Installation Instructions
The VLD-3002 is a dual channel unit. For each channel there are:
Signal, Black, & White level Indicators; Adjustable trigger points for
black and white alarm levels; and a normally open relay contact that
closes on an alarm condition.
The VLD-3001 is a single channel version of the VLD-3002. The
VLD-1001 is a low cost single channel units which only detects video
presence only and not black/white levels. Below is a typical
application of the VLD-3002.

If the video loop through is not used, you must terminate the unused
loop through connector with a 75 ohm terminator.
Adjustments
Black level adjustment is used to sense a blocked camera lens or
loss of scene illumination. Apply a video signal with the darkest
acceptable scene. Slowly adjust the Bk control until the BK threshold
indicator just lights. Now turn the Bk control in the reverse direction
until the BK threshold indicator just turns off. Any lower level scene
will trigger the alarm.
White level adjustment; is used to sense a bright light shining into
the camera or an unusually bright change of scene. Apply a video
signal with the brightest acceptable scene. Slowly adjust the Wh
control until the Wh threshold indicator just lights. Now turn the Wh
control in the reverse direction until the Wh threshold indicator just
turns off. Any brighter level scene will trigger the alarm.
There is no adjustment for the signal (sync) channel. This alarm will
activate when the input video signal drops to 0.5 volts (pp) or less.
