4.0 INSTALLATION
4.1 VIDEO AND POWER CONNECTIONS
The following instructions are for use with the
PELCO Coaxitron System 2000.
1. Refer to Figure 1. The output port labeled
“INPUT FROM RECEIVER” of the Coaxitron
System 2000 transmitter should be connected
to the BNC connector indicated on the label as
“DATA IN/VIDEO OUT” of the WLV500TX
control link transmitter. The video signal that
originated from the WLV1000RX wireless
video receiver (or directly from a camera or
other video source) should be connected to the
BNC connector labeled “VIDEO IN” of the
WLV500TX. The port labeled “OUTPUT TO
MONITOR” of the Coaxitron System 2000
transmitter should be connected to a video
monitor.
2. The port labeled “OUT” of the Coaxitron Sys-
tem 2000 receiver should be connected to the
BNC connector labeled “DATA OUT” of the
WLV500RX control link receiver.

3. The wall mounted power supplies (15 VDC)
included in the system should be connected to
the power strips of each unit labeled “11-16
V”. The striped lead with a red connector
should be connected to the positive “+” terminal and the ground lead with the black connector should be connected to the negative “–”
terminal. The power supplies should then be
plugged into a 120 volt (AC) power outlet.
