4.Be sure to include the AAP/MAAP connectors as part of the installation pretest before final installation of the interface.

For more information about interface installation, refer to the appropriate installation guide.

Pre-installation Testing

Before installing the interface into the wall, furniture, or floor box, test the system as follows to verify the connections and settings are correct.

1. Apply power to the interface. The power/signal LED on the interface should light to indicate the interface is receiving power.

2. Check all connectors and controls to make sure they are functioning properly.

Troubleshooting

If the power/signal LED does not light or an installation component does not function properly, first check the wiring at both the interface and the power supply, and then ensure the power supply is connected to a power source.

If the image does not appear or there is no sound

1.Make sure that all the devices are powered on.

2.Ensure the connectors are wired correctly at both ends of the cables. Audio cables must be wired for an unbalanced stereo input signal and for a balanced or an unbalanced stereo output signal.

3.If input is from a laptop computer and no picture appears, use a laptop breakout cable for the input connection. Check the computer’s user’s guide or contact Extron to determine if special commands are required to output video to the external video port. Also, many laptops’ screens shut off after the external video port is activated.

4.Call the Extron S3 Sales and Technical Support Hotline if the image still does not appear or there is no sound.

If the image is not displayed correctly

1.If the picture is too bright or dark, or if the edges of the image seem to exceed their boundaries, or if thin lines and sharp edges look thick and fuzzy, change the gain setting.
