Video Input

Auxiliary Start Relay Connections

The 

 CONTROL connector is also used to access a

Connect a good grade of 

 video cable from the camera

normally open, SPST relay which can be used to activate a

to the VIDEO IN BNC Connector on the rear panel of the

VCR or other devices during an alert. The relay contacts

1461. The 1461 has a passive loop-thru input. It does not

provide a closure between pins 3 and 4 when an alert condition

terminate the input in 75 ohms. The video input cable should

occurs. CAUTION: DO NOT USE THIS RELAY TO

be terminated in 75 ohms at the end of the run.

Video Output

Connect a good grade of 

 video cable from the VIDEO

 BNC connector on the rear panel of the 1461 to the video

input of the monitor or video switcher. This cable should be

terminated in 75 ohms, or if looped thru the monitor or
switcher, terminated at the end of the run.

Automatic Switcher Call-Up Connections

Connections to an external switcher are made at the
CONTROL connector on the rear panel of the 1461. Pin 2
provides a logic-level closure during an alert for remote call-up

of a switcher. A typical system connection for switcher call-up
is shown in the Appendix. The CONTROL connector pin
definitions are:

PIN1

Ground
