IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT LEAD FREE, (PbF), SOLDERING If lead free solder was used in the manufacture of this product the printed circuit boards will be marked PbF.
We will use PbF solder when discussing the lead free solder used in our manufacturing process which is made from Tin, (Sn), Silver, (Ag), and Copper, (Cu). This model, and others like it, manufactured using lead free solder will have PbF stamped on the PCB. For service and repair work we suggest using the same type of solder although, with some precautions, standard Pb solder can also be used.
2. FOR SERVICE TECHNICIANS ICs and LSIs are vulnerable to static electricity. When replacing, the following precautions will help to prevent recurring malfunctions. 1. Cover the plastic parts with aluminum foil. 2. Ground the soldering irons. 3. Use a conductive mat on the work-table.
4. Do not grasp IC or LSI pins with bare fingers. 3. CAUTION 3.1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1. Before servicing, unplug the power cord to prevent an electrical shock. 2. When replacing parts, use only manufacturer’s recommended components for safety. 3. Check the condition of power cord. Replace if wear or damage is evident.
3.4. INSULATION RESISTANCE TEST 1. Unplug the AC power cord and short the two prongs of the plug with a jumper wire. 2. Measure the resistance value with ohmmeter between the jumpered AC plug and each exposed metal cabinet part, such as screw threads, etc. Note: Some exposed parts may be isolated from the chassis by design.

- Frame rate (frames per second,‘‘fps’’)may vary depending on the image being viewed by the camera, brightness, and other environment conditions, as well as network conditions such as distance between the BL-WV10A and the cameras, the number of cameras connected, network traffic, wireless network conditions, etc.
- For HCM series cameras, a maximum of 30 fps in LOW quality and 12 fps in HIGH quality is possible. - Network speed may decrease while the BL-WV10A is turned on and connected to cameras. - The display size and brightness of the Monitoring Screen can be adjusted.

9.2. DSP BLOCK DSP (IC203), which connects to the main CPU (IC408) through a bus, has functions of image data encoding/decoding and video output. SDRAM (IC200) is used as a video memory. The DSP produces the output of the encoded NTSC signal to the RCA connector (CN201) through the amplifier (IC202).
Page 27
9.3. SD CARD BLOCK The SD card controller (IC606) is connected to the main CPU (IC408) through a bus, is able to implement the physical layer specifications of the card, and performs read/write control for the SD card. For using the SD card, it should be inserted into the card slot (CN601).

9.4. ETHER BLOCK The transformer (T701) insulates the inside and the outside of the set. The 4 port switch (IC703) has the switching HUB function in 10/100BASE-T specification, and perform data sending and receiving in Ethernet specification. The Ether controller (IC700), which connects to the main CPU (IC408) through the PCI bus, converts the data from Ethernet specification to PCI bus specification.

The output voltage DC12V of the AC adaptor is supplied to the TV adaptor through the DC jack (CN1000), and converted to about 3.3V and 1.5V by DC/DC converter (IC1000). And then 3.3V is converted to about 2.5V by the regulator (IC1001). 9.6.

After that, it is sent from the antenna via the diversity switch (IC851) through several kinds of processing such as an impedance conversion, a level adjustment, a cut in unnecessary frequency components. The RF signal amplified in the current amplification IC (IC852) is feedbacked through level detection.
