Video Modulator
The Leviton 48213-VMA is a digitally-tuned video modulator that converts any baseband video and audio
signal to a user selected UHF or ultra band CATV channel. The user selects the output frequency (channel)
using the PROGRAM switches to enter the number of the desired channel. Any TV connected to the output
via coax can receive the signals when the TV is tuned to the proper channel.
NOTE: This modulator can also be connected through the Structured Media™ Center (SMC) (ideal for
connecting home security cameras). In this set-up, the modulator must be specially configured to
transmit audio signals.
PREPARING THE LOCATION
This modulator may be situated directly between the source (VCR, DVD, satellite receiver) and the television
or monitor. This will enable it to receive and transmit audio signals.
NOTE: To mount Video Modulator in an SMC: Line up the push pins with holes, with the pins in the “out”
position. Push each pin to lock module into place.
Running the Cables
To connect video via the 3x8 Bi-Directional Video Module, located in your SMC, the Video Modulator requires:
A.
An RG-6 quad shield coaxial cable run from the source to the Modulator in the SMC, and then to the 3x8
Bi-Directional Video Module, where a signal can be combined with CATV and routed to up to 8 televisions
throughout the home.
B.
Two RCA-to-F-Connectors, to connect satellite, camera or DVD/VCR to the RG-6 cable running to the SMC
and then to connect the RG-6 cable to the Modulator.
CONNECTING THE VIDEO MODULATOR
To Provide Power
The Video Modulator comes with an external power supply adapter, which will provide 12VDC 100mA to the
unit. Plug the power adapter into the power input on the top of the unit, and plug the pronged end into a
standard AC power outlet.
To Connect Incoming Video/Audio Signals (Figure 1)
A. VIA THE SMC:
Connect an RCA-to-F-Connector from your security camera, DVD player, VCR, or satellite
to the RG-6 coaxial cable that runs to the SMC. At the SMC, use another RCA-to-F-Connector to connect
the cable to the RCA INPUTS on the Video Modulator.
B. VIA LOCAL CONNECTION:
Using an RCA-to-RCA cable, connect your Security Camera, DVD player, VCR,
or Satellite directly to the RCA INPUT on the Video Modulator.
To Connect Outgoing Modulated Signal (Figure 1)
A. TO 3X8 BI-DIRECTIONAL VIDEO MODULE:
Use coaxial cable to connect the Video Modulator to the 3x8
Bi-Directional Video Module (PN# 47690-38B) in your SMC. Connect the cable from the coaxial output
on the Video Modulator to an auxiliary input on the top of the 3x8 Bi-Directional Video Module. The 3x8
Bi-Directional Video Module will then distribute the signal to up to eight televisions throughout the home.
For more information, refer to the instructions that come with your 3x8 Bi-Directional Video Module.
NOTE: To block out an incoming signal for cable channels 75-80, and reserve them strictly for modulated
input, use a Notch Filter (PN# 47690-NFA) between the incoming CATV service cable and the CATV
input of your 3x8 Bi-Directional Video Module.
