GENERAL
This manual is a guide to the installation and operation of
the V700 series fiber optic video transmission system.
Please read the entire manual before installing the equip-
ment.
NOTE:
The series numbers V700T and V700R are used
to describe all models of transmitters and receivers
unless noted otherwise.
The V700 series video transmission system offers one-
way transmission of composite video from a camera to a
monitoring station. The V700 system operates over one
multimode fiber.
A complete system consists of a transmitter, V700T, and a
receiver, V700R.
Units are designed for standalone operation or for instal-
lation in Vicon’s V515R-PS or V517R-PS Card Cages
(V700T-R and V700R-R).
Both the V700T transmitter and V700R receiver have one
video input connector and one fiber connector.

INSTALLATION
Installation Considerations
This fiber-optic link is supplied in two forms, as a stand-
alone module and as a rack card. Units should be
installed in dry locations protected from extremes of tem-
perature and humidity.
Standalone Modules
1. Determine where the module is to be installed and
ensure that there is adequate space at both ends for
making the various cable connections and for reading
the diagnostic LEDs.
2. Standalone modules are provided with mounting
holes for four No. 6 screws (3-mm or 3.5-mm
screws). The type of screw chosen must be suitable
for the surface on which the module is to be mount-
ed. See Figure 2.
Rack Cards
Rack cards are designed to be installed in one of Vicon’s
19-inch (483-mm) EIA standard card-cage racks, either
the V515R-PS or the V517R-PS.
CAUTION:
Although a rack card may be installed
without turning off power to the rack (hot-swap-
pable), Vicon recommends that the power switch on
the rack power supply is turned OFF and that the
rack power supply is disconnected from any power
source.
1. Make sure that the card is oriented right-side up and
slide it into the card guides in the rack until the edge
connector at the back of the card seats in the corre-
sponding slot in the rack’s connector panel. Seating
may require thumb pressure on the top and bottom of
the card’s front panel.
CAUTION:
Take care not to press on any of the
LEDs.
2. Tighten the two thumb screws on the card until the
front panel of the card is seated against the front of
the rack.
