ChannelPlus Video Camera

The H721 video cameras are solid state cameras designed to fit standard single gang J-boxes. The H721 must be used with one of its companion channel injectors (H511HHR or H511BID). When used with an H511, video received from the H721 is used to create a new channel to add to existing television channels. The H721 is connected to the H511 by a single run of CAT-5 wire and does not need to be separately powered. The camera mount is weather-resistant and comes with a standard single-gang gasket. The brass cover-plate may be painted to match a house color.

Two models are available:

Model H721

Black & White, 0.3 lux, 3.6 mm lens

Model H721C

Color, 6 lux, 3.6 mm lens

Note: The H721 is not a standalone video camera

Use only with an H511 channel injector.

Installing the Camera

The H721 is designed to be mounted in a single-gang J-box using the supplied gasket.

Typical Installation

Connect the H721 camera using only one method:

1Terminate cable with a CAT-5 jack and connect to the H511 using supplied RJ45 jumper. (Also see example H628 manual).

2Wire camera or wall plate directly to the 8 position terminal block matching the CAT-5 wire colors to the colors on the terminal block. Insert wires and tighten screws.

Prepare the CAT-5 wires by stripping 1” of outer sheath and 1/8” of insulation. Insert wires into 8 position terminal block and tighten screws. Remember to wire through gasket.

Insert wire into terminal block and tighten screws. Use the color bar to match wire colors. The color bar has two rows, one for CAT-5 and one for quad wire:

-For CAT-5 wire, remove the default resistor and use all 8 wires.

-For quad wire*, leave default resistor in place and match four color wire.

*The H721/H721C was designed to work with CAT-5 wiring. Although the system will function with quad wire, CAT-5 delivers the highest quality picture. CAT-5 allows the use of an automatic line length sensor and picture compensator. Quad wire does not take advantage of this enhancement.

Push camera into J-box and attach using the two supplied screws.

Locating the Camera

The camera ‘looks’ straight out from the cover-plate. For a front door application, place the camera lens 66 inches off the ground, adjacent to the door.

Painting the Cover-Plate

The brass cover-plate may be painted to match the house color. First, remove the camera from the plate. Lightly sand the plate using 300-400 grit wet/dry paper. Use a good quality metal primer that is rated for exterior use. Before applying the primer, follow the manufacturers instructions for cleaning the plate. Standard house paints may now be used.

THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES. OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: (1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE, AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED OPERATION.

Installation requirements:

FCC classifies this product under part 15 of its rules as a “television interface device”. Systems designed using television interface devices have the following legal requirements:

1)The modulated channel signal strength may not exceed 15.56dBmV at any television. Federal Regulation 47CFR15.115(b)(1)(i).

2)If an antenna is used in the system, the modulated channel signal strength may not exceed -51dBmV at the antenna input port. Federal Regulation 47CFR15.115(c)(4).

For the Installer:

Any system you design must comply with these regulations. As the installer, you are responsible. The H721 or H721C (when used with an H511) has the necessary characteristics to comply with the above requirements as designed without additional accessories.

The H511HHR is suitable for use with an antenna or with CATV systems. The H511BID is suitable for use with CATV systems only.
