design and manufacture them ourselves. We like to think that it’s this level

knowledge and experience and we hope it helps you to make more
informed choices about the products you buy. We endeavour to provide
you with:
Free advice from knowledgeable and friendly staff

Opening Hours
I think I’ve found what I want...
When you’ve found the items you want, our mail/telephone/fax order form can
be found inside the back cover. It will help us to deliver the exact products you
need as quickly as possible if you quote their order codes – shown in the
catalogue mainly in square brackets thus [XXX] and on a yellow background.
If, before buying, you want to know anything more about a product than our
catalogue description, give us a call. We understand that it can be difficult to be
sure when ordering by post, and if you want us to we’ll run into the warehouse,
get the item you’re interested in and weigh it, measure it, describe it, or just sort
of wave it around near the phone. However, please be aware that while many of
our staff can help with technical questions, a little patience may on occasions be
required if they are engaged on other calls. Also, as our resident egg-heads need
their beauty sleep, please try to keep calls with technical queries between
9.00–5.30 Monday–Friday, 9.00–5.00 Saturdays.
Personal customer reference
If this catalogue was delivered to you by post,
along with it you should have received a
printed piece of paper headed ‘Customer
copy’ detailing the items you ordered. On the
top right of this sheet you will find your own
personal customer number. If you take time to
write this into the space below so that you can
quote it in future, we will be able to save you
time on the phone by locating your records
more easily. Please note we do not keep a
record of your credit card number so you will
require this when ordering by telephone.
If you got the catalogue in some other way,
your customer reference number will appear
on the Customer copy delivered with your first
order.
Our showrooms are open between
9.00am and 5.30pm Monday to Friday,
9.00am and 5.00pm Saturdays. Please
make customer service and technical calls
within these hours. We close on
Sundays and Bank Holidays.

Camcorder batteries
Our range of batteries keeps increasing, so phone if you can’t find the battery
you want in our list – we may still have it or be able to get it for you. Because
of exchange rate fluctuations, battery prices may change within the life of this
catalogue, so please call to check prices before ordering
Note that battery designs and specifications may also be subject to change
within the life of this catalogue. The pictures are typical for the batteries we
supply at time of going to press, although there may be small variations in
design from time to time.
Our ‘Slimfit’ batteries are the same size as the slim battery normally supplied
with the camcorder, but use Nickel Metal Hydride cells to cram the maximum
possible power into the casing. Select a ‘Slimfit’ model if you want to keep
size and weight to a minimum without compromising capacity.

legislation. Advantages: • Cheap and
plentiful. Disadvantages: • Need
careful handling to get the best
performance (see later) •
Environmentally unfriendly – they
must be disposed of carefully.
NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride)
A popular alternative to nicads.
Advantages: • Better energy density
than nicads, eg a typical 3400mAh
NiMH pack is no larger than a
conventional 2400mAh nicad • Not as
prone to handling problems.
Disadvantages: • Slightly more
expensive than nicads • Exhibit a fairly
high rate of self-discharge and ideally
should be charged immediately prior to
use.
Lead Acid (Pb)
Once common in large format
camcorders, now increasingly rare.
Advantages: • Relatively cheap •
Reliable and robust. Disadvantages: •
Heavy • Limited life span (typically 3
to 5 years).
What is a battery?
A rechargeable battery is made from a
number of individual cells in an outer
casing. These cells vary in voltage
according to their chemistry. In a nicad,
for example, each cell when charged
has a nominal voltage of just over 1.2V,
and a 6V camcorder nicad consists of 5
such cells wired in series, although
other configurations are possible.
Are all camcorder batteries the same?
No. Rechargeable camcorder batteries
can be distinguished by the type of
chemistry used in their cells. There are
four commonly used types:
Lithium Ion (Li-ion)
Nowadays the most popular type of
battery pack for camcorder use.
Advantages: • Very high energy
density so batteries are small and light.

Choosing Batteries
When you buy a camcorder, you are usually supplied with just the one
"standard" capacity battery for it, and as you have no doubt discovered
it runs the camcorder for a disappointingly short time. The choice of
extra power needs some careful thought, as you need to consider the
physical size, the weight and of course the price. This section is designed
to answer some of the questions we are most commonly asked.

This is an alternative way to rate a battery's capacity and is in many
ways a better system as it accurately reflects the amount of energy a
battery can store. For example, a 3.6V 2000mAh battery stores half the
amount of energy of a 7.2V 2000mAh battery. Watt hours can be
converted back to mAh by dividing the Watt-hour rating by the battery's
voltage, eg a 6Wh 6V battery equals 1Ah or 1000mAh.

How does this help me?
For camcorder models VM100,VM200,VM500,VM600,VM1200
Are higher capacity batteries bigger?
Generally, an increase in battery capacity is accompanied by an increase
in its physical size. For example a 2000mAh pack usually contains two
sets of the cells that make up a 1000mAh version and is usually about
twice as thick, and, as you'd expect, twice as heavy.

New batteries - first charge
New batteries can sometimes be difficult to charge. As the charging
process begins the battery voltage wavers, and this can be (mis)
interpreted as "battery full" by the chargers, which then stops charging.
Removing the battery from the charger then immediately putting it back
will often cure the problem, but with some battery/charger combinations
this may have to be repeated four or even five times. Once the battery
has been successfully given its first charge, there should be no problems
with subsequent charging.
Note on charging: NEVER TRY TO FURTHER CHARGE A BATTERY
THAT HAS GOT WARM it usually means that one or more of the cells is
fully charged. If in doubt, discharge first.

Camcorder power packs & battery belts
When considering a replacement battery, you can relate the capacity of
your existing battery to the potential replacement, and so be able to
calculate approximately how long it should last. For example, if your
current battery is rated at 1000mAh and gives you 30 minutes of running
time, a replacement battery rated at 1500mAh should last 1500/1000 or
1.5 times as long, ie 45 minutes. Some batteries on the market are quoted
in terms of potential running times rather than their actual capacity. You
might see a battery advertised as a "90 minute version", or similar. This
approach is a little misleading as the stated running times are invariably
produced by doing a continuous playback, with no LCD screen, no
zooming and usually at a constant temperature of 25°C. This is
considerably different from normal use and so you are unlikely to
achieve a similar result.
Camcorder batteries
mAh stands for milli amp hours. 1000 milli amps is actually the same as
1 amp, so you may find the ratings sometimes expressed as either 1 Ah
or 1000 mAh. There is no difference between these. Amperes or amps are
a measure of current. Thus a 1000mAh (or 1Ah) battery should be
capable of delivering 1 amp of current for a period of 1 hour. For the
more technically minded, the capacity tests are usually carried out at
100mA (1/10 of 1 amp) until the battery terminal voltage falls to 1.1V
per cell. This will always give a better figure than you achieve in a
camcorder.

New! - Battery Grips to fit Nikon and Canon
Digital SLRs. They provide a sturdy grip, useful
for hand-holding in portrait format and
crucially double the number of shots you can
take! They also come supplied complete with
two EL3 / NB2L type batteries. Not only that,
there’s also a holder that takes 6 AA batteries.
This can be a real lifesaver on remote shoots as
you can nip into a newsagent, grab some
batteries and carry on shooting even when your
main batteries are pancaked!
Great value!

I don't expect to use the camcorder for a while. How should I store the
batteries?
Nicad and NiMH batteries should be discharged correctly then stored in
a cool place. Lithium-ion batteries may be stored in any state of charge.
Lead/acid batteries should be stored fully charged, and also periodically
recharged during continued absence of use. All battery types should be
brought up to room temperature before use. A battery should not be left
on the camcorder, as even with the power switched off a small amount
of electric current still flows.
Visitors are welcome at our
showroom/warehouse. We have full
demonstration facilities – why not try
before you buy?

Battery tips: Cycling
Batteries tend to work best when used frequently. Used correctly once a
week most batteries should last at least five years, but if left charged on
the shelf, they can sometimes fail in as little as 3 months. When a
camcorder battery is put into service for the first time, its capacity will
be low, and it may prove difficult to charge. This is also true of batteries
that have been stored for a few months or more. The answer here is
cycling - that is repeatedly charging and then discharging the battery
several times in succession. Normally four of five charge/discharge
cycles will restore the battery back to its full capacity.

New! Eneloop Batteries from Sanyo!
These are a new type of hybrid battery - You get all the convenience
of a disposable in that they come fully charged and ready to use, yet
they can also be recharged, just like a Nicad/NiMH giving you the best
of both worlds! They have an incredibly low rate of self discharge
meaning they can be charged and shelved ready to use when its
convenient to you. A conventional rechargeable battery, if charged
and left on the shelf would retain only about 75% of its capacity after
six months and will have lost virtually all its charge after 1 year. An
Eneloop battery still retains 90% after six months and 85% after 1
year! They can be recharged in any charger suitable for NiMH
batteries.

Camcorder Holiday Checklist
If you are taking your camcorder on holiday then its worth considering the
following;
Batteries
Have you got enough batteries? Bear in mind that in general, batteries perform
well in warm climates, less so in colder ones. Don’t leave your batteries (or
camcorder for that matter) in direct sunlight or in a car on a sunny day if you can
avoid it. If you are going somewhere colder, try to keep your batteries about your
person to keep them warm. If you have purchased batteries for your holiday then
remember that new batteries will perform better the third or fourth time they are
used. If you can, it is a good idea to charge and discharge them a couple of times
before you go, particularly if they have not been used for a while.
Charging
What is the mains voltage at the resort? Check the label on the base of your
battery charger carefully. If it says ‘input voltage 110-240V’ then it can safely be
used anywhere. If it says ‘220-240V only’ then DO NOT attempt to use it on 110V;
it will overheat and severe damage will occur. Most (but not all) of Europe is 220V
and so any UK 240V charger should work satisfactorily. America and certain other
destinations are 110V. Contrary to popular belief, a multi-voltage input charger
(i.e.110-240V) will take the same amount of time to charge a battery whatever
voltage it is supplied with.
Car power
If you take your car on holiday, or hire one upon arrival, it is well worth
considering the convenience of a car charger. Car chargers usually work whether
the car engine is running or not, and consume next to no current when compared
to a car batteries capacity.
Blank tape
Have you got enough tape? Tape can be bought at most resorts but it is likely to
be much more expensive. Be careful – fraud is common, and the trademarks of
most leading brands are often illegally reproduced on duff tape. Tape intended for
Tel 0870 990 9000 Fax 01332 830551
different countries is usually based upon a different system to the UK PAL (eg
NTSC, SECAM etc). It will work just the same, but the running times will be
different from that stated on the box. The grade of tape you use DOES make a
surprising difference. Don’t entrust your memories of the holiday of a lifetime to a
cheap rubbish tape. Never store or transport your tape without its protective
sleeve, you risk damage to the tape surface and may transfer dirt and dust to your
camcorder itself.
Carrying case
Have you got a comfortable and protective case that will accommodate both your
camcorder and its accessories? Remember that you should usually carry your
charger and batteries with your camcorder as hand luggage to keep airport
security happy, but check this with your tour operator before departure.
Filters
To protect your lens then make sure that you have either a UV or skylight fitted. If
you want the sea or the swimming pool to look like it does in the brochure then a
polariser is a must. See our filter selection guide for more details. Another must
for any holiday is a lens cleaning cloth and/or packet of wipes. Hot hands
covered with sun tan oil don’t half mess up filters and lenses!
Rain cover
Hopefully it won’t rain on your holiday, but spray from the sea can have terrible
effects on your camcorder. A rain cover offers good protection from this and takes
up very little room in the gadget bag.
Tripod
If you have room, a lightweight tripod will come in very handy. Not only will it
enable clear steady shots, but it also gives you an opportunity to put yourself in
the picture!
Finally and most importantly, before you leave test all of your equipment. Include
any new purchases and make sure that everything is working properly. It would
be very frustrating to arrive at your destination and find that you were unable to
charge your batteries!

The Powerstation Quattro works like four chargers
within one housing. Each battery is individually
charged to achieve maximum battery capacity.
There are four thermo-sensors, one to protect
each battery, plus an additional safety timer. The
charge control system is software based; each
battery is assessed before the fast charge begins.
Defective or non-rechargeable batteries are
rejected. When a battery is fully charged the sensitive –dV system will
switch off the fast charge automatically. Once the fast charge is
complete a control system switches to a low current maintenance
charge to keep the battery at its maximum capacity. LEDs enable you
to see at a glance what is happening to each battery. The unit even
features a built in cooling fan to ensure that it's working temperature
remains within acceptable limits. Supplied complete with worldwide
universal mains adaptor, 12 volt car lead and four high performance

Adaptors & Convertors
How do I know which one I need?
One VA is approximately equal to one Watt, assuming the load is
purely resistive (and most AV gear is). You can calculate the power
rating (in Watts or VA) of your equipment, and hence determine the
rating of the voltage converter to use, by multiplying the current it
draws by the voltage. Here are some examples:
Electric shaver 0.05A x 120V = 6VA use [USM45]
Radios 0.1A x 120V = 12VA use [USM45]
CD player 0.15A x 120V = 18VA use [USM45]
Christmas tree lights 0.2A x 120V = 24VA use [USM45]
Games Console 0.35A x 120V = 36VA use [USM100]
Televisions vary (check rating) but typically [300VA] use [USM300]
Computer 5A x 120V = 600VA use [USM1000]
NB these are just examples, please always check the actual rating!

•KE•
takes one single DC input and "shares" it
between up to five outputs. This allows you to
replace up to five mains adaptors with just the
one, freeing off some valuable mains socket
space and generally tidying up your system.
The input voltage can be anything between 5
and 18V DC and the output voltage will be approximately 1 volt
less than the input. The available current will be shared between
the outputs. In practice, if you'd got say four devices all of which
use 12V DC at between 100 and 200mA (a very common
specification for most gadgets and processors) then you could
replace all of these with one mains adaptor rated at 12V DC

INTELLIGENT MAINS PANELS
FOR COMPUTERS
At last a genuinely
useful intelligent
mains distribution
panel for your PC.
Simply plug the PC into the designated socket and then use the five
remaining sockets for your monitor, printer, cable modem, LAN
equipment, amplified speakers, in fact anything at all that you normally
switch on and off at the same time as your computer! The mains panel
constantly monitors the amount of current drawn by the PC and as soon
as it detects it has been switched off (or gone into 'sleep' mode) the
power to the other outlets is automatically switched off. As soon as the
PC is switched on again (or wakes from sleep) all the peripherals are
powered again. It also includes a 10 second delay to allow for
peripherals such as printers and scanners that need to "park" when the
computer is switched off. Not only that, it includes full surge protection
circuitry. A brilliant device that saves you time and money!
[IMPCA]

FOR AV AMPLIFIERS
A great product for anybody whose
home cinema amplifier features a
switched AC outlet. This clever unit
acts as a switched six way mains
distribution block. It detects the
presence of power from your
amplifiers outlet and relay switches full
mains power to all six outlets. When
the amp is switched off, power is
removed again. This means that just the one power button on your
amplifier can now switch your CD player, DVD player, Tuner, Subwoofer, games console, television, plasma screen, projector - in fact
anything you like! Not only does this save time, it also saves power
and gives you peace of mind. A great innovative product.
Two versions are available:
For amplifiers with a 3 pin (Bulgin) type mains outlet
[IMPBP]
£29.99
For amplifiers with 2 pin (euro type) IEC type outlets
[IMPEP]
£29.99
Please note: if your AV amp does not have either of the above types
of switched outlet you can still achieve the same results by using the
current sensing mains panel [IMPCA]. With the AV amp plugged into
the computer outlet the IMPCA will control the supply to the other
outlets as and when the amp is switched on.

ONECLICK INTELLIGENT PLUG ADAPTOR
This is a really useful product that
saves both time and money. A lower
cost version of the popular IMPCA,
this has all the clever electronics built
into a simple plug adaptor. There's
one master socket (for your PC) and
two slave sockets for the peripherals.
Of course you can use an ordinary
mains distribution block to extend
these outlets if needed. Simply plug
your PC into the master socket and
connect your associated peripherals
(printers, speakers, modem, monitor
etc) into the slave sockets. The iPlug constantly monitors the amount
of current drawn by the PC and as soon as it detects it has been
switched off (or gone into hibernate mode) the power to the other
outlets is automatically switched off. As soon as the PC is switched on
again all the peripherals are powered again. It also includes a 10
second delay to allow for peripherals such as printers and scanners
that need to "park" when the computer is switched off. Not only
that, it includes full surge protection circuitry. A brilliant device!

Why do I need a video light?
Most modern camcorders claim that they will function in very low light
conditions, ie just one candle power (or less!). This is certainly true, and
you will get an image if you try it. However, the autofocus will usually
perform badly, with a lot of ‘hunting’ in and out, and the picture often
lacks colour contrast, and will be very grainy. These problems can be
overcome by use of a low wattage video light.
Whilst the human eye tends to see all sources of additional light the same
as daylight, there are in fact quite strong variations in the colour of light
(sometimes called colour temperature). For instance, a normal tungsten 60
or 100W bulb has an orange cast to its light, whereas fluorescent tubes
tend to have either a green, or sometimes red, cast. This is why your
camcorder will have different settings for indoor or outdoor use. Video
lights use halogen bulbs which are very close in colour to ordinary
daylight and so they can help to reduce these colour casts when filming
indoors. Also, if you are videoing photographs or using an on-camera
slide copier then a video light makes an ideal daylight type light source
for this.
How do I attach a light to my camcorder?
On-camera video lights are usually designed to be attached to the
camcorder by the accessory shoe. This is a 3/4” square section very
similar to the flashgun ‘hot shoe’ found on most SLR cameras, but for
video it has no electrical connections – it is usually just a mechanical
means of support. It seems less and less common for a camcorder to be
fitted with this shoe as standard, but there are a number of inexpensive
accessories which will provide one for you. Please refer to the ‘SUPPORT’
section of our catalogue for more information.
An advantage of camera mounted lights is that the light and camera
always move together, so when the end result is viewed you are not as
aware of the additional light as you would be if the light and camera were
separate.

Batteries used with a video light
It is important to realise that when a nicad battery is used to power a
video light, the light MUST be switched off immediately it starts to go
dim. If the light is allowed to go very faint or out completely then overdischarge damage to the battery will occur, resulting in the battery either
not charging or failing to hold a charge. This is why it is not a good idea
to use a video light as a discharger.

Hama Magnum LED Digi Light
How long will a video light run for?
Video lights are very power hungry. The current drawn can be calculated
quite easily by dividing the wattage of the light by the voltage of the
battery. For example a 20 watt 6V light will need 3.3 Amps (20W divided
by 6 volts = 3.3 Amps or 3300 milli-Amps). So, a 1000mAh battery will
only be able to provide 3.3 Amps for around 18 minutes, (1000/3300 x 60
minutes = 18.18). A 30 or 40 watt light is going to decrease this usable
time even more. In other words, use the light sparingly, and do not leave
it on if you are not actually filming.

Hahnel 6V light accessories and spares
New from Hama, this is a pocket sized video
light that uses super bright LED’s instead of a
conventional bulb. LED’s use a lot less power
than a bulb so although this uses just two tiny
AAA batteries it can run continuously for up to
two hours! The rated output is 12 lux, ideal for
an on-camera fill in light. Use it in sunlight to
eliminate harsh shadows or in poor light to
assist focussing and reduce grain. The colour

A common lighting problem is the harsh effect that studio
lighting can have on the subject when it is shone directly at the
subject. Whilst 'bouncing' the light off reflective umbrellas can
reduce the glare, a better result can often be gained by using a
softbox. Measuring 38 x 48cm, the Unomat Softbox has a rear
'box' made from strong reflective material, black on the outside
with a white translucent nylon front panel. This white panel 'softens' the
light and gives a much more even covering over the subject.
The Softbox comes complete with mount (comprising a metal
ring into which four plastic, flexible rods are inserted to give the
box it's rigidity. On the rear of the bracket fits an angled bracket
which attaches to a UAC Universal Accessory Bracket. This allows
easy fixing of the softbox to light stands etc.

What do add-on lenses do ?
Since the zoom lenses that are built-in to the camcorder cannot be
removed, then the additional lenses that you can buy are strictly
speaking lens convertors. This is because they fix to the end of the
existing built-in lens and change its range in some way. The lenses are
all rated in terms of their magnification factor. Anything rated at greater
than a 1 Times (1X) is considered a telephoto, and anything rated at less
than a 1X is a wide angle. A wide angle will increase your field of view
(you can see more in the viewfinder), a telephoto will decrease your
field of view (the image is enlarged, as if you were closer to it).
Generally, wide angle lenses are useful for filming indoors (or for
particular scenic shots outdoors), and telephoto lenses are useful for
when you can’t get close enough to your subject to fill the viewfinder
(sport, wildlife, etc).

What do the lens numbers mean?
All video camcorders have a zoom lens built-in as standard. Depending
upon the particular model, this lens will have a rating of anything from
say 6X (6 times) to 12X or even more. There are considerable differences
between various makes and models of camcorders in terms of where
their zooms start and end. To find a common point of reference for each
model, it is easiest to think of the widest possible wide angle setting on
you current camcorder as being 1X or ‘1 times’. It then follows that a 6X
zoom will enlarge that image in the viewfinder by 6 times. If, for
example, a camcorder which has a zoom range of 1X to 8X were to have
a 2.0X lens convertor attached, then its new telephoto range would be
from 2X to 16X. Similarly, if the same camcorder were to have a 0.5X
wide angle convertor attached to it, then the maximum area viewed
would be twice as great as before, and its zoom range would then be
changed to 0.5X to 4X.
Bear in mind that the magnification factors of most add-on lenses are
based on the degree of change in visible area, not on the linear
(horizontal and vertical) changes. For example, if a camcorder was
focused on an image 6m wide by 4m high (ie of area 24m2) which
completely filled the frame, then fitting a 2.0X telephoto lens would
reduce that area of the image which filled the frame to 12m2, half what
it was, or approximately 4.2m wide by 2.8m high (see diagram).

[HRD52W]
£99.99
Can I still use autofocus?
Yes - the autofocus mechanism of the camcorder should not be affected
by fitting a lens (or a filter), unless your camera has an infra-red
autofocus system. In this case, when using an additional convertor lens
you will have to switch to manual focus.
Anything less than a 0.5X, for instance a 0.38X, is classed as a super
wide angle or ‘fish-eye’ convertor. These give an extremely wide field of
view and although the effect can be dramatic, any verticals in the
picture (telegraph poles, door frames etc) can appear somewhat bent
out of shape.

How are the lenses attached?
All camcorders have a screw thread which is on the inside front edge of
the lens. Lens convertors simply screw onto this. The thread size will be
of a specific diameter in millimetres. The actual thread size is sometimes
printed around the lens barrel on the inside or outside front edge (see
below). Failing this it is usually contained in the technical data section in
the handbook. It is most commonly referred to as filter size, as this is
indeed the same place that filters are attached.
Lens and filter thread sizes
Around the edge of the lens barrel on your camcorder there is usually
some printed information. If you see the diameter symbol (∅) followed
by a number (eg ∅37), then this number is the thread diameter you
need to know when ordering and connecting filters and lenses. Two
numbers connected by a squiggle, eg 23~43mm, is the focal length of the
zoom lens, not its diameter.

COOLPIX TELEPHOTO LENS!
How can I avoid vignetting?
There are two general rules which apply, dependent upon the lens:
Wide Angle: Try to ensure that the lens thread size is a direct match for
the camcorder, i.e. if possible avoid stepping rings. If you have to use
stepping rings then make sure that they are step-up, ie. the camcorder
thread is smaller than the lens thread.
Telephoto : Generally speaking, you can usually use a small percentage
of your zoom range before vignetting becomes noticeable, but this
becomes less and less the greater the lens factor. Lenses at 1.5X don’t
usually vignette. At 2X, some do and some don’t and at above 2X most
will vignette at the wide angle setting. As you would normally be using
it only at the tele end of the zoom range then step up and step down
rings can be used without any problems.

with any other model that has a
28mm filter thread). It is nicely made with coated glass optics and a
metal barrel construction with a knurled grip and smooth focussing
action. It has an excellent close focussing range of 30cm (at which
distance a 1.5cm object will fill the screen on a 900). A useful addition
for any Coolpix owner.

Dimensions 32mm x 64mm
Things to be aware of:
• To frame your shot you must use the display panel and not the
viewfinder. • Because the magnification is so high it can be very
difficult to hand hold - a tripod is recommended. • Vignetting
(darkening of the edges) will occur if used at anything other than the
"tele" end of your zoom range.
[KDT60]
£89.99
What is vignetting?
Vignetting (pronounced Vin-yet-ing) or ‘tunnel effect’ can sometimes
occur when a lens has been attached and the camcorder’s zoom is set
towards the wide angle end of its range. What can happen is that the
camcorder attempts to look through the side of the lens body, with the
end result that the corners of the picture appear dark, or in extreme
cases the effect can be like looking through a drainpipe.

Filters
What is a filter?
A filter is simply an optical
device, usually made from coated
glass or sometimes resin. Its
purpose is to alter in some way
the light that enters the lens, and
hence produce an effect on the
recording.
How do I attach filters to my
camcorder?
All camcorder lenses have a fine
thread machined onto the lens
barrel and the filter simply
screws on over the lens itself. Be
careful – do not over tighten a
filter as they can sometimes be
very difficult to remove. Thread
sizes differ from make to make,
and the thread size is usually
printed around the edge of the
lens, or failing that look in the
technical data section of your
owners manual. nb Some
camcorders lens covers clip into a
special plastic housing which is
screwed on in the place where
your filter needs to be attached. If
this is the case then just unscrew
the lens cap housing, fit the filter
and then screw the lens cap
housing back on over the filter.
Can I use more than one filter at
once?
Yes - all our filters are threaded
both sides so that one filter can
be screwed on top of another.
I already have some filters for
my SLR camera – can I use these
on my camcorder?
Yes - a wide variety of step-up
and step down rings are available
to match the thread sizes. It is
advisable to use step up rings
only (ie larger filter onto a
smaller lens) otherwise
vignetting can occur.
Circular polarising filters
This filter has the same effect as
Polaroid sunglasses, ie it eliminates unwanted reflections and
helps colour saturation. It will
deepen the blue of the sky and
make clouds stand out more
strongly. Particularly useful on
holiday – it helps to make the sea
look a little more like it did in the
brochure! There are two types of
polarising filter available, circular
and linear. Broadly speaking all
camcorders should use only the
circular type, whereas manual
focus SLR cameras (remember
those!) should use the linear type.
Polarising filters can be freely
rotated once fitted, this allows
you to find the desired position
for maximum effect, but beware
the autofocus as this sometimes
rotates the lens barrel! It can at
first be difficult to gauge the
effect of a polarising FILTER
through a mono viewfinder, and
it is best to become familiar with
the filter by using your TV as a
24
monitor. Another little known
fact is that a polariser also
reduces the overall amount of
light by around 2 ‘stops’, ie a
similar effect to that of an ND4
filter. Altogether, a polariser is
possibly the most useful filter you
can buy.

Warm filters
These filters are slightly orange
tinted and have the effect of
making anyone in shot appear to
be suntanned. It will enhance the
gold of sands and mellow out any
harsh light. On cloudless days, the
mid-day light can be very blue
and the footage can appear
almost cold. The warm filter gives
the effect of warm evening
sunlight.

SLR camera use, (and camcorders
with manual white balance), as
the camcorders auto white
balance tends to ‘correct’ any
effect produced. This filter also
makes an excellent lens protector
against finger marks, rain spots,
general dirt and dust and accidental damage. They are easy to
clean, and, if it becomes
scratched or broken then simply
throw it away and buy another
one. The average camcorder lens
assembly would be in excess of
£100 to replace, and may be out
of action for some time. A useful
trick with these filters is to smear
Vaseline around the edge to
produce some interesting effects
(don’t try this with your lens!) If
you buy no other filters, one of
these is an absolute must.

In general, our filters are
usually manufactured as
single coated optical
glass or resin whereas the
‘digital’ series are
multi coated.
Ultraviolet (UV) filters
The ultra violet filter is a very
pale yellow and is designed to
absorb ultra violet rays and so
reduce the blue haze from
distant landscapes or seascapes.
Very useful for protecting the
lens surface, it can be left
permanently attached.

Neutral density ND4
This filter is purely designed to
reduce the amount of light
entering the lens, without
affecting the colour tones, ie a
neutral colour shift. Particularly
useful in strong light and high
contrast situations for example,
snow or Mediterranean beach
scenes where the camcorder’s
auto exposure can be operating
out of its normal range. It can
also be used to force the camcorder to use a slower shutter
speed for creative effects.

Graduated filters
Close up filter
As befits its
description, the
image is very misty
around the edge
and gradually
becomes clear until,
at the centre, the image is
unaffected. Used sparingly it can
produce very nice effects on
wedding videos and family shots.
Available in 5 face star and 6 face
parallel . Make your own
Bohemian Rhapsody video!
Produces multi picture in picture
type effects. The filter can be
rotated once fitted to vary the
effect.
These filters change
from clear at one
edge to coloured at
the other, and are
designed to help
you cope with
extremes in contrast. When
filming outdoors, the sky is
usually brighter than the
foreground and the camcorder
will ‘average out’ the overall
exposure. This usually makes the
sky look rather washed out. A
graduated filter, positioned with
its coloured area over the sky,
can greatly enhance scenic shots
by giving a more natural result.
There are three types of
graduated filter to be commonly
found – blue and grey, both of
which darken the sky without
altering its colour significantly,
and tobacco, used mainly to
enhance sunset/sunrise shots.
Note that the filter rotates within
its housing once fitted, so if your
camcorder thread rotates when
focussing you should ideally
switch to manual focus, focus
and then position the filter
correctly. Be wary of panning or
tilting when using a graduated
filter.
Multi-image 3
face star filters
Graduated tobacco
filters
Strictly speaking a lens, but it is in
this section because it has more
in common with a filter. There
may be occasions when you will
want to video small objects like
photographs, coins, stamps or
even insects. The problem is that
you cannot get a sharp image
closer than your camcorders
minimum focusing distance. A
close up filter acts a little like a
reading glass and enables you to
focus, use most of your zoom
range and maintain a sharp
image whilst working very close
to your subject. They are
available in four strengths or
‘diopters’ (nb a diopter is the
number of times the focal length
of the lens can be divided into 1
metre). A +1 diopter is the
weakest magnification, and +4 is
the strongest. If you have never
used one before, a +3 strength is
probably the most useful.
**Tip** Camcorder shake will
also be magnified so it is best to
use a decent table top tripod.
Close up filters in sets of three,
(+1, +2 and +4 diopter). These
filters are ‘stackable’ ie you can
combine a +1 filter and a +3
filter to get +4 diopter, so this set
gives every option from +1 to +7.

Cross screen filters
Also called a ‘star’
filter, the effect is to
turn any bright light
source within the
picture into a star. Very effective
for night time city shots, party
lights etc. If your camcorder has
manual iris then the effect can be
manually altered, although auto
exposure still give great results.

When ordering a lens or filter you will need to have the filter thread
size of your camcorder to hand. This can usually be found as part of
the camcorder specification in the handbook, and/or will be marked
around the camcorder lens as a number preceded by a diameter
symbol (∅), for example ∅37 denotes a 37mm thread size.
Not all filters come in all thread sizes, but you can still use the filter
you want, even if not listed as available to fit your camcorder. Simply
order the nearest larger size filter together with the appropriate
stepping ring. For example, to use a 6 face parallel multi image filter
on a camcorder with 37mm thread, order the 46mm filter and a
37–46mm step-up ring.

There is a big difference between
out of focus and soft focus! Next
time you have the opportunity to
study an old Hollywood Marilyn
Monroe film for instance, look
carefully at the difference in effect
between a close up shot of the
leading lady and a close up shot of
the leading man. Almost always the
camera trained on the leading lady
is fitted with a soft focus filter. It
takes away any harshness from the
lighting and generally makes things
‘easy on the eye’, giving a more
misty, romantic feel. It can be used
with considerable effect in a wide
variety of situations, not just close
up portrait shots. If your camcorder
has manual iris control then the
effect can be slightly enhanced or
decreased.

“Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?” Sam Goldwyn
All About Sound
The solution is to monitor the sound whilst you
are filming. If your camcorder has an
headphone socket, then simply connect a pair
of headphones. If it doesn’t, then a device such
as the Keene Electronics Headphone Amplifier
will provide one for you. It has been said that
not monitoring the sound when filming can
give results as unpredictable as closing your
eyes while of looking through the viewfinder!

The soundtrack to your video footage is very
important but often overlooked. A poor
soundtrack can make even the most
spectacular piece of film appear dull or
amateurish. Sound can be thought of in two
separate stages; firstly the sound that is
recorded whilst you are filming, and secondly
the sound that can be added or ‘mixed’ when
you edit. The human ear is very complex, and
you can easily single out and concentrate on
one particular sound against a background of
many others. Your camcorder microphone
cannot do this, and will faithfully pick up and
record all sounds that are present. When you
come to play back your footage, you may often
be surprised by hearing things you hadn’t
noticed when you were filming.
On Camera microphones
following on the success of the truly
superb VideoMic (RVM), Rode have now
expanded the range and produced a true
stereo microphone along the same lines.
The build quality is excellent with an all
metal case giving it a truly bomb-proof
feel and again using a fully suspended
design to keep camera noise to an
absolute minimum. It utilises two capsules
in an X/Y configuration to give true stereo
recordings with good soundstage whilst
still offering a high level of rear rejection
and low noise. It’s powered by a standard
9V PP3 type battery which is constantly
illuminated green to let you know all is
well and battery life is over 100 hours.
There’s a switchable high pass filter to
reduce unwanted low frequency rumble, and also a switch for 10db
attenuation, useful for recording in high sound pressure level
situations eg concerts, racetracks, train stations etc. It has a standard
hot-shoe mount and the shock mount body is also threaded for
mounting on a boom arm or tripod. The connection is via a 3.5mm
stereo mini jack. Also included in the box is the Rode “Dead Cat” Pro
furry windjammer. This is a really lovely bit of kit.

RODE VideoMic (stereo)
RODE have a name for making large diaphragm
condenser microphones for recording studios and
musical applications. They’ve now turned their
attention to the Video market with some rather
excellent results.
The RODE VideoMic really is a superb bit of kit.
The build quality is excellent and the body even
incorporates a fully suspended shock mount to
keep camera noise to an absolute minimum. The body design also
provides a small offset which helps keep the mic out of view on wide
angle shots. The audio quality is also excellent, in fact at this price,
unprecedented. It’s powered by a standard 9V PP3 type battery, not
included by Rode, but we throw one in because we’re nice like that!
Rather than the Sennheiser ‘flicker’ the Rode power LED is constantly
illuminated green to let you know all is well. The battery life is over 100
hours. There’s also a switchable high pass filter to reduce unwanted low
frequency rumble. It has a standard hot-shoe mount and the shock
mount body is also threaded for mounting on a boom arm or tripod. The
connection is via a 3.5mm stereo mini jack. If you want to improve your
movie soundtracks this is a Godsend.
Features:
• Studio recording quality.
• Rugged fibre-reinforced ABS construction.
• 9 V battery operation.
• Custom designed integral wind shield.
• Condenser Microphone.
• Low noise circuitry.
• Low handling noise.
• Integral hot shoe mount.

My camcorder manual says ‘only use a microphone of XXXX ohms’,
what does this mean ?
Microphones are generally classed as either ‘high impedance’ or ‘low
impedance’. A high impedance microphone would be in the the region
of 50,000 ohms, and a low impedance usually below 10,000 ohms. Most
domestic camcorders are configured for low impedance microphones,
and although the manual may state an impedance of say 1500 ohms, in
practice there would be little audible difference between one of this
specific value, or any other microphone that could be classed as low
impedance.

BEYER DYNAMIC PROFESSIONAL SHOTGUN MICROPHONES
The MCE 86 series shotgun microphones can be used for video
recordings, lecterns or theatre applications. The microphones are
extremely light and rugged and therefore ideal for mounting onto
cameras or camcorders. The can be
used for outdoor applications and in
studios with fishpole booms or as
handhelds. The electrostatic
transducer element and the
hypercardioid/lobe polar pattern
result in an excellent polar pattern
with high sensitivity. Due to its
construction and integrated active
filter the microphone is insensitive towards wind and vibrations
caused by zoom motors. Each sound source is reproduced absolute
clearly. Weighing only 92 g, the MCE 86 is one of the lightest shotgun
microphones of all. Due to the rugged construction and non-glare
Nextel-finish the microphones are insensitive to mechanical strains.
The MCE 86 requires phantom power, if this is not available the MCE
86 S version should be used.

Microphones
Microphones are designed to pick up sound in a certain way, and can
be classified accordingly;
Omni-directional
Will pick up sound equally from a 360 degree circle around it. It is of
most use when placed amongst a group of people, on a table at a
meeting for instance.
Cardioid
Will pick up sound mainly from the direction in which it is pointed.
This is almost always the type of microphone that is fitted as standard
to your camcorder.
Super cardioid
Similar to the cardioid, but has a narrower field of response and so is
more directional. Sometimes referred to as shotgun microphones, these
are the most common accessory type of microphone, bought to
supplement the camcorder’s own microphone.
Hyper cardioid
A fairly specialised piece of equipment that has an even narrower
response field than the super cardioid.
Stereo
Most people change microphones because they want a different
response pattern to that of the on-board microphone. To go very
directional it is difficult to preserve a stereo image as both left and right
elements pick up sound at the same time. To get a directional response
with a stereo camcorder choose a mono microphone and use a stereo
to mono conversion lead. The other main reason for using an offcamera microphone is to defeat motor noise, in which case choose a
stereo microphone to maintain the soundstage.
Other microphone groups include:
Tie clip
A very small and unobtrusive microphone, designed to be attached to a
tie or lapel. The microphone is connected to a small battery holder
which will fit easily into a pocket, and this is in turn connected to the
camcorder by a good length of cable (usually 12 – 15 ft). They have a
number of uses; to add commentary at the time you are filming, to
position on string or key instruments, or for interview type situations.
Radio microphone
Consists of a matching radio transmitter and receiver. The transmitter
has a socket which will accept either the tie clip microphone provided
with the unit, or if you prefer, a separate microphone can be used. The
receiver plugs into the microphone socket on the camcorder.

Boundary microphones
Why use a boundary microphone?
Boundary microphones (also know as PZM or Pressure Zone
Microphones) are designed to minimise echo and give a consistent
acoustic when recording in a large room. This is achieved by placing
the pick up capsule as close as possible to a flat surface (the
"boundary"). The microphone then picks up sound waves reflected
from the boundary itself and cuts down on the unwanted reflected
sounds that would otherwise produce echo and a less clear recording.
In essence, placing a boundary mic on a table means that the table
surface itself acts as part of the microphone pickup and so provides a
great way of getting consistent sound from a group of people sitting
around a table. This makes it ideal for weddings (head table) and also
for conferences, lectures and even stage performances

boundary microphone from Audio Technica

My camcorder manual says ‘do not use an external mic which is

This is there as a safety precaution against some microphones which do
not isolate the DC supply from the microphone jack. Such models are
rare nowadays, and all those we supply are fully isolated and can be
used without problems.

If I plug in an external microphone, what happens to the sound from
the camcorders own mic ?
The internal microphone is automatically disconnected when you plug
in an external microphone. In fact if you want to you can mute the
camcorder microphone by just plugging a suitable jack plug into the
microphone socket.
Audio
This is a high quality miniature
condenser microphone that provides
natural and articulate vocal
reproduction when used as a clip-on
lavalier and excels in pickup of
acoustic guitar. The PRO 70 is designed
to make music and speech clearly and
comfortably audible, yet never draw
attention to itself or its operation. The
microphone is also equipped with a
low-frequency roll-off switch that
allows for reduced pickup of room
noise. It can be either battery or
phantom powered and its cardioid
polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides and rear,
improving isolation of the desired sound source.
Specifications
element: fixed-charge back plate, permanently polarized condenser
Polar pattern: Cardioid
Frequency response:100-14,000 Hz
Impedance: 200 ohms
SN ratio:67 dB, 1 kHz at 1 Pa
Power: phantom or 1.5V AA/UM3
weight: 8g
Dimensoins: 0.98mm X 10.2mm diameter
Connector:3-pin XLRM-type
Cable: 1.8m permanently attached
Note that this uses a balanced (XLR) microphone so if your camcorder
uses mini-jack you'll need an adaptor KAMT.

QUICK TIPS - MULTIPLE RADIO MICROPHONES
Unfortunately you can't use several radio mic transmitters with just one
radio mic receiver even if they're all set to the same frequency. It might
seem logical that it ought to work but in practice it won't. Think of it in
terms of your car radio - if you listen to two station broadcasting on the
same frequency you don't hear two nicely mixed radio broadcasts, you
just get interference. The only way to use multiple mics is with multiple
receivers all set to different frequencies. The output of these different
receivers can then be routed to a mixer and back into your
camcorder/PA or whatever is required. Alternatively, since the outputs
are mono, you could route just two microphones to your camcorder
directly, one to the left channel, one to the right channel (assuming of
course you have a stereo mic input). If the inputs aren't separately
socketed you might find our adaptor KA131 useful (3.5mm stereo jack to
two 3.5mm mono sockets).

When vocalists and presenters say words containg
the letters “p” and “b” they expel a rush of air
which can cause the microphone diaphragm to
“pop”, giving a thump on the finished recording.
This pop shield dissipates the air and removes the
problem. It also provides a good visual reference
point as to where you should be positioned when
speaking, as you often hear fluctuations in level
and tone as the speaker when moving away from
and around the microphone. Simply clamps on to
any microphone stand with an adjustable goose

Rycote GustBuster windjammer
Wind noise
If you are recording outside, even a gentle breeze can produce an
unwelcome roaring sound. Some camcorders have a ‘wind cut’ switch as
an attempt to counteract the problem. Usually this is a low frequency
filter, and although it does remove some of the ‘boom’ from the wind
noise, it is not totally effective. The best solution is to use a wind gag.
This is essentially a furry sock which encloses the microphone. The fur
reduces air velocity around the microphone, without affecting the sound.
You may occasionally see articles that tell you how to make a wind gag
from an old sock, pencil case or whatever. Unfortunately, these home
brewed devices usually reduce all the sound, not just the wind noise.
Purpose made wind gags use an ‘acoustically transparent’ material
which does not reduce overall sound levels. This explains why they
perhaps seem a little expensive for what they are.
Compact camcorders which have the
microphone built in flush to the
camcorder‘s body can still benefit
from a windgag. The Rycote
GustBuster (previously known as the
Integral MWJ) is a universal solution
which caters for the variation in
camera body design by using two
loops of elastic to hold itself on to the camcorder, one looping over
the lens and the other around the rear. This permits easy fitting and
removal and does not require any modifications that might mark the
camcorder body

Condenser microphones and Dynamic microphones - what’s the
difference?
The main difference is that condenser microphones (also called electret)
need an external power source to work, whereas dynamic microphones
do not. The power for a condenser mic can either comes from a small
battery housed within the microphone body, or by the "phantom" power
method where power is obtained from the recording device via the
cable.

Some golden rules of sound recording
• Get the microphone as close as possible to the subject.
• If you can’t get the microphone near try and raise it as high as
possible above the general ‘hubbub’ of conversation near to you.
• ‘The more you open the window, the more the muck flies in.’ This
basically means that the further you are from the sound source, the
higher the camcorder will set its recording level, and so the more
rubbish it will record along with the sound that you want.

Digital audio – what’s what?
In the earlier days of digital audio the conversion from digital back into
analogue was always performed within the CD player itself. Now,
particularly with the advent of DVD, the thinking is to preserve the
signal in its digital form as long as possible to keep signal loss and
distortion to a minimum. This is achieved by routing the signal directly
from the player in its digital form into a suitably equipped amplifier or
TV for decoding and amplification. This process has led to a
bewildering array of terminology, a few of which we’ve attempted to
explain here:
S/PDIF, an abbreviation of ‘Sony/Philips Digital InterFace’, is a defined
standard for PCM stereo digital audio. It uses a single phono (RCA)
connector for electrical signals or a TOSLINK connector for optical
signals (the information contained in the signal is the same in either
case, and convertors are available to change one type into the other).
S/PDIF signals use different sampling frequencies for different
applications and can carry stereo audio (CD, minidisc or DAT) as well as
multi-channel surround sound.
AC3 (Adaptive Coding 3) is an audio compression standard based on
the S/PDIF PCM audio delivery system. Dolby Digital Surround AC3 is
a 6-channel surround sound system that uses the AC3 compression. The
sound is encoded to 5.1 channels (five full bandwidth signals plus a low
frequency channel for the subwoofer), and then encoded using the AC3
compression standard. AC3 systems are backwards compatible with
S/PDIF in that they will also decode stereo, but S/PDIF systems will not
necessarily decode AC3.
DTS, an abbreviation for ‘Digital Theatre Systems’, is another multichannel digital audio standard which uses less compression than Dolby
Digital to give an arguably better sound. Some players and amplifiers
support both AC3 and DTS decoding although at time of writing there
is not much DTS encoded material available.
THX is not an audio standard in its own right, rather it is a very tight set
of specifications to which THX-certified equipment must be
manufactured. The brainchild of George ‘Star Wars’ Lucas, it was
intended to prevent the soundtrack of his films sounding different from
cinema to cinema because of equipment variations. In theory at least, the
film soundtrack should be faithfully reproduced in any THX-certified
cinema. THX in the home is generally an exercise in open-wallet surgery
as certified hardware is phenomenally expensive.

Leds for power and confirmation
of ‘up’ and ‘down’ commands.
It can be used in a number of
ways:
• Inline in between pre/power
amp combinations
• Within tape line out/line in

set to ‘tape monitor’
• In between say CD player line
out and amp line in (to control
that device volume only).

Sound mixing
Video sound mixing is the process of adding to or replacing the
soundtrack on your footage at the time that it is edited. Connections are
made as shown in the diagram. The norm is to have three channels on
the audio mixer; one channel being the incoming camcorder soundtrack,
another being a microphone input for commentary, and the other for
music from a tape deck, CD etc. The important thing about a mixer is
that all three channels can be present simultaneously, and so the final
result is not necessarily just
VIDEO
one channel or another. If
you want to add ‘live’

Plasma/LCD & Projector owners - do
you get frustrated by the lip-synch
errors when viewing? It occurs because
of a delay introduced by the
processing of the picture. The audio
doesnít go through the same
processing hence the audio appears
ahead of the image. If you use an AV
amplifier for your sound then we have a solution - the Felston DD540
digital audio delay module. It allows easy adjustable audio delay
allowing you to get everything back in perfect sync. There are two
inputs and you can switch and adjust from your armchair with the

• Remote control
• 680ms maximum delay (340ms for 96kHz signals)
• Automatic input switching, with input's last delay restored
• Can convert optical-to-coax/coax-to-optical, for connecting 2 sources
to an amplifier with a single input
• 12 user-programmable presets (6 per input)
• Adjustable display brightness
• Discrete IR commands for integration with learning remotes

Grabbing still images from Video
You can use any camcorder as a digital still camera by ‘grabbing’ a
single frame (either from tape or as a live image) using a video capture
device such as a USB video adaptor described above. Bear in mind that,
even if your camcorder is the latest all-singling all-dancing digital
model, its resolution is still limited (by the camcorder’s PAL sampling
rate of 13.5MHz) to a maximum of 414,720 pixels (720 x 576). When
compared to the 5 million plus pixels of most digital still cameras you
can see there is a significant difference. That said, the images can still be
perfectly acceptable and it’s often a good way of getting ‘extra’ snaps
from a holiday or special occasion. As a quick guide to picture
resolution, VGA is 640x480 pixels, SVGA is 800x600, XGA is 1026x576
and SXGA is 1600x1200. Most camcorders now also feature the ability to
shoot stills directly on to memory cards and often employ enlarged
CCDs (larger than is required for straightforward video recording) to
enable higher resolution stills to be captured. Some also record directly
to Hard Disc with the same end result.

If you want to add
several USB devices to
one computer it’s pretty
straightforward – you
just use a USB hub. But
if you want to add
another computer, it
gets complicated as
there should only be one "controller" in the
USB chain. Enter this switchbox - it allows you
to share USB peripherals between up to four
different PCs, all via USB. Note that it is an
exclusive switch so only one PC can have
"control" at a time. Simple push button
operation allows you to switch between PCs
at will. There's no external power
requirement and the device is very compact
at just 100 x 82 x 30mm.
A typical setup would be; all peripherals to a

* Input voltage 5 – 18V DC, output voltage approximately 1V less than input. The available current is
shared between the outputs. In practice, if you'd got up to five devices all of which use 12V DC at
between 100 and 200mA (a very common specification for most gadgets and processors) then you
could power all of these with just one mains adaptor rated at 13.8V DC 1000mA and one DC Hub.
The DC Hub is available with or without mains/DC input adaptor.

What is Editing?
Editing is the process of removing unwanted scenes and arranging
footage into the desired order. The dramatic impact of a film depends
largely on the arrangement of scenes, and this is why there is a
Hollywood Oscar specifically for editing. Proper editing is just as
the original, and removing or changing scenes in the process. If desired,
titles and other effects can be added at this stage.

Firewire 8 way switchbox

A useful product, this is not a
conventional hub but a true switchbox.
The VS81FW is a high quality mechanical
eight port switcher for Firewire (IEEE
1394) signals, using six-pin Firewire
connectors. It is designed for
applications requiring a compact
desktop unit for routing Firewire signals
(Digital Video, Data, etc.) between any
two of eight sources and eight output devices. The machine allows
connection of up to 8 bi-directional sources/destinations and to select
a link between any pair of machines. This allows for simple wiring in
small DV production studios. Note that the VS-81FW can only provide
one signal path at any given time (one active crosspoint) - it cannot
distribute a signal to multiple outputs simultaneously. The unit
switches over the power as well, thus allowing the powering of one
Firewire device from another, which is connected to the switcher (for
example, powering a hub/distributor from a Firewire card). High
quality switching components and carefully designed circuits provide
excellent isolation between inputs, and make the VS-81FW ideal for
high frequency signals up to 400 MB/s. No external power required.

when played back is exactly how you want it. This is called "in camera
editing". It is very difficult to do, as it allows for no corrections or re-takes
and means very careful alignment before each section is shot.
b) Editing can be done manually, simply by connecting your play VCR
(or camcorder) to a record VCR or DVD recorder and changing it from
record to record pause at the scenes you want to remove. This is
assemble-editing at its most basic. Problems usually occur with the
timing of each sequence, as it is difficult to be accurate and if you make a
mistake anywhere you will need to start over from the beginning again.
c) You can use a non-linear editing system such as a PC (with capture
card) or a stand-alone system such as Casablanca. These systems allow
you to effectively view the finished production before its committed to
tape (or disc) and is increasingly the most popular method of editing.

Firewire Repeater Hub (1 in 1 out)
The DVREP1 acts as a joining device between two 6 pin DV cables ideal for creating long Firewire cable
runs. It can be used with a 4 pin to 6

the unit is BUS powered so one end
MUST be powered by connection to a 6 pin powered device (not
camcorder). It is supplied complete with cable ties and the case has
slots to allow these to secure the DV cables. This means you can attach
the repeater and cables to the ceiling, lay them in a cable trough or
keep them on a cable roll for staging applications. It includes an
"active" led so you can tell when everything is working.

KRAMER DV LINE PROTECTOR
Money saving digital video editing special offers
The Kramer PT-1FW is a tiny device - installed between
two cables - that solves a huge problem in DV studios
(or in any other professional or home DV application).
Often, when connecting a "live" DV source to a
receptor, an electrical potential difference or any other
element creating high voltage (such as ESD or a live
chassis) may cause permanent damage to one or both
of the connected devices.
This high voltage may be seen as a spark occurring at
the instant of connection, or may not be seen at all, but
nevertheless it can result in costly damage. The PT-1FW
is installed between two cables, does not need a power supply, and
suppresses all transient high voltages down to the permitted level. It is
a "life-saver" for studios and other DV applications using the 6 pin
Firewire connector.

What are ‘generations’?
The tape on which you first recorded your footage is known as the first
generation or original tape. A copy of this original is a second generation
copy, a copy from this second generation tape is third generation, and so
on. With the exception of digital, quality is reduced in each successive
generation, when editing it's best to try and keep the number of
generations as low as possible.

Time Base Correctors
TBC1000 4 way
Distribution Amplifier
Do I need a Time Base Corrector?
Due to their construction and design all tape based players and recorders have inherent
mechanical instability. For audio systems this error is usually referred to as "wow and flutter" and
although the mechanics of the video system, are different it's essentially the same type of problem.
Video signals are more sensitive to these errors than audio signals due to the much higher
bandwidth of the signal. When a video signal is played back from a tape based system the timing
pulses that combine with the other information to produce an image will not be reproduced at
perfectly regular intervals. Televisions and other displays are still able to lock onto the signal to
produce a watchable image so the error is usually unnoticed. The problem comes when trying to
record from a tape based system, either onto another tape or to capture into a digital system as the
recorder requires more precise timing. When going tape to tape the problem manifests itself as
picture jitter and any visible vertical lines will appear to have kinks in them. If copied from tape to
tape repeatedly the picture will start to tear up and it eventually reach the point where the display
can no longer produce an image. When capturing digitally the problem shows up as dropped
frames which will cause audio sync problems (amongst others!) when you start to edit. Time Base
correctors contain circuitry to correctly restore the timing information within the signal and
prevent these problems occurring. They won't however magically restore picture quality that
might be missing from a poor 6th generation VHS tape! In short, if you ever record analogue video
tape to tape or capture from an analogue source they're a very worthwhile investment.
TBC100 PCI Card
Most camcorders will not produce a completely stable
synchronised video signal, and although not always
apparent whilst viewing, it can cause problems like
dropped frames when capturing the signal to a computer.
A time base corrector makes a useful companion to any
PC capture card, ensuring steady, stable pictures. It also
comes in useful at the ‘make tape’ stage, and can of
course be used with any linear editing system should you
wish. The TBC100 is a full frame digital time base
corrector in the style of a PCI card. It doesn’t actually connect to the PC (except as a power
supply), the styling is merely for ease of use. Simply fit into a spare slot in your computer,
connect power from a spare hard drive connector and it’s ready to go.Provides S-video and
composite connections, in and out

Considerably easier to transport than a tripod,
they are very good at taking the weight out of
holding the camcorder and minimising
camera shake. Very handy for work within
crowds of people as they are less likely to get
accidentally kicked or knocked, and they
make it very easy to change position and
reframe. Not much good though, if you want
to leave your camcorder running and get
yourself in the picture.
Monopods - do I need to buy a head?
Not necessarily — all monopods will screw
directly into the tripod bush on your
camcorder. It is really a matter of personal
preference, some people prefer to leave it at
that, others like to fit a tripod head onto the
monopod itself. Bear in mind that you gain a
fair degree of pan and tilt movement by just
rotating and leaning the monopod anyway.

MANFROTTO FIG RIG
CAMCORDER SUPPORT
A completely new kind
of camcorder accessory,
the FIGRIG combines a
circular frame with a
crossbar mount. This
allows the Fig Rig to
become part of the
body and produce
smooth, steady
travelling shots. It is this
very fact which is the
secret of the Fig Rig. As the operator walks,
his/her muscles and tendons absorb all the
shocks, transferring only fluid movements to
the camera. As there are no straps or
harnesses attached to the Fig Rig, quick and
wide movements can be made within the
same shot – from ground level to overhead –
in one smooth movement. The camera,
accessories and operator become one,
allowing you to film scenes quickly and

simply hold it in place and pump the blue button several times until you can no longer see the red line. It

one to a whiteboard in the office and couldn't shift it no matter how hard we tried. It wasn't until the end
of the day that the red line began to appear again. It is ideal for fixing to windows, car windscreens,
bodywork and er whiteboards. The Suction cup is available in three versions:
MN241V (vehicle brace)
MN241FB (flat base)

Choosing tripods
The function of a tripod is something
which will hold your camcorder or
camera nice and steady, and so it
follows that a big, heavy tripod will do
this job pretty well. Unfortunately, if
it’s so big and heavy that you can’t be
bothered to lug it about with you, it
will get very little use and so end up
having been a fair old waste of money.
Modern tripods have been designed to
provide maximum strength and
rigidity, whilst keeping weight to a
minimum, and so make them an item
that you will hopefully use more often.
Before you buy, have a think about;
• The size and weight of your
camcorder
• Your own height in relation to the
fully extended height of the tripod
• How heavy it is (can you
comfortably carry it?)
• How large it is. Is it mainly for
studio type work, or will it need to
fit in your gadget bag for holidays?
523 LANC zoom controller for Sony and Canon
The 523PRO remote control
works with both Sony and Canon
LANC-enabled video cameras.
The remote control features a
record/stop button, a power
on/standby button, three
different zoom speed control
buttons (slow, medium and fast)
and a push auto focus button.
The zoom wheel can be used to
control one of the three preset,
maximum zoom speeds or a
customisable maximum speed
which you can set to exactly the
level you want. For all zoom
speeds except the slowest preset
speed, you can choose between
progressive zoom speed (the
further you rotate the zoom
wheel, the faster the zoom) or
fixed zoom speed (irrespective of
the rotation applied to the
wheel, zoom speed remains
constant) by pressing the button
once (progressive) or twice
(fixed). The LED shows you which
speed you have selected. To set a
"custom" zoom speed, simply
hold the zoom speed button
until the LED flashes and use the
wheel to set your speed. The
setting remains in the unit's
memory until you decide to
change it. Whether you choose a
GAMMA 80 LANC TRIPOD
limited progressive zoom range
or a single fixed speed, the
features of the 523PRO mean you
can easily repeat zooms precisely
in subsequent takes of the same
shot. The 523PRO also allows you
to set left- and right-handed
operation by changing zoom
wheel direction. The push auto
focus button makes it very easy
to achieve in focus images when
working in manual focus mode.
You can also use the manual
focus in and out buttons and
change the focus direction.
523PRO does not come with any
parts to fit to the head, but
instead utilizes the pan bar clamp
that comes with all Manfrotto
heads.

What should I look for when buying a bag?
The best starting point is to list all of your equipment, and then consider
which of it you would normally want to carry around with you. Your
needs would obviously differ between a day trip and a fortnights
holiday (which is why many people actually have two bags !). A
common list would include:
• Your camcorder - of course
• A couple of spare batteries
• A battery charger (car and/or mains)
• A spare blank tape
• A lens cleaning tissue or cleaning kit
• Silica gel sachets
• Some connecting leads and perhaps an RF modulator
• A telephoto or wide angle lens
• Filters
• A car power cord
Other considerations are in the material - does it need to be water
resistant - and the construction - does it need to be very well padded
(do you bungee jump?). If you’d like some help choosing why not give
us a call, we’ll do our best to help you decide.

S-video to Composite Video Adaptor
RGB TO S-VIDEO CONVERTOR
RGB is a great method of
•KE•
sending video, with picture
resolution as good as s-video
and vastly superior to a std
composite signal. The problem
is not everything can accept an
RGB signal and often
composite is your only option.
Well, here's another problem
solved! This Box converts the
RGB scart output from Sky
Digital/OnDigital boxes and
DVD players into S-video plus
audio. Its ideal for making high
resolution connections to AV
amplifiers, SVHS/DVHS
recorders and Plasma screens.

Component, Y-U-V, Y-Pb-Pr? What exactly are you on about?
Component video is a high resolution video standard, sometimes referred
to as YUV, Y-Pb-Pr or even Y-Cb-Cr. The letters refer to the three
component parts that are combined to form the colour signal. It is similar
to, but nonetheless quite different from RGB, and can be best summarised
as follows:
Y-Cb-Cr is usually used when referring to an internal digital process (say
for example within the circuitry of a DVD player).
Y-Pb-Pr is the term used when referring to the signal external to that
process (say for example at the output terminals of the DVD player, or the
input terminals of a display device).
Y-U-V is usually found on older analogue equipment, eg BetaCam SP. YUV
signals are mathematically different from Y-Pb-Pr, so connecting a YUV
source to something expecting Y-Pb-Pr will produce discoloured results.
Keene component video equipment is designed to process Y-Pb-Pr
video, as this is now the most common standard for Home Cinema
applications using digital sources.

Scan convertors - PC to TV
Commonly used screen resolutions
VGA = 640 x 480 pixels
SXGA =1280 x 1024 pixels
SVGA = 800 x 600 pixels
UGA = 1600 x 1200 pixels
XGA =1024 x 768 pixels
A smart compact device that
enables viewing or recording of PC
monitor images on conventional TVs
and VCRs. It is capable of handling
up to 1024 x 768 monitor resolution
and includes a patch-through cable
so you can still see the image on the
computer monitor as well. Video output is via composite or s-video. It
can be powered via USB, keyboard adaptor or mains adaptor (all
supplied) and has controls for adjusting centering, alignment and
brightness of the image. The output is NTSC/PAL switchable.
Dimensions (excl cables and plugs) 120 X 85 X 45mm. The output
cables are 1.8m long so you may want to consider video couplers such
as [KA119] and [KA139] should you decide to extend the length of
these cables.

Scalers are capable of changing the resolution of the video signal as well.
For example the input signal might be 768 x 576 pixels (normal PAL
video) and your display might have a native resolution of say 1024 x 768
pixels. Many displays are capable of scaling the incoming picture to
match their native resolution, although after market external scalers can
often do a much better job, and they will often give you an increased
range of inputs as well as picture tweaking options.

What Are Line Doublers, Scalers & Progressive Scan converters?
A conventional (interlaced) video picture is made up of 25 full frames
(for PAL) per second. Each frame consists of two alternating fields
updated 50 times per second, with one field scanning odd and the other
scanning even lines. A line doubler literally doubles the frequency with
which these fields are displayed such that every frame contains both
odd and even fields simultaneously. Such a signal is then referred to as
progressive rather than interlaced. Progressive scanning alone doesn’t
increase picture resolution but does reduce flicker, and improve
brightness. Conventional CRT televisions can usually only accept an
interlaced video signal, whilst Computer monitors can only accept a
progressive signal. Most projectors, Plasma’s and flat panel televisions
can accept either.
Turn any monitor into a TV!
A really useful device that’s ideal for use with
screens and projectors with a 15pin HD
(computer) input. Basically it is a video
switchbox that can line double (output to
SVGA) and also incorporates a terrestrial TV
tuner (analogue). You can use it to turn your
display into a true multimedia centre by
linking it to your DVD player, VCR,
Camcorder, Game Console, satellite receiver
or simply using it as a TV with the built in
tuner. There’s also a pass-through connection
for your PC. The tuner also supports Teletext
and NICAM stereo sound. The stored channels can be named and
sorted. A maximal 1024 x 728 (XGA) Resolution and a refresh rate of
60Hz make this unit especially suitable for high performance LCD and
TFT Screens and can, of course, also be used with any other devices
with VGA input, such as projectors.

Video scalers
Video conversion - turning a conventional PC monitor image into a std
video signal for viewing on a TV and/or recording onto tape. Devices
that do this are commonly called "Scan Convertors" Do bear in mind
that a PC monitor is capable of a much higher resolution than a standard
television screen and is also designed for much closer viewing. If you
run your PC at a high-ish resolution (say 1024 x 768) don't expect it to
look quite as sharp on an normal TV! All of the scan convertors we sell
connect to the 15pin monitor socket on your computer and provide an svideo or composite video output. Some also include a bridging lead
such that you can simultaneously view the image on your monitor and
TV screen. (There are no audio connections if you need audio just
connect to your soundcard line output). They also all feature image
controls which let you stretch, squeeze and centre the image as required.
They require an external power source to operate - all of these (with the
exception of the USB device) are supplied with UK mains adaptors.

PAL/NTSC Digital/analogue video convertor
TV Standards Conversion
TV frames and fields
A TV creates an image by scanning one or more electron guns across a
picture tube (three guns for colour, one red, one blue and one green, or
one for monochrome). The point at which the beam from the gun hits
the tube creates a bright dot or ‘pixel’. By scanning these dots rapidly
from left to right and top to bottom the image is gradually built up. In
order for the human eye not to notice any flickering this scanning
process is repeated very quickly. Each actual ‘frame’ consists of two
alternating fields, with one scanning the even lines and the other
scanning the odd lines. The fields are updated 50 times per second
(PAL, SECAM and PAL-N), giving a new full resolution picture frame
25 times every second.
Worldwide TV standards
There are six TV standards in use around the globe: NTSC, NTSC 4.43
(non broadcast standard), PAL, PAL-M, PAL-N and SECAM (see
country list for which is used where).
This creates problems when equipment is taken from one country for
use in another, and also when tapes are sent from one country to
another. Multi standard TVs and VCRs are available, but can rarely
cope with every variant of the above. Also mains voltages differ
widely.
Whilst there are many other technical differences, the above can be
separated into two groups by the scan rates used: NTSC, PAL-M and
NTSC 4.43 all use 525 lines and 60 fields per second whereas PAL,
SECAM and PAL-N all use 625 lines and 50 fields per second.
To make life even more difficult there are further variants of each of the
above, for example the UK uses PAL I whereas Germany uses PAL G,
the difference being in the audio sub-carrier frequency used.

Before you order: To test if the CN100P is suitable for your system
first connect your NTSC
equipment directly to your PAL
TV using Composite Video
RCA/Phono connections. Do not
use the Aerial/Antenna
connections. If you get a clear stable
image, but it is in black & white then the
CN-100P is suitable. The CN-100P will convert this to a clear stable
colour image.
If you get a rolling, scrambled or distorted image the CN-100P is not
suitable. You will need a fully digital standards converter instead such
as the STC100. Please note that the output from a CN-100P is NOT
suitable for recording.

Picture mathematics
PAL video has 625 lines of which 576 are visible. A conventional (not widescreen)
display has an aspect ratio of 4:3. 576 x 4 ÷3 =768 so PAL has 768 x 576 pixels
Similarly, NTSC has 525 lines, 480 of which are visible. 480 x 4 ÷ 3 = 640 so NTSC
has 640 x 480 pixels
Widescreen has an aspect ratio of 16:9 so the equations become
PAL wide = 576 x 16 ÷ 9 = 1024 – PAL wide = 1024 x 576 pixels
NTSC widescreen has 480 x 16 ÷ 9 = 853 so NTSC wide has 853 x 480 pixels

PAL 60
Some European Pal VCRs have a feature called NTSC playback. When playing an
NTSC tape they give out signal which is colour corrected for PAL TVs although the
signal itself remains at 60Hz, hence it is commonly called PAL 60. In order to record
the signal onto a PAL VCR you need to correct this to a 50Hz signal via a digital
standards convertor. Note that not all digital convertors are able to lock onto a PAL
60 signal as it is not strictly true NTSC.

NTSC and PAL – 5 minute FAQ
This is a quick guide, intended to answer the common problems that occur when
trying to view and/or record NTSC signals on PAL equipment. It is not intended to
be an in-depth technical guide, simply to answer common asked questions. It is
written from the perspective of UK residents that have American NTSC material
and want to watch it or copy it.
FRAME RATE - NTSC uses 60Hz (that is 60 fields a second, equal to 30 frames per
second) and PAL uses 50Hz (yes you've guessed it 50 fields a second equal to 25
frames per second).
COLOUR FREQUENCY - This is the part of the video signal that carries the
information about the colour. All that really matters is that American NTSC uses a
different colour frequency to PAL.
To view NTSC material
a) With a DVD player
Assuming that your DVD player is able to accept an NTSC disc (we're going to
ignore region coding issues here) then just connect the output to your TV and see
what happens.
b) With a VCR
1) Buy an NTSC compatible VCR - obvious but effective
2) Buy a true multi-standard VCR - expensive but very useful in the long term.
3) Import an NTSC VCR - cheap to begin with, but you'll also need a mains voltage
convertor and it won't be a deal of use for taping East enders (different tuner).
4) Send your tape to a duplicating house and ask them to copy it onto PAL VHS - by
far the cheapest solution - especially if the tape is a one-off and you're unlikely to
get any more.
Assuming you can get the tape to play in the VCR your troubles aren't necessarily
over as it may or may not be giving a true NTSC signal. Sometimes they produce a
"quasi-PAL" signal in which the colour frequency is altered but not the frame rate.
This is OK if your TV can cope, but its not much use otherwise. In fact it can be a
Once you've got playback sorted then usually one of the following will happen:1) You get a nice clean stable colour picture. Great! - you have an NTSC compatible
TV and can watch your NTSC DVDs without any problems.
2) You see a nice stable picture but only in black & white
This happens because your TV is able to lock onto a 60Hz signal, (see above) but
cannot compensate for the difference in colour frequency. The solution is to use an
analogue NTSC to Pal signal convertor which changes the colour frequency back to
where the PAL TV expects it to be. There are many on the market, Keene Electronics
can supply one (the CN100P) for £49.99
3) You see a horrible jumbled mess on screen. This happens when the TV isn't able
to lock onto a 60Hz signal. The solution is to use a digital NTSC to Pal convertor to
change the signal into something the TV can recognise.
Recording NTSC material (on to PAL VHS)
(Assuming you know that this may well be illegal)
PAL VCRs have to receive the signal at 25 frames per second. NTSC signals (and
NTSC signals routed through an analogue convertor) are 30 frames per second. If
you try to record it you get a horrible picture which rolls all the time (looking like
the tracking has gone haywire). The only solution is to use a digital NTSC to PAL
convertor. These are much more expensive than the analogue convertors because as
they contain enough memory to read the signal in at 30 fps and read it out again at
25 fps. Since you're effectively ditching 5 frames per second the output will look
very slightly jerky when compared to the source, but this is only usually noticeable
on fast pans etc. Digital convertors come with different amounts of memory to
perform the conversion, the cheapest use 2Mbit, which gives around 200 lines
resolution - OK for a quick VHS "back-up" but a bit limited for large screen viewing.
4Mbit versions will give better resolution (over 300 lines) and 8Mbit are the moneyno-object option.
Key differences:
NTSC is 30fps PAL is 25fps
Most TVs are happy with either fps but VCRs (usually) will only be stable with
25fps.
NTSC has a different colour frequency to PAL
Some TVs can cope with either frequency - some can't. (you just get a B&W picture)
Analogue convertors change the colour information only - to restore the colour if
you get a stable B&W picture). Digital convertors change both colour information
and the frame rate, allowing viewing on any TV plus recording on a PAL VCR.
Conversion – Transferring other media to video
Video transfer screen
A low cost means of transferring
transparencies or cine film onto video;
simply aim your projector at the reversal
mirror and aim your camcorder at the
matt screen. Simple fold out tabletop

Transferring photographs to video
The key to good results is patience. Your main requirements are the means to
hold the camcorder and the print steady and aligned square on to each other.
Consider the light source carefully, as prints are designed to be viewed in
natural daylight, and so indoor work can often produce unwelcome colour
casts. If it’s not raining or freezing, a good approach is to take a small table
outside and use natural daylight. A table top tripod will come in very handy
and you may find it useful to have a close up lens. Although your camcorder
will have a macro facility for close focusing, it prevents you from using the
zoom effectively and so you may be forced to film an unwelcome border
around you photograph. A close up lens will enable you to actually zoom in or
out of a photo, or indeed pan across it, and yet still keep everything in sharp
focus. The Hama transfer screen above should help to meet these requirements.
If you need a close up filter these can be found on p25.
Tel 0870 990 9000 Fax 01332 830551
Transferring slides (transparencies) on to video
The same applies as cine film, in that this cannot readily be done
electronically. There are two ways to transfer slides; one is to use your
projector and do the process the same as if it were cine film (see left), and the
other is to use a slide convertor which attaches to the camcorder itself
(below).
When using the slide duplicator method, best results are obtained with well
exposed, low to medium contrast slides. A filter effect can be added by
placing suitable filters between camera and duplicator. Create more drama in
presentations by using the zoom lens to home-in on the centre of the slide,
creating a sense of motion. Add sound to your photo presentation by using
the Audio Dub feature on your camcorder.
ÖHNAR Digital Slide Duplicator
This digital slide duplicator can be adapted to screw into the filter
thread of almost all SLR cameras, video cameras and still digital
cameras. The built-in close-up optics
allow you to make full use of your
zoom and selectively crop the image
if desired. Since most modern
camcorders and digital movie
cameras now have automatic white
balance, you can virtually use any
light source to illuminate the slides
for copying. The lens of the Digital
Duplicator can also be used as a +10
close-up lens.
This device has a 52mm thread so
you may also need an appropriate stepping ring to mount it on your
camcorder's filter thread. (see Filters and Stepping Rings section).

Think about the sound
It is important to consider the sound when copying photos, slides or cine
film, as projector hum and other background noise (like your mumblings!)
may well be recorded. The best approach is to deal with this when you come
to transfer your footage onto your VCR. A simple solution is to deliberately
leave off the audio connection when copying so that the end result is silent.
Or, even better, you could use an audio mixer and add some suitable
commentary or background music (see Audio section for more detail).

Transferring cine film on to video
It is not easy to do this electronically, in the same way as copying from one
video to another, (unless you have access to thousands of pounds worth of
gear anyway), so you will have to make use of your projector. All transfer
units (see right) operate on the same basic principle. The unit contains a
mirror set at 45 degrees to a fresnel screen. The film image is projected on to
the mirror which reverses it for back projection on to the screen. The image is
recorded from the front of the screen by your camcorder (the image will be
not be reversed). Before ordering, it is a good idea to check how small a
focussed image your projector can produce. If your projector can produce a
sharp image of this size or smaller then the unit will work without problems.
If not, then some of your picture will be cropped. When transferring cine
film, a ‘strobing’ effect is often seen. It occurs because cine film is usually shot
at 18 or 24 frames/ sec, whereas the camcorder is running at 25fps, but can be
overcome by careful adjustment of the projector transport speed and the
camcorder shutter speed. It is also important to ensure that each piece of
equipment is positioned exactly square to the convertor.
Converting other media
Some Pal VCRs are NTSC playback compatible and some aren't. If you're not sure
then try it and see what happens. NTSC tape speed is different to PAL so playing an
NTSC tape on a non-compatible VCR will produce a horrible mess of a picture, and
the audio will sound distorted. If your VCR won't play the tape properly then you
have four solutions to viewing your NTSC tape, all of which involve parting with
money:-
hindrance as some signal convertors expect to see a nice pure true NTSC signal
coming in before they'll do their job properly.

Essential Differences.
There are quite a lot of technical differences between NTSC and PAL video signals,
but on the basis that you probably don't want to be a TV engineer we'll ignore them
all except for these two:-

Firewire 8 port switchbox
A useful product, this is not a
conventional hub but a true switchbox.
The VS81FW is a high quality mechanical
eight port switcher for Firewire (IEEE
1394) signals, using six-pin Firewire
connectors. It is designed for
applications requiring a compact
desktop unit for routing Firewire signals
(Digital Video, Data, etc.) between any
two of eight sources and eight output devices. The machine allows
connection of up to 8 bi-directional sources/destinations and to select
a link between any pair of machines. This allows for simple wiring in
small DV production studios. Note that the VS-81FW can only provide
one signal path at any given time (one active crosspoint) - it cannot
distribute a signal to multiple outputs simultaneously. The unit
switches over the power as well, thus allowing the powering of one
Firewire device from another, which is connected to the switcher (for
example, powering a hub/distributor from a Firewire card). High
quality switching components and carefully designed circuits provide
excellent isolation between inputs, and make the VS-81FW ideal for
high frequency signals up to 400 MB/s. No external power required.

The Kramer VP-211DS is a high
performance 2x1 automatic switcher
for VGA through UXGA and stereo
audio signals. It detects the presence
of a VGA-type signal, and
automatically switches to the active
input. If signals are present on both
inputs, input number one is selected.
Audio is always switched together
with the corresponding VGA input.
The machine has a looping XGA input
with a loop termination switch, ID bit
control and contact closure remote control for forced operation. The
machine uses active switching, and has very selective sync detection
and reconstruction circuitry. The DS (Default Select) version allows the
user to select which input is the default input, by using tiny switches
accessible from the underside of the machine. Video bandwidth
exceeding 300MHz ensures that the remains transparent even when
operating at the highest resolutions.
INPUTS: 2 VGA/UXGA on HD15F connectors. 2 unbalanced stereo
audio on 3.5 mm mini audio connectors

CAT 5 Video systems
The Keene Scart Commander switch box is a high quality audio/video
switcher designed to allow the connection of multiple sources to one
display, all via SCART connections. Particular attention has been
given to the signal processing to ensure that all video formats and
picture information are preserved. The Scart Commander is capable
of switching component video, s-video, RGB (in all its forms including
RGBs, RGsB, RGBS or RGBHV) and composite video. Because each
video channel is correctly routed it can even be used to switch digital
audio (with the correctly configured cable). Each input can be
selected manually or
automatically via auto
signal detect. A single
switchbox can be used to
switch four inputs to one
output, or two units may
be used together in a
Master/Slave
arrangement providing
switching for seven units
to one output. It utilises
very high quality high
bandwidth ICs throughout to ensure that there is no discernable signal degradation.
Key Features:
* Four input to one output switching (single unit)
* Seven input to one output switching (two units used in
master/slave combination)
* The Slave unit can be located up to 10m from the Master
* Each input will auto-switch upon signal detection and fall back to
the last selected when the input signal is no longer present.
* Switching comprises
* Four analogue video channels (which may be used for RGB,
Component video, Progressive Component, "S" video or
composite video)
* 2 digital channels (TTL) which can be used for Separate sync,
mixed sync or digital audio
* 2 control channels for AV system control (pin 8 for AV active
and widescreen / normal, Pin 16 for RGB or not RGB selection)
* 2 analogue audio channels for Left and Right stereo audio pins
* Two buffered outputs available, one on a scart socket and one on
an "SVGA" connector (control signals are not present on "SVGA"
style socket). This allows the unit to switch RGBHV signals from a PC.

matrix switcher so any of the 4 inputs
can be assigned to any of the 4
outputs or any input can go to all the
outputs. This eliminates the need to
use a lot of audio and video patch
cords to feed video and audio source
signals to destination devices, such as
VCR's, TV Sets, etc. The signal
selection can be achieved via the front panel pushbuttons or by the
Infrared Remote Control. The front panel LEDs clearly show which
input signal is assigned to each output channel.

The Kramer VS-808XL is a high
performance 8x8 vertical interval
matrix switcher for composite video
and stereo audio signals. It is a true
matrix, allowing the user to route
any input to any or all outputs
simultaneously. Since the machine
switches during the vertical interval, transitions are glitch-free when
sources share a common reference sync. There are many updated
features on this popular design including audio breakaway, which
enables audio switching independently of video. Eight preset memory
locations are provided for quick access to common configurations.
Also, the TAKE button allows the user to place multiple switches in a
queue, and then activate them with one touch of this button or a
single serial command. Kramer’s new K-Switch control software is
included for applications where a Windows-based PC is used to control
the VS-808XL. There are three ways to control the machine: frontpanel buttons, RS-232, and RS-485. The VR808XL is dependable,
rugged, and fits in two vertical spaces of a standard 19” rack. Video
bandwidth of 200MHz ensures that the machines remain transparent
in even the most critical applications.
Inputs: 8 composite video, 1Vpp/75ohm on BNCs. 1 sync/video genlock

Why use CAT5 cable for AV?
NEW! Keene CAT5 AV DISTRIBUTION AMPLIFIER
It’s cheap
It’s easy to install
You can buy long pre-made cables
It’s flexible
It’s a low noise balanced cable
It can handle wide bandwidth signals over distances of up to 300m
Wall outlets and connectors are readily available
The C5KDA is a great problem
solver. It takes s-video (or
composite) and audio and
electronically splits the signal
into four identical outputs.
There is no signal loss so each
output is as good as the input.
It then converts each output
signal such that it can be sent
via CAT5 cable to the receiver,
where it is converted back into
video and audio. CAT5 cable is
cheap, thin and flexible and
can be used to send the signal
up to 100m or more without
problems. The C5KDA provides Infra Red feedback from each
remote receiver so you can still control the source equipment
connected to the C5KDA input from the remote location. The
C5KDA has a switchable line drive feature that can be used to
preserve signal quality on even longer cable runs (in excess of
50m). It works by applying a signal boost with emphasis on higher
frequencies. The system uses wideband ICs with very low output
impedance.
Cat5Blaster QC AV distribution system
If you don't need the

Keene KDA 1:4 AV Distribution Amplifier
Distribution amplifiers take the audio
and video signal from one device and
split it into a number of different signals
to feed to other devices. Internal
electronics processing buffers the signal
so that each output maintains the quality
and clarity of the original input. The
Keene KDA distribution amplifier has
one set of inputs for composite video, svideo and stereo audio and four identical
sets of outputs, each output being
indistinguishable from the input.
Uniquely, the Keene Distribution Amp
also has a switchable line drive feature, giving the ability to send
audio and/or video over much longer cable runs than normally
possible (up to 100m dependant on cable). It works by applying a
signal boost with emphasis on higher frequencies and use of
wideband ICs with very low output impedance.
The KDA may be ‘daisy-chained’, that is to say the output of one KDA
may be fed into the input of another. Used in such a configuration,
five KDAs may be used to provide up to 16 AV outlets from one AV
input.
This product is ideal for:
Sending a an AV signal to multiple displays
Sending an AV signal down a long cable run (up to 100m with the
right cable)
Making up to four simultaneous recordings from one source
Sending line level audio to amplifiers in other rooms

DVI 1:4 Distribution Amplifier
The Keene SVGADA is a 1:4 distribution
amplifier for VGA signals (picture shows
front and rear views). The input is correctly
buffered and then distributed
simultaneously to four outputs using 15 pin
HD connectors. Output no.1 is designated
as "master" as this output also provides
data communication such that the source
may know the type of monitor is being
used. The data connections are isolated on
outputs 2, 3 and 4. Unused outputs do not
require termination. The SVGADA is constructed using high quality
high bandwidth components and should be transparent in operation.
The SVGADA connectors are all female and it is supplied complete
with a 1.8m male to male cable (PC output to SVGADA input). All
that is required is to connect the monitor(s) to the SVGADA output

Every time your aerial signal is passed through
a VCR or satellite system, the equipment's
internal modulator adds about 3dB of gain to
the signal. If you daisy chain several devices,
the signal can become too strong by the time
it hits the TV. Use these in-line attenuators to remove over-modulation
problems.

tiltable (fold flat) scart plug. This means the receiver can
easily be plugged into the back of a wall mounted TV
making a very neat connection. Ideal for situations in which
you do not want to or cannot place your A/V device close to
your TV. There is also IR feedback to control the souce
equipment via a very small IR receiver/transmitter. This IR
IS200
unit is battery powered and so again there’s no wires to
worry about.
• Place your TV screen wherever; no long or thick scart cable
in plain view anymore.
• Control your DVD player, VCR, satellite receiver, decoder,
etc. from any angle, even through a wall or cabinet door,
using the freely placeable IR receiver.
• Easy to install. The compact transmitter and receiver with
a tilt scart connection fit behind any A/V equipment and
TV screen, directly on the scart input.

MULTIROOM AV SWITCHBOX
TV Anywhere
New from Vivanco, this is an AV control centre with wireless capability.
It has five AV inputs (4 rear scart plus front composite / s-video) and two outputs; one for your
TV, one for your VCR (the record output). All rear scart inputs and outputs support composite,
s-video or RGB (note there’s no internal conversion). Digital audio is also supported, there are
four coaxial digital inputs (for each rear scart input) and the TV output gives a choice of digital
coaxial or digital optical. An on-screen menu makes it easy to keep track of which sources are
being viewed and recorded.
What sets this unit apart from other Av switchboxes is it’s built in ability to transmit to remote
AV receivers. The receiver allows you to remotely switch between any of the connected AV
inputs. What’s even more unusual is that it can support several remote receivers and they don’t
all need to be watching the same selected input! For example, remote receiver 1 could be
viewing sky whilst remote receiver 2 is watching a DVD. (There is a maximum of two
independent remote channels). Naturally the receiver allows for IR feedback so you can control
the source equipment as well. It’s supplied with one remote receiver, additional ones are
available.
A nifty product, this is effectively a wireless
TV antenna. Simply connect the TV anywhere
transmitter to your TV aerial. This then stores
all the available channels into memory. Then
connect the
receiver to any
other TV or
monitor in the
house, aim
your remote at
the receiver
and just select
the channel
you want to
watch. Several
receivers may
be used with
just one transmitter although of course
they’ll all receive the same channel. This is an
ingenious idea that solves a lot of problems.
The transmitter input is RF aerial and the
receiver output is via 3 RCA phono
(composite plus audio), a scart adaptor is
included.

This is an increasingly common problem that can be solved in a variety of
ways.
Option 1 - For watching Sky Digital (only) on other televisions
All Sky digiboxes have an extra aerial output, designed specifically to
connect to another TV in a remote location. All that's required is to
connect this aerial output to the aerial input on the other TV and you're in
business! Once connected you'd normally want to be able to control the
digibox from the remote location and this is also easily catered for by
adding a Skylink, a tiny "magic eye" that feeds the IR signal back to the
skybox. You can also buy duplicate remotes to leave in the other rooms
and special distribution amplifiers to allow viewing & control on up to
seven other TVs!
Shopping list
Distribution by AV cables. In this solution the signal fed to each remote
TV is separate audio and video. This requires an AV distribution amp and
custom made cables at the appropriate length. Since the distribution
amplifier will have only the one AV input, its usually best to connect this
to the output of an AV amplifier, which can then be used to select which
AV source is to be distributed. Failing this, a good quality AV switcher
(say the BT941) would suffice.

Distribution by aerial cable. In this option, all items of equipment have
their aerial connection "daisy-chained" together, (that is, out of the aerial
wall socket into the first VCR, out of that into the next device and so on).
The end of this chain is then connected to an RF aerial distribution
amplifier and the outputs connected to each television. You can get
amplifiers with two, four or seven outputs. The amplifier itself can be
located in the loft or wherever you find it convenient (it does need mains
power). This solution is generally the cheapest, the only downside is that
picture quality from RF is never quite as good as say a scart connection
and the audio will always be mono. That said, if your remote TVs are
typically 14" portables in bedrooms and kitchens, the audio and picture
quality are more than adequate. You may also need an RF modulator to
convert the AV output from devices like the DVD player into an RF
signal.

Wireless AV distribution. This option uses a matched transmitter/receiver
pair. The transmitter is fed with the AV signal to be distributed (as in
option 3 above) and this is transmitted as a radio signal. The receiver (by
your other TV) turns this radio signal back into audio and video again.
This is a quick and easy solution as there's no cables to be run, although it
does require one receiver for each remotely located TV. Shopping list

Commonly used AV connections
Phono, also called RCA connections, colour conventions are yellow for video, white for mono audio and an
additional red for stereo audio. Most manufacturers usually, but not always follow this colour coding.
BNC usually used to carry composite video or component video
5 pin DIN A convention adapted from the earlier tape recorders, this connection caters for both audio in and
audio out. Unfortunately, different manufacturers used different pin wiring configurations and so connection
usually involves a little trial and error.
Scart The scart socket has been fitted to most videos and TVs manufactured since the mid 1980s. The advent of Component and S-video means that
the scart is now no longer a fixed standard, but can be wired differently. On a TV, assume that it is wired normally (for composite & RGB video) unless
it is specifically labelled otherwise.
Scart connections wired for:
VHS/8mm
S-video or 4 pin mini DIN This
enables the video signal to be sent as
its separate component parts of
luminance (brightness) and
chrominance (colour).

Sanyo 8 pin mini DIN As normal 8 pin mini, but unique to Sanyo camcorders
(most Sanyo camcorders also have conventional phono connections as well).
IEEE1394 Mini-DV digital connector Also called ‘Firewire’, found on digital camcorders and VCRs and
some DVD recorders this is a means of transferring a digital signal without converting it to analogue.
Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a specification originally developed to digitally connect PCs to flat panel monitors and is
also used on some Home Cinema equipment. There are three types of DVI: DVI-D – digital only, DVI-A – analogue only
and DVI-I – digital and analogue
If your display input is rated as DVI-I then you can connect as digital or
from analogue without problems. If the input is DVI-D then you must
have a DVI-D device at the other end. Cables are readily available to
connect say 15pin HD to DVI but as 15pin HD is analogue the DVI input
must be DVI-A or DVI-I. DVI connectors can also be rated as single link
or dual link. This only matters in DVI-D signals and the dual link
provides an ultra high bandwidth data transfer. For Home Cinema
applications single link DVI is still fast enough
for HDTV (1920x1080).

A successor to DVI, the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), is now the taking over as the most common Home Cinema connector. HDMI is
like a digital scart and adds audio support to the DVI specification. It is possible to connect DVI to HDMI with an appropriate cable or adaptor,
(although of course without audio!) It is worth noting though, that the driving force behind HDMI is the need for secure copy protection for digital
media, (HDCP) and not, as you might think, the need for better picture quality.
USB stands for "Universal Serial Bus" and the connection was designed to provides an
easy means of connecting peripheral devices, for example scanners, printers, keyboards,
digital cameras etc to a computer. It's fast – the data is transferred much quicker than
with either a conventional serial port (com1 etc) or a parallel port. Secondly, it doesn't tie
up your system resources (you no longer need a free IRQ for every new device) meaning
that you can easily attach up to 127 devices to your system. Not only this, but you can
attach and remove USB products whilst your system is running without the need to
reboot! There are two types of USB end connectors. Type A is usually used for peripherals
connections, type B for motherboard connections.
15 pin HD connector aka VGA connector (VGA =Video Graphics
Adaptor or Video Graphics Array). Found on PC graphics cards &
monitors, plasma screens and projectors. Carries an analogue
signal, usually RGB or sometimes component video. The sync for
the RGB is usually at 5v (TTL) level.

Selecting the right lead
To make life easier when choosing leads, first establish the type of connection on
(a) the device you want to send the signal from, and
(b) the device you want to receive the signal. Then scan the list until a suitable match is found. If
the lead you require has two different types of connection then look at all the appropriate sections,
eg scart to 2 phono is listed under leads with phono connections. In the descriptions of leads with
scart connections, arrows <<<< and >>>> (1-way) or << >> (2-way) show the signal direction –
unless shown as being 2-way all scart terminated cables are wired 1-way (signals cannot be sent in
the reverse direction). Leads that include GOLD in their description have gold plated end
connector terminals If you can’t find the lead you’re looking for, give us a call. We are happy to
help whenever possible

Can be used as a DV-in enabler cable for
Panasonic camcorders. If you own a Panasonic
DV camcorder and you have a PC with
internet access then you can (on most
models) enable the DV-input either for free
or at least for very little cost. First, visit the
web site http://www.volny.cz/mkrejcik/ where
you can download the necessary software for
free and check your camcorder for
compatibility.
Assuming all is OK and you've got the
software the next thing you need is a cable.
The connection diagram
is on the web site if you
want to make one
yourself, or if you own a
Pronto or RC5000 remote
control the PC link cable can be used, or, (and
this is where we come in) we can supply you
a ready made cable.
Can also be used as a replacement data cable
for the Marantz RC5000/Philips Pronto

Coaxial digital audio connections – can’t I
use just any old phono cable?
Well yes, you could, but you won’t be doing it
justice. The digital signal has bandwidth far
higher than an ordinary analogue audio cable
was designed to cope with. The best bet is to
use a ‘proper’ video grade AC3 cable
designed for this type of signal.

Unidirectional (low crosstalk) scart to scart cables
These days many scart sockets are wired for both input and output and can ’loop‘
video signals back out again. There are circumstances where this is useful, but it can
also cause problems, for instance where the TV will loop its tuner signal back down
your scart cable, where it ends up superimposed on your DVD picture! We now supply
these high quality scart to scart cables wired in one direction only to completely
eliminate this sort of cross-talk and interference. The cables (with gold plated end
connectors) can carry composite video, s-video, RGB, or component video, all plus
audio.

Secure Scart Cables
Traditional scart cables can cause loss of picture or sound if the plug is tilted within its socket by as little as
3 degrees. This usually happens when the device the lead is connected to is moved for cleaning. Upon first
glance it can often appear that plug and lead are still connected normally but may have moved so slightly
that the eye cannot see the difference.
The solution to this problem is a specially engineered scart plug with four sprung latches in the metal
shroud, increasing the force required to remove the SCART plug from the socket. When these plugs are
correctly inserted they grip the scart socket so tightly that they will never dislodge under normal use and
will always ensure that good contact is made. In fact they grip so well you could even pick your DVD player
up with one (not that we recommend you try or course!) Originally developed in standard grade for Sky
installers they are now available for home cinema use with gold plated pins and high
quality screened flame retardant cable.

RF Connections
Help! I've got three TVs, two
videos and a satellite system.
What do I do with the aerial lead?
An increasingly common situation,
which fortunately has a relatively
simple solution.
First, take the TV aerial downlead
and feed it into the satellite
decoder. Then take the RF output
from the decoder and feed to the
first VCR, then the output from
that goes to the second VCR.
Connect the output from the
second VCR to the input of an RF
amplifier. Finally take a separate
RF lead from each output of the RF
distribution amplifier to each TV
outlet as required. This should now
allow viewing of terrestrial TV,
satellite or either VCR on any TV
fed from the distribution amp.
Important things to note when
attempting this:
Location: It is normal (but not
essential) to locate the distribution
amplifier in the loft space. The
distribution amplifier will require a
mains power connection to work.
The power consumption is usually
extremely low (2–3W) so the unit
can be left permanently connected.
RF channel: It is common for each
VCR and satellite receiver to be
factory tuned to output their signal
of the same RF channel number.
Since you will be connecting
several devices together on the
same cable, it follows that there
will be a clash of signals. The
answer is to adjust the RF channel
for each device (sometimes by
means of a small screwdriver
adjustable preset located near the
RF output socket, or sometimes via
the on-screen setup menu, consult
your equipment manuals for more
details). What is required is to retune each device to a different RF
channel, making sure that they
don't clash with a terrestrial TV
channel.
Signal gain: Each time you add a
device to the RF chain, 3dB of
signal gain is introduced. In some
cases this can overload the
distribution amplifier, resulting in
poor signal quality. This can be
overcome by adding a small
attenuator (signal reducer)
immediately before the distribution
amplifier. The signal MUST be
verified good before it is connected
to the videos, and then level
corrected before the distribution
amplifier. A good test is to
temporarily feed a TV directly
from a VCR, which removes the
distribution amp from the chain.
The results can be enlightening.
If the signal reaching the satellite
receiver is weak, then a one in one
out booster should be used to
improve the signal quality. This
should be located as near to the
antenna as possible – in the loft or
even on the chimney.
With some satellite systems, TV
interference can occur whenever
the satellite has power connected.
This can be reduced by routing the
satellite LNB downlead away from
the TV aerial downlead and by
using good quality low-loss cable
for all connections.

RF aerial leads
NICAM
Stands for Near Instantaneous Companded
Audio Multiplex. Means ability to decode
stereo audio transmissions. Does NOT have
anything to do with S-video.
Even if you have both a Nicam stereo VCR
and Nicam TV, if you make only an RF
connection between the two then when a tape
is played back the audio will be MONO.
Although Nicam VCRs and TVs can decode
stereo information from the RF signal, they do
not re-encode it as Nicam during play back.
The only way to ensure stereo audio during
playback is to use the appropriate AV leads.
Special leads: Link three items
Input signal from
Camcorder, VCR,
Satellite etc
TV or
VCR
VCR
These leads are designed to route an input
signal (from, for example, a camcorder, VCR
or satellite installation) to both a VCR and a
TV or second VCR, so you can record the
incoming signal, and view it on the TV at the
same time, or make two recordings at once.
To choose the correct cable, just determine
whether the equipment you want to connect
needs Scart plug or socket connectors.

What – no audio?
That’s right, most of these cables are wired
for video only. Typically you would use these
cables as the video feed, routing the audio
via an AV amplifier. RGB and YUV
connections are NOT directional as far as a
scart is concerned, so you can use them as
either input or output cables (providing of
course that the scart socket is compatible –
please check your equipment for
compatibility before ordering a cable).
Please note that these cables alone do NOT
convert RGB to component video; you need
a separate device such as the Keene [APT1]
(page 59) to do that.

RGB & component video quick connector guide
15 pin D sub (SVGA): Depending on the equipment
can be used for RGB (pins 1 = red, 2 = green, 3 = blue,
13 =H/HV sync and 14 = Vsync) OR for component
video (pins 1= Pr, 2 = Y, 3 = Pb, 13 and 14 not
connected).
RCA phono or BNC:
3 plug connections can carry component video (colour
codes green = Y, red = Pr and blue = Pb) or RGsB (RGB
sync on green) signals.
4 plug connections can carry RGB with combined H &
V sync.
5 plug connections can carry RGB with separate H & V
syncs.
Scart: Can carry component video (pins 15= Pr, 11 = Y, 7
= Pb) OR RGB (pins 15 = red, 11 = green, 7 = blue) OR
RGB with composite sync (pin 19) OR RGB with
separate H sync (pin 12) and V sync (pin 10). (Some
scart devices do not give out all signals.)

What is the longest HDMI cable
I can use?
There’s no easy answer to that question,
due mainly to the number of variables;
the chipsets used by the equipment
manufacturer; the signal resolution; and
the impedance of the cable to name but a
few. The HDMI governing body specifies
the required performance of a cable but
do not specify a maximum cable length.
All Keene supplied cables meet the
required specifications but even with a
good cable it’s possible to find situations
where a 10m cable may work fine with
some combinations of equipment and not
with others. The situation can be
compounded as a cable may carry a
standard definition picture OK but fail
with a Hi-Definition signal. It’s also
possible that a cable giving a perfect
picture at 720p or 1080i signal might fail
with a 1080p signal! The problem usually
manifests itself either as no picture at all
or as “sparklies” - basically pixel dropout.
If you do find such connection problems
with long cable runs then you can use a
signal repeater or equaliser as below, or
for very long runs consider using one of
the Purelink fibre optic cables (see web or
call for details).

Digital audio delay module
Plasma/LVD & projector owners - do
you get frustrated by the lip-synch
errors when viewing? It occurs
because of a delay introduced by
the processing of the picture. The
audio doesnít go through the same
processing hence the audio appears ahead of the image. If you use an
AV amplifier for your sound then we have a solution - the Felston
DD540 digital audio delay module. It allows easy adjustable audio
delay allowing you to get everything back in perfect sync. There are
two inputs and you can switch and adjust from your armchair with the
supplied remote.

SyncBlaster cables
give you the
power to easily
connect RGB scart
equipment
directly to Plasma
and LCD screens,
and projectors.
Most of these screens struggle to work with
the paltry 0.3V sync provided from an
ordinary RGB scart socket. Enter SyncBlaster.
These fiendishly clever cables incorporate a
fully functional sync separator and amplifier,
providing the TTL level sync required for
correct screen operation.
To avoid the
need for yet
another
‘black box’
we’ve
managed to
cram all the
essential
electronics
inside the actual scart plug body.
Not only that, the cables can draw the
required operating power directly from the
scart socket (pin 8) so for most applications
there’s no additional power supply to worry
about either!
Keene SyncBlaster – so useful it’s almost scary.

HDMI & DVI CABLE EQUALISERS
What is HDCP?
HDCP stands for “High bandwidth Digital Content Protection”. It
is a system designed to prevent unauthorised recording or
distribution of High Definition material. It is essentially an
electronic key exchange system. If say an HD (High Definition)
source such as a satellite decoder or DVD player is connected to an
HD display via a digital connection (DVI or HDMI) the source will
“talk” to the display to establish that it is a display and not a
recorder. If it’s happy, electronic keys are exchanged and you can
view the picture. If the player decides that the display is actually a
recorder or toaster or something else it doesn't like then it throws a
wobbly and you’ll get no picture. Not only that, it can add this
devices’ key to it’s little black book of things it doesn’t like so it’ll
never speak to it again. Similarly, broadcasters and content
HDMI EQUALISER
This device compensates for cable
transmission losses and corrects digital error
by providing input equalisation. This device
should be positioned near to the display at
the end of your cable run and should not be
daisy chained. At a resolution of 1080p
cables up to 20m may be used, longer for
lower resolutions
External power is not usually required as it
can be line powered by most equipment eg Sky HD.

present, it can be triggered on or off at will by either the broadcaster
(in the case of Satellite) or by a special flag set when a DVD disc is
produced. ALL pieces of equipment that have an HDMI socket will
be HDCP compliant, whereas equipment with a DVI socket may or
may not be (good eh?).

reference classification number 1394. IEEE1394 is the ‘rule book’ that
defines a whole family of data exchange protocols, each with different
data rates, compression ratios etc. Remember that Firewire is not
exclusively a video connection, but could also be used for example to
connect a modem or scanner to a computer. To make it easier for the
video user, all pieces of equipment marked with the ‘I-Link’ logo should
be compatible with each other.

Should you require a cable/connector combination not listed here, we will happy to meet your requirements, but please write them down and
post/fax to us
To order a custom ‘Lead to Go’
1. Choose (with regard to end connector and cable options) the lead you require, and hence the LTG code of
the lead
2. Decide on the length required (remember, lead length is measured connector tip to connector tip)
3. Give us the order code (the LTG code followed by the length)
The cost of a lead is the sum of the lead’s ‘Base Cost’ and its ‘£/m’ cost x the length of the lead (in metres)
required.
For example: If you wanted a 6 metre phono to phono lead for video, phono to phono video is lead LTG code
LTG3L, the order code for a 6 metre version would be LTG3L6 and the cost would be £19.60 (£13.00 Base Cost
plus 6 x £1.10/m).
Special terms and conditions relating to made to measure leads
• We will do our best to supply your lead quickly but it may on occasion take up to 14 days.
• We can only work to the nearest half-metre.
• We haven’t as yet found a way to shrink or stretch a lead so it is essential that you measure correctly.
• Faulty leads may of course be returned for repair/replacement but leads ordered in error will be subject to a
50% re-stocking charge.
• To avoid confusion please use order codes as per the example above.
• We will attempt to manufacture leads to other combinations but you may be asked to send confirmation of
the connection details. Leads correctly supplied to your connection details may not be returned for credit or replacement.
RGB ‘Leads To Go’: We're happy to make RGB wired scart cables to any configuration you like, and will connect them either as per your instructions, or
via the most common method. We must point out that there is a lot of variation in the way the scart socket on the equipment itself can be configured.
Similarly, the equipment you wish to connect to might be happy with the signal your scart socket delivers or it might require different or stronger sync
levels. These results can be difficult to predict so please double check the configurations and specifications on each item before ordering a custom lead.

Some quick soldering tips
DO:
• Tin both the wire and the connector first
• Apply heat to the joint, not the solder
• Wear eye protection
DON’T: • Blow on the joint to cool it quicker
• Move the wire or the connector before the solder sets
• Leave the iron in contact for any longer than is necessary
• Use too much solder

Some video terminology expanded
Composite video
Basically a pure video signal that is ‘composed’ of luminance &
chrominance (brightness and colour). No audio (or sound) is present in
this connection
S–video (S-VHS and Hi-8mm equipment)
Also known as Y/C video, an s-video (where s- stands for separate)
signal is one recorded and sent as separate elements, giving higher
resolution than when combined (as in composite video). The signal is
made up of two parts, the Y element and the C element. The Y part
contains the Luminance (black & white) and sync (position) portions of
the picture, and the C part contains the chrominance (colour) part of the
signal. The advantage of this separation is that there is a greater
bandwidth (ie higher resolution), less filtering of the signal and less
cross-colour interference.
We are often asked about the pin wiring of the S-video (mini 4 pin DIN)
plug. see page 80.
Component (YUV) video
Component video is a high resolution video standard, also referred to as
YUV. It is similar to, but nonetheless different from RGB.
Component video consists of 3 signals, Y, U and V (sometimes also
labelled as Y, CB and CR):
Y carries luminance and sync (0.3R + 0.6G + 0.1B, effectively black and
white picture information)
U carries colour difference – blue minus Y
V carries colour difference – red minus Y
Since the four elements of a TV signal (Y, R, G and B) are related
mathematically it is unnecessary to transmit all four – green minus Y is
derived within the receiver by matrixing
Component video is also often available as an output on DVD players
and other equipment capable of displaying high definition video signals.
YUV output can only be used on professional monitors and devices
which specifically support YUV input.

RGB
RGB stands for Red, Green and Blue, these being the primary colours
used to construct a colour television picture. RGB arguably is the best
means of connection to a TV as each signal is routed almost directly to
the picture tube. RGB is different to component (YUV) video (see above)
although they are often confused. RGB is usually catered for on the scart
socket of most TVs, but not on the scart socket of VCRs. Whilst the RGB
signals contain picture information, the sync signal is also needed for the
TV to construct the picture. Sometimes the sync signal is superimposed
on the green signal (known logically enough as ‘sync on green’), but
sometimes the sync signal needs to be sent separately, known as ‘RGB
plus sync. If required, the composite video connection may be used as a
source for a sync signal.
DV (Digital Video)
Digital Video or "DV" was created by a consortium of companies to be a
consumer digital video format. Since its launch many other companies
have joined and there are now over 60 companies within the DV
consortium. DV is a digital component video format (YUV) with 4:2:0
encoding. Audio is digitally encoded with user-selectable sampling rates
and video compression is 5:1. Each frame is compressed independently
unlike MPEG encoding which uses compression based upon the adjacent
frames. Cassettes come in two types, the most common being the
consumer camcorder MiniDV type and the larger full-size DV. Digital8
uses the same technology but based on 8mm mechanics. Digital8
machines will playback analogue 8mm/Hi-8mm recordings and record
digitally onto Hi8 tape at an increased (1.5x for PAL) tape speed. Most
DV camcorder use IEEE1394 (aka Firewire & I-link) connectors as a
means of digitally transferring the recorded material. There are a number
of other professional digital video formats, namely Digital-S, DVCAM
and DVCPRO all of which differ slightly in compression, encoding and
connection to the consumer DV described above.
What is the ‘sampling rate’?
In order to convert an analogue signal into a digital one it is sampled
(measured) so many times a second. The three numbers x:y:z refer to the
ratio at which the three video components are sampled. With for example
a 4:1:1 sampling rate the luminance is sampled four times as frequently
as the two colour components. Consumer (camcorder) DV sampling rate
is 4:2:0; professional DV sampling rates vary vary between 4:2:0 and 4:1:1,
and broadcast standard uses 4:2:2.

Please Note: These kits are no longer supplied with bolts to fix the
bracket to the wall or ceiling. This is due to complications that can
arise if the bracket is incorrectly attached. B-tech strongly recommends
that these brackets are only fitted by trained installers and that they
should only be used with fixings that are appropriate to the weight of
the screen and composition of the wall/ceiling. If you are in any doubt
at all please do not attempt to install one of these as a DIY job!

Plug’n’View CCTV products
CCTV (closed circuit television) has tumbled in cost in recent years to the point where it is now an
affordable option in the home as well as the workplace. The only downside to CCTV is that it has
traditionally been complicated to set up - often needing the services of a professional installer.
The Plug'n'View range is designed for complete ease of installation with just one slim cable
providing all necessary connections to the camera. As well as being simple to install, Plug'n'View
is also fully expandable, allowing you to add extra cameras and devices at a later stage.
Simply decide how many cameras you would like (Any from one up to eight), which type you'd
like (internal, external, with or without PIR, colour or mono, and then choose the PnV
interface, anything from a simple AV connection kit (one camera to a VCR or TV) up to an
eight way switcher with time and date and auto recording. For example;

As you can see it's simple to get running and you can add more cameras and features as
required.
Plug ‘n’ View cameras
The first and most important items to specify when building a CCTV installation are the type and style of cameras required. All PnV cameras are
supplied either pre-wired and pre-plugged or complete with 20m ready to connect plug-plug cable. Unless otherwise stated, PnV cameras also
have built in audio, with very sensitive microphones. Please note that the video out of these Plug’n’Go cameras is via RJ11 style connectors, so
you will need an appropriate connector kit to interface the camera with the other components.

PNV Camera FAQ
The Plug and View range uses RJ11 style
connectors. There are other camera systems on
the market that use the same connectors but
we cannot guarantee that their wiring
specification will match ours. The PNV
connector pin-outs are listed as follows:
Pin count from left to right when viewed from
the front with the clip at the bottom
Pin 1 = 0V
Pin 2 = Audio
Pin 3 = Video
Pin 4 Not used
Pin 5 = 12V
Pin 6 = Alarm
Can I just buy a camera?
Of course, but without one of the P’n’V
modules such as the AV Connection Kit you’ll
have to configure your own power supply and
interface to the camera as per the above pinouts.
Plug ‘n’ View connection kits
It is important to decide what the chosen
cameras are to be connected to, and how
they are viewed. Plug‘n’View offers a variety

WIRELESS IP NETWORK SURVEILLANCE CAMERA
if you tried to access the camera from the internet your router would
block outside access to your home network (ie anything on your home
side of the router) but it should be possible to configure your router
to allow the IP camera to be visible to the outside world via the
internet without compromising your home network security. Usually
you log in to the control panel on your router via a web browser
(consult your manual) and look for an option called virtual server or
port forwarding or similar. Here you can specify the IP of your camera
and which public port it should be accessible to (port 80 is the one you
want). Then, to access the camera from the internet (not at home)
type the IP address for your WAN (wide area network) into your
browser address bar and your router should pass this request through
to the camera and allow you to see and control wherever you are in
the world. If you dont know your WAN IP theres a handy free utility
available on the internet called IP2 available from
http://keir.net/ip2.html. Please also note that you'll need a static IP
address otherwise you'll have a different WAN address each time the
router reconnects.
See and secure all those places where you cannot be: via your network
or the Internet.
Ideal for remote surveillance e.g. your home, shop, waiting room or
reception.
Ideal for remotely attending events you would otherwise miss, e.g.
family event or product launch.
Large surveillance area: the camera can be panned or tilted by remote
control.
No PC required, the camera can be connected directly to the network
or router/hub.
For your eyes only: secure access by means of a personal password.
Includes software for direct recording and sending of images.
Camera can be operated and viewed using any web browsers (that
support Java and ActiveX), from anywhere in the world.
Up to 64 users can view the images on the internet simultaneously,
each with their own access rights.
Notes:
To really make this useful you need a router for your broadband
connection. Configure it such that the camera is connected to your
router and both are on, even when your home PC(s) are off. Normally,

Resolution - since the Sports Camera becomes the eye of your
camcorder the maximum resolution is limited to 330 lines - a little
down from some DV camcorders but still perfectly watchable.
Audio. In standard trim there's no microphone with the Sports Camera
so you'll be shooting silent footage, but if you're travelling at speed
you'd only be recording wind noise anyway, and it’s pretty easy to
overdub some music in post-production. If you really want audio it is
possible, but bear in mind that in VCR mode your camcorder will only
record sound from the audio line inputs – the mic socket is not active.
To solve this problem you need to use a microphone pre-amp. This
turns the mic signal into line audio suitable for the camcorder. We can
supply small battery powered mono or stereo pre-amps to order,
either of which can be used with any mic you choose eg Vivanco EM35
tie clip (page 30). See ‘AUDIO’ section for more details.

I'd like to be able to shoot some video whilst skydiving/mountain
biking/ski-ing/bungee jumping/generally
behaving dangerously...
Although there are some very small
camcorders available, trying to attach one
directly to yourself or your bike/car/skis/etc
is fairly tricky and the recording
mechanism may be damaged by the
vibration. A better solution is to use a small external camera together
with a camcorder. This way the camcorder itself can be placed
somewhere secure with only the camera exposed. Hence the Keene
Sports Cameras, miniature robust bullet cameras sealed within a tough
waterproof housing. The camcorder used with the a Keene Sports
Camera must be one that has an analogue line input – i.e. it can
record in VTR mode. We successfully tested them with a Sony PC110
camcorder, but any camcorder with analogue (not just DV) video input
will be fine. Also, most Sony Digital 8 models will (when DV-in
enabled) record analogue line input. To control the camcorder we'd
recommend using a Keene LANC remote control (this isn't essential
but it saves unwrapping the camcorder every time). Assuming you
have a suitable camcorder the next stage is fairly straightforward –
attach the camera to your helmet/bike/kayak etc and run the camera
output to the camcorder line input. The camera body can easily be
zip-tied to say a helmet (see picture) or
shoulder strap. Also supplied is a small screw
mount bracket which could be attached to
say the inside corner of a car dashboard.
Next, connect the Sports Camera to a
suitable power source. If using it in a vehicle
then ideally tap into the cigar lighter feed
and use this as a 12v power source. If you’re
mobile then we supply our kit with a PP3
type 9V battery connector and an in-line on/off switch. You can use
this with either a PP3 type battery or snap this onto the the supplied
holder and use it with 8 x AA batteries. The camera will work perfectly

Keene IR Distribution Amplifier
Keene IR Commander
Put your remote back in control and
route IR commands to wherever they are
needed – even round corners and inside
cabinets. Multiple input/output options
(see diagram and components list below
for more details) can provide a solution
to almost any IR control problem.
The ultimate solution for controlling
equipment by IR remote, even when
the equipment is out of sight,
inside cabinets or in remote
locations! The IR
commander builds on
the proven
technology of the
Keene IR
Distribution amplifier
to provide a greatly
expanded number of
inputs and outputs. Use of
optional expansion modules
allow up control of equipment up to 50m
away, providing a solution for even the most demanding and
complex installations. A fully connected unit provides a maximum
of 10 IR receiver inputs and 13 IR emitter outputs. The
Commander can even be coupled to another unit to provide 20 x
26 if desired.
Features:
• On board wideband IR receiver (may be disabled if required)
• 4 receiver input jacks
• 1 wand input jack (to take direct output from say Powermid or
similar)
• 1 input module RJ45 socket. Allows an additional 4 input
module to be connected via CAT5 cable at a distance of up to 50m
• 2 high power output jacks
• 3 standard power output jacks
• 2 output module RJ45 sockets. Use of optional expansion
modules allows control of equipment up to 50m away.
• Couple point allows two IR Commanders to be linked to provide
an even greater number of input/output options.
• LEDs indicate which input is active. When IR activity is detected
on one input all other inputs are momentarily blanked to ensure
the signal remains pure and is cleanly transmitted. (the LEDs may
be disabled if required)
Specifications*:
Power: 12v DC @ 300mA (UK adaptor supplied, euro available on

Powermid Control Anywhere
Essentially the receiver half of the Powermid
XL, the Control anywhere is designed to be
used with an IR/RF Marmitek universal
remote, such as the EC8 or ET35. These
remotes transmit IR (for normal direct use)
and also RF which will be picked up and
transmitted as IR by this device allowing you
to use them in different rooms around the
house.
[PMIDCA]
Another gadget that allows you to control your
AV equipment from a distance, this ingenious
system makes use of your existing coax aerial
cable to carry the commands. The IR receiver
picks up your IR signal and sends it down the
aerial cable to be reconverted into an IR signal
where it's needed. Very effective where the
normal radio type solutions don't have enough
range or in cases where you want to keep any
extra 'black boxes' to a minimum. Only useable on TVs that have a
coaxial aerial feed from your main AV equipment. If the aerial cable
goes via a distribution amplifier or splitter it is essential that this is
return channel compatible (allows DC signals through). Most off the
shelf splitters dont work like this so consider using the 4way SL4 or 8
way SL8
Skylink
A short (25cm) line adaptor with an RJ45 line socket to a
3.5mm stereo jack plug. This is designed to allow CAT5

applications. Once triggered the
microcontroller will hold the recorder in
‘record’ mode for one of four preset times; 20
seconds, 80 seconds, 160 seconds or 240
seconds. Any re-trigger during the record time
will reset the record timer to the selected timeout. The controller
can be set to either power down (‘SLEEP’) the recorder, or, for
cameras that return to a default mode when powered down, it can
be changed to set the recorder to ‘STOP’.
It is supplied complete with 2m LANC cable and (UK) 12V mains
adaptor. The power can also be provided by an alarm system (12V
power) if required.

Please note: the PIR housing used for the KLRP1 was originally
classified as weatherproof, but the additional machining for the
LANC control & power cable mean that it can no longer be classed
as such. If used externally it should only be used in sheltered
locations.

The 523PRO remote control works with
both Sony and Canon LANC-enabled video
cameras. The remote control features a
record/stop button, a power on/standby
button, three different zoom speed
control buttons (slow, medium and fast)
and a push auto focus button. The zoom
wheel can be used to control one of the
three preset, maximum zoom speeds or a
customisable maximum speed which you
can set to exactly the level you want. For
all zoom speeds except the slowest preset
speed, you can choose between
progressive zoom speed (the further you rotate the zoom wheel, the
faster the zoom) or fixed zoom speed (irrespective of the rotation
applied to the wheel, zoom speed remains constant) by pressing the
button once (progressive) or twice (fixed). The LED shows you which
speed you have selected. To set a "custom" zoom speed, simply hold
the zoom speed button until the LED flashes and use the wheel to set
your speed. The setting remains in the unit's memory until you decide
to change it. Whether you choose a limited progressive zoom range or
a single fixed speed, the features of the 523PRO mean you can easily
repeat zooms precisely in subsequent takes of the same shot. The
523PRO also allows you to set left- and right-handed operation by
changing zoom wheel direction. The push auto focus button makes it
very easy to achieve in focus images when working in manual focus
mode. You can also use the manual focus in and out buttons and
change the focus direction. 523PRO does not come with any parts to
fit to the head, but instead utilizes the pan bar clamp that comes with
all Manfrotto heads.

Recent changes in DTI legislation have opened up new opportunities for remote control systems. It is now possible
to automate your house to a level which would have been in the realms of science fiction just a few years ago.

What Is Home Automation?
Want to switch on a light before you
get home? Water the lawn whilst
you‘re away? Here‘s an easy way to
control any mains with your telephone.
Simply dial in, enter your personal code
and the device will switch on for a predetermined time (1 to 99 hours). You
can even check the status by phone. It
works in parallel with other telephone
devices so won‘t interfere with your
answering machine. Touch telephone
required. Max load 10A.
In its most basic form home automation (or home control) is the controlled, automatic
switching on or off of an electrical device within your house your house, garage or
garden.
Why would I want to do this? For years people have dreamed of operating
everything in the house by remote control. Indeed it was in the early 1970's when
Stirling Moss unveiled his 'House of the Future' where even the bath could be run
from the bedroom. All these facilities have been readily available to the rich and
famous but until recently have remained out of the reach and pocket of most people.
Depending on which system of control you decide upon (and yes, you can mix and
match) then the possibilities are only limited by your imagination.
Here are a just a few examples of possible applications:
Waking Up There's no need to always be woken up by an ordinary alarm, why not
your Hi-Fi, or the television? You can have lights to come on throughout the house,
and perhaps switch on heaters before you even set foot out of bed. In fact (as long as
you remembered to fill it the night before), you can even boil the kettle before you get
to the kitchen!
Leaving home in the morning How many times have you left home wondering if
you have turned off all the things you know you should have turned off, but can't
remember if you have? One solution is to use an Easy Life Kit and a separate wireless
wall switch fixed near the front door of your house. On leaving, just one press of a
button can switch all your appliance modules off.
Coming Home in the evening If you always get home at the same time you could
pre-program lights, heaters, even music to greet you when you return. With RF
remote controls you can automate your garage door to open as you pull on the drive
and switch on external lights to escort you into the house. If you want to get really
carried away you can even use an X10 telephone transponder, "call" your house and
switch things on at whatever time suits you.
In Your Absence You can pre-program lights and radios to switch on and off around
your house to give the "lived in" look, and with the right equipment you can even
automate curtain opening and closing. You can even hook into your burglar alarm
system so that all that house lights flash on and off when an alarm is triggered.
These are just a few examples, although the possibilities are really endless.

X10 quick start guide
Lets say you’d like to be able to
control a table lamp from your
armchair.
Add a transceiver module.
This picks up the signal from
your remote and turns it into
X10 to send round the mains.
Just plug it in anywhere
roughly central to your house.
Plug the lamp into the LM12U and
the LM12U into the plug socket.
That’s it! Sit back in your chair and
marvel at your new found ability to
plunge the room into darkness
whenever you like.
It really is that simple. With the above set up you could easily add more lamp modules and appliance modules as required. Unless you’ve a very
complex installation you usually only need one the transceiver module.
Home automation – X10 control
Remote controls
Choose a remote control. In
this example an SH624 but
any X10 remote will do.
X10 transmitters/controllers (things that directly send X10 commands)
The transceiver module catches the radio signals
emitted by any X10 compatible transmitter (eg
MS10E, HR10, EC8, KR22E, SS13E etc) and converts
them into X10 signals for the mains wiring. It simply
plugs into the mains wherever you find convenient
and looks very much like an appliance module with a
small aerial attached. The transceiver module also has
an outlet socket and can be used like an appliance
module although its address code cannot be altered
from address code 1. It has an effective reception
range of around 30 metres so normally one (centrally
located) transceiver module is enough to ensure that
an X10 remote will work more or less anywhere
within the house. Max load 5A (resistive) 2A (inductive)
[TM13U]
What is X10?
X10 is a communication protocol for remote control of mains electrical
devices. It works by passing control signals through your existing mains
wiring. There are two essential parts to an X10 installation; a transmitter
and a receiver. The transmitter generates the control signal (‘switch on’,
‘switch off’, ‘brighten’ or ‘dim’) and these signals are acted upon by
receiver modules connected to the mains within the house.

Most of the X10 products require no DIY skills at all, you just plug the
devices in and start using them. A few of the products (wall switches
etc) do require some basic electrical DIY skills for safe installation and
operation. (As ever, if you're in doubt please consult a qualified
electrician.)
PowerFlash Universal Interface
A really interesting product, this unit
monitors a pair of normally open
contacts and sends X10 commands when
it detects a change. This can be
triggered by closure of the contacts, or
even a low voltage (6-18V AC, DC or
speaker level audio).
There are three modes of operation:
Mode 1: it sends ALL LIGHTS ON to the
house code plus and appliance ON to
the same address the interface is set to.
When the contacts are opened it sends
an OFF command to the appliance but leaves the lights ON.
Mode 2: it sends and ALL LIGHTS ON/OFF flashing command and
leaves them ON after the contacts are opened.
Mode 3: it sends an ON command to one address, and an OFF to the
same address when the contacts are opened again.
There are many uses for this device. For example;
Connect it to your burglar alarm panel and have all your house lights
flashing on and off in an alarm condition.
Connect it to a magnetic switch to turn on lights when a door opens.
Connect it to your doorbell to trigger lights, sirens or whatever you
like.
If you like to experiment with electronics you can cause trigger
conditions using light sensors, moisture sensors, microphones etc.

* As easy to program as an alarm clock
* 4 timers with two schedules each per day
* Manual 15 min delay feature
* 8 device keypad with "All On" & "All Off"
The mini timer resembles a conventional
alarm clock with an LED time display and
control buttons along the top, and enables
you to send manual commands to X10
addresses 1 to 8. It can send two 'on' and
two 'off' timed commands to each of unit addresses 1 to 4 or 5 to 8
which can either be set to precise times or to vary within 30 minutes
of a set time. There is an alarm function on either address 1 or 5
which activates a buzzer as well as sending a command. There is a
'sleep' function which can be used to send 'on' or 'off' commands at
any time from 15 minutes to over 8 hours ahead. An additional
feature is a button which will send an immediate 'on' command to all
lights set to the same house code (whether via a lamp module or a
wall dimmer switch). There is also an 'all units off' function allowing a
command to be sent instructing everything connected to the house
code to switch to the 'off' position. The mini timer sends its own
commands to modules and switches and there may also be other
signalling devices which you may wish to use. As with all of the X10
equipment, the mini timer works with a house code and a unit code
which can be easily changed at any time. More than one mini timer
can be used through the use of the house code system. For example,
there might be a circuit controlling, say, some lights and some
appliances which could be designated as circuit A and controlled by
remote controllers set to circuit A. Another completely separate circuit
could operate within the home, controlling another grouping of
devices. There will be no interference between those circuits and up to
16 circuits can exist at once. UK mains adaptor included.

In essence, X10 allows you to assign a unique "address" to every
electrical item you want controlled. Commands can then be sent to each
particular address, allowing items to be turned on and off, (or dimmed)
as required. There are a number of different ways to send a command to
an "address", either by a timer, remote control, computer control, wall
switch or even by telephone. You can have up to 256 unique addresses
per house, and of course some devices can be set to the same address so
that one command can switch them all on or all off at the same time.
You can buy individual modules to build a system, or buy a starter kit
to get you going. Because X10 uses your existing house wiring there are
no extra cables to run and the beauty of the system is that you can
expand it almost endlessly.

Security system and telephone responder
X10 Computer interface
The SC9000 makes a great X10 system
hub. It makes a sophisticated and
expandable wireless alarm system,
and once configured you can dial
into your house from anywhere in
the world, check the alarm status,
arm & disarm and also switch on or
off any X10 controlled appliance. It's
capable of monitoring up to 16
wireless sensors, and, in the event of
an alarm condition (ie a trigger on one of these sensors) it can be set
to automatically dial out (on up to four different telephone numbers)
and playback any message you've pre-recorded. The SC900 contains a
built in siren and can also trigger any other external X10 controlled
lights and sirens. Since all the alarm sensors are wireless it makes for
very easy installation yet provides a powerful and flexible alarm
system with full X10 integration and telephone control. It also acts an
X10 transceiver module (the base station on its own provides
telephone control and X10 push button control). You can also
program timed events to switch X10 controlled lights on and off
whilst you are away.
All in all a great X10 product.

This is the ultimate X10 timer! Simply plug
the CM11U into a mains sokect, connect it
to your PC (via serial or USB) and run the
supplied Active Home software. You can
simply click on screen and control your X10
devices but you can also program complex
on/off routines for each device for each
day of the week. The timer setting can
then be downloaded to the CM11U and
the timed events will run whether the PC is
on or not. You only need to run Active
Home again if you want to change your
settings or need manual control. You can
also set a ìlifestyleî mode which will emulate your give your house a
lived in look whilst your away on holiday. You can also program more
complex macro commands such that one X10 command triggers
several X10 events. If you’d like to try before you buy you can

SD90E Wireless Smoke Detector
For use with SC9000 systems
[SD90E]
£44.99
This is a PIR (passive infra-red) sensor which
can send signals to a transceiver module via
radio. The device is powered by AAA batteries
and may be used internally or externally.
When the infra-red sensor detects movement
a signal can be sent to any of unit addresses 1
to 15 within the house code to which the
occupancy sensor is set. An additional
dusk/dawn detection can send a signal to a
unit code address one number higher than
that sent by the infra-red detection. The infrared and dusk/dawn facilities can be programmed via 'if/then' events
to make this unit a complex addition to a Home Automation system.
For instance it could be used in a typical room setting such that if it is
dark then a person entering would automatically trigger a sequence
turning on lights whereas that sequence would not be triggered if it
were light. It is of particular value when used in conjunction with a
computer interface module. If needed, it can also send a reversing
signal if there is no further triggering within a period which can be
set from 1 to 128 minutes.
There are many uses for this device - for example you wouldn't need
to remind the children to turn off the lights when they've left their
room, it would happen automatically. End the search for a light
switch in the dark, or use it to trigger all the house lights to come on
if you get an unexpected visitor at night.
Key applications
*Save energy by turning off lights and appliances when you're not in
the room
*Protect your home by early warning of unexpected visitors
*Activate lighting sequences

Remote control
A multi-device remote control that can replace the IR
remotes for up to seven other devices. It has a built in
code library for all popular brands as well as a learning
facility. Not only can it do all this, it also has a built in
wireless (RF) transmitter. It can be used to send signals
directly to the PMIDCA (page 121) and if used with the
TM12U transceiver module you can directly control up to
16 different X10 addresses with on/off and dim/bright.
There's also an "all lights on" button which sends an
immediate 'on' command to all lights set to the same
house code (whether via a lamp module or a wall
dimmer switch), particularly useful if there is a suspected
intruder or one of those annoying 'bumps in the night'.
There is also an 'all units off' function instructing
everything connected to the house code to switch to the
'off' position. Powered by AAA batteries. Very simple and
very useful.
Note, for X10 use TM12U transceiver module required
[EC8]
An easy to use remote control, about the size of a
cigarette packet. Can be used hand held, or attached
to a wall. It can send an 'on' or an 'off' command to
each of addresses 1 to 8 or 9 to 16 on a particular
house code. In addition it allows a dim up or
down to be carried out (which will be interpreted by a module or switch with dimming
capability and will not affect any other item).
RF signalling means that it does not have to be
pointed at the unit to be controlled, but must be used in
conjunction with the TM12U transceiver module, set to the same
house code. The effective range is up to 30 metres., usually enough
for the remote to address any item connected to the system form
anywhere in the house. A small LED (which also acts as a battery
indicator) illuminates when a signal is sent. Powered by AAA
batteries. The combination of a remote control and transceiver being
used to activate command groups set up by a computer interface
model is extremely powerful and allows the user to take a high
degree of control over electrical items in the home. More than one
remote control can be used to send signals to a transceiver module
and in practise many users find that one upstairs and one downstairs
is often a sensible configuration.

A really thin (less than 5mm thick) light-weight
switch that can be attached to any wall in seconds,
giving you instant convenient control of up to three
X10 addresses. It sends commands to a transceiver
module by radio frequency to any consecutive
group of 3 unit codes within the same house circuit
setting and also has the dim up and dim down
facility. It is of particular use where a user may wish
to be able to control lighting or appliances in a
room from a static location and where the existing
wiring is insufficient to support a wall dimmer
switch or a wall appliance switch. It can also be of
great benefit when much more functionality is required in a home
and where the expense of a conventional wiring alternative would be
prohibitive. Like all other Home Control products it can be used to
activate sequences managed by a computer interface module. Because
it is battery operated, it may be used safely where conventional
wiring may be hazardous, for example in close proximity to water.

SW10 Shutter Switch
Switch for sun blinds, roman blinds, curtains and other window
coverings using a 230V motor. Intelligent
switch with memory for window size and
present position. Remote control using the
X10 protocol. With X10 control the blinds can
be set in any position. Manual control is also
possible. The X10 Shutter Switch can be built
into a standard 50mm Shuko back box. The
switch can be controlled remotely via the
mains using X10 signals. This means the
Marmitek X-10 system can be built into the
installation and is totally ‘invisible’. The switch can also be controlled
manually as a momentary switch. The blinds can be set in any position
manually.
When installing the switch, the size of the window is set. This
information is stored in memory and will be retained even in the event
of a power failure. This also applies to the actual position of the sun
blind. The blinds can be remotely controlled using the following X10
Commands:
• Fully open in response to the command ‘On’
• Fully closed in response to the command ‘Off’
• Any desired setting in response to the command ‘Dim’.
Phase and neutral have to be available before the module can be
installed.

New X10 MicroModules
A great addition to the X10 range, these are very tiny modules that are
designed to be concealed behind existing wall sockets and switches.
AW12 MicroModule (on/off)
A miniature appliance module that can be
concealed behind an existing wall socket to turn it
into an X10 controlled wall socket. It can also be
wired to an external switch (momentary or
latching) for direct control. A neutral wire is
required for operation. When used with a
momentary switch the relay will operate each time the switch is
pressed. When used with a latching switch the relay will operate on
both the closure and release. This means two-way switching is possible
if 2 changeover latching switches are connected in series.
Technical data: Supply voltage: 230V +10% -15% 50Hz, Supply current:
<20 mA capacitive. Max capacity: 2000W (incandescent lamp), 3A
(motors), 16A (resistive

LW12 Micromodule
(on/off/dim/brighten)
The LW12 can be controlled with X-10
signals via the mains or a momentary switch
connected to the LW12. The LW12 has a memory setting for the last
dimmer setting and uses SoftStart and SoftDim. The LW12 doesnít
require a neutral connection so is a very easy retro-fit option.
[LW12]
£39.00
AWM2 MicroModule
A miniature X10 transmitter for two addresses
with built in 16A appliance module. It can be used
to turn a conventional switch (momentary or
latching) into an X10 transmitter. If for example
the 1st switch is set to address A10 then the relay
will respond to an incoming command for A10. If
the switch is used it will switch the relay and also
send an X10 command to any other modules set
to A10. Switch 2 only transmits an ON/OFF
command for the configured address plus one – in
our example A11. The module dimensions are just 46 x 46 x 16mm.
[AWM2]
£62.00
TMA4 MicroModule
A miniature X10 Transmitter for 4 addresses and
the commands ON and OFF. The TMA4 connects up
to four conventional (latching) switches by wire
leads and transmits up to four sequential X10
ON/OFF addresses. MicroModules use two-way X10 communication. Marmitek MicroModules are
designed to fit in the rear of European junction
boxes, behind any installed switch or outlet. The
module dimensions are just 46 x 46 x 16mm.

[TMD4]
The LW10 & AW10 wall switches are now discontinued but are
effectively replaced by the AW12 & LW12 micro modules as
these allow any switch or outlet to be converted to X10
Appliance module
Simplicity itself, just unplug the device you want
controlled, plug this into the socket then plug the device
back in. Set the X10 address as needed and you now
have instant X10 control. The module can switch on or
off an appliance of up to 13 amps, ideal for kettles, fans,
heaters, lamps, etc. The appliance module has an added
feature in that if the item connected to it is desired to
be manually controlled without having to send a signal
to it, the appliance module will switch to the 'on'
position by a simple turning 'off' and 'on' of the
appliance. The module itself will only turn off if a signal
is sent to it.Max load 16A (resistive) 1A (inductive).

Lamp module
Gives you instant X10 control of any plug in lamp. Plugs
into a 13 amp socket and will switch on/off lamps plugged into the module's standard 3 pin socket. In addition
it can dim/brighten (standard tungsten or halogen
filament bulbs only, NOT fluorescent). More than one
lamp may be connected to a lamp module but can not
be controlled independently. If a lamp connected to the
module is desired to be manually rather than X10
controlled, the lamp module will switch to the 'on'
position by a simple turning 'off' and 'on' of the lamp
switch. The module itself will only turn off if a signal is
sent to it. In some cases, where lights have transformers
or their own dimmer systems, there may be a conflict with X10 dimmer
commands in which case an appliance module would be more appropriate. Load 40W (minimum) 300W (max) incandescent lamps only.

X10 PROFESSIONAL RANGE
The majority of X10 home automation products are designed to be
easy to install "plug and play" types that anyone can set-up and use.
There are however a few devices classed as "professional" because
they require installation by someone competent with domestic house
wiring. Given that they need a bit more difficult to fit, they do offer
an extra degree of flexibility. Classed as "DIN rail" products (because
they fit directly onto the DIN rail within most modern consumer units),
they can also be fitted into their own special housing adjacent to your
consumer unit.
AD10 DIN RAIL SWITCH
If a particular appliance causes interference that
affects your X10 commands, simply unplug it and
plug in again via this filter. It prevents any unwanted
"noise" from the appliance entering the ring main.
[FM10]
£29.99
Basically a remote controlled relay, this can be directly
controlled either by switches (momentary or latching)
or by any other X10 controller. This makes it useful
for say hallway lighting applications, and also with its
16A load capability its great for items like immersion
heaters. Very useful.
[AD10]
£29.00
LD10 (LD11) DIN RAIL DIMMER
These are designed to fit into a std DIN rail consumer
unit or similar enclosure and give you all the benefits
of X10 direct from the fusebox. The LD10 supports
on/off and dim/brighten. Additionally they support a
'soft start'. In effect when you operate your light
switch your lights will start from zero and gradually
brighten until they reach the last remembered level.
Then If you press and hold the light switch they will
gradually cycle through to maximum brightness and then back to dim.
Whenever you release the switch this sets the remembered level of
brightness for the next 'on' command. Very ease to install and use,
they can be controlled by any X10 controller and also by a momentary
action (non-latching) switch. Max load 60–700W.
[LD10]
£29.00
DIN rail module enclosures
Ideal for housing the X10 DIN rail Appliance and Dimmer
modules; these are ideal if you’re tight for space within
your existing consumer unit, or you wish to site them
elsewhere.
INTERNAL ENCLOSURE for standard size DIN modules, or
1 LD10 or AD10. Enclosure features a hinged clear lid. DIN
rail length 100mm, overall dimensions 157 x 70 x 64mm.
[DRE3]
£6.99
INTERNAL/EXTERNAL ENCLOSURE for 3-5 standard size
DIN modules, or 1 LD10 or AD10. Features hinged clear
lid with weatherproof seal. DIN rail length 100mm,
overall dimensions 131 x 73 x 91mm.
[DRE3E]
£16.99
DIN rail filter
Can be used as a coupler, to allow X10 signals to be
passed between phases in a multi-phase
installation, and can also be used as a filter. In filter
mode it can be used to prevent X10 signals from
entering or leaving the building (in the case of
interference from a neighbour), or to filter a
specific load from the consumer unit. Suitable for
heavy duty loads up to 63A.

USING X10 WITH LOW VOLTAGE & ENERGY SAVING LIGHTING
There are a few important points to remember here
Low voltage lighting
12V halogen lighting systems usually use one of two different type of
transformer; a lightweight electronic (switch-mode) unit, or a heavier
conventional transformer. The heavy transformer type can be safely
operated and dimmed with an X10 module (LD10 or LM12U). The smaller
switch-mode type cannot be dimmed by X10 and it may result in damage
if you try. The only solution (if you require X10 dimming) is to change the
transformer for a conventional type. If you only require on/off control
without the dimming option then an AD10, AW10 or AM12U will be fine.
X10 Product quick compatibility checklist
[LD10] DIN RAIL DIMMER: OK for conventional incandescent lights (60700W, and mains voltage halogen lights. Can also be used with low
voltage halogen provided the transformer is NOT switch-mode type.
Requires momentary action switch.
[AD10] DIN RAIL SWITCHER: OK for on/off control of almost any type
of light or appliance up to 3kW.
[AW10U] WALL APPLIANCE SWITCH: OK for on/off control of almost
any type of light or appliance up to 2kW. (requires neutral connection)
[LW10U] WALL LIGHT SWITCH: Replaces conventional light switch for
on/off and dim/brighten control. Cannot be used with energy saver type
lamps or low voltage halogen systems. Does not require a neutral
connection so will replace existing light switches easily. Minimum (yes
minimum!) rating 60W, max 300W
[LM12U] PLUG IN LAMP MODULE: On/off and dim/brighten control of
conventional lamps only (max 300W) - not for use with energy saver or
low voltage lighting.
[AM12U] PLUG IN APPLIANCE MODULE: OK for on/off control of
almost any type of light or appliance up to 13A.
[LM15] BAYONET FIT X10 MODULE: For use with conventional (100W
max) filament bulbs only, not for use with energy saver or fluorescent
bulbs. Provides on/off only (not dimmable).
What on earth is an "inductive" or "resistive" load?
A resistive load is, as you'd expect, purely resistive and has nothing else
that affects its power requirements. For example appliances with resistive
loads include; toasters, electric fires, electric ovens, kettles, conventional
filament type lamps, etc.
In electrical terms an "inductor" is a number of turns of wire wrapped
around a core and "inductance" is the ability of this coil to store energy. It
follows that an inductive load is something which contains coils, usually
in the form of motors, solenoids or relays. Inductive loads usually require
more power when they first start up than they do to continue running. For
example, appliances with inductive loads include; power tools, washing
machines, spin dryers, high powered amplifiers, arc welders,
fridge/freezers and anything else likely to have lots of coils in it....

Another interesting gadget, this unit
contains an X10 controlled beeper and a
pair of normally open isolated contacts.
It can be set to operate as a beeper only,
a contact relay only, or both. The
isolated contacts can be set for
momentary or sustained closure and can
switch up to 5A at 24v DC (30v AC at
5A). When set for momentary operation
the contacts, close and then open again
after about two seconds. In this mode, OFF commands are ignored. In
continuous mode it closes the contacts on receipt of an ON signal and
opens them again when it receives an OFF (or ALL OFF) signal. Think
of it as an X10 controlled heavy duty switch, ideal for use in electronic
projects eg door/window openers, watering systems, thermostats, etc.

Remote controls
For those of you that would like to have X10
control of your existing low voltage (12V)
halogen lighting we've sourced some high
quality replacement transformers. They're
fully compatible with X10 and once fitted
you can use an LD10 or LW10 for X10 on off
and dim/brighten commands. The transformers are very well made
with low operating noise and are self resetting with inbuilt short
circuit and overload protection. For ease of connection each unit has
two pairs of input terminals and two pairs of output terminals. Output
rating 105VA (say 5 x 20W bulbs)

Memory cards
Types of memory
card
All of these cards essentially
do the same job which is to
store data, be it music (MP3
files) pictures or data. They
can be thought of as a solid
state (no moving parts)
floppy disc with a greater
storage capacity and much
quicker read/write times.
They are mostly used in
MP3 players, digital stills
cameras, hand held
computers (PDAs) and some
camcorders. Since they can
hold different type of
information they can be all
be thought of as
multimedia cards, but (and
this is where it gets
confusing) there is only one
that is actually called a
"multimedia card"
Compact Flash
type 1 cards are
about the size
of a book of
matches and have 50 pin
hole connectors in two
rows along one edge of the
card. They can also be used
in type 11 slots and a
PCMCIA (laptop) slot with
an adaptor
Compact Flash
Ultra2 cards are
a faster version
of the type 1
card. Ideal for use in
professional photography
where it is important to be
able to write a large image
to disk quickly in order to
get the next shot. CF Ultra
2 cards have a sustained
write speed of 9MB/second,
ideal for high speed high
quality digital photography.
Cruiser Flash drives
Portable USB1/USB2 data
storage. Available in: Micro:
super small overall size, up
to 2GB, Mini: slim design
up to 4GB, Titanium: super
tough casing.
Multimedia
cards (MMC)
are about
postage stamp
size
(32x24mmx1.4mm)
Reduced Size
Multimedia (RSMMC series) are
even smaller at
18x24x1.4mm. All RSMMC
cards are supplied complete
with an adaptor so that
they may be used in devices
requiring conventional
sized MMC.
130
Secure Digital
(SD) are almost
identical to
Multimedia
cards but have
an added write protect tag.
Multimedia cards may be
used in SD card slots, but
not vice versa.
Mini-SD cards
are 60% smaller
than a standard
SD card.
Smart Media
(SM) cards
measure 45 x
37 x 0.76mm
XD cards
measure 20 x
25 x 1.7mm
Memory Stick
measures 50 x
21.5 x 2.8 mm
and has a
maximum
capacity of 128MB.
Memory Stick
Duo is a
smaller (20 x
31 x 1.6mm)
version of Memory Stick
and may be used in a
Memory stick slot with an
adaptor.
Memory Stick
PRO is the
same physical
size as Memory Stick with
larger capacity although it
can only be used with
Memory Stick PRO
compatible devices – it is
NOT interchangeable with
Memory Stick!
Memory Stick
PRO DUO is a
smaller version
of Memory
Stick Pro and may be used
in Memory Stick Pro
devices with the
adaptor.
Memory Stick
Pro Ultra2 has a
faster write
speed and is designed for
pro digital photography
Memory Stick Micro M2
Are a reduced size memory
stick for mobile phone use
Transflash cards
are about the
size of a mobile
SIM card and
designed for mobile data
Extreme E3 memory
designed for professional
photographers, they have a
minimum 9MB/sec write
speed, handle extreme
temperatures and have a
lifetime warranty.
We can supply storage media for just about any digital device on the market.
If you can't see the type of card you need (or you're just not sure!) please give us a
call and we'll do our best to help.

Quick guide to splicing video tape
Trim away all damaged/crinkled tape and discard
If the tape has snapped near to one end, trim out all the damaged tape and make the join to the
leader.
Clamp the tape ends in place so that they overlap and make a 45 degree cut
For video tape put the joining tape on the side that faces towards the tape housing only and very
carefully trim away any excess with the blade
Carefully wind it back into the housing, play it once only (to make a copy) and then discard it
Remember that this is a risky process as video heads are very fragile!

Instant Telephone Extension
Laser pointer
Here's a clever idea - add a phone
extension anywhere you have a
mains socket! This new device turns
ordinary electrical sockets into
telephone outlets (no extra wiring
required) through Phone Line Carrier
technology.
These can be used to connect
computer modems, video set-topboxes (ideal for Sky!), Internet appliances, phone or fax machines and
anything else you might want to connect to the telephone line. It
consists of a base unit and an extension unit. Both units are adaptortype plugs, which fit into a std UK 3 pin mains outlet. In each adaptor
there is a telephone socket. The base unit is plugged into the
telephone socket, close to the telephone, and at a second location
(e.g. at the computer) the extension unit is plugged in and connected
with telephone wire to the equipment which needs a telephone
signal. The product is completely plug and play - with no software
required. Note that the speed of data transfer through the Wireless
Phone Line Extender is limited to 33kbps and is suitable for analogue
phone lines only.

Welcome to the 2007 Edition of Keene
Electronics catalogue
How to order
Dear AV Enthusiast
By telephone:
W
elcome to our catalogue for 2007. This issue contains our biggest
ever collection of audio and video accessories, including those hard
to find gadgets, gizmos, connectors and problem solvers. We never stop
searching for useful new products and if we can’t find them we even
design and manufacture them ourselves. We like to think that it’s this level
of in-house technical knowledge and ability that will give you a better
shopping experience than so many of the faceless box-shifters that exist
today. You’ll find this catalogue full of information that passes on our
knowledge and experience and we hope it helps you to make more
informed choices about the products you buy. We endeavour to provide
you with:
Free advice from knowledgeable and friendly staff
Fast delivery from massive stocks
Very competitive prices
We’ve been trading in AV accessories since 1988 and have always kept a
close eye on the developments in the industry, making sure that we have
the right products for your recording and viewing needs. We hope you
enjoy browsing this catalogue and that you find the information useful.

Opening Hours
I think I’ve found what I want...
When you’ve found the items you want, our mail/telephone/fax order form can
be found inside the back cover. It will help us to deliver the exact products you
need as quickly as possible if you quote their order codes – shown in the
catalogue mainly in square brackets thus [XXX] and on a yellow background.
If, before buying, you want to know anything more about a product than our
catalogue description, give us a call. We understand that it can be difficult to be
sure when ordering by post, and if you want us to we’ll run into the warehouse,
get the item you’re interested in and weigh it, measure it, describe it, or just sort
of wave it around near the phone. However, please be aware that while many of
our staff can help with technical questions, a little patience may on occasions be
required if they are engaged on other calls. Also, as our resident egg-heads need
their beauty sleep, please try to keep calls with technical queries between
9.00–5.30 Monday–Friday, 9.00–5.00 Saturdays.
Personal customer reference
If this catalogue was delivered to you by post,
along with it you should have received a
printed piece of paper headed ‘Customer
copy’ detailing the items you ordered. On the
top right of this sheet you will find your own
personal customer number. If you take time to
write this into the space below so that you can
quote it in future, we will be able to save you
time on the phone by locating your records
more easily. Please note we do not keep a
record of your credit card number so you will
require this when ordering by telephone.
If you got the catalogue in some other way,
your customer reference number will appear
on the Customer copy delivered with your first
order.
Our showrooms are open between
9.00am and 5.30pm Monday to Friday,
9.00am and 5.00pm Saturdays. Please
make customer service and technical calls
within these hours. We close on
Sundays and Bank Holidays.
