Installing Your DS801-201/202, Operation

SPECIAL APPLICATION

INSTALLING YOUR DS801-201/202

Step 1. Determine the best location for the DS801-201/202and TP Receiver. Where possible, locate the DS801-201/202as close to the video source as possible and the receiver as close to the receiving component as feasible.

Step 2. Apply power to the 2-pin terminal block on the rear of the DS801-201/202.

NOTE: The power supply should provide 9 VDC and be capable of supplying 500 mA.

Step 3. The Power LED should be on and red.

Step 4. Connect the video and audio sources to the input of the DS801-201/202using high quality cables.

Step 5. The Power LED should change from red to green indicating a signal is present.

Step 6. Connect a local monitor and speakers to the local outputs on the DS801-201/202. These connections are not required for proper operation of the transmitter, but are provided for convenience.

Step 7. Run a UTP-type (CAT-5/CAT-5e) cable from the 4TP OUTPUT on the rear of the DS801-201/202Transmitter to the 4TP INPUT on the TP Receiver.

NOTE: Ensure good signal transmission by routing the cable so as to avoid any sharp angles, creases, or bends.

Step 8. Connect the TP Receiver per its installation instructions. In the case of the DS801-111, when the TP signal from the DS801-201/202is applied, the Power LED will turn from red to green.

Step 9. Connect the receiver video and audio outputs to their respective display and amplifying devices.

Step 10. The units are now operational.

OPERATION

The DS801-201/202requires no adjustments for normal operation. Once connected and the equalization set, the DS801-201/202will work trouble-free with no user intervention. Depending on the TP receiver, cable lengths between units should be 400 ft (122 m) or less.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

We have carefully tested and have found no problems in the supplied DS801-201/202.However, we would like to offer suggestions for the following:

8.1 NO DISPLAY

Cause 1:	The source has a problem.
Solution:	Check the source and make sure
	there is a signal present and all
	source connections are correct. If
	the source is working and there is
	still no display, see Cause 2.
Cause 2:	The path has a problem.
Solution:	Connect the transmitter directly to
	the receiver using a short UTP
	patch cable. If the image is good,
	there is a problem with the cable.
	Otherwise, see Cause 3.
Cause 3:	Cable connections are incorrect.
Solution:	Make sure that cables are properly
	connected. Also, make sure that the
	continuity and wiring are good. If
	there is still no display present, see
	Cause 4.
Cause 4:	Video equalization required.
Solution:	Adjust the VIDEO EQUALIZATION
	on the transmitter. Long cable runs
	may require adjustments to near
	maximum.
	In general, cable runs less than 50 ft
	(15 m) require little or no video
	equalization and should be set to
	minimum. Cable runs up to 400 ft
	(122 m) will require near maximum
	equalization on the receiver.
