Before you begin
Re-terminations should be performed by a competent technician.
We cannot guarantee or warrant any repairs made by any employee outside of our business,
including other unaffiliated service centres.
It is possible to cause further damage to systems, consequential damage caused by poor
worksmanship will not be covered and the warranty will be considered void. This document is
intended as a guide for customers wishing to re-terminate the reels, however we cannot accept
responsibility for any damages resulting from poor application of our guide.
Due to continuous development of our product details may change. We only offer this guide to
support those customers who agree to assume responsibility for maintaining their own product.
We can offer training and support packages for customers on how to perform this competently.
Enquire with Sales or Service.
Before any re-termination ensure the system is disconnected from the power supply and
mains to ensure safe working.
The cameras can become hot,
do not look directly into
the camera due to the bright lights, they may cause temporary blindness or longer-term issues.
Potentially hazardous current and voltage sources contained within system when live.
Gloves and other appropriate PPE are strongly advised based on your risk assessment
due to various mechanical, hygienic, electronic and other hazards. If the system is being re-
terminated in a clean area ensure it has been suitably cleaned for the purpose.
Before you attempt any re-termination it is worth checking the video settings are correct for your
reel. For each different length of reel a different amplifier is used to boost the video signal. If this
is set incorrectly it will give a poor signal that may be misinterpreted as a cable fault.
