INSTALLATION
The CVDA-2 is a light weight unit able to be mounted at any location. After the unit has
been placed, you can connect the power.
CONNECTING THE POWER
WARNING! The DC power cannot be from the same supply as the DC camera
or video source. It must be from an isolated source.
For the CVDA-2, Hum in a video picture can be caused by several things:
A) Ground loop
B) Camera
C) Power supply failure
D) Induced hum due to proximity of ac power feeds.
The CVDA-2 is designed to only reduce or eliminate ground loop hum
between two points and will have minimal to no effect on the other
types of distortion. If you have any splices or bare cables that may
be touching metal between the camera and the CVDA-2, isolate it with
tape so that it does not touch any other metal items.
Ground loops usually become visible when several cameras are connected together at a
switcher or a quad screen splitter. The problem also occurs when a camera is located in a
different “ground” plane than the monitor is located in. The hum or interference is caused by
the differences in ground voltages from each device mixing together. By using the CVDA-2
to isolate the signal and the ground, the problem is resolved. The CVDA-2 corrects the
ground-loop problem on the input side of a run, this still leaves a potential for a
ground-loop to occur between the 2 locations on the output side of the VDA. If this
problem should occur on one or both outputs simply add a GLB-ll to one of the 2
outputs.

SIGNAL ADJUSTMENTS
On the CVDA-2 there are openings on the side of the unit for the gain and high frequency
controls. Insert a small straight edge screwdriver to adjust. Connect a signal to the video
“in” of the unit. With an oscilloscope connected to the output and the output cable
terminated in 75 ohms, adjust the gain control so that the sync signal is 280mv or if a 1VPP
test signal is available, adjust the gain control for an overall level of 1VPP at the end of the
cable.
On the CVDA-2, the High Frequency control is adjusted for the sharpest picture desired.

Control Locations
PLACEMENT IN SYSTEM
The CVDA-2 should be placed as near the end of a system as possible for ground loop
protection.
1) Disconnect the feed from the camera at the end by the monitor, switcher or VCR.
Connect the camera feed to CVDA-2 input. Connect one output to your monitor,
switcher or VCR. and verify that the hum is reduced or eliminated.
2) Adjust the video gain for the desired level
3) Adjust the High Frequency control for the sharpest possible picture.

Aligning The CVDA-2 Using The VST-1000
P.O. Box 749 Peekskill, NY 10566 Tel: (845) 737-7009 Fax: (845) 737-0426 Web: www.compuvideosystems.com
To align the CVDA-2 with out using an oscilliscope use the VST-1000, place the VST-1000
immediately after the CVDA-2. Using the gain or level adjustments on the CVDA-2 to match
the Gain / Level indicator box color to that of the Gain / Level xed reference bar box next to
it. Once that has been done do the same thing to the HF or High Frequency control box. If
the Variable indicator can not be turned “down” to match the reference box that is ok.
