The VideoLabs’ Wireless Audio/Video System transmits live video through the air instead of hard wires, allowing greater flexibility and positioning of all VideoLabs cameras. Cameras can now be used in any location without running a video cable from the camera to the monitor. The wireless connection can extend over 700 feet.
In the Box:
The following items are included in the VideoLabs Wireless Audio/Video System
• Transmitter
• Receiver
• 2 power supplies
• Y – power cable
• S-Video(M) to Composite(M) adapter cable (pigtail adapter)
Setup:
Transmitter
The camera outputs are connected to the transmitter inputs.
1. Connect the audio outputs
of the camera to the left (white) and right (red) audio inputs of the transmitter. If there is only one audio output on the camera, connect it to either audio input.
2. Use the included pigtail adapter to connect the s-video output to the Video
input of the transmitter. If your camera does not have a female s-video jack, use the pigtail adaptor included with your camera, or call VideoLabs customer service to buy a compact connection cable.

There are four possible channels for the wireless A/V system. Any of the four can be used, but the receiver must be on the same channel as the transmitter to receive the audio and video. The channel selector is on the side of the receiver. The channel selector for the transmitter is under the plastic cap. Only one of the switches should be in the ON position at a time, the rest should be OFF. The switch that is in the ON position is the selected channel.
The wireless transmission is omni directional, however best results may be obtained when the transmitter and receiver are facing each other. Obstructions such as walls and floors may decrease the maximum distance between the receiver and transmitter. Interference and noise may be noticed when other transmitters are in use, such as cordless phones, microwaves, aircraft radar, etc. If noise is present, try relocating the devices or changing the channel on the transmitter and receiver.
Care and Cleaning:
• Do not attempt to take the units apart. There are no user serviceable
components inside
• Keep the units away from food and liquid
• Do not operate or store units at temperatures above 1040 F (400 C) or below 32
0
F (00 C)
• Do not operate or store units in high humidity, dusty environments, inclement
weather, or under severe vibration
• Clean exterior of the units by wiping with a clean, damp cloth; do not use any
abrasive chemicals
