Troubleshooting

“No Picture or Sound.”

1.Make certain the BVD-20, BVH-20 and BVR-20 both show power lights.

2.Verify that the RJ-45 termination on both ends of the Cat-5 is correct. We all know this is easy to get wrong.

3.Verify that the Signal Present LEDs are lit on the BVR-20. This test requires a full color spectrum signal.

4.Make certain the Cat-5 cable run does NOT go through an Ethernet Router or hub. It is alright to run the signal through a passive patch bay.

5.Make certain display or monitor is compatible with format of choice, i.e. 480P; 1080i; etc.

“Video picture scrambled or colors incorrect”

1.Confirm that the “Y”, “PB”, and “PR” connections are correct.

2.Check the Cat-5 wire configurations

“No Power Light.”

1.Confirm that the power supply is plugged in and that the outlet has power.

“The picture on my TV is fuzzy.”

1.Adjust the Cable Compensation control on the BVD-20 / BVH-20. This compensates for the increased capacitance on longer Cat-5 cable runs and sharpens the video image.

2.Confirm the cable length. It is important to note that the BVD-20, BVH-20 and BVR-20 were designed for cabling no longer than 1000’ for standard component video or 300’ for a High Definition signal.
