Video Sender
AUDIO/VIDEO EXTENDER SYSTEM
OWNER'S MANUAL
MODEL 15-1972
(INCLUDES 15-1972, TRANSMITTER
AND 15-1971R, RECEIVER, PLUS TWO
PLUG-IN POWER SUPPLIES, AND ALL
REQUIRED CONNECTING CABLES)
INTRODUCTION
Your Wireless Video Sender kit consists of a transmitter base unit
which connects to your DSS receiver, and a receiver unit which
connects to the TV in another room. The Video Sender Transmitter
converts the A/V signal from your DSS into a radio signal and
transmits it (even through walls) to the Video Sender Receiver unit.
The Video Sender Receiver converts the signals back to A/V signals
which are fed through a cable to your TV's A/V input jacks.
By purchasing an optional Remote Control Extender (Cat. No. 151959) can control other A/V products such as VCRs, Cable Boxes,
etc. while watching a TV in another room.

installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by unplugging the equipment, try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures.
• Reorient the antenna of the radio/TV experiencing the interference.
• Relocate the equipment with respect to the radio/TV.
• Move the equipment away from the radio/TV.

1. Connect one set of Audio/Video cables to the VIDEO and AUDIO
jacks of your Video Transmitter. Take care to match the colors of
the plugs on the cable with the jacks on the Video Transmitter.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the Audio/Video OUT jacks
on your TV. Take care to match the colors of the plugs on the
cable with the jacks on the TV. If the jacks on the TV are colored
differently, connect the yellow plug to the jack labelled VIDEO, the
red plug to the jack labelled AUDIO RIGHT and the white plug to
the jack labeled AUDIO LEFT.
Note: If your TV does not include Audio/Video OUT jacks, you
will need to remake the connections as shown in diagram b) using
the TV antenna (coaxial) connections to link up the DSS Receiver/
Cable Box/VCR to your TV.

3. Plug the Video Transmitter's Power Supply into a convenient 120
volt wall outlet and plug its jack into the Video Transmitter.
4. Position the Video Transmitter in a convenient location such as on
top of the TV and orient the antenna so that the flat side points in
the direction of the room where you will be installing the Video
Receiver.

HOOKING
UP THE
VIDEO RECEIVER
1. Connect a set of Audio/Video cables the A/V OUT jacks of your
Video Receiver. Connect the other end to your TV.
COMPONENTS
If you have two or more A/V
components (e.g. DSS, VCR, Cable
Box, Video Disk etc.) that you want to
watch in another room, they will
probably already be hooked up to the
local TV in series (see the diagram to
the right). To connect the Video
Transmitter you just need to identify the
last component in the chain and
connect its LINE OUT jacks to the Video
Transmitter's LINE IN jacks.
If the last component in the chain does
not have spare LINE OUT jacks,
reconnect the local TV to the last
component in the chain using coaxial
cables to connect the VHF/UHF ports,
then use the A/V connections for the
Video Transmitter.
Fully extend the telescopic antenna if
you intend to use the IR Extender
feature (See page 14).
2. Plug the Video Receiver's Power Supply into a 120 volt wall outlet
and plug its jack into the Video Receiver.
3. Position the Video Receiver in a convenient location such as on
top of the TV and orient the antenna so that the flat side points in
the direction of the room where you set up the Video Transmitter.
IF
YOUR
TV
DOES NOT HAVE
A/V
CONNECTORS
You can use the supplied
coaxial cable to connect the
TV OUT socket on the Video
Receiver to the Antenna
input on your TV. If you
already have an antenna
connected to your TV, you
will need to use a TV
antenna splitter.
Set your TV and the TV
Channel switch on the Video
Receiver (on bottom) to the
same channel (3 or 4).

IF YOUR SECOND TV RECEIVER IS ALREADY
RECEIVER OR OTHER A/V DEVICE
If your DSS Receiver or other A/V
component is connected to the TV using
A/V cables, you can connect the Video
Receiver to the free LINE IN jacks on
the component. If there are no LINE IN
jacks, you will need to use a TV
antenna splitter as described earlier.
HOOKED UP TO A
YOUR
VIDEO SENDER
DSS
The Wireless Video Sender usually works best with the flat faces of
the antennas on the Transmitter and Receiver unit facing each other
(i.e. in “Line of sight” - see diagram below). Sometimes, however,
reflections and other effects in the home may affect the signal so that
some adjustment of either the Transmitter or Receiver antenna may be
necessary to get the best the signal.
IF YOU WANT TO USE YOUR
VIDEO TRANSMITTER TO TRANSMIT
FROM YOUR STEREO SYSTEM ONLY
Just hook up the Video Transmitter using
only the red and white jacks for the
right and left channels of the audio
signal. Leave the yellow (video) jacks
unconnected.
IF
YOU ARE NOT GETTING ANY SIGNAL AT ALL
Check that the CHANNEL slide switch (labeled 1 to 4) on both
Video Sender units (on bottom) is set to the same number.
If you are using coaxial TV connections from the Video Receiver,
check that the TV is tuned to the same channel as the TV Channel
switch on the bottom of the Video Receiver (3 or 4).
IF
THE SIGNAL IS POOR, OR THERE IS INTERFERENCE
Try changing the channel on both Video Sender units. Do this by
adjusting the CHANNEL slide switch on the bottom of each Video
Sender unit to any position from 1-4. Make sure both units are set to
the same channel.
