APPLICATION DATA The structured wiring modules are wired using Category 5 (CAT-5) or Category 5E (CAT-5E) cable and RG-6 coaxial cables. All structured wiring modules are easily installed into enclosures, also supplied by Square D. Category 5 and 5E Cable Category 5 and 5E cables are made up of four unshielded twisted pairs. Each pair is color coded for application identification. CAT-5 or CAT-5E cables are recommended for telecommunications, camera, and data applications. CAT-5 and CAT-5E cables will support standard analog telephone, digital telephone, and data. Category 5 and Category 5E cables meet TIA/EIA–586A and 570 standards for data applications such as high-speed Internet access. The cables have a bandwidth of 100 MHz and data transmission speeds up to 100 Mbps. CAT-5 and CAT-5E cable installations provide connections for immediate and future computer, video, and telephone upgrades, thus protecting the long-term resale value of the home. NOTE: Category 5/5E cables should not be routed parallel to the AC power wiring unless 14 in. (356 mm) of separation or greater is provided. Cross Category 5/5E cables over AC power wires at 90°. Aluminum Foil Shielding Foam Polyethylene Dielectric Core RG-6 Coaxial Cable F-Connector Copper Clad Center Conductor PVC Jacket 60% Aluminum Braid RG-6 Quad RG-6 coaxial cable has an 18 gauge copper coated steel center conductor, polyethylene dielectric core, aluminum braid, and PVC jacket. Standard “F” connectors are used for video, audio, and television equipment connections. Under extreme noise conditions, such as near a radio or television transmitter, use quad-shielded RG-6 cable. NOTES: RG-6 coaxial cable should not be routed parallel to AC power wiring unless 14 in. (356 mm) of separation or greater is provided. Cross RG-6 coaxial cable over AC power wires at 90°. When bending coaxial cable, a radius of no less than four times the outside diameter of the cable should be maintained. For RG-6 coaxial cable, the bending radius should be 1 - 1 1/2 inches or greater. 04/03 © 2001–2003 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 5 Section 1–Introduction www.squared.com/multilink Section 1–Introduction Introduction www.squared.com/multilink Application Data Installing Modules into Enclosure All structured wiring modules are easily installed into enclosures, also supplied by Square D.

Two types of wire are used for communication and entertainment: CAT-5 or CAT-5E, made up of 4-UTP (unshielded twisted pairs), and RG-6 coaxial. CAT-5 or CAT-5E 4-UTP wires handle voice and data for up to four telephone lines. CAT-5 or CAT-5E wires can have two to four unshielded twisted pairs. Square D recommends four pairs. RG-6 coaxial wires handle television (antenna or cable), satellite dish, cable modem, or AV modulator signals. Refer to the following table for the recommended wiring schemes. These wires run from the enclosure to the locations indicated in the table.

For pre-wiring video camera modules, use one red CAT-5/5E cable from each video camera location (for example, front door) and security panel location. Audio/Video and Television Pre-wire Scheme Recommended Color Coding for Coaxial Wire RG-6 Coaxial Wire Color Usage White Use as send, upstream, or internal cable from modulators to distribution panel Black Use as receive, downstream, or external cable from distribution panel to televisions For pre-wiring audio/video and television modules, use RG-6 coaxial cable. Use black coaxial cable for each television and computer location. Use white coaxial cable for each location where one or more video sources are located, the CATV demarcation point (the interface from the television service provider), and off-air antennas. For satellite dish locations, use two white coaxial cables to the distribution panel. For each satellite receiver location, use one white coaxial cable to the distribution panel. If HDTV satellite dishes are installed, four coaxial cables may be required because the satellite systems can accommodate up to four different receivers from a single dish. 04/03 © 2001–2003 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 7 Section 2–Wiring Guide RECOMMENDED PRE-WIRE SCHEMES Wiring Guide www.squared.com/multilink Installing and Terminating the Cable Section 2–Wiring Guide Data Pre-wire Scheme For pre-wiring data modules, use one blue CAT-5/5E cable from each computer location, room with a separate peripheral (such as a laser printer), and room where access to the network is needed.

If the Internet service provider (ISP) allows multiple IP addresses to be leased to one modem, then the high-speed Internet service may be available to all the computers in the home using the Multi-Link Ethernet Hub. In this situation, the high-speed Internet line will jump from the SDM8D to the “uplink” port in the SDM5DE. All the computers connected to the Ethernet hub must have firewall software or hardware installed since they all will have access to the high-speed line at the same time. If the ISP does not allow multiple IP addresses to be leased to one modem, then replace the Multi-Link Ethernet Hub in the figure below with a router (purchased separately).

For example, when the remote control is pointed at the IR target located at the television, the IR pulses are repeated by the emitter, which is controlling the DVD player in another location. IR information and power from the set top modulator are passed through port B only. When the modulator is connected to port A, IR remote control passing capability is not available and the video hub must be powered. All of the television ports can have targets connected. See the following figure. IR Gnd +12vdc Video hub (model SDM38VHIR) B +Pwr Modulators Televisions A Set top modulator IR target (model SDM1VIR) IR emitter (model SDM2VIR) Typical remote control The single channel modulator (model SDM11VM), channel injectors (models SDM11VMB/SDM11VMH), and the modulator combiner (model SDM81VC) do not pass IR information for remote control. Use only a modulator with IR control, such as a set top modulator (model SDM41VTST, SDM21VTST, SDM41VT, or SDM21VT), and connect the set top modulator to the B+pwr input port of the video hub. 36 © 2001–2003 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 04/03 www.squared.com/multilink Video Distribution Hubs Product Description Television Output Expansions A video hub can be connected to up to eight more video hubs, adding up to 64 television outlets. The longest recommended coaxial cable length should not exceed 150 ft (45.8 m) (total length from master hub to expansion hub and expansion hub to the television). NOTE: IR control can also be expanded using an IR control expander (ChannelPlus model 2181). Section 7–Video Distribution Hubs For typical installation, see the figure below. Master SDM38VHIR/VBIR ChannelPlus model 2181 allows the SDM38VHIR/VBIR to expand IR control also. Use one 2181 for each SDM38VHIR/VBIR expansion. Expansion SDM38VHIR/VBIR Expansion SDM38VHIR/VBIR Modulator Combiner Hub (Model SDM81VC) The modulator combiner hub has inputs for eight modulators for distribution through a coaxial panel. The signals from all eight inputs are consolidated into a single output. The modulator combiner hub works like a zero-loss amplifier/combiner. The modulated signals that are put on the inputs will appear on the outputs with about 1dB of gain. When the output of the modulator combiner hub is connected to one of the modulator inputs of a video hub, signals will automatically appear on the video hub outputs at a legal FCC level. Features: • Combines modulator inputs from eight locations • Combines all channels into single output SDM81VC • Accepts modulated inputs from 400–800 MHz • Modulator input expansion hub for models SDM38VBIR and SDMVHIR • 120 Vac power supply and adapter included • LED power indicator • 2.5 in.

For example, if the modulator is broadcasting on UHF channel 16, make sure the television is on UHF 16 rather than CATV16. UHF 16 and CATV 16 are at different frequencies. Weak UHF channel If the television has a separate UHF input, be sure that it is connected. Herringbone interference on modulator channel (diagonal lines) • Move the modulator channel to another number. A low pass filter might need to be added to remove the cable company noise. • If the filter does not work, add a DC-block to remove common mode interference. Herringbone interference on many channels, including modulator channels (disappears when you remove the CATV/antenna feed) Use a variable attenuator and try to find a signal level where the interference just disappears. Sometimes, the problem is one station is stronger than the rest. In this case, attenuating all of the signals with a simple attenuator may cause the desired stations to be weak (snowy). Reduce the strength of only the offending station. A common FM trap will help if the problem is a nearby FM tower. If the problem is a nearby television station, usually the station management can provide suitable filters. Audio volume is low If you have a mono source, connect it to both right and left inputs using an RCA ‘Y’ connector. For proper audio level, both right and left inputs must be used. No color on modulated channels The incorrect cable standard might be in use. Not all televisions can accommodate the 1.25MHz frequency difference between the HRC and IRC cable standards. FCC Requirements These products comply with FCC requirements. A system using these devices will comply with FCC requirements. Use only video modulators and modulator combiners that comply with Part 15 of the FCC rules and have 25 dBmV maximum output levels. Failure to do so may void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. The high headroom amplifier video hub (model SDM38VHIR) is suitable for use with an antenna or with CATV systems.

Using a camera (model SDM1VC, SDM1VCC, SDM2VC, or SDM2VCC) or wall plate (model SDM1VWP), any audio/video device can be connected to the channel injector with a CAT-5/5E cable. Both models include push-button programming. SDM11VMH The injectors are designed to work with an existing installation, so additional hardware such as coaxial panels or coaxial wiring to the video source is not necessary. The community antenna television (CATV) or antenna coaxial cables are connected directly to the channel injector input. The channel injector distributes the new channel with antenna or CATV throughout the house using the existing coaxial cable. Any television connected to the channel injector will be able to view the antenna or CATV along with the newly created camera or video channel. Section 9–Modulators Features: • SDM11VMH is a combination modulator, high headroom amplifier, and isolator. The channel injector is used with antennas for off-air digital and analog television or CATV signals. • SDM11VMB is a combination modulator and bi-directional amplifier with a 5–42 MHz reverse channel. The reverse channel is used to support bi-directional CATV (cable modems, pay-per-view, and interactive cable). • CAT-5/5E inputs (screw down terminal block or RJ-45 jack) • Channel range: CATV 65–125 (excluding 95–99) and UHF 14–64 • Push button channel programming • FCC Part 15 compliant • 120 Vac power supply included • LED power indicator • 2.5 in.

The video wall plate can be connected to the channel injector by two methods. The first method connects the camera or video wall plate with CAT-5 or CAT-5E cable directly to a CAT-5/5E data hub (model SDM8D) 110 punch-down block and then connects an RJ-45 patch cord (included) from the data hub RJ-45 jack to the channel injector. The second method connects the camera or video wall plate directly to the eight-position terminal block on the channel injector. Section 9–Modulators The channel injector was designed to work with CAT-5 or CAT-5E wiring. Although the system will function with quad wire, CAT-5 or CAT-5E wiring will deliver the highest quality picture and allows the use of an automatic line length sensor and picture compensator.

They are digitally tuned and convert any baseband video and audio signal to a user-selected UHF, or Ultraband CATV channel. They have push-button programming for setting the desired channel. They provide an output signal level of 25 dBmV. Section 9–Modulators SDM21VT and SDM41VT (Front view) SDM21VT and SDM41VT (Back view) Each set top modulator has a 5-volt IR engine and connections for IR emitters. When the modulators are used with a video distribution hub (models SDM38VHIR or SDM38VBIR), they allow remote television locations to have IR control of connected video components, such as DVDs, VCRs, and satellite receivers. An IR target (model SDM1VIR) would be required at each television location. An IR emitter (model SDM2VIR) would be required at each device being controlled. The set top modulators offer loop-through capability. Jumpers (75 ohm termination) are located on the side of each unit. When the terminator is removed, output signals can be looped to a local monitor or VCR. The MTS (Multichannel Television Sound) stereo sound modulators encode both audio channels using the MTS stereo standard. Stereo and surround sound information will be received by any MTS compatible television receiver. Features: • SDM21VT and SDM21VTST have two inputs for modulating DVD, VCR, etc. SDM21VTST and SDM41VTST (Front view) • SDM41VT and SDM41VTST have four inputs for modulating DVD, VCR, etc. • SDM21VTST and SDM41VTST maintain MTS stereo sound • 25 dBmV output level • 5-volt IR engines • Connections for IR emitters (model SDM2VIR) • Push button programming • Tuning range: UHF 14–64 and CATV 65–125 (excluding 95–99) SDM21VTST and SDM41VTST (Back view) • Drift free performance • FCC Part 15 compliant 48 © 2001–2003 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 04/03 www.squared.com/multilink Modulators General Information and Application Data GENERAL INFORMATION AND APPLICATION DATA Situation Possible Solution No picture • Verify that the video source is on and is producing a video signal. • Verify that the channel injector and camera or wall plate are wired properly.

No stereo (models SDM21VTST and SDM41VTST) When using the television outputs to send audio to a home theater system, make sure the television is in the stereo mode for external speakers. Consult the television manual. No color on modulated channels The incorrect cable standard might be in use. Not all televisions can accommodate the 1.25MHz frequency difference between the HRC and IRC cable standards. FCC Requirements These products comply with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: these devices may not cause harmful interference, and these devices must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Installation Requirements FCC classifies this product under Part 15 of its rules as a "television interface device.” Systems designed using television interface devices have the following legal requirements: 1. The modulated channel signal strength may not exceed 15.56 dBmV at any television (Federal Regulation 47CFR15.115(b)(1)(i)). 2. If an antenna is used in the system, the modulated channel signal strength may not exceed -51 dBmV at the antenna input port (Federal Regulation 47CFR15.115(c)(4)). NOTE FOR INSTALLER: The system you design must comply with these regulations. As the installer, you are responsible. The easiest way to be fully compliant is to use a Square D video hub. Square D video hubs have the necessary isolation from the modulator input ports to the antenna input port and gain characteristic from the modulator input ports to the television output ports. These features will make your modulator installation comply with the above requirements. The typical installation shown on page 45 is fully compliant. The channel injectors have the necessary characteristics to comply with the requirements as designed without additional accessories. The model SDM11VMH is suitable for use with an antenna or with CATV systems.The model SDM11VMB is suitable for use with CATV systems only. 04/03 © 2001–2003 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 49 Section 9–Modulators Troubleshooting Modulators www.squared.com/multilink Technical Information TECHNICAL INFORMATION Programming Programming New Channels The new channel selected should be an unused channel. It should have no interference or trace of pictures, just “snow.” There must also be one unused channel above and below the selected channel to avoid interference. Programming a new channel with the channel injector (models SDM11VMH/SDM11VMB) and set top modulators (models SDM21VT/SDM21VTST and SDM41VT/SDM41VTST) is simple with the push button programming feature. For the channel injector (models SDM11VMH/SDM11VMB), the “Program” push button is used to enter the channel digits. For a programming example, see the following figure. The example uses channel 120.

Any problems encountered with Multi-Link structured wiring installations can most likely be attributed to the situations that are outlined in the table below. To ensure a properly working system, it is recommended to test each connection during the installation process. If it is necessary to troubleshoot a Multi-Link installation, follow these guidelines to make the troubleshooting process easier: • Start at the demarcation point of the system. • Don’t overlook the obvious. For example, make sure all the power supplies are connected. • Temporarily remove as many Multi-Link products as possible from the system to focus on the specific problem. • Connect each modulator or video hub directly to a television to verify each Multi-Link product is working properly. RADIO FREQUENCY TROUBLESHOOTING TECHNIQUES Thin Rolling Lines or Herringbone Patterns on Many Channels Cause Solution Signal strength at television is too high. Usually caused by an over-driven amplifier. Add one or more in-line attenuators (Multi-Link catalog numbers SDM2503 or SDM2506, see page 65 for more information). Cause Solution Bad coaxial runs. Check coaxial cable for damage. Replace F-connectors. Section 14–Troubleshooting Snowy Channels Thick Video Bars Cause Solution Interference from AC power. Move coaxial cable runs at least 1 ft (.31m) away from AC wiring, HID or florescent lighting ballasts, ground wires and lightning rods. Hum Cause Solution Bad power supply. Replace power supply on affected Multi-Link amplifier or modulator. Dark Band Moves Up Screen Cause Solution Bad power supply. Replace power supply on affected Multi-Link amplifier or modulator. No Infrared Control Signals Cause Solution Disconnect all IR products. Reconnect one at a time to identify shorted Either a short in infrared control products (catalog numbers SDM1VIR product. Replace shorted IR product. Also replace any non-IR/DC passing and SDM2VIR) or a non-IR/DC passing splitter is installed in the system. splitters in the system. Multiple Channels Not Displayed by Television Cause Solution Too narrow bandwidth on coaxial and/or splitters. Also, television tuner may not be able to accept higher channels (a problem with older television sets). Use RG-6 coaxial cable. Make sure bandwidth of Multi-Link splitters and amplifiers match incoming system frequency range; replace with higher bandwidth products if needed. Television Will Not Receive Modulated Signal When Cable Box is Used Cause Solution Some Cable Company Boxes will not pass modulated signals. Install a 2-way splitter ahead of cable box. Connect one side of 2-way splitter to cable box. Connect the other side to a high pass filter (Channelplus catalog number C-BCK). Use another 2-way splitter to combine the output of the cable box with the output from the high pass filter and connect combined signal to television. Modulated Channels Exhibit Ghosting 04/03 Cause Solution Interference from cable or off-air programming. Also possible result of inadequate coaxial cable. Make sure coaxial cable has adequate shielding. Also see Modulator Troubleshooting below. © 2001–2003 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 69 Troubleshooting www.squared.com/multilink General Troubleshooting Techniques RADIO FREQUENCY TROUBLESHOOTING TECHNIQUES (CONTINUED) Modulated Channel Displays all Snow on Television Cause Solution Television tuner and modulator are not set on the same mode (UHF vs VHF). See Modulator Troubleshooting below. Modulated Channel is a Black Picture on Television Cause Solution Modulator is working, but connections from video source to modulator are incorrect. Make sure video source is powered. Verify good connections from video source (VCR, DVD, etc.) to modulator. Verify video source is working by connecting directly to television. Also see the section Modulator Troubleshooting for Cameras below. Modulated Channel Exhibits Herringbone Patterns Cause Solution Interference from cable or off-air programming. See the section Modulator Troubleshooting for Cameras below. MODULATOR TROUBLESHOOTING FOR CAMERAS If the modulated channel is not displayed on the television or if the modulated channel is displayed on the television but exhibits ghosting or herringbone patterns, follow the guidelines below: 1. Make sure the channel programmed on the modulator matches the mode to which the television is set. For example, if the modulator is programmed to a channel between channel 14 and channel 69, then make sure the television is set for off air programming. If the modulator is programmed to a channel between channel 69 and channel 125, make sure the television is set for cable television. Section 14–Troubleshooting 2. With the modulator disconnected from the structured wiring system and the incoming cable or antenna signal connected to the structured wiring system, run the autoprogram on the television set. Autoprogram will detect all “used” channels. Make sure the modulator is programmed to a channel which autoprogram did not detect, i.e., an “unused” channel. 3. Connect the modulator output directly to one television and remove the cable or antenna signal from the structured wiring system. 4. If the modulated signal is displayed on the television, then the incoming cable or antenna signal is interfering with the modulated signal. To correct this problem, a filter must be inserted on the incoming signal to clear any cable signal from desired modulated channel. For the filter, see page page 65. 5. If, when the cable or antenna signal is removed from the structured wiring system, the modulated signal does not show up on the television, then the problem may lie with the television set or a cable run. With the cable or antenna signal removed, connect the modulator output to another television set. If the problem still exists, check the relevant coaxial runs for any damage or improperly installed connectors. 70 © 2001–2003 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved 04/03 www.squared.com/multilink Glossary Structured Wiring Terms STRUCTURED WIRING TERMS Adjacent channels Two television channels having video carriers 6 MHz apart or two FM channels having carriers occupying neighboring allocations.
