IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

GRAPHIC SYMBOL EXPLANATION

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an

equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the pres-

ence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the prod-

uct's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to con-

stitute a risk of electric shock.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is

intended to alert the user to the presence of important oper-

ating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the litera-

ture accompanying the unit.

IMPORTANT

mended by Vicon as they may cause hazards.

7. Water and Moisture - Do not use this video product in

any location where it may be exposed to water or moisture.

This does not apply to outdoor camera housings, outdoor

pan-and-tilt drives, and other equipment designed for direct

exposure to outdoor environments.

8. Accessories - Do not place this video product on any

unstable surface or table. The video product may fall, caus-

ing serious injury to a person and serious damage to the

video product. Use only with a mounting accessory recom-

mended by Vicon, or sold with the video product. Any

mounting of the video product should follow Vicon's instruc-

tions, and a mounting accessory recommended by Vicon

should be used.

9. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are pro-

vided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the

video product and to protect it from overheating, and these

openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings

should never be blocked by placing the video product on a

rug or other similar surface. This video product should

never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register.

This video product should not be placed in a built-in instal-

lation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation

is provided or Vicon's instructions have been adhered to.

10. Power Sources - This video product should be oper-

ated only from the type of power source indicated on the

marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power sup-

plied to your installation site, consult your Vicon dealer or

local power company. For video products intended to oper-

ate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the oper-

ating instructions.

11. Grounding - This applies to video products equipped

with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a third

(grounding) pin. This plug only fits into a grounding-type

power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to

insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to

replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety pur-

pose of the grounding-type plug.

12. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should

be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or

pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying par-

ticular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles,

and the point where they exit from the video product.

13. Outdoor Cable Grounding - If an outside

cable system is connected to the video product, be

sure the cable system is grounded so as to pro-

vide some protection against voltage surges and

built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1984, provides

information with respect to proper grounding of the

lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of

grounding conductors, location of antenna-dis-

charge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,

and requirements for the grounding electrode.

tion.

GENERAL

This manual is a guide to the installation and operation of

the V703 series fiber optic two-channel video transmis-

sion system. Please read the entire manual before

installing the equipment.

NOTE: The series numbers V703T and V703R are used

to describe all models of transmitters and receivers

unless noted otherwise.

The V703 series video transmission system offers simul-

taneous transmission of two fullframe video signals (color

or monochrome). The V703 system operates over one

multimode fiber.

A complete system consists of a transmitter, V703T, and a

receiver, V703R.

Units are designed for standalone operation or for instal-

lation in Vicon’s V515R-PS or V517R-PS Card Cages

(V703T-R and V703R-R).

Both the V703T transmitter and V703R receiver have two

video input connectors and one fiber connector.

Unpacking the Unit

In the event that anything is missing from the following

list, contact your authorized Vicon representative.

V703T Transmitter or V703R Receiver

Instruction manual

Save the original packing materials in case it becomes

necessary to return the unit. Refer to the Shipping

Instructions at the end of this manual.

MODULE SETUP

Alarm Jumper

Receiver rack cards are supplied with an alarm function

that activates if the optical signal input to the card fails.

The alarm is always indicated on the front panel of the

card by a red LEVEL/LOSSTM LED. The alarm may also

be output to the rack power supply, where a sonalert

(audible alarm) and alarm output contact closure may be

activated.

The alarm is set to ON at the factory. If the alarm output

is not desired, move the Alarm jumper JP1 to the OFF

position. Refer to Figure 2.

NOTE: Setting the Alarm jumper to OFF does not effect

the operation of the LEVEL/LOSSTM LED. Loss of optical

signal will always be indicated by a red LEVEL/LOSSTM

LED.

INSTALLATION

Installation Considerations

This fiber-optic link is supplied in two forms, as a stand-

alone module and as a rack card. Units should be

installed in dry locations protected from extremes of tem-

perature and humidity.

Standalone Modules

1. Determine where the module is to be installed and

ensure that there is adequate space at both ends for

making the various cable connections and for reading

the diagnostic LEDs.

2. Standalone modules are provided with mounting

holes for four No. 6 screws (3-mm or 3.5-mm

screws). The type of screw chosen must be suitable

for the surface on which the module is to be mount-

ed. See Figures 3 and 4.

Rack Cards

Rack cards are designed to be installed in one of Vicon’s

19-inch (483-mm) EIA standard card-cage racks, either the

V515R-PS or the V517R-PS.

CAUTION: Although a rack card may be installed

without turning off power to the rack (hot-swappable),

Vicon recommends that the power switch on the rack power

supply is turned OFF and that the rack power supply is dis-

connected from any power source.

1. Make sure that the card is oriented right-side up and

slide it into the card guides in the rack until the edge

connector at the back of the card seats in the corre-

sponding slot in the rack’s connector panel. Seating

may require thumb pressure on the top and bottom of

the card’s front panel.

CAUTION: Take care not to press on any of the

LEDs.

2. Tighten the two thumb screws on the card until the front

panel of the card is seated against the front of the rack.

CONNECTIONS

Video Cable Connection

Connect the video source cables to the two input BNC jacks

on the V703T transmitter. Connect monitor equipment to

the two output BNC jacks on the V703R receiver. See

Figures 2 and 3.

Vicon suggests that Belden number 9259 or equivalent

coaxial cable should be used.

Fiber Optic Cable Connection

Most cable manufacturers identify the individual fibers in

the cable. Select appropriately terminated fiber and mark

both ends with unique identification label (e.g., for cable no.

03, fiber no. 08) to ensure that the fiber connected to the

near end is the same one that is connected to the far end.

The proper optical connection links the transmitter's OUT

port to the receiver's IN port.

1. Wipe the inside of the port’s sleeve with a lint-free pipe

cleaner moistened with reagent-grade isopropyl alco-

hol. Blow dry with dry air.

2. Clean the connector using a lint-free cloth dampened

with alcohol to thoroughly wipe the side and end of the

ferrule. Blow the ferrule dry with dry air. Visually inspect

the ferrule for lint.

3. Fasten the fiber optic cable to the port.

Power Connections

Standalone transmitters are powered either by 12 - 16 VAC

or by +12 - 16 VDC. Connect input power according to the

label on the module. See Figure 3.

Standalone receivers are powered only by +13.5 - 16 VDC.

Connect input power according to the label on the module.

See Figure 4.

Rack modules’ power connections are made automatically

when the card is installed. To supply power to the rack,

connect the rack power supply to an AC outlet and set the

power switch to ON.

OPERATION

V703 links operate automatically once installed. For an

explanation of LED color codes, see LED OPERATION and

Tables 1 and 2.

LED OPERATION

The V703 has LED indicators that are very useful in

describing the current state of operation, as well as the cur-

rent status of data flow and fiber optic signal strength.

These indicators are LEVEL/LOSS (Receiver) VIDEO IN

(Transmitter), and VIDEO OUT (Receiver). Tables 1 and 2

provide a summary of LED operation. See Figure 5. They

function as follows:

LEVEL/LOSS Indicator

This LED is useful for indicating the relative optical signal

strength at the fiber optic receiver. When sufficient optical

power is being received, the LED shines green. As the opti-

cal power is decreased, as happens through long fiber

runs, splices, or connections, the intensity of the

LEVEL/LOSS LED will diminish until the limit of the V703's

sensitivity range has been reached. At this point the LED

will be OFF. If any additional optical attenuation is intro-

duced, the LEVEL/LOSS LED will turn bright RED, indicat-

ing an insufficient amount of optical power is being

received.

VIDEO IN (and OUT) Indicator

The VIDEO IN LEDs indicate the strength of the two video

signals. The VIDEO IN LEDs on the transmitter remain

green as long as adequate video signals are being input to

the transmitter. If the video input becomes too weak on a

particular channel, the LED turns off. The VIDEO OUT

LEDs on the receiver perform a similar function, except that

it refers to the video channels that are output from the

receiver.

NOTE: The V703 monitors the sync signals on the video to

determine the strength of the signal. It does not monitor the

brightness signal. Thus, if the scene in front of a camera is

totally dark, producing a blank monitor screen, the VIDEO

IN/OUT LEDs can still be green.
