is sent
as a twisted pair (e.g. the blue-white/white-blue wires twisted
together as a pair), not a “split-pair” (e.g. blue-white conductor,
part of one pair/orange-white conductor, part of another pair).

Wire — What NOT to DO

1. DO NOT USE SHIELDED TWISTED PAIR WIRE. It will severely
degrade the distance performance. Shor t runs may be used with
some signal degradation (for example elevator traveler cables).
Multi-pair wire with an overall shield is OK.

2. DO NOT USE UN-TWISTED WIRE. It will reduce the NVT
product’s inherent interference immunity.

3. DO NOT allow your installation to have “bridge-taps”, loading
coils, talk-battery, or MOV type protectors. Bridge-taps are where
a twisted pair is connected to two twisted pairs (such as an
extension phone at home). Bridge-taps cause reflections as the
signal propagates, resulting in “ghosts” in the video image, and
are to be avoided.

4. If the phone company is providing the cable runs between
buildings, make sure it’s “dry copper” i.e. it should have none
of the following: dial-tone, 48 volts, loading coils, bridge-taps,
switching, or long paths to the phone company’s central office
and back.

5. Due to near-end crosstalk, DO NOT send a transmit and a
receive signal in the same wire bundle. Exceptions: Less than
1,000 ft (300m), or Category 5 cable, up to 2,000 ft (600m) are
OK.

6. DO NOT send “Up-the-Coax” Pan/Tilt/Zoom signals through
active (amplified) NVT transceivers.

7. For safety, never put NVT signals in the same conduit as

!

high-voltage wiring.

8. WARNING— to reduce a risk of fire or electrical shock, do

!

not expose this product to rain or moisture.

Measure your wire distance

Note: All NVT quoted distance specifications include any coax in the
run. It is recommended that the wire distance be measured to ensure
that the capability of the NVT product is correct.

Wire resistance may be measured with an ohm-meter by shorting
the two conductors together at the far end, and measuring the loop­resistance out and back. Compare your readings with the char ts in
the next column.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience problems with the camera picture please check
these simple troubleshooting procedures for possible solutions before
calling technical support.

STATIONARY OR SCROLLING HORIZONTAL
LINES ON SCREEN

GROUND LOOPS
Generally a horizontal line on screen, whether moving or stationary,
means you have a ground loop problem. The video shield should
only be connected to ground through the monitor or other electronic
equipment that uses the video signal. Connecting the video shield to
ground at the camera will create a ground loop, which may interfere
with the video signal (See Figure A). This should not damage the
camera, but the video signal may become unusable. A ground loop
problem will cause a dark horizontal bar to slowly “scroll" through the
picture. To solve this problem, remove all ground connections from the
video connection EXCEPT for the ground at the terminating end of
the video signal.

The video termination should be a 75-ohm impedance, standard in
monitors and other video equipment. If the video signal goes to more
than one piece of equipment, a monitor and multiplexer input for
instance, insure that one and only one piece of equipment terminates
the video signal with 75 ohms; otherwise the image will be degraded
and may appear to be unusually dim.

PICTURE IS CLEAR, LOW OR NO COLOR;
PICTURE IS DARK OR GRAINY IN GOOD
LIGHTING CONDITIONS

The auto iris lens is set at the factory. If you experience video
too light or dark you can manually adjust using the auto iris
adjustment screw.

If there is low or no color the Auto Iris is too open, if the picture is
dark or grainy in good conditions the Auto Iris is too closed.

To adjust the auto iris lens, fi rst locate the AUTO IRIS ADJUSTMENT
SCREW on the camera PC board. Using a small insulated
screwdriver (blade width of from 1/16" to 3/32"), adjust the control.
Turning the control CLOCKWISE opens the iris, making the image
brighter.
Turning the control COUNTER CLOCKWISE closes the iris, making
the image darker.

AUTOMATIC BROWN OUT FEATURE

The camera includes an automatic brown out feature which is acti­vated whenever the incoming voltage drops below 10 VAC or VDC.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON AUTO IRIS ADJUSTMENT:

WHEN ADJUSTING, USE A SMALL, INSULATED SCREW­DRIVER. The auto iris adjustments are very sensitive. Use

gentle pressure when turning. To adjust, turn either clock-wise or
counter-clockwise no more than one degree at a time. Check the
monitor after each turn to determine is the desired brightness and
color have been obtained. When the adjustment is satisfactory,
place a hand over the lens to block out all light. Quickly remove
the hand to be sure the iris reacts.

NVT TROUBLESHOOTING

If you are experiencing problems, attempt to simplify your setup. Test
each cable segment separately. For example, test the camera and
monitor together without the other equipment. Then add in the NVT
transceivers, back-to-back. Test each segment of a long cable-run
independently. Attempt to isolate the problem.

Below are problems that may be encountered. If the suggestions below
are not helpful, or the recommendations are not effective, please call
NVT’s customer support. NVT customer support can be reached 8:00
AM to 5:30 PM PST at [phone] or at (+1) [phone].

FAINT OR BLURRY PICTURE; LITTLE OR NO COLOR

Possible causes include:

1. Shielded twisted-pair cable. Verify that the wire is unshielded
twisted-pair cable. Multi-pair cable with an overall shield is OK.

2. Longer wire distance than expected. Be sure to include any coax
cable that’s part of this distance. Verify end-to-end connectivity
with an ohm meter. Measure the distance by disconnecting the
transceivers, shorting the far end, reading the loop’s resistance
at the near end. See above for ohm vs. distance ratings. If
necessary, replace transceivers with correct models specified for
this distance.

3. Incorrect distance equalization setting. Adjust the equalization
controls) with a mini screwdriver (NV-652R, NV-862R or the NV­1662R). If the transmitter is an NV-653T, verify correct equalization
switch setting.

4. Poor connection at a punch-block, splice, or coax cable. Re-check
using the method described in #2 above, or use a wire test set.

5. Short between conductors of the twisted-pair. Use an ohm meter to
locate the short.

6. Transient protection devices employing metal-oxide varistors. Use
carbon blocks, gas-discharge tubes, or NVT transceivers w

ith built-

in protection.

7. Check the camera. Are the focus and iris set correctly? Verify with
portable monitor.

EXTREMELY FAINT PICTURE

Only faint shadows of the original picture are visible. One of the
twisted pair conductors is open or the wires are shorted together.
Check with an ohm meter.

OVER-SATURATED COLORS; HIGH CONTRAST GRAINY
PICTURE; TOO BRIGHT, TORN PICTURE

Adjust the distance equalization as necessary. Verify that the monitor
has a 75 termination, not in “loop-through”.

WON'T SYNC; WIDE, WHITE JAGGED AREAS

Looks like a scrambled Cable TV signal. Check polarity.

WON'T SYNC; TORN PICTURE

1. Make sure that you are using unshielded twisted pair wire.

2. Check distance equalization settings.

3. For installations with passive (non-amplified) transceivers at both
ends, check for ground loops. This may be done with an AC
Voltmeter, as shown below:

AC Voltmeter

If the voltage is greater than 1/2 volt, use an amplified receiver,
such as the NV-652R, NV-862R, or NV-1662R.

Alternately, remove the ground at one end (usually at the camera
end). Be sure that floating the camera conforms to local/regional
and National Electrical Codes.

4. Check for crosstalk from a second video path. Disconnect all other
video sources. If the problem goes away, check for a split-pair or
un-twisted wire.

FAINT STRIPES GLIDING UP OR DOWN THE SCREEN

These are caused by crosstalk from a second video path, or with
ground-loops in installations employing passive models at both ends.

1. To identify, disconnect all other video signals temporarily. If the
interference goes away, check the wire to make sure the signal is
traveling through a twisted pair.

Is two-way video being sent more
than 1,000 ft (300m) over Category 2 or 3 wire? If so, the send
and receive signals may need to go in separate jac keted cables, or
upgrade to Category 5 wire.

2. Next, check for ground loops. See #3 above.

NO POWER LIGHT ON THE NVT UNIT

Check the blue “power” LED on powered NVT units. If the light is not
on, the receiver is not getting power. Re-check the power source and
connections.

If the green LED is on but the power LED is off, check that the power
supply is floating. Grounding one side of the power input may cause
this condition.

NO GREEN LIGHT, NO VIDEO

The NV-652R, NV-862R or NV-1662R series receiver/hub is not
detecting a video signal. There is an open or shorted connection.
Use a multimeter to locate the fault.

GHOSTS

Faint shadows of the original signal shifted to the right. This is
caused by an impedance mismatch along the wire. Verify that the
monitor is terminated with 75 (not in “loop-through”.) Check that all
wire is unshielded twisted pair. The high-frequency wire impedance
should be 100. Check for bridge-taps (see below) either by inspecting
wiring closet connections, or, if available, using a “Time-Domain
Reflectometer” (T.D.R.), sometimes called a “cable tester”.

If the faint shadows are not copies of the original picture, but from the
picture of some other camera, check for crosstalk:

Is any portion of the wire un-twisted?
Are the signals from two cameras split between two pairs?
Is there a short between a conductor of one signal and a conductor

of another?

CABLE AND POWER GUIDELINES

This chart shows the proper current needed for power supplies for Q-View Series cameras. Use Class 2 Power only. Input voltage must be
24 VA C/VDC .

CAMERAS VOLTAGE CURRENT POWER
1 24 VAC/VDC 102mA 2.5W
2 24 VAC/VDC 210mA 5W
3 24 VAC/VDC 331mA 7.9W
4 24 VAC/VDC 487mA 10.9W

Use the formula below to select the correct power supply for cameras connected in parallel (positive to positive, negative to negative):

Total current for a 24 VAC system:
TOTAL CURRENT = (202mA x total number of cameras) Example: 202mA x 5 total cameras = 1010mA
Note: 202mA is camera plus power supply
