REMOTE UNIT CONFIGURATION & OPERATION

If you are at the top end of a cable range, for example, 80m (250ft), and you are using a high screen resolution (1024x768 or higher), you may achieve better quality video compensation by selecting the next cable length range using the cable length jumpers (see page 19). Use the Brightness control to adjust the brightness of the overall picture. After adjusting this control, you may need to re-adjust the Focus control.

4.If you are using a flat panel monitor at the remote console, carry out auto- adjustment as described in the monitor’s documentation. Sometimes manual adjustment of clock and/or phase is also required for optimum results and minimization of jitter.
