    2. Installing the Equipment

    2.1 Safety instructions

    Warning

    The regulations of VDE0100 must be observed for

    installation and operation of the unit.

    Caution

    Establish all other connections before starting the unit by

    connecting it to 12VDC. Essential, a valid video signal must be connected to the desired input before power on the CTxx30HD.

    When you connect the CTxx30HD as described in the following sections, make sure that the "Caution" instructions given there

    are observed.

    Make sure that there is sufficient air circulation to ensure

    adequate cooling of the unit. External forced ventilation may be required if the unit is installed

    in a rack or cabinet.

    2.2 Connectors

    Figure 1 Input / Output connector of the CTxx30HD (V-mount Version)

    2.2.1 RF Connector

    The RF output signal of the Low-Power Amplifier is fed out at the N(f) connector on

    top of the unit.

    The CTxx30HD provides RF output of 1W (+30dBm) at 2.5GHz.

    2.2.2 Connecting Signal Sources

    The Video signal supplied by the camera has to be applied to the SDI BNC(f)

    connector of the transmitter.

    The analogue Audio signal supplied by the camera has to be applied to the Audio in

    5pol Lemo connector of the transmitter.

    2.2.3 Connecting the RF Output

    An omni directional antenna with N(m) connector can be directly mounted at the RF out socket.

  • Chapter x: Technical Specification

    Reference Guide: CTxx30HD Page 12 January 2014

    2.2.4 Connecting the UHF Data Input (optional)

    An UHF antenna with SMA(m) connector can be directly mounted at the UHF in socket.

    2.2.5 Connecting the 12VDC Supply Voltage

    Caution

    When using a battery or power pack, make sure that the maximum supply current is at least 3A and the output voltage matches the input voltage range of the CTxx30HD.

    Failure to comply with these requirements may cause fatal

    damage to the battery/power pack and/or CTxx30HD.

    2.2.6 Battery Powered Operation of the CTxx30HD

    Many types of batteries are available on the market and we tried to support the best ones.

    2.2.7 Shut-Down

    Caution

    To shut-down the unit you have to disconnect first the 12VDC supply voltage.

    After disconnection from the supply voltage by removing the battery or disconnecting

    the 12VDC supply cable, the other connecting cables can be removed from the unit.

    After setting the resolution (1080p/1080i/720p/PAL/NTSC) it is important to set the

    correct corresponding frame-rate.

    Please check, at all costs, which HD output signal and resolution the video signal has and which frame-rate the camera is set to.

    Figure 14 Change Frame Rate

  • Chapter x: Technical Description

    Reference Guide: CT2030HD Page A-9 January 2014

    Note

    With PsF, a progressive frame is sliced into two "segments", with

    the odd lines in one segment and the even lines in the other segment. This allows for a progressive picture to be processed through the same electronic circuitry that is used to store, process

    and route interlaced video. Technically, progressive segments are equivalent to interlaced fields, but unlike native interlaced video,

    there is no motion between the two fields to make up the video frame, both fields represent the same instant in time.

    Please see Table 1 for further details

    Note:

    This menu item is only visible if MIC is selected in the audio input menu.

    In the MIC-L PHANT and MIC-R PHANT sub-menu the use of a condenser Microphone is supported.

    Note:

    In general, phantom voltages are used to power electronics within

    condenser microphones. Condenser microphones require power for various parts of their operation, including impedance converters, preamplifier circuitry and, in some cases, to polarized microphone

    capsules. Phantom is usually a DC voltage ranging from 12 to 48 volts. Microphones draw current from this voltage based on their

    needs.

    Warning

    Before selecting MIC L/R PHANTOM on, please make sure

    that a microphone is connected to the audio inputs

    To edit the MIC PHANT sub-menu press the ok button for 2 seconds.

    In the sub menu Data Freq the frequency of the data receiver can be set. However, this setting is only valid for those models of the CTxx30HD Series, which have integrated data receivers for remote operation of the camera installed.

    At the bottom of the display a bar is displayed. This is an indicator of UHF receive strength. Red colour means low signal and stronger bar, also displayed in green

    means good signal at the antenna.

    The frequency can be changed in 10Khz steps.

    Please be aware that the RX frequency will have to match the TX frequency of the UHF data transmitter to enable remote operation of the camera.

    3.18 Encoder Firmware (20)

    This menu is reachable through menu point 14 (Software) and visible only after

    activation as long as the transmitter is powered ON. After the transmitter is switched OFF and ON again the menu will disappear and need to be activated via menu point

    14 again.

    The complete transmitter performance can be influenced with the changing of the

    Firmware!

    The menu provides the following firmware:

    Core 0: MPEG 1-frame | provides a minimum delay of 1frame but lower video quality

    Core 1: MPEG normal | provides a slightly higher delay but highest video quality

    Core 2: H.264 | MPEG-4/AVC compression mode

    Core 3: ASI input only instead of SDI

    To change the Core:

    Please go to the Menu-point Software (14)

    Next press the OK Button for 2 seconds. The Display will flash once.

    After that release the ok button and press the Up-Button, you have now visibility to the hidden menu FPGA CORE menu.

    As explained above you can now choose between the special settings HI SPEED, HI QUALITY, H.264 and ASI IN.

    To change the core, press the ok button for 2 seconds.

    3.19 AES Encryption

    To use the Encryption please be sure that the encryption mode is enabled. For further

    information please contact BMS.

    Once the Encryption is enabled you can switch it on and off and decide between several encryption modes.

    Therefore you have to connect your CT2030HD to a PC with a serial interface and use

    a terminal software.

    The settings for connection to the transmitter are:

  • Chapter x: Technical Description

    Reference Guide: CT2030HD Page A-26 January 2014

    When your terminal software starts you can check with the command ga for get all if the communication is working properly. The transmitter will respond with the current preset settings.

    Before you start with the encryption you have to choose the correct Encryption

    method. For AES128 (compatible for most of the units) use BCRYPT2.

    Use the command sscm bcrypt2 to enable the AES128. If the command was correct the transmitter will show the curser in a new line behind the command prompt. If the

    command was wrong the transmitter will shown the message:

    Syntax error, use: SSCM BCRYPT1|BCRYPT2|BMS6DA|BMS6DB|BMS4DB

    After selecting the correct encryption mode you have to enter a valid encryption key. Please be aware of that the same key is used in the receiver, otherwise you will not be

    able to decode the picture at the receiver.

    To enter a AES128 key you have to enter a 32 character HEX key. Therefor please use

    the characters 0-9 and a-f.

    With the command skey xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (x has to be replaced with your key) you are writing the key into the transmitter.

    If the key is too short or too long, the transmitter will response:

    Error: incorrect key size

    If the key contains not valid characters, the transmitter will response:

    Error: incorrect key

    After the key is set, due to safety reasons it is not possible to read the key.

    To activate the encryption use the command sscr on and the encryption is now active with your selected encryption mode and customized key.
