Receiving Antenna Assembly
Magnetic Mount Assembly Instructions
•Position “O”ring around bushing on magnetized base.
•Affix receiving antenna to base.
Permanent Mount Assembly Instructions
•Refer to Figure 1 for an assembly diagram. The mount
requires a 3⁄4" (19mm) hole in a flat area with a
thickness of (0.5mm to 1.0mm) .020" to .040".
•Feed the lead-in cable from the top until the bushing
assembly is in position to drop into the hole. The
bushing should be tilted at a slight angle and fed into
the hole. The threaded top of the bushing will not fall
through the hole.
•Thread the brass nut onto the bushing. Be sure the "O"-
ring is in the groove of the brass nut before tightening.
The brass nut should be tightened until it comes in
contact with the surface and the "O" ring is
compressed.
Installing BNC Connector
•Refer to diagrams in Figures 2, 3, and 4 while
performing the following steps.
•Trim cable as shown taking care not to damage the
inner conductor or braid.
•Slip crimp sleeve over cable. Place inner conductor into
contact. Note that the end of contact and inner
dielectric must be butting and square. Crimp with
appropriate tooling.
•Flair outer braid, and gently but firmly push the contact
into the connector housing until a snap is felt,
indicating the contact is in place. Slip the crimp sleeve
in place, butting the flange against the connector body,
and crimp with appropriate tooling.
Receiver to Receiving Antenna Assembly
Connecting the Receiving Antenna to the
Receiving Control Unit
Connect the receiving antenna to the top of the receiver
control unit using the coaxial cable supplied with the
antenna.
Connecting the Receiving Control Unit to the TV
and/or VCR
Connect the receiver control unit to the TV and/or VCR
using the video cable supplied. Attach one end of the
cable to yourTV or VCR's input ports. Connect the other
end to one of the three video out connectors on the
receiving control unit (note that one of the connectors is
an RCA connector; the other two are BNC connectors - a
BNC to RCA connector is included). The additional video
output connectors can be used to send the transmission
to another TV or VCR. If you are using aTranscommand
system, you will not need to attach any video cables. For
additional video cable, contact Bullard Inside Sales at
877-BULLARD (285-5273).
Powering the Receiving Control Unit
Connect either the AC or DC adapter to the power input
port on the receiving control unit. When power is
supplied, a red LED on the front panel will illuminate.
Selecting the Channel on your TV
In order to view the transmitted image, yourTV should be
set to video input or auxiliary channel. SomeTVs require
a remote control to access the video or auxiliary channel.
See yourTV owner's manual for further information.

interference by one or more of the following measures:
•Change receiver and transmitter channel
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
•Increase the separation distance between the affected
equipment and receiver
•Connect the affected equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected
•Consult Bullard or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help

CAUTION
Your Bullard Wireless RemoteTransmitter/Receiver has
been designed to operate in a variety of environments.
However, Bullard recommends protecting the Receiving
Control Unit from high-moisture environments.
Signal quality may vary considerably depending upon
location. Composition and construction of interior walls
and barriers will affect range indoors. Likewise, outdoor
operation could be affected by large metallic objects,
structures, fences, and dense foliage. Repositioning of
both transmitter and receiver may be necessary to
optimize performance.
Failure to note this information may effect operation of
the thermal imager.
