Chapter 1: Introduction Introduction to the CT2200HDV Preliminary Remarks The present manual is provided for users and operators of the CT2200HDV Transmitter. It is intended to support the installation, operation, maintenance and daily use of the unit in general. The manual should be kept with the CT2200HDV Transmitter and may be consulted when questions occur.
Chapter 1: Introduction Description General Information on D-ENG (Digital Electronic News Gathering) The introduction of the DVB standard established the basis for digital broadcast video transmission making efficient use of the available bandwidth. Powerful compression algorithms allow a reduction in the amount of data to be transferred, while maintaining the high quality standards for video and audio signals used in broadcasting applications.
Chapter 1: Introduction Video Inputs The CT2200HDV accepts only HDV encoded information at the input: • HDV IEEE-1394a (Firewire) CT2200HDV operates with all currently available HDV cameras. OFDM Modulator The digital data signal for wireless transmission is processed by the OFDM Modulator and following IQ MOdulator. The OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) modulation procedure has a major impact on the transmission properties and was specifically developed for terrestrial radio transmission.
Chapter 3: Options and Upgrades Installing the Equipment Safety instructions Warning The regulations of VDE0100 must be observed for installation and operation of the unit. Caution • Establish all other connections before starting the unit by connecting it to 12VDC. Essential a valid video signal must be connected to the desired input before power on the CT2200HDV. • When you connect the CT2200HDV as described in the following sections, make sure that the "Caution" instructions given there are observed.
Chapter 3: Options and Upgrades Connectors Figure 2 • Input connector of the CT2200HDV RF Connector The RF output signal of the Low-Power Amplifier is fed out at the SMA(f) connector on top of the unit. The CT2200HDV provides a RF output of about 400mW (+26dBm). The signal may be further amplified by a secondary amplifier optimized for HD-COFDM signals.
Chapter 3: Options and Upgrades Connecting Signal Sources The encoded Video/Audiosignal supplied by the camera have to applied to the IEEE 1394a connector of the transmitter. Connecting the RF Output A Omni directional antenna with SMA(m) connector can be directly mount at the RF out socket. Connecting the 12VDC Supply Voltage Caution When using a battery or power pack, make sure that the maximum supply current is at least 3A and the output voltage matches the input voltage range of the CT2200HDV.
Chapter 4: Operating the Equipment Operating the Equipment Multifunctional display Button 1 Button 2 Button 3 During power up time the display of the CT2200HDV pass a self test. It displays manufacture, transmitter type and software version. BMS HDV SW v 0.88 After the selftest, the current frequency is displayed. 2350.0MHz With its automatically COFDM setup the customer menu is very easy to handle. Due to press and hold the button 3 for approximately 2sec. the setup menu is accessibly.
Chapter 4: Operating the Equipment Frequency input In the Submenu „Frequency“ the current frequency is displayed. ** setup: ** Frequency 2350.0 To change the frequency press button 3 for approximately 2 sec. ** setup: ** Frequency 2350.0 The flashing curser indicates the current changing position of the frequency. With button 1 or 2 the marked digit can be increased or decreased about one digit. To change the next lower digit, press button 3 and repeat the step before.
Chapter 4: Operating the Equipment Automatical display cutoff The display can be set to turn off automatically after a preset time of inactivity. Select "Disp off" submenu and press button 3 for 2 seconds. Use buttons 1 and 2 to set value. Set the desired time-out interval between 015 to 240 seconds. A value of 000 (default) causes the display to stay on continuously. ** setup: ** Disp off 000s To exit this submenu, press button 3.
