Connecting <strong>Your</strong> <strong>Camera</strong> To A Monitor<br />

Connecting To A Television Receiver<br />

(Tv Set)<br />

If you are planning to use a VCR or similar recording device, then all you need do is plug the RCA jack to the back of such device.<br />

Most portable Tv sets don't come equiped with RCA plugs. You must purchase one of the following RFU modulators at Walmart and<br />

follow the schematics. Please note all RFU modulators will do the job. These are very inexpensive the first example cost me $10 and the<br />

second $7. The last one being small enough that it was incorporated into the project box.<br />

If you use an old tv without a threaded coaxial cable female plug, open up the PL-303 unit and using your soldering iron, remove the<br />

antenna input, then solder two wires, one to the center, the second to the flange, use a few layers of electrical tape on the soldered ends.<br />

Next connect the ends of the two wires to the antenna connections on the back of the tv.<br />

Caution not all RFU units are created equal, even when they come from the same manufacturer. Pelican 7020 has 3 conductors, the red<br />

wire is your ground, the green positive 5 volts, yellow video in. To assemble this cut off the plug (do not cut off the ferrite) and strip off<br />

the insulation, exposing the conductors. drill a hole in your control unit and slip the wire through. secure the cable with a wire tie. solder<br />

the output from the adapter to the red and green wires, next solder the video cable to the yellow conductor. Don't forget to insulate all<br />

solder connections with heat shrink tubing. The powering options above apply to this model.<br />
