CHAPTER 1 Overview
1.1 Product
The SmartSight™ 1000 is a professional video transmission product designed for the
CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) market. It offers a secure (encrypted using a Wired
Equivalent Privacy algorithm) signal 100 times more robust to interference than
conventional AM/FM analog systems. The system consists of a video transmitter
(S1000-TX) and a video receiver (S1000-RX).
1.2 Equipment
Your S1000 shipment should contain the following items:
• 2 - S1000 or S1000-24VAC modules (S1000-TX & S1000-RX)
• 2 - wall mounting bracket set
• 2 cable assemblies (P/N S1000-CA-9P)
• User’s manual.
The shipment may also contain the following options:
• 1 or 2 16 dBi gain antennas (S1000-PA)
• 1 or 2 15 VDC external power supply (S1000-PS)
• 1 or 2 Pole mount bracket sets (S1000-PM)
• 1 or 2 Junction Box with 24 VAC input (S1000-JB).
• 1 or 2 optional alarm/audio cable assemblies (P/N S1000-CA-8P)
___________________________________________________________________
If you have not ordered a power supply option (S1000-PS or S1000-JB) you will need to
supply a 12-15 VDC power supply to each module (or 24 VAC if you have ordered the
S1000-24VAC system). We recommend using a power supply with a capacity of 8 watts or
more.
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
Check the material against the packing list to make sure you have received everything. If
something is missing or if you discover shipping damage, please contact your dealer or
distributor.

CHAPTER 2 S1000 system setup guide
The S1000 is to be professionally installed. The guidelines in the following subsections
will assist the installer in cabling and installing the Microflex.
2.1 External module description
The S1000 (Transmitter) is labeled “Tx” and the S1000 (Receiver) is labeled “Rx”.

The S1000 electronics are enclosed in a weather-tight cast aluminum module. All
cable entries are mounted on the underside of the module to maintain its weathertight properties. The front panel of the S1000 integrates one bi-color visual indicator
that indicates the module operational state.

2.2 Applications
The current software version of the S1000 supports operation in point-to-point.
Future software upgrades will support transmission of video to multiple receivers as
well as retransmission of signal in none-line-of-sight application.
The S1000 supports 3 non-overlapping channels (channels 1, 6 and 11) or
operation of 3 simultaneous links within the same location. It is also possible to
support up to 6 links simultaneously with each of the six receivers installed at the
same location. However, this requires some site planning (see CHAPTER 4).
In most case, you will need to program a unique SSID (security ID) for each radio
system (see 4.2.4 to learn how to configure each module using a computer). As an
example, for 3 S1000 systems, 3 individual SSID are required. The table below
shows the configuration applied to each module:
Module Configured Channel Configured SSID
S1000-TX 1 1 SYSTEMA
S1000-RX 1 1 SYSTEMA
S1000-TX 2 6 SYSTEMB
S1000-RX 2 6 SYSTEMB
S1000-TX 3 11 SYSTEMC
S1000-RX 3 11 SYSTEMC

CHAPTER 3 S1000 System Configuration and Installation
3.1 S1000 system configuration
Your S1000 system is configured to operate right out of the box with the most
popular dome data port configurations (4800 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit).
For added security, we recommend you change the SSID to your own secret SSID
and activate the WEP encryption and change the WEP key to your secret WEP key
before installing the system.
STEP 1 Initial Configuration
• Unpack the modules and set them side by side on a desk or table.
• Unpack the 2 cable assemblies (P/N S1000-CA-9P) and connect them to the
module (you must feel a positive click for the cable assembly connector to be
properly installed on the module)
• Connect the S1000-TX cable assembly DB-9 to a computer (if the DB9 has
been removed, refer to the table below to connect conductors properly) and
power the module (the STATUS LED should turn steady green and then
flashing green under normal operation; see the next section to understand
how this LED behaves under different operation conditions)

NOTE: Power the unit via the cable assembly RED & BLACK conductor
pair. The RED conductor is for 12 VDC input (or 24VAC if this
option was purchased) and the BLACK conductor is for the power
GROUND (or 24 VAC return if this option was selected).

• Configure the S1000-TX SSID, WEP encryption key (if desired), radio
channel and serial port parameters (if required) via the computer (see 4.2.4
for configuration procedure)
• Connect the S1000-RX cable assembly DB-9 to the computer and power the
module (the STATUS LED should turn steady green under normal operation;
see the next section to understand how this LED behaves under different
operation conditions).
• Configure the S1000-RX parameters to the SAME parameters configured on
the S1000-TX
• You have completed the S1000 initial configuration. The system can now be
installed outdoors.
___________________________________________________________________
The S1000 integrates a single serial port. This port is used for both system configuration and data
communications (PTZ, access control or other). The serial port on the S1000 automatically detects
if it is connected to a computer (RS-232 serial port) or an RS-422 serial device. The user does not
have to configure the serial port for RS-232 or RS-422/485 operation or for configuration or data
communications.
__________________________________________________________________
3.2 Understanding the status led
The STATUS LED is a bi-color (GREEN-RED) LED which provides detailed
information on the system depending on whether the system is powering up, in
operation or the software is being updated.
Power-up sequence:
• Flashing Red (module is powering up)
• Steady Green (Application is started).
___________________________________________________________________
In very cold weather, the powering up sequence may take several minutes (up to 15 minutes at –
30°C). This is because the module must reach a certain internal temperature before powering up all
the electronics.
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
The following power-up conditions are abnormal:
1) LED not lit: Check the power supply and cabling, if power is available and the LED
stays off, call SmartSight technical support to obtain an RMA authorization.
2) Steady RED LED: There is an internal module error that prevents the unit from
