TO PREVENT FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
The lightning flash with arrowhead sym-
bol, within an equilateral triangle, is
interned to alert the user to the pres-
ence of uninsulated "dangerous volt-
age" within the product's enclosure that
may be of sufficient magnitude to con-
stitute a risk of electric shock to per-
sons.
FOR YOUR SAFETY PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TEXT CARE-
FULLY.
This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin mains plug for your
safety and convenience.
A 13 amp fuse is fitted in this plug.
Should the fuse need to be replaced please ensure that the replacement
fuse has a rating of 13 amp and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to
BS1362.
Check for the ASTA mark Hor the BSI mark Gon the body of the fuse.
If the plug contains a removable fuse cover you must ensure that it is refit-
ted when the fuse is replaced.
If you lose the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement

The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following
code. Green-and-yellow: Earth
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wire in the mains lead of this appliance may not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows.
The wire which is coloured green-and-yellow must be connected to
the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth
symbol Ior coloured greenor green-and-yellow.
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal in
the plug which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
How to replace the fuse

THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED.
To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted
only into a standard three-pin power point which is effectively earthed
through the normal household wiring. Extension cords used with the
equipment must be three-core and be correctly wired to provide con-
nection to earth. Wrongly wired extension cords are a major cause of
fatalities.
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that
the power point is earthed and that the installation is completely safe.
For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective earthing of the power
point, consult a qualified electrician.

PREFACE
The Panasonic Camera Drive Unit WV-PS11B is spe-
cially designed to drive specified cameras such as WV-
BP70 or WV-CP100.
This simple system is specially designed for surveil-
lance and security needs at offices, factories, schools,
hospitals, public or residential buildings, etc.
FEATURES
• Stable DC power is supplied to the specified cam-
era by a regulator in the camera drive unit.
• A single coaxial cable connects the specified cam-
era and camera input of the camera drive unit.
• Three signals, video, DC power and vertical drive
pulses, are carried by a single coaxial cable (used
with the WV-BP70 or WV-CP100 camera.).
• Audio signals can be transmitted from the speci-
fied camera to the camera drive unit (used with the
WV-CP100 or WV-CF20 camera.).
• VD/SYNC input and output connectors for synchro-
nizing in the parallel operation.
• Built-in protection circuit protects the appliance in
case of wrong connection.

CONNECTIONS
Cautions:
• Set the POWER switch of the camera drive unit to OFF (l) during connections. If the power of the camera drive
unit is ON during connections, the protection circuit that protects it in case of wrong connection will operate and
prevent the camera from functioning.
• Connect only a specified camera, WV-BP70, WV-CF20 or WV-CP100. If another camera is connected, the cam-
era drive unit will not operate due to activation of the protection circuit.

1. Connect the coaxial cable between the camera
and CAMERA IN connector of the camera drive
unit. The approximate maximum cable length is as
follows:
Coaxial DC R/1000 ft. of Maximum
Cable Type Inner Conductor Cable Length
RG-59/U Less than 30 Ω200 m (660 ft.)
RG-6/U Less than 12 Ω500 m (1,650 ft.)
The maximum DC resistance of the cable between
the camera and camera drive unit is 20 Ω.
2. Connect the coaxial cable between the video moni-
tor and VIDEO OUT connector of the camera drive
unit. The approximate maximum cable length is as
follows:
