SPECIAL APPLICATION

INSTALLING YOUR DS801-111 6

Step 1. Determine the best location for the DS801-111. Where possible, locate the TP Transmitter as close to the video source as possible and the DS801-111as close to the receiving component as feasible.

Step 2. Apply power to the 2-pin terminal block on

the rear of the DS801-111.The Power/Signal Present LED should be on and red.

Step 3. Connect the receiving display to the output of the DS801-111using a high-quality video cable.

Step 4. Connect the audio amplifier or speakers to the audio jack on the DS801-111.

Step 5. Run a UTP-type (CAT-5/CAT-5e) cable from the 4TP INPUT on the DS801-111Receiver to the 4TP OUTPUT on the TP Transmitter.

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

Step 6. Connect the TP Transmitter per its installation instructions. In the case of the DS801-111, when the TP signal from the DS801-110 is applied, the Power/Signal Present LED will turn from red to green indicating a signal is present.

Step 7. The units are now operational.

OPERATION 7

The DS801-111requires only one adjustment to be made for optimal performance. The adjustment is video equalization for long cable lengths.

7.1 VIDEO EQUALIZATION

Video equalization is provided to fine-tune the displayed image on the remote display. Typically, for short cable runs the equalization will be set to near minimum.

Start by setting the equalization to minimum on both units. Adjust the equalization on the receiver first. This adjustment should at least allow the receiving display to receive an image. Then use the equalization on both units to fine-tune the image for optimal quality.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 8

We have carefully tested and have found no problems in the supplied DS801-111.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.
