Cascading Receivers (Emerge EMS1000MP-R Receivers Only)

Expansion at the receiver end is made possible using the LINK OUT ports present on Emerge EMS1000MP-R receivers. Receiver cascade links are made using twisted pair cables, specified to Category 5 or higher.

NOTE: Ensure that there are no more than three cascades (transmitter or receiver cascades) between the primary transmitter and the furthest receiver in any branch.

Video Image Adjustments

As link cable lengths increase and more receivers are cascaded, color separation effects may become noticeable within displayed video images, particularly at higher resolutions. These effects are called ‘skew’ and result from differing delays on the red, green and blue color signals as they travel to the receivers. Each Emerge EMS1000MP-R receiver provides two extra adjustment dials to counter skew effects. For further information, please refer to the section Skew Compensation Adjustments within Chapter 3.
