The CAT5 video connection function is for transmitting the analog RGB video signal of the computer and the control signal of the monitor over a long distance using CAT5 cables. The computer can control the monitor via the supplied CAT5 Tx BOX.

CAUTION:

Never connect network devices (such as a hub and a computer for LAN) to the CAT5 Tx BOX and the IN and OUT connectors of the monitor. If they are connected, the network devices themselves, CAT5 Tx BOX, and monitor may be damaged.

1. Installation of the USB driver for CAT5 serial communication control

To connect the computer and the CAT5 Tx BOX via USB interface, it is necessary to install the USB driver to the computer from the CD-ROM supplied with the monitor.

(When connecting the computer and the CAT5 Tx BOX via RS-232C interface, you don’t have to install the USB driver.)
