August 2006 1:47 13 ABOUT THIS APPLIANCE Your radio transmission system transmits signals wirelessly from an audio/video source to another audio/video device. Typically, the radio signals are sent from a source with an aerial (e.g. a SAT receiver) to another device without an aerial (e.g. a different TV in the building) so that the first device's aerial can be used for the second device. You can use the source remote control to control this device via the receiver. Your system will work over distances of up to approximately 100m outdoors and approximately 30m indoors. The range also depends on the nature of the wall and ceiling materials. It is also possible to connect the radio transmission system to a PC, for instance to transmit digital presentations onto a TV. Audio/video source remote control Possible signal transmitters and receivers Typically, the system may be used to transfer the television reception from a satellite receiver, as the source, to another television in your house. Other audio/video sources can be a DVD recorder, a video recorder or a television, a settop box for PayTV or even a PC card. The device connected to the receiver may be, for example, a television or an amplifier. 8 81241 TEVION UK.book Seite 9 Mittwoch, 23. August 2006 1:47 13 Assigning the radio transmitter and receiver The transmitter in the radio transmission system is connected to the audio/video source and the receiver is connected to a television or video recorder. The three-core AV cinch cable or the SCART adapter is used to connect the three types of signal ­ video, audio right and audio left ­ to the system. Controlling the audio/video source remotely You can use the audio/video source remote control to control these devices from the point where the receiver is located. The infrared signals are converted and transmitted as radio signals. The transmitter converts the radio signals back into an infrared signal. The three infrared transmitters in the infrared extender then send these signals on to the relevant devices. Scart or Cinch If the audio/video source has a SCART connection, use the SCART adapter for the transmitter. If the device connected to the receiver has a SCART connection use the SCART adapter for the receiver. If the device connected to the receiver does not have a SCART connection, use the DIN-AV cinch cable or a 75 Ohm aerial cable. If the audio/video source has a 3.5mm audio output use the audio adapter supplied. 9 81241 TEVION UK.book Seite 10 Mittwoch, 23. August 2006 1:47 13 Range Audio and video signals are transmitted in the 2.4GHz range. The range is approx. 100m in the open air and approx. 30m inside. The range may be less depending on environmental conditions. Example use 10 81241 TEVION UK.book Seite 11 Mittwoch, 23. August 2006 1:47 13 SCOPE OF DELIVERY Remove all packing materials.
