ifications found in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
interference, in which case the user will be required to take whatev-
er means may be necessary to correct the interference at his own
expense.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
This apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise
emission set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of Industry of
Canada.
Cet appareil numerique de la classe A respecte toutes les exigences

GENERAL
This manual is a guide to the installation and operation of the
S700VT-MST fiber optic video transmitter. Please read the
entire manual before installing the equipment.
NOTE: The series numbers S700VR is used the describe all
receiver models unless noted otherwise.
The S700VT-MST video transmitters system transmit one
video signal one from a camera to a monitoring station over
one multimode fiber. The S700VT-MST can be used with the
S700VR or S702VR series receivers.
A complete system consists of one transmitter and one
receivers.

FEATURES
The S700VT-MST transmitter housing is extremely small
measuring 1.5 in. (38 mm) by 1.04 (26 mm) by 24 mm
(0.94 in) . An ST optical connector is fixed to one end, while
a coaxial cable with BNC connector and a removable 2-pin
screw-terminal power connector are attached at the opposite
end.
The S700VT-MST transmitter can be used with any of the fol-
lowing receivers: S700VR-EST, S700VR-RST, S702VR-RST.
The S702VR-RST supports two transmitters.
All the receivers feature a diagnostic LEVEL/LOSSTM LED to
indicate the presence of valid fiber signal. (S702V cards have
two such LEDs).
Refer to TROUBLESHOOTING for more information. Rack-
mount receivers are designed to be mounted in a standard 19-
inch card cage (515R1 or 517R1). Electrical power input is
derived from the card cage.

INSTALLATION
The S700VT-MST transmitter is intended to be located on or
near a CCTV camera. If the camera is mounted outdoors, the
S700VT-MST must be mounted inside the camera housing.
Make sure there is sufficient space for making the various
cable, electrical, and fiber connections.
VelcroTM fastener tape is provided for mounting the S700VT-
MST to any smooth, flat surface. See Figure 2 for unit dimen-
sions.
1. Adhere the fastener tape to the transmitter by removing the
protective backing from the gummed tape. Firmly press the
tape to the unit.
2. Fasten the other piece of Velcro to the selected surface in the
same way. The S700VT-MST can now be mounted to the sur-
face by attaching the two pieces of fastener tape to each other.
CONNECTIONS
All fiber-optic links convert electrical signals into a light
source at the transmitter and convert the light back to electrical
signals for output at the receiver.
CAUTION: Make sure all peripheral equipment that will be
connected to the fiber unit is turned OFF during installation.
Video Cable Connection
Connect the video equipment, such as a camera, to the
S700VT-MST transmitter using the attached coaxial cable.
Fiber Optic Cable Connection
The standard optical connector on S700VT-MST units is the
ST type. Connect the pre-terminated fiber to the two fiber
units.
Power Connections
A removable 2-pin screw-terminal connector is provided for
the electrical connection.
1. Make sure the power supply is not connected to any power
source and attach the leads from the power supply to the
appropriate terminals as follows:
Pin 1: +13.5 VDC (DC+) or 12 - 14 VAC
Pin 2: Ground (DC-) or 12 - 14 VAC
2. Plug the power supply into a suitable outlet.
Once the S700VT-MST has been installed and the other end of
the fiber connected to a suitable receiver, power up the periph-
eral equipment.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Operation of a system including an S700VT-MST transmitter
can be monitored with the LEVEL/LOSSTM LED on the
S700VR or S702VR receivers.
When green, LEVEL/LOSS indicates the presence of sufficient
optical and video signals being received from the transmitter. If
unlit, check fiber and all connections and splices. Also check
that the transmitter is connected to an operating video source, is
on, and is connected to the receiver via the fiber.
