Connecting Cameras
Signal type
Unbalanced, ground common to chassis
Signal level
1 volt peak to peak
Signal termination
75 ohms, switchable in software
Recommended cable
Coaxial, 75 ohm impedance, 90% copper braid, copper
multicore central conductor.
Note:
Care should be taken to ensure all camera cable screens are firmly bonded
together and securely connected to multipole connector pins 16 & 37.

Configuring Audio
Two audio inputs (Audio 1 & Audio 2) are provided.
The inputs can be configured to operate as microphone or line level inputs. In
addition there is provision for a powered microphone input.
Input levels and powered mic input are selected by jumpers located on the main
PCB.
This is the circuit layout for revision B boards.

Note:
It is recommended that the AGC circuit is always on. AGC can be turned off
and the amplifier(s) set to high gain by linking the AGC jumpers to positions 2 & 3.
This should only be done when the input source is below 30mv max. Overloading
will occur if this level is exceeded.

Alarm Inputs
Six analog alarm inputs are provided. These are preconditioned and the example
inputs may vary as these can be pre assigned in software.
Alarm 1 - Door contact
Typically to indicate when the main door is open.
Alarm 2 - Panic button
Generally operated by the driver when under duress.
Alarm 3
Alarm 4
To detect low oil pressure.
Alarm 5 - Ignition sense
To detect ignition switch off and power down after a set period of time.
There is no pull up resistor on this input and therefore if a passive device is
connected a suitable pull up resistor must be included.
Alarm 6 - Tacho / speedo sensor
To log engine revs or vehicle speed.

Connecting vehicle power
TransVu is designed to run on vehicles with a negative earth or negative ground
system.
When the unit is running the power input is reflected on the power output pin, being
relay contacts switched under software control.
This allows ancillary equipment such as cameras etc. to be powered down
automatically preventing unnecessary drain on the vehicle battery.
Note:
Should the vehicle power be subject to variations outside the specification of
the ancillary equipment, cameras etc., a smoothed conditioned DC to DC power
supply must be fitted.
