2 Important Notes
The transmitter corresponds to all required directives
of the EU and is therefore marked with
Never operate the transmitter in places where it is
subjected to very high or very low temperatures
(admissible ambient temperature range -10 °C to
+55 °C).
Never use aggressive cleansing agents or chemi-
cals for cleaning the housing.
No guarantee claims for the transmitter and no lia-
bility for any resulting personal damage or material
damage will be accepted if the transmitter is used
for other purposes than originally intended, if it is
not correctly installed or operated or not repaired in
an expert way.
If the transmitter is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling plant
for a disposal which is not harmful to the
environment.
3 Applications
In combination with a 2.4 GHz receiver of the
MONACOR "AV-3...R" series, the transmitter AV-3030
TX serves for wireless audio and video transmission.
For setting up a wireless video surveillance system,
merely a video camera and a monitor are additionally
required. Due to its weatherproof housing (IP 54), the
transmitter is specially suited for outdoor mounting.
The transmission range largely depends on the
local conditions and the reception antenna used.
Without any obstacles between the transmitter and

.
the reception antenna, the maximum range is 500 m.
However, in buildings it is reduced to approx. 50 m by
walls and ceilings, depending on their condition. By
using an antenna with gain at the receiver, however,
the range can be increased many times over.
3.1 Conformity and Approval
Herewith, MONACOR INTERNATIONAL declare that
the transmitter AV-3030TX is in accordance with
the basic requirements and the other relevant
regulations of the directive 1995/5/EC. The declara-
tion of conformity can be found in the Internet
via the MONACOR INTERNATIONAL home page
(www.monacor.com).
The transmitter is licence-free and generally
approved for operation in EU and EFTA countries.
Do not modify the trimming capacitors! Other-
wise the guarantee will expire and the approval
for the transmitter will be invalid.
4 Operation
4.1 Placing the transmitter and the receiver
Practical experience has shown that an optimum
reception is achieved when placing the units at a
height of minimum 1.5 m to 2 m above the ground.
Prior to final mounting, a trial run is recommended as
the transmission quality can be substantially changed
by displacing the units by a few centimetres only.
4.2 Mounting
1) Remove the inner part (2) from the housing first.
For this purpose, press the two latches (1) outward
so that the inner part can be pulled out.
2) Use the bracket (3) to attach the inner part to a
wall or to a pole so that the cable inlets (5) point
downward and no rain will penetrate the unit.
In case of pole mounting, use the supplied
clamp with the wing nuts and the screws according
to fig. 1.
3) After making the connections (chapter 4.3) and the
adjustments (chapter 4.4), place the housing.
4.3 Connecting units
Switch off any units prior to connecting them. Always
connect the power supply for the transmitter last.
When changing any existing connections, first dis-
connect the power supply for the transmitter and
switch off any connected units.
All connections are made via the terminal strip (8).
Connection wires with a cross section of 0.14 – 1 mm
can be used. For inserting or removing a wire, press
the corresponding orange clip. Strip the connection
wires for a length of approx. 10 mm and insert them
through one of the cable inlets (4).
4.3.1 Surveillance camera or signal source
1) Connect the video output of the camera or the
signal source via a 75 Ω coaxial cable to the termi-
nal 8 "Video" and the screening to the terminal 7
