screws on the sides, closest to the rear of the unit. (See Below) Only one screw per side should be removed.
Use the same screw to attach the bracket with the fl ange facing away from the side and parallel to the front of the BC-0103-10
metal case. The fl ange has two holes. For desktop use, apply the supplied rubber pads.
3. Connect required cables for signal input and output.
Please note that power must be applied to the BC-0103-10 for the SDI Output to be activated. All BNC connectors should be
rated for 75
Ω.
3. Plug the V-PS6-1.2A power supply into the A.C. source
4. Attach twist lock power connection from V-PS6-1.2A power supply to the back of the unit.
