    Part of the NetVu Connected product range the TransVu is fully network capable and supports the Internet standard TCP/IP protocol. As the TransVu is a mobile product the unit can be accessed via wireless LAN or GSM / GPRS / CDPD. Supporting upto eight video inputs, two audio channels, panic alarm handling and intelligent power handling the TransVu is a powerful transit recorder.

    It should be mounted as low as possible within the vehicle, on a secure base free from resonance and secondary vibrations. The TransVu is fixed to the mounting plate via four shock absorbing fixings. This dramatically reduces the vehicle vibrations and enables the TransVu to operate in harsh shock environments.
  • Page 5 Care in feeding cables Ensure the cables feeding the multipole plug are clamped to avoid any vibration being transmitted along them to the unit. Cable clamp posts are provided on the baseplate. The two clamps (highlighted) must be used to prevent the cable vibrating loose. 350mm (13”) 380mm...
  • Page 6 The baseplate should be mounted horizontally. Ensure the correct orientation of the TransVu once it is mounted on the baseplate. The Transvu multipole socket should face the rear of the vehicle, at the top of the base plate, and the cable clamp should be on the right hand side.

  • Page 9 Fitting the TransVu to the baseplate The Transvu multipole socket should face the rear of the vehicle, at the top of the base plate, with the cable clamp on the right hand side. Note: The cable clamp is provided to reduce vehicle vibration being transmitted from the cable loom through to the TransVu.
