What is this equipment for?

The Video Sender VS 360/460 permits the relay of an Audio-Video signal from your main set-up to a second television set located in another room and equipped with a

scart connection (or RCA/Cinch). The main set-up is the place in which you have en chosen to install the majority of your equipment (television set, video recorder, satellite receiver, DVD player,..) you can operate the units from the room with the

second television set by using their remote controls, or with a universal remote control.

You can play and hear music if you connect the transmitter to a suitable outlet (AUDIO OUT), and the receiver to an amplifier (AUDIO IN) placed in another room. For the link-up you will need to obtain 1 cinch/cinch cable (not supplied with equipment).

If you already have a Thomson plasma screen monitor or video projector, the Video Sender will ease your placing of these items where you most want them to be, thanks to eliminating all problems related to long cable runs.

Installation of transmitter

1. Place the transmitter (1) near the source equipment (VCR player, DVD player, etc.) from which you want to transmit video or audio output, and connect it with the two cords (2 A and 2 B) making sure you respect the color coding of the 3 cinch plugs (red and white for audio, yellow for video). Connect the TV set to a suitable outlet from the VCR player or DVD player (AV1).

Obtain a (non-supplied) SCART-TV set connector and connect the TV set to the 2B adapter already connected to the VCR player or DVD player as shown on Page 5 (see item marked * on Page 5).

2. Carefully extend the antenna of the transmitter (1) and orient it towards the room where your second TV set (TV2) is located. Turn on (position ON) the transmitter and receiver, using the ON/OFF switch located on its lower side. Place the channel selectors of the transmitter and the receiver on the same channel (same letter).

3. Fit the lead (4) following these stages:

-connect the jack plug to the IR EXTEND socket,

-unwind the lead and place one cell near the infrared window of the unit to be operated (video recorder or other),

-after installing the receiver (see Pages 6 and 7), ask someone to use the remote control of that equipment item to be controlled from the room where the second (TV2) is located,

-by moving the cell around in front of the unit to be operated you will find the location that permits its control from the other room. You must fix the cell in that position. Usually, this will be a more or less large, transparent area located on the front of the unit.

4. Remove the protective self-adhesive film from the infrared cell of cord (4) and affix it to the infrared-sensitive panel of the equipment to be remote controlled. The cordon has 3 cells in order to let you play video and audio from 3 equipment items connected to the (TV1) set (see Diagram 2 on Page 10).

5. Fit the mains supply lead (3) to the transmitter and plug it into a 220/240 V ~ 50 Hz mains power supply.

Installation of receiver

1. Place the receiver (5) on, or near, the second television set.

2. Connect the receiver (5) to the second television set using the lead (6) following the same instructions as for the transmitter.

3. Extend the antenna on the receiver (5) and orient it toward the main TV set (TV1).

4. Fit the mains supply lead (7) to the receiver and plug it into a 220/240 V ~ 50 Hz mains power supply.

!THE ANTENNA allows you to transmit and receive audio and video signals over a maximum range of 30 meters in free air environments. Inside a typical lodgment the range will be less because of signal attenuation by building material absorption.

!THE FLEXIBLE ANTENNA permits the control of the unit whose pictures you wish to see in the room containing the second television set (TV2).

!THE POWER SUPPLY plug fitted to the transmitter (1) is not the same as the one fitted to the receiver (7).

Relay of pictures from several units

If you have several equipment items (VCR player, satellite receiver, DVD player, etc.) in your main equipment room and want to transmit and receive audio and video

signals to a second TV set, connect your equipment items as shown in the Diagrams en on following pages. Usually, the units are connected in series, the last unit having a

free scart connection that you can use for the connection of the transmitter.

!These diagrams represent some connection possibilities the operation of which depends on the type of unit, its sockets and the signals it produces. There exist other connections that you might perhaps wish to try if diagrams 1 to 3 here are not satisfactory. If this is the case, ask your dealer for assistance.

!As a general rule, remember to switch off units not in use. Also, refer to the manufacturers’ instructions to see if there are any particularities regarding connection or use. Certain units may need to have their input scart connection “programmed”.

!In all cases the transmitter must be connected to a scart connection that produces an AudioVideo signal Out. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for confirmation of this.

A quoi sert cet appareil ?

Le Video Sender VS 360/460 permet de diffuser un signal Audio-Video à partir de votre installation principale vers un second téléviseur installé dans une autre pièce et équipé d’une prise péritélévision (ou RCA/Cinch). L’installation principale est l’endroit où vous avez regroupé la plupart de vos appareils (téléviseur,

magnétoscope, récepteur satellite, lecteur DVD, ...). Vous pourrez commander les fr appareils depuis la pièce où se trouve le second téléviseur à l’aide de leurs télécommandes, ou avec une télécommande universelle.

La diffusion de musique est possible si vous raccordez l’émetteur à une source (AUDIO OUT) et le récepteur à un amplificateur (AUDIO IN) dans une autre pièce. Dans ce cas vous devrez vous procurer 1 câble cinch / cinch non fourni.

Si vous possédez un moniteur plasma ou un projecteur vidéo Thomson, le Video Sender vous facilitera leur implantation à l’endroit désiré grâce à l’élimination des problèmes liés à la longueur des câbles de connexions.
