CamPac2 Description M13-0003-00A 9 1.0 DESCRIPTION The CamPac2 is a small lightweight HD/SD COFDM microwave transmitter intended for wireless camera applications including sports coverage and electronic news gathering (ENG). Its stylish, rugged machined housing provides durability and excellent thermal characteristics for operation in the harshest of conditions. The transmitter can be mounted on video cameras using integrated battery adapter plates. Anton Bauer style plates are standard, though IDX/Sony “V" clip may also be used. The CamPac2 transmitter includes an integrated MPEG2 encoder and variable bandwidth COFDM modulator. This next generation, high quality MPEG2 encoder can be configured for HD and SD operation -or- for SD operation only, while both versions have an ultra-low latency mode for sports coverage. The encoder has the ability to be upgraded to MPEG4/H.264. The variable bandwidth modulator offers very high data rates through efficient use of available bandwidth. Data rates in the 20 to 50 Mbps rate can be achieved in the robust QPSK, 16-QAM or 64-QAM formats. While the CP2 can be configured to utilize COFDM bandwidths from 5-16MHz, the 6/7/8 MHz bandwidth modes are DVB-T compliant to ensure compatibility with any DVB-T standard system. The CamPac2 accepts HD/SD SDI, ASI, Analog Component and Composite video input formats. The dual audio inputs can be configured for mic or line input. CamPac2 will also accept SDI Embedded audio. The audio gains are easily set using the programmable gain and the digital VU meters displayed on the color TFT display. The control panel uses a unique rotary dial that senses the position of the user’s finger when pressure is applied and rotated around the disk. By dialing around the wheel and using the (Esc) ▲and (Ent) ▼buttons, you can navigate through the menu system. The CP2 can be controlled remotely via RS 232/RS485 using a PDA or PC, and the control panel may be removed and remoted up to 100 feet away with an optional extender. An N-type RF connector allows the CamPac2 to be used for applications where connection to a remote antenna is required. For wireless camera applications, an Omni-directional antenna attaches directly to the RF output connector, ensuring maximum EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power). The CP2 unit consists of a Base and a Power Amplifier Module (PAM). The first generation CP2 used an “IF” style interface between the Base and PAM. The second generation CP2 uses an “IQ” style interface. Note: Earlier CamPac2 “IF” based units do not support swapping PAM’s. “IQ” based units do support interchangeable PAM’s. The RF function of the unit is determined by the upconverter and amplifier installed in the PAM. The unit is programmed with operating frequencies and frequency ranges per customer specification, allowing users to customize their RF selections. The currently available operating bands are (check with Nucomm for availability of other bands and PAM’s): 2GHz PAM: 1.990 - 2.700 GHz 7GHz PAM: 5.725 - 5.850 GHz 6.425 - 6.525 GHz 6.875 - 7.125 GHz
CamPac2 Description M13-0003-00A 10 The “IQ” based CP2 can be factory configured for either News or Professional use, depending on the encoder style installed in the Base. This configuration is not field selectable or swappable, and the customer must specify either the “N” or the “P” style when ordering. The News (N) style CP2 supports very low latency operation as required by broadcasters for live shots, with superb fidelity. The Professional (P) style CP2 favors exquisite fidelity over low latency, as desired for non-live applications. In an IQ based unit, the Base outputs a digital IQ modulated signal. The PAM receives the IQ signal and converts it to the final RF output frequency .
CamPac2 Features M13-0003-00A 11 2.0 FEATURES The CamPac2 was specifically designed for portable use as a camera back transmitter or in helicopters applications. The CamPac2 features a fully adjustable software modulator that can be re-configured with multiple modulation formats in the field. This is extremely important since, as new modulation schemes emerge, the CamPac2 can be upgraded to meet customer requirements as the customer’s needs change. The CamPac2 has also been designed with an integrated 4:2:2/4:2:0 MPEG-2 encoder, and a COFDM modulator for multi-path tolerant transmission/reception. Depending on the video output or camera type, the CamPac2 accepts NTSC or PAL composite, component, or SDI video. Two physical audio inputs for a total of four channels are selectable between standard analog audio, and AES/EBU digital audio. An embedded digital audio can be selected, if it is present within the input SDI video signal. Optional BISS encryption is available. 2.1 RF POWER OUTPUT Depending on which mode the unit has been set to, (in the System menu, under the Power Control option), either TXPower Auto OFF –or – TXPower Auto ON, users can choose from the fixed Power Control settings, (25mW or 100mW) – or – for special circumstances, users can scroll through the rotary dial for a flexible, variable output that runs between 0 and 51 (depending on the unit). For more information regarding the set up of TX Power Modes and Power Control Outputs, refer to the Operation section. 2.2 PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUTS The CamPac2 utilizes four programmable presets to allow rapid selection of different transmitter parameters. These are fully configurable and can be modified via the Front Panel sensor wheel and LCD menu selections. For more information on Presets, see the section in this document entitled, Presets. 2.3 POWER SOURCES The CamPac2 normally receives its primary power from a “clip-on” battery. However, located on the bottom panel of the CamPac2 is a four-pin XLR connector for use with an external DC power supply. This connection is designed to add flexibility in certain system configurations, such as installation in vehicles or aircraft. 2.4 STANDBY OPTION In the default state, the unit will output an RF signal immediately upon powering up. It is recommended that an antenna or terminating load is connected to the RF connector. The CamPac2’s RF output can be muted, via the MAIN MENU/STANDBY selection. By placing the unit in standby mode, the user may safely replace antennas or tune the unit without radiating any emissions. When the unit is in standby mode, the LCD will display “STBY” in the upper left corner. When the unit is taken out of standby mode, the LCD will display “TX” and the CamPac2 will output RF at the selected power.

CamPac2 Installation M13-0003-00A 19 4.0 INSTALLATION 4.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION Unpack and visually inspect the unit for LCD, connector, or surface area damage. All claims should be filed with the carrier. Save all shipping and packing materials for possible re-use. 4.2 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECK Connect the CamPac2 output through a 2-watt, 20-dB attenuator to a spectrum analyzer to observe the output frequency on the analyzer display. After connecting a suitable power source to the unit, turn the unit on. Set the spectrum analyzer frequency to the frequency of the channel being observed on the CamPac2. 4.3 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION The CamPac2 comes standard with an Anton Bauer Mounting Bracket Assembly. This allows the CamPac2 and battery to be quickly attached or removed from a portable video camera. This design is ideal for field use. Mounting the Camera To mount the CamPac2 unit to a camera, do the following: 1. Orient the CamPac2 Guide Pins (Figure 2 and 3) so that the antenna connector is positioned to the top of the CamPac2. 2. Next, place the CamPac2 Guide Pins into the corresponding camera mounting slots. (See Figure 2). 3. Slide the CamPac2 onto the mounting bracket until you hear the thumb-catch lock. Ensure that there is no play between the CamPac2 and the camera. 4. Screw the antenna onto the CamPac2. Ensure that the antenna is secure. 5. Orient the Battery Guide Pins to the CamPac2. 6. Slide the battery onto the CamPac2 until you hear the thumb-lock catch. Ensure that there is no play between the battery and the CamPac2, (See Figure 3). 7. Connect the desired camera outputs to the CamPac2. NOTE: When setting up the CamPac2, ensure that the Main Menu selections match the physical connections. Figure 1: System Check

CamPac2 Installation M13-0003-00A 21 4.4 CONNECTIONS Video: The video inputs to the CamPac2 are either through the 12 pin LEMO connector or a 75-Ohm coaxial cable with BNC connectors (See Figure 6). Connect the video source to the appropriate video input: HD/SD-SDI – For Serial Digital Interface. ASI or Composite, Analog Component. Audio: The CamPac2 supports three audio types, which are connected similarly. Analog and AES audio connections to the CamPac2 are through the two 5-pin XLR audio connections (Figure 9) directly next to the video connections. They are: 5 Pin XLR Audio 1 connector - Channel 1/ Channel 2 = MIC or line level. 5 Pin XLR Audio 2 connector - Channel 3/ Channel 4 = line level or AES Embedded digital audio is input through the BNC connector. This requires that whenever Embedded is selected as the audio source, SDI must be selected as the video source. Power: The CamPac2 normally receives power from an external “clip-on” battery. In addition, there is an alternate power input port available on the bottom panel of the CamPac2 via a 4-pin XLR external power connection (Figure 9). Remote: A micro USB Remote connector is provided next to the bottom plate. This is used to interface between the CamPac2 and a PC or a PDA. Figure 4: 5 Pin Female XLR to Two 3 Pin Male XLR

CamPac2 Menu Tree M13-0003-00A 38 Terms & Definitions 16QAM (16 phase Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) A digital modulation technique that combines amplitude modulation and phase shift keying (16-phase-states) in sending data. This type of modulation supports a transfer rate up to 14 Mbps. 64QAM (64 phase Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) A digital modulation technique that combines amplitude modulation and phase shift keying (64-phase-states) in sending data. This type of modulation supports a transfer rate up to 28 Mbps. AES/EBU (Audio Engineering Society/European Broadcasting Union) is an older standard developed for transferal of digital audio signals. The AES/EBU specifies a single cable in carrying audio data for both digital left- and right-channels to a receiving device. Normally, a 3 pin XLR cable is used. Composite Video A single analog video signal encoded with luminance (brightness), chrominance (color), horizontal, and vertical synchronization information, is preset within the signal. COFDM (Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) A type of modulation scheme where more than a 1000 signals are generated from a single signal, and transmitted at right angles to each other. This is to reduce signal loss by a receiver due to obstructions and reflections. DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting -Terrestrial) An international digital broadcast standard developed in Europe. DVB-T specifies a bandwidth of 6 to 8 MHz per channel, while utilizing MPEG-2 video compression and MPEG audio compression. EIRP Effective Isotropic Radiated Power. FEC (Forward Error Correction) A transmission technique that utilizes error correction data being sent with the carrier signal for possible signal re-generation by the receiver should errors be detected. GOP (Group Of Pictures) A sequence of frames within an MPEG-2 stream to allow video editing and splicing from different signal sources. IDX Anton-Bauer Battery Clip
CamPac2 Menu Tree M13-0003-00A 39 MPEG (Moving Picture Expert Group) A family of standards that utilizes complex compression techniques to encode audio-video information into a signal. NTSC (National Television Systems Committee) A United States based organization, which develops technical standards for broadcasting. PAL (Phase Alternating Line) The European standard for video broadcast. PAM Removable, frequency determining module called the RF Power Amplifier Module of the CamPac2. PID (Package Identifier) Information located at the beginning of a transmitted packet that tells the receiver what to do with the packet. QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) A digital frequency modulation technique where a single phase carrier is modulated into a four phase signal, with each quadrant represented by a two digit binary number. The signal is then transmitted and demodulated by the receiver into frequency independent voltage levels. SDI (Serial Digital Interface) A digital video format utilizing a 270 Mbps (for Standard Definition) or 1.5Gbps (for High Definition) data rate. The signal consists of a 10-bit, serial interface for both digital video and four channels of embedded digital audio. SDI requires a standard 75-ohm BNC connector and coax cable for connection to a device. Symbol A single Symbol can be considered one phase-state of a QPSK signal. All four Symbols used together can be considered the baud rate of the signal. Transport Stream When several video and analog inputs are multiplexed into a single data stream for transmission.
