Surveillance Cameras
Surveillance Cameras
tecLAN, iLAN, and iSAT models are configured to distribute your own televi-
sion channels through out your home. If you read the previous section on
distributing video you now have an idea on how to create your own televi-
sion channel in your home. UStec offers surveillance cameras that are cam-
eras with integrated modulators.
UStec currently carries an in-wall camera that is available in both black and
white and color versions. In addition there is a outdoor floodlight style cam-
era that is available in both black and white and color. This version also offers
audio.
All that is required to wire for one of these cameras is one RG6 coaxial cable.
These cameras receive their power over the coax cable and send the modu-
lated camera feed back to the UStec tecCenter for distribution through out
the home.
These cameras are perfect as surveillance for the front and rear doors, garage
areas, backyards. etc. Use one to watch the pool, use one with audio as a baby
or child’s play room monitor. The cameras are an easy way to add piece of
mind.
A camera is typically sold with the CX-CM4 camera power module. More
details on this hardware as well as camera hardware is available in the mod-
ules section later in this guide.

Using the example in the previous section, lets add the modulated camera to
the mix.
Modulated signals need at least one channel of separation. In the distributing
modulators section we shared a DVD throughout the home on channel 120.
Lets share the camera then on channel 122. (1 channel spacing)
The camera should be installed by a certified UStec dealer. The camera’s chan-
nels are adjusted by pushing a series of dip switches on. For channel 122 we
will turn on dip switches 80, 40 and 2. (80+40+2=122). For more detailed
technical information please see the technical section on the UStec website.
The diagram below shows a 4 cameras setup on channels 118, 120, 122, and
124.

Infrared Remote Controls
Infrared Remote Controls
When a whole home IR remote control system is not installed or warranted, a
UStec remote control system (IR-KIT) is a easy way to control your IR enabled
devices from another room.
Using the example of the modulated DVD system in the distributing video
section, you want to not only view the DVD player on channel 120, but want
to be able to control it from the master bedroom. An IR remote control sys-
tem would allow for complete control of the DVD player via the master bed-
room.
The system is broken down into two parts. The first part is the receiver system
that receives the invisible pulses of light from the remote control. This
receiver system converts light energy into electrical energy that we can trans-
port over the UStec structured wiring system.
The second part of the system is the emitter system. This converts the electri-
cal energy back into the light pulses your equipment (DVD) expects to see. A
small emitter is affixed to the IR window on your hardware (DVD in this
example).
Below is an image of both parts.

NOTE:
The IR system runs on the brown pair (Line 4).
It can NOT co-exist if there is already a telephone
number on that line.
(KSU systems typically do not apply)
*The tecFlex line chooser is only required if telephone line access is desired at the same location as the
IR Kit.

Audio Distribution
Audio Distribution
UStec’s AU-2X4 in conjunction with third party speaker wires, speakers and
impedance matching volume controls allows for the distribution of whole
house audio.
The AU-2X4 allows for the distribution of one A/V receiver/amplifier to at
least seven different room locations. Wires from the A/V receiver/amplifier
input into the AU-2X4 and are sent out to various rooms speaker controls.
From there they are wired to your speakers.
The AU-2X4 can also be configured for two zones by removing the shorting
jumper between the top and bottom rows of connectors. This allows for two
separate receiver sources out to at least three rooms each.
This unit works by sending the left and right amplified audio outputs from an
amplifier or integrated amplifier/receiver to the first connection point on the
AU-2X4. The are wired to L+, L- & R+, R-.
The AU-2X4 is now active and each corresponding room can be connected.
The amplified left and right audio outputs travel to the room where they con-
nect with an impedance matching volume control. This device matches the
impedance of the speakers to that of the amplifier or integrated amplifier/
receiver that is driving the system.
The speakers in the room are then connected to the impedance matching vol-
ume control.
The following two illustrations demonstrate these connections.
