AAO1501971-TVideo Sender

OWNER'S MANUAL Video Sender AUDIO/VIDEO EXTENDER SYSTEM MODEL 15-1971 (INCLUDES 15-1971T, TRANSMITTER AND 15-1971R, RECEIVER, PLUS TWO PLUG -IN POWER SUPPLIES, AND ALL REQUIRED CONNECTING CABLES) 2 VK30A -6/98 INTRODUCTION Your Wireless Video Sender kit consists of a transmitter base unit which connects to your DSS receiver, and a receiver unit which connects to the TV in another room. The Video Sender Transmitter converts the A/V signal from your DSS into a radio signal and transmits it (even through walls) to the Video Sender Receiver unit. The Video Sender Receiver converts the signals back to A/V signals which are fed through a cable to your TV's A/V input jacks. When used with plug 'n power universal remotes your Video Sender also allows you to operate your DSS while watching it in another room. By purchasing an optional Remote Control Extender (Cat. No. 15-1959) can control other A/V products such as VCRs, Cable Boxes, etc. while watching a TV in another room. There are just a few simple steps to follow to hook up your Video Sender kit to a DSS, VCR or Cable Box. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture. 3 VK30A - 6/98 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1.Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the product is operated. 2.Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference. 3.Heed Warnings - All warnings on the product and in the operating instructions should be adhered to. 4.Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed. 5.Cleaning - Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning.

310 Mhz Superregenerative Receiver Operational Description The 310 MHz receiver receives a pulsed 310 MHz RF signal from a universal RCA remote control such as the model RCSAT (FCC ID: B4SRCSAT2). The signal is then converted to an Infrared format and sent to the IR extender jack on the Audio/Video Sender. A cable can then be attached to a RCA DSS receiver at the IR control Input. This signal is used to remotely change channels on some RCA DSS receivers.

SIGNPRINT Thomas J. Schneider TITLE EMC Test Engineer REPORT No. R-7684-3 Test Procedures Used The test procedures used for all testing follow the guidelines specified in the applicable FCC specification and general industry practices. Although test procedures may sometimes have to be modified to address the needs of specific test samples, the following forms the basis for all testing programs: Conducted Emissions - All testing was performed with the test sample placed 80cm above a 2.5 x 3M ground plane and 1 meter from any other grounded surface. The power cord of the test sample was connected to the Line Impedance Stabilization Networks, which in turn, had their cases mounted to the ground plane. With the equipment connected as stated, an EMI meter or spectrum analyzer was connected to the LISN and the conducted emissions were measured over the frequency range of 450KHz to 30MHz, in turn on each of the input power leads. Care was taken during testing to relocate all system components and cabling in an effort to maximize the emissions from the EUT. Radiated Emissions - Radiated emissions testing was performed on an FCC listed 3 meter open field test site over the frequency range of 30MHz to 2000MHz. Prior to open field testing, pre-scan testing was performed inside of a shielded enclosure in order to obtain a spectrum signature of the unit and to use the data obtained as a guideline for open field testing. When the test sample is taken to the open field tests site, it is placed on a one meter high wooden turntable. A spectrum analyzer or EMI meter is then connected to either the biconical or log periodic anenna, depending on frequency range being scanned. The antenna is mounted on a remote controlled four meter antenna mast. The frequency range was then scanned and each measurement taken was maximized by performing the following: (1) Raising and lowering the measurement antenna. (2) Rotating the measurement antenna to both the horizontal and vertical polarizations. (3) Tuning the measurement antenna to the frequency of measurement. (4) Rotating the test sample, and (5) Relocating all interconnecting and input power cables. In the event that testing was extended above or below the frequency range of 30MHz to 1000MHz, loop antennas were used for all measurements below 30MHz and horn antennas were used for all measurements above 1000MHz.
