LAYOUT OF THE BBV Tx1000 KEYPAD Connections Having mounted the base unit on the wall or in a rack, continue as follows: 1. Connect the keypad to 9-pin D socket marked "Keypad 1". 2. Connect a BNC cable from output M1 to the keypad, and connect the other keypad connection to the video monitor’s video input. Make sure that the monitor is terminated not Hi-Z. 3. If the keypad is remotely sited from the base unit, connect the 9Vdc plug-mounted power supply to the keypad via the 2.1mm power connector. 4.
CAMERA SELECTION A camera may be selected onto the controlled monitor by pressing the relevant numbered camera key, 1-16. MONITOR SELECTION The monitor key has a red LED, which is lit when the keypad is controlling the second monitor output. Pressing the monitor key toggles between controlling monitor 1 and monitor 2. SEQUENCE ACTIVATION Pressing the sequence key will start the camera sequence on the currently selected monitor.
KEYPAD FUNCTIONS The keypads should not be connected or disconnected from a "live" working unit, as this may damage the RS232 components. Priority control between two keypad systems Keypad one has priority over keypad two. If keypad one is only viewing but not operating any camera, then keypad two may move that same camera. After movement commands on keypad one, there is a 20-second or so lock-out period before control is given to keypad two.
SELF TEST To activate the self test feature for any particular camera receiver, first select that receiver, then press the Program button and select Menu Option 2.

INTRODUCTION GENERAL The EX-4 Keypad Expander is designed to allow a single Tx1000 keyboard to control up to four Tx1000 base units. 64 Cameras can be selected and controlled when all four base units are connected. The EX-4 is supplied in a 19" rack mountable enclosure.
3. INSTALLATION All necessary cables are provided with each EX-4 to connect to four base units as shown below. Each base unit requires a RS232 connection to it's keypad connector and also coax from monitor output to EX-4/8. Base unit number 1 supplies power for the EX-4, to maintain a low resistance path do not extend this RS232 cable. The other RS232 cables can be extended up to 50M. Should a greater distance be require, then a TxLD can be used to allow operation 500M between EX-4 and base unit.
4. OPERATION Operation is transparent. Each base unit is selected using the following key presses: Press and HOLD '#' Tap '1 - 4' (Base unit 1 - 4) Release '#' Further key presses will pass to this base unit as normal. To aid with identification of selected base unit and camera, the camera number is prefixed with 'A' - 'D' representing selected base unit. Example: Assume that four Tx1000/16 base units are connected to the EX-4.
