perature range 0 – 40 °C).
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth, by no means
chemicals or water.
If the unit is used for other purposes than originally

3 Applications
The colour video quad processor TVSP-42COL is
designed for application in video surveillance systems.
The unit allows the display of individual pictures or a
quad picture (display of quadrants) of up to four cam-
eras (B/W or colour in PAL or NTSC standard) and
simultaneous video recording. During reproduction of
a video recording, it is possible to display an enlarged
quadrant as frame. It is also possible to record the cur-
rent four camera signals with another video recorder
while a quad picture is reproduced by the TVSP-
42COL. In case of failure of a camera, the loss of a
video signal can be indicated by an acoustic signal.

4 Connecting the Unit

4.1 Cameras
Connect up to four cameras to the input jacks VIDEO
IN 1 ... 4 (12).
4.2 Monitor
Connect the monitor to the jack MONITOR OUT (9).
4.3 Video recorder
To record the camera pictures as quad picture,
connect the video input of the video recorder to the
10
jack QUAD OUT (10). To reproduce the recording,
connect the video output of the video recorder to the
jack VCR IN (11).

4.4 Power supply

After connecting all other units, connect a power sup-
ply unit 12 V /500 mA to the jack DC IN (13), e. g.
PS-90GS, MIDI-125, or PS-1204ST from MONACOR.
A low voltage plug 5.5/2.1 mm (outside/inside dia-
meter) is required. Observe the correct polarity: the
internal contact must be positive.
5 Operation
After connecting the unit to the power supply, a short
acoustic signal can be heard. After approx. 2 s, the
TVSP-42COL displays the quad picture of the oper-
ating mode "Normal".
During initial operation, the preprogrammed basic
settings made in the factory are effective (see table
"Presettings" in chapter 5.3). To change the settings of
the unit, please read chapter 5.2 "Changing the set-
tings of the unit".

5.1 Operating modes

5.1.1 Normal (QUAD)
The operating mode "Normal" is activated as soon as
the unit is connected to the power supply. The connect-
ed cameras are displayed as quad picture (display of
quadrants). The LED above the QUAD button (5) lights
up. If there is a camera jack without a camera connect-
ed, the respective quadrant is green and "VIDEO
LOSS" is inserted in this quadrant. However, if a
camera fails during operation, the last picture received
from this camera is "frozen" in its quadrant as still pic-
ture and "VIDEO LOSS" is also inserted. In addition, an
acoustic signal sounds for 1 minute or until any button
is pressed (= presetting, possibilities for changes see
chapter 5.2.2 "Setting menu, page 2").
By pressing any of the buttons "1" ( ) to "4" ( ),
the unit switches to the frame of the respective
camera.
Note: Operation of the unit in the operating mode "Nor-
mal" does not affect video recording. Independent of
the selected monitor display, the signal at the jack
QUAD OUT (10) is always a quad picture.
5.1.2 Automatic (AUTO)
This operating mode is selected by pressing the AUTO
button (6) and starts the automatic sequential switch-
ing according to the picture sequence selected in the
settings of the unit. Detailed information concerning
sequence settings can be found in chapter 5.2.2 "Set-
ting menu, page 2". The LED above the AUTO button
lights up together with the respective LED of the
camera picture currently displayed. Camera inputs
without valid video signal are automatically skipped.
5.1.3 Still picture (FREEZE)
For this operating mode, first use the QUAD button (5)
to switch to the quad picture. Actuate the QUAD button
once again so that the LED above the QUAD button
