5517 Remote Video Unit Installation

The 5517 Remote Video Unit requires 12VDC at approximately 1.5A to operate properly. This requires
that power be provided directly at the pneumatic unit to avoid the power drop associated with long wire
runs. Each 5517 is supplied with a 12VDC, 2A power supply. An optional Video Power Control Kit
(E0885), ordered separately, is used to control the relay board in each video head so the monitors, and
optionally the cameras, can be turned off when desired. For larger installations it may be desirable to
have more than one power control kit if some lanes are closed at times while other lanes are open.
Optionally Hamilton Air pneumatic units that have an E0873 I/O Control Board can use an E10036
Video Power Control Cable to control the relay board in the video head. See the note below Figure 28.
The video head will be positioned to the top right of the pneumatic unit as viewed by the customer.
Use the template shipped with the 5517 to drill holes in the top of the pneumatic unit for the bracket
and cables. (The template ensures that the video head will not stick out past the front of the
pneumatic unit where it could be damaged by a vehicle.)
Refer to Figure 26. Feed the video cables, the 2A power supply cable and the relay trigger wires
from the power control kit (or the E10036 Video Power Control Cable) from inside the pneumatic
unit through the top of the unit and through the video mounting arm. Apply a small amount of
silicone sealant to the bottom of the plate on the mounting arm (1) and attach the mounting bracket
to the pneumatic unit (2) with the supplied washers and nylon lock nuts.

Remove the screws from the back of the video head. Note that not all screws for the cover are
installed at the factory. The remaining screws are in the bag of accessories.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The LCD assembly is attached to the front of the video head enclosure
with the current version of 5517. Separate the front and back of the video head being careful not to
pull on the cables. Unplug the video and power cables from the LCD main board and set the front
aside.
Refer to Figure 27. Route the cables from the mounting arm (1) through the back of the video head
(3). Apply a small amount of silicone sealant to the plate of the mounting arm and attach the video
head to the mounting arm with screws (4) provided in the accessory bag. Two of the screws are
security type. A driver bit is included for the security screws.
Connect the monitor cable to the top left BNC connector and the camera cable to the top right BNC
connector in the video head as labeled. Connect the power supply cable and the relay trigger wires to
the relay board (see Figure 28). Slide the excess cable back through the bracket and into the
08-315 (3/6/12)
