arms to the desired viewing angle. Once you've nished, put the dome back in place

and check to be sure none of the cameras touch the dome. If one or more do, readjust

the arm(s) until they are clear of the dome.

2. Reattach the dome by putting it in place, turning clockwise until it locks, and then

tightening the locking screws.

NVT INSTRUCTIONS

The cameras included in the Q-View™ series have the option of transmitting video

signals to NVT receivers via unshielded twisted pair cable. You must purchase the

receiver separately. Instructions for connecting the receiver end of the unshielded

twisted pair cable will be included with the NVT receiver. Following are instructions

for connecting the unshielded twisted pair cables to the RJ45 (Cat. 5) cable running

outside your housing.

UNSHIELDED TWISTED PAIR

VIDEO WIRING

1. Video for all four cameras is contained in the one RJ45 (Cat. 5) cable. An RJ45

female coupling is provided so that all connections can be made with an RJ45

connector. The following is the wiring diagram for the four twisted pair wires that are

included with the Cat. 5 cable.

2. Connect the other end of the unshielded twisted pair cable to the NVT receiver.

CAUTION: The unshielded twisted pair video signal is polarity dependent. The positive

video wire for each camera MUST be connected to the positive terminal on the NVT

receiver, and negative MUST be connected to negative.

3. When using unshielded twisted pair cable you DO NOT need the BNC connector. All

four BNC connectors are provided inside the housing for testing purposes. Be sure that

there is no video connection other than the unshielded twisted pair cable.

NOTE: The customer must purchase the Video Transceiver from

NVT. Part numbers are:

• NV-212A (500 ft.)

* NV-213A or NV-213A-M (1000 ft.)

• NV-652R, NV-862R, or NV-1662R (3000 ft.)

Wiring Notes

Wire — What to DO

1. DO use point-to-point Unshielded Twisted Pair wire, gauge 24 or thicker, stranded

or solid, Category 2, 3, 4, or 5.

2. The video signal may co-exist in the same wire bundle as other video, telephone,

data, control signals, or low-voltage power. It is also OK to run NVT video signals in

or near electromagnetic fields (in accordance with National Electrical Code, local,

or other local safety requirements).

3. DO measure the wire distance. Use only transceivers that are designed for that

distance.

4. DO make sure the pair of wires carrying the video signal is sent as a twisted pair

(e.g. the blue-white/white-blue wires twisted together as a pair), not a “split-

pair” (e.g. blue-white conductor, part of one pair/orange-white conductor, part

of another pair).

Wire — What NOT to DO

1. DO NOT USE SHIELDED TWISTED PAIR WIRE. It will severely degrade the

distance performance. Short runs may be used with some signal degradation (for

example elevator traveler cables). Multi-pair wire with an overall shield is OK.

2. DO NOT USE UN-TWISTED WIRE. It will reduce the NVT product’s inherent

interference immunity.

3. DO NOT allow your installation to have “bridge-taps”, loading coils, talk-battery,

or MOV type protectors. Bridge-taps are where a twisted pair is connected to two

twisted pairs (such as an extension phone at home). Bridge-taps cause reflections

as the signal propagates, resulting in “ghosts” in the video image, and are to be

avoided.

4. If the phone company is providing the cable runs between buildings, make sure

it’s “dry copper” i.e. it should have none of the following: dial-tone, 48 volts, loading

coils, bridge-taps, switching, or long paths to the phone company’s central office and

back.

5. Due to near-end crosstalk, DO NOT send a transmit and a receive signal in the

same wire bundle. Exceptions: Less than 1,000 ft (300m), or Category 5 cable, up to

2,000 ft (600m) are OK.

6. DO NOT send “Up-the-Coax” Pan/Tilt/Zoom signals through active (amplified)

NVT transceivers.

Measure your wire distance

Note: All NVT quoted distance specifications include any coax in the run. It is

recommended that the wire distance be measured to ensure that the capability of the

NVT product is correct.

Wire resistance may be measured with an ohm-meter by shorting the two conductors

together at the far end, and measuring the loop-resistance out and back. Compare

your readings with the charts in the next column.

7. For safety, never put NVT signals in the same conduit as high-voltage

wiring.

8. WARNING — to reduce a risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose

this product to rain or moisture.

NVT TROUBLESHOOTING

If you are experiencing problems, attempt to simplify your setup. Test each cable

segment separately. For example, test the camera and monitor together without the

other equipment. Then add in the NVT transceivers, back-to-back. Test each segment

of a long cable-run independently. Attempt to isolate the problem.

Below are problems that may be encountered. If the suggestions below are not helpful,

or the recommendations are not effective, please call NVT’s customer support. NVT

customer support can be reached 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM PST at (800) 959-9870 or at

(+1) (650) 562-0600.

FAINT OR BLURRY PICTURE; LITTLE OR NO COLOR

Possible causes include:

1. Shielded twisted-pair cable. Verify that the wire is unshielded twisted-pair cable.

Multi-pair cable with an overall shield is OK.

2. Longer wire distance than expected. Be sure to include any coax cable that’s part of

this distance. Verify end-to-end connectivity with an ohm meter. Measure the distance

by disconnecting the transceivers, shorting the far end, reading the loop’s resistance

at the near end. See above for ohm vs. distance ratings. If necessary, replace

transceivers with correct models specified for this distance.

3. Incorrect distance equalization setting. Adjust the equalization controls) with a mini

screwdriver (NV-652R, NV-862R or the NV-1662R). If the transmitter is an NV-653T,

verify correct equalization switch setting.

4. Poor connection at a punch-block, splice, or coax cable. Re-check using the

method described in #2 above, or use a wire test set.

5. Short between conductors of the twisted-pair. Use an ohm meter to locate the short.

6. Transient protection devices employing metal-oxide varistors. Use carbon blocks,

gas-discharge tubes, or NVT transceivers w

ith built-in protection.

7. Check the camera. Are the focus and iris set correctly? Verify with portable monitor.

EXTREMELY FAINT PICTURE

Only faint shadows of the original picture are visible. One of the twisted pair conductors

is open or the wires are shorted together. Check with an ohm meter.

OVER-SATURATED COLORS; HIGH CONTRAST GRAINY PICTURE; TOO BRIGHT,

TORN PICTURE

Adjust the distance equalization as necessary. Verify that the monitor has a 75

termination, not in “loop-through”.

WON'T SYNC; WIDE, WHITE JAGGED AREAS

Looks like a scrambled Cable TV signal. Check polarity.

WON'T SYNC; TORN PICTURE

1. Make sure that you are using unshielded twisted pair wire.

2. Check distance equalization settings.

3. For installations with passive (non-amplified) transceivers at both ends, check for

ground loops. This may be done with an AC Voltmeter, as shown below:

If the voltage is greater than 1/2 volt, use an amplified receiver, such as the NV-652R,

NV-862R, or NV-1662R.

Alternately, remove the ground at one end (usually at the camera end). Be sure that

floating the camera conforms to local/regional and National Electrical Codes.

4. Check for crosstalk from a second video path. Disconnect all other video sources.

If the problem goes away, check for a split-pair or un-twisted wire.

These are caused by crosstalk from a second video path, or with ground-loops in

installations employing passive models at both ends.

1. To identify, disconnect all other video signals temporarily. If the interference goes

away, check the wire to make sure the signal is traveling through a twisted pair. Is

two-way video being sent more than 1,000 ft (300m) over Category 2 or 3 wire? If so,

the send and receive signals may need to go in separate jacketed cables, or upgrade

to Category 5 wire.

2. Next, check for ground loops. See #3 above.

NO POWER LIGHT ON THE NVT UNIT

Check the blue “power” LED on powered NVT units. If the light is not on, the receiver

is not getting power. Re-check the power source and connections.

If the green LED is on but the power LED is off, check that the power supply is floating.

Grounding one side of the power input may cause this condition.

NO GREEN LIGHT, NO VIDEO

The NV-652R, NV-862R or NV-1662R series receiver/hub is not detecting a video

signal. There is an open or shorted connection. Use a multimeter to locate the fault.

GHOSTS

Faint shadows of the original signal shifted to the right. This is caused by an

impedance mismatch along the wire. Verify that the monitor is terminated with 75 (not

in “loop-through”.) Check that all wire is unshielded twisted pair. The high-frequency

wire impedance should be 100. Check for bridge-taps (see below) either by inspecting

wiring closet connections, or, if available, using a “Time-Domain Reflectometer”

(T.D.R.), sometimes called a “cable tester”.

If the faint shadows are not copies of the original picture, but from the picture of some

other camera, check for crosstalk:

Is any portion of the wire un-twisted?

Are the signals from two cameras split between two pairs?

Is there a short between a conductor of one signal and a conductor of another?

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience problems with the camera picture please check these simple

troubleshooting procedures for possible solutions before calling technical support.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have removed the ground loop and the horizontal line still

remains on screen call Moog Videolarm technical support for further information.

GROUND LOOPS

Generally a horizontal line on screen, whether moving or stationary, means you have

a ground loop problem. The video shield should only be connected to ground through

the monitor or other electronic equipment that uses the video signal. Connecting the

video shield to ground at the camera will create a ground loop, which may interfere

with the video signal (See Figure A). This should not damage the camera, but the

video signal may become unusable. A ground loop problem will cause a dark horizontal

bar to slowly “scroll" through the picture. To solve this problem, remove all ground

connections from the video connection EXCEPT for the ground at the terminating

end of the video signal.

The video termination should be a 75-ohm impedance, standard in monitors

and other video equipment. If the video signal goes to more than one piece of

equipment, a monitor and multiplexer input for instance, insure that one and only

one piece of equipment terminates the video signal with 75 ohms; otherwise the

image will be degraded and may appear to be unusually dim.

PICTURE IS CLEAR, LOW OR NO COLOR;

PICTURE IS DARK OR GRAINY IN GOOD

LIGHTING CONDITIONS

The auto iris lens is set at the factory. If you experience video too light or dark you can

manually adjust using the auto iris adjustment screw.

If there is low or no color the Auto Iris is too open, if the picture is dark or grainy in

good conditions the Auto Iris is too closed.

To adjust the auto iris lens, rst locate the AUTO IRIS ADJUSTMENT SCREW on the

camera PC board. Using a small insulated screwdriver (blade width of from 1/16" to

3/32"), adjust the control.

Turning the control CLOCKWISE opens the iris, making the image brighter.

Turning the control COUNTER CLOCKWISE closes the iris, making the image darker.

Figure D

AUTOMATIC BROWN OUT FEATURE

The camera includes an automatic brown out feature which is activated whenever the

incoming voltage drops below 10 Vac or Vdc.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON AUTO IRIS ADJUSTMENT:

WHEN ADJUSTING, USE A SMALL, INSULATED SCREWDRIVER. The auto iris

adjustments are very sensitive. Use gentle pressure when turning. To adjust, turn

either clock-wise or counter-clockwise no more than one degree at a time. Check

the monitor after each turn to determine is the desired brightness and color have

been obtained. When the adjustment is satisfactory, place a hand over the lens to

block out all light. Quickly remove the hand to be sure the iris reacts.

LINE LOCK

All cameras are all shipped from the factory with the line lock function disabled. If your

application requires Line Lock contact Videolarm.
