PE1004CF

CAT-5 RECEIVER CARD FOR PIONEER PLASMA EXPANSION

The PE1004CF CAT-5 Receiver Card is designed to receive RGBHV/YPbPr video and audio signals over twisted pair (CAT-5) type cable. The encoded CAT-5 signals are Altinex Standard Audio+ Video signals from a compatible transmitter such as the Altinex DA1930CT. The PE1004CF installs directly into the plasma monitor and converts the signals into Pioneer compatible inputs.

The PE1004CF has three twisted pair audio+video inputs and one RGBHV input with an accompanying stereo audio input. Additionally, the PE1004CF provides a buffered audio and video local output and a CAT-5 distribution output. Any one of the four inputs may be selected at a time. The PE1004CF is compatible with video resolutions VGA through UXGA.

The unit offers hardware and software video equalization for transmission lengths up to 400 feet. The video equalization works in conjunction with the video equalization on the transmitter and the quality of CAT-5 cable.

Audio transmitted over the CAT-5 cable is decoded and then output on the audio output jack, as well as distributed on the CAT-5 output. The audio output follows the selected video input line.

The plasma monitor’s internal controls allow selection of the PE1004CF default inputs, or the PE1004CF input to the monitor may be controlled via standard RS-232 communication. Available commands allow input selection to any of the three expansion inputs.

The HelpInside™ feature allows programmers to have access to command structures and control of the PE1004CF from any terminal using the [HELP] command. In conjunction with Altinex’s unique

command structure, HelpInside™ provides easier-than-ever control of the PE1004CF CAT-5 Receiver with simple keyboard commands. No typing of long keyboard strings is necessary.
