Chapter 1: Introduction Reference Guide: CT2200HDV Page 1 May 07 Introduction to the CT2200HDV Preliminary Remarks The present manual is provided for users and operators of the CT2200HDV Transmitter. It is intended to support the installation, operation, maintenance and daily use of the unit in general. The manual should be kept with the CT2200HDV Transmitter and may be consulted when questions occur. If problems should remain after you have read the manual carefully or if you have any further questions concerning the functionality or operation of the Transmitter, please contact the Customer Service.

Chapter 1: Introduction Reference Guide: CT2200HDV Page 2 May 07 Description General Information on D-ENG (Digital Electronic News Gathering) The introduction of the DVB standard established the basis for digital broadcast video transmission making efficient use of the available bandwidth. Powerful compression algorithms allow a reduction in the amount of data to be transferred, while maintaining the high quality standards for video and audio signals used in broad-casting applications. New modulation techniques and error correction algorithms ensure a secure signal transmission even when the transmission conditions are poor. The DVB-T standard was established for terrestrial digital TV broadcasting, in particular considering the difficult conditions of radio transmission. The highly efficient OFDM multicarrier modulation procedure enables transmission without interference even under multipath propagation conditions occurring with nondirectional transmission or reception. Practical experience soon has proved that the DVB-T standard guarantees ruggedness of transmission to an extent even allowing mobile reception. Increasing miniaturization, in particular of MPEG encoders and OFDM modulators, enables using the DVB-T standard for mobile portable transmission systems. Previous analog FM systems were adversely affected by signal reflections directly resulting in video and audio interferences. Such effects do not occur when the digital ENG system (D-ENG) is deployed. Even mobile transmission from moving vehicles or the use of omnidirectional antennas on the transmitting or receiving side does not impair the picture or sound quality at all, opening a completely new range of applications in TV production and news gathering. Functional Overview Figure 1 Block Diagram of the CT2200HDV The CT2200HDV essentially contains the following functional blocks: • MPEG-2 COFDM Modulator • D/A Converter • IQ-Modulator • Linear Low-Power Amplifier. IEEE1394a (Firewire) COFDM Modulator D A I Q IQ Linear - Power Amplifier Output
Chapter 1: Introduction Reference Guide: CT2200HDV Page 3 May 07 Video Inputs The CT2200HDV accepts only HDV encoded information at the input: • HDV IEEE-1394a (Firewire) CT2200HDV operates with all currently available HDV cameras. OFDM Modulator The digital data signal for wireless transmission is processed by the OFDM Modulator and following IQ MOdulator. The OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) modulation procedure has a major impact on the transmission properties and was specifically developed for terrestrial radio transmission. The setup of the OFDM modulator occurs automatically dependent on HDV format of the camera. Each setting is well proven and provides best quality for the customer without any need of OFDM Modulator setup. User interface With its integrated Multifunctional Display it is easy to set up the transmit frequency, display contrast and automatic display cutoff. The current Software version can also be displayed. Low-Power Linear Amplifier The linear power amplifier amplifies the output signal of the Modulator to an output of about 400 mW (+26 dBm). The output port of the Low-Power Amplifier is located on top of the CT2200HDV.
Chapter 3: Options and Upgrades Reference Guide: CT2200HDV Page 4 May 07 Installing the Equipment Safety instructions Warning The regulations of VDE0100 must be observed for installation and operation of the unit. Caution • Establish all other connections before starting the unit by connecting it to 12VDC. Essential a valid video signal must be connected to the desired input before power on the CT2200HDV. • When you connect the CT2200HDV as described in the following sections, make sure that the "Caution" instructions given there are observed. • Make sure that there is sufficient air circulation to ensure adequate cooling of the unit. External forced ventilation may be required if the unit is installed in a rack or cabinet.
Chapter 3: Options and Upgrades Reference Guide: CT2200HDV Page 5 May 07 Connectors Figure 2 Input connector of the CT2200HDV • RF Connector The RF output signal of the Low-Power Amplifier is fed out at the SMA(f) connector on top of the unit. The CT2200HDV provides a RF output of about 400mW (+26dBm). The signal may be further amplified by a secondary amplifier optimized for HD-COFDM signals. See section "Connecting the RF Output", page 6
Chapter 3: Options and Upgrades Reference Guide: CT2200HDV Page 6 May 07 Connecting Signal Sources The encoded Video/Audiosignal supplied by the camera have to applied to the IEEE 1394a connector of the transmitter. Connecting the RF Output A Omni directional antenna with SMA(m) connector can be directly mount at the RF out socket. Connecting the 12VDC Supply Voltage Caution When using a battery or power pack, make sure that the maximum supply current is at least 3A and the output voltage matches the input voltage range of the CT2200HDV. Failure to comply with these requirements may cause fatal damage to the battery/power pack and/or CT2200HDV. Battery Powered Operation of the CT2200HDV Many types of batteries are available on the market and we tried to support the best ones. On this way it is possible to order the Transmitter with Anton Bauer or Sony V-Mount. Others on request. Shut-Down Caution To shut-down the unit, first disconnect it from the 12VDC supply voltage. After disconnection from the supply voltage by removing the battery or disconnecting the 12VDC supply cable, the other connecting cables can be removed from the unit.

B.1.6 TV Pick-Up Channel Assignments for US and Canadian Users The preferred channel arrangement defined for the TV pick-up systems are up to seven 12 MHz one-way RF channels in the 2025 to 2110 MHz band.
Annex B: Technical Specification Reference Guide: CT2200HDV Page B-3 May 07 In the major metropolitan preference will be given to TV pick-ups. Elsewhere, the level of priority access given to TV pick-ups will be at the discretion of the regional offices. To the extent possible, TV pick-up usage should avoid the spectrum designated for very low capacity systems. Arrangement: Band G(n) = 2019.5 + 12n Where: n = 1 to 7, and G(n) is the centre frequency of the channel in MHz. G1: 2031.50 G2: 2043.50 G3: 2055.50 G4: 2067.50 G5: 2079.50 G6: 2091.50 G7: 2103.50 Due to the large area affected by helicopter usage of TV Pick-ups, some restrictions on the number of TV Pick-up channels available for this application may be applied by the regional offices. These restrictions may be based on consideration of factors such as frequency assignment re-use, availability of assignments in other TV Pick-up bands and co-existence with point-to-point systems. Note: The TV Pick-up channel plan is harmonized with Canada and USA, and may be changed in accordance with the future changes and availability of equipment.
