Maximum ambient temperature must not exceed 35° Celsius · Humidity in rooms where this equipment is situated must not exceed a hygrometric level of 85 %.If you have to use your equipment outside,avoid exposing it to rain water or to splashes. The transition from a cold environment to a hot one may cause condensation.Allow it to dry by itself before restarting the equipment · In the event of prolonged absence,switch off the equipment by means of the on/off switch. Even when switched off, certain components remain live. In order to insulate it completely you must remove the plug from the main electricity supply · In the event of an electrical storm, it is advisable to disconnect the equipment from the electricity supply so as to avoid potentially damaging electrical or electromagnetic surges.To this end, make sure that the mains plug is easily accessible for disconnection · Disconnect the equipment immediately if you detect a smell of burning or smoke. Under no circumstances must you open the equipment yourself;you run the risk of electrocution. Principles of operation See the installation diagrams (A and D) inside the cover at the beginning of the instruction booklet EN Thanks to the Video Sender's transmitter and receiver, you can now send a private audio-video signal from one appliance to another over a short distance without wires. Communication between the transmitter and receiver is digitised using the MPEG format. Diagram A ­ installing a flat screen TV (or video projector) in a different part of the room from the main audio-video cabinet is one example of its use.The Video Sender eliminates all the problems of long cables or forcing you to keep your screen close by.The receiver is installed next to the flat screen while the other appliances remain in their cabinet alongside the transmitter in another part of the room or even in another room. Diagram B ­ you can use a second TV set or flat panel screen in a room that has no antenna outlet or doesn't have the same appliances you have in your main set-up thanks to the Video Sender. If your main gear is in the lounge, for example, then you can see pictures in the other room from one of these appliances by installing the transmitter in the lounge and the receiver close to the second TV set. You can even operate the source appliance from the second room via your remote control handset, just as if you were in the same room. Diagrams C and D show the connections between the various appliances. You can play and hear music if you connect the transmitter to a suitable outlet (audio out), and the receiver to an amplifier (audio in) placed in another room. Maintenance Clean the equipment with a soft cloth and a neutral detergent. The use of solvents, abrasive products or alcohol-based products is likely to damage the equipment. Regulations This equipment must only be installed inside. Its use is restricted to private radio transmission. Connection to a public or independent network, or to an outside aerial is prohibited. Under no circumstances should this appliance be put to industrial use. It is designed solely for domestic operation.

When wall-mounting the unit, make sure your Video Sender system works properly before starting to drill any fastening holes since in some cases the transmitter or receiver has to be shifted slightly (see installation diagram A). 2. Fit the AC adaptator (7) to the transmitter and plug it into a 220/240 V ~50 Hz mains power supply. 3. Switch on the transmitter (4) and the receiver (1) by switching their off/on buttons to the on position (POWER). 4. Fit the lead (6) following these stages: · connect the jack plug to the IR ext socket. · unwind the lead and place one cell near the infrared window of the unit to be operated. · ask someone to use the remote control of that equipment item to be controlled from the room where the second (TV2) is located. · by moving the cell around in front of the unit to be operated you will find the location that permits its control from the other room.You must fix the cell in that position. Usually, this will be a more or less large, transparent area located on the front of the unit. 5. Remove the protective self-adhesive film from the infrared cell of cord (6) and affix it to the infrared-sensitive panel of the equipment to be remote controlled. The cordon has 3 cells in order to let you play video and audio from 3 equipment items connected to the (TV1) set (see separate document or at the end of this booklet). ! TRANSMISSION is performed digitally using the MPEG standard for compression and decompression of the audio-video signals. The maximum range is 100 metres in an unobstructed line.This range will be less inside a building depending on the wall and floor materials, etc., that the waves have to cross. ! CONCEALED ANTENNA inside each unit. Installation of receiver See the installation diagrams (B and C) inside the cover at the beginning of the instruction booklet 1. Place the receiver (1) on, or near, the second television set (TV2). 2. Connect the receiver to the second television set using the lead (2). 3. Fit the AC adaptator (3) to the receiver and plug it into a 220/240 V ~ 50 Hz mains power supply.. 4. Switch on the receiver (1) using the off/on button on the front. Installation of transmitter See the installation diagrams (B and D) inside the cover at the beginning of the instruction booklet 1.Place the transmitter (4) near the source equipment (VCR player, DVD player, etc.) from which you want to transmit video or audio output, and connect it with the cord (5). Connect the TV set to a suitable outlet from the VCR player or DVD player (AV1). Obtain a (non-supplied) SCART-TV set connector and connect the TV set to the (5) adapter already connected to the VCR player or DVD player (see item marked *) 2 01_VS990_en 15/11/05 17:57 Page 3 Instructions for use 1.
