2 Safety Notes

The 2.4 GHz wireless system corresponds to the direc-
tive for electromagnetic compatibility 89/336/EEC.
The system is suitable for indoor use only. Protect
it against impurities, humidity, and extreme temper-
atures (admissible ambient temperature range
-10 °C to +55 °C).
Do not scratch or break off the antenna (1). It is rig-
idly mounted. Do not try to pull it out of the unit.
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth; never use
chemicals or water.
No guarantee claims for the unit and no liability for
any resulting personal damage or material damage
will be accepted if the transmission system is used
for other purposes than originally intended, if it is
not correctly connected, operated or not repaired in
an expert way.
If the system is to be put out of operation defini-
tively, take it to a local recycling plant for a disposal
which is not harmful to the environment.

3 Applications

The 2.4 GHz wireless transmission system serves for
wireless transmission of TV/video pictures and stereo
HiFi sound. For this purpose, the following units are
available:
AV-200SET complete set with transmitter and receiv-
er with stereo sound. For simultaneous
transmission of different signals (e. g.
monitoring of nursery and music trans-
mission), parallel use of up to three sets
is possible.
AV-210R receiver station* with stereo sound
AV-220R receiver station* with mono sound and
buzzer
* extension of the complete set to transmit the signals to a
second unit
To the transmitter station, e. g. a satellite receiver, a
video recorder, a HiFi system, or a surveillance cam-
era can be connected. The transmitter station trans-
mits the signals to the receiver station from where
they are fed to the reproduction unit (e. g. TV set,
video recorder, HiFi amplifier, or surveillance monitor).
Of course, VPS and video text signals are transmitted
together with these signals.
The transmission range largely depends on the lo-
cal conditions. Without any obstacles between the
transmitter and the receiver, the maximum range may
be 300 m. In buildings, however, it is reduced to ap-
prox. 30 m by walls and ceilings, depending on their
condition.

3.1 Approval

According to the R+TTE directive (Radio and Tele-
communication Technical Equipment), the approval
for the transmitter station is valid in the countries
of the European Union. For operation in countries
outside the EU, please contact your retailer or the
MONACOR subsidiary in the country where this unit
will be operated. A particular approval for the receiver
station is not required.

4 Operation

4.1 Placing the transmitter station and the
receiver station
The best reception quality is obtained when placing
the antennas (1) of the stations in parallel. Practical
experience has shown that an optimum reception is
obtained when placing the units at a minimum height
of 1.5 m to 2 m above the ground. Prior to final mount-
ing, a trial run is recommended as the transmission
quality can be substantially changed by displacing the
transmitter station and the receiver station by a few
centimetres only.
4.2 Setting the transmission channel
Switching on/off the buzzer

(for AV-220R only)

The wireless transmission is made in the 2.4 GHz
range which has been divided by the manufacturer
into five channels with a distance of 14 MHz. As a
maximum, three channels can be used simulta-
neously (channels 1, 3, and 5) as two adjacent chan-
nels will interfere with each other. When operating
several wireless systems at the same time, the follow-
ing channel selection is recommended:
for two systems: channels 1 and 5
for three systems: channels 1, 3, and 5
The transmitter station and the receiver station must
be set to the same channel, otherwise no transmission
will be possible. The units are factory-set to channel 1.
1) To adjust a channel, turn the selector switch (6) to
the corresponding position by means of a screw-
driver:

except for AV-220R
2) On the receiver station AV-220R, the internal buz-
zer is also switched on or off via the selector switch
(6): The buzzer is activated if one of the channels
marked with the speaker symbol
lected. In this adjustment, the buzzer will shortly
sound upon reception of a video signal.
