INTRODUCTION The Palladium II Series of digital video transmitters provide exceptional video quality in high multipath environments. They are ideal for use inside buildings, in urban areas, and in other applications where multipath would normally cause video tearing or breakup. Fan Heatsink SMA Antenna connection All Palladium II Series transmitters are designed for spectrum-efficient 2.5 MHz channel spacing. Approximately 400 carriers are used to transmit video and two channels of voice and data.
INTRODUCTION Using your Palladium II Transmitter Follow the instructions given in the Quick Start section on pages 6-7. When power is first applied to the Palladium, the unit reverts to the indicated channel and RF ON state. The Alarm LED may be ON, which indicates that there is no active video input. Changing your Transmitter Configuration The Palladium Transmitter can store up to 8 different configurations, which can be selected with the Channel Control.
QUICK START Complete these steps: 1. Connect the transmitter antenna to the SMA connector on the Palladium unit (see photo right). NOTE: Palladium TX-5000A Modules feature a heat sink for proper heat dissipation. For optimal performance, do not block air flow over the fins of this heat sink. 2. Attach a 12 VDC power source (capable of 7 amp output current) to the power block (red) as shown to the right. The input voltage is 12 VDC nom.
