2.6 INSTALLING THE EXTERNAL ANTENNA
To install the external antenna follow these steps:
Make sure that the Vega Video is off by turning off the power supply and deactivating the backup battery in
the configuration pages or through the RST button.
Connect the external antenna connector to the Vega Video’s connector by screwing it clockwise. In case of
problems do not force the connector and check if it is right positioned.
In the configuration pages you are able to test the GSM signal quality and the presence of GPRS recording
in case of use of the Vega Video GPRS, or the link to the Vega Wireless Camera WLAN.
Sometimes the stylus antenna supplied with the device may not be alone sufficient to guarantee the correct
functioning of the system. This can be due to a poor GSM coverage in the installation place (for the Vega
Video GPRS) or to interferences in the installation place (for the WLAN communication). For this reason we
suggest to check the accessories available for the two Vega Video models, in order to get the best results for
your installation.
2.7 POWER SUPPLY
Power the Vega with the power adapter supplied in the package. For your information keep the following
power supply details of the Vega Video: 12 Vdc – 1200 mA.
The Vega Video used with an external USB Hard-Disk USB needs a power supply of 12 Vdc – 1200 mA in
order to ensure an excellent use of the external memory unit.
NOTE: the power adapter supplied (12 Vdc – 1200 mA) can be used only with the Vega Video, without
any USB Hard-disk or memory stick. If you use an external USB memory you need a 12 Vdc –
2000 mA power adapter. You will also need a second backup battery. In the Vega Video available
accessories’ area look up for the “Hard-disk Kit”, including a 12 Vdc – 2000 mA power adapter
and a backup battery.
