MTP 15HD RS Series • Setup Guide
This guide provides instructions for setting up and operating any of the Extron MTP 15HD RS transmitters and receivers.

Pre-Installation — RS-232 DIP Switch

The RS-232 circuits of the receiver are factory-set to be one-way, transmitter to receiver.
If the system has only one receiver, the BI-232 DIP switch on the front panel of the receiver
can be set for two-way communication as explained in step 5 of “Installation”.

Installation

1. Turn off all MTPs and devices.
Turn the input and output devices off and unplug their power cords. Verify that all MTPs

are disconnected from power sources before proceeding.

2. Connect the transmitter inputs.
• Connect a VGA video source to the Input connector (b).
• Connect a VGA monitor to the Monitor connector (c).
• Connect an RS-232 control device into the RS-232 connector (d).
Wire the connector as shown in gure 2.
3. Terminate and connect TP cables between units.
• Connect a TP cable between the Output connector (f) of the transmitter and the Input
connector (g) of the receiver. Terminate the cable identically with either standard as shown
in gure 3.
• For daisy-chaining, connect up to eight receivers using TP cables between the Buffered
Output connector (h) of a receiver and the Input connector (g) of a
daisy-chained receiver.
4. Connect the receiver outputs.
• Connect a VGA display to the Output connector (i).
• Connect an RS-232 control device into the RS-232 connector (j).
Wire the RS-232 connector as shown in gure 2.
5. Configure the receiver DIP switches.
See figure 4 for DIP switch (located on the front panel of the receiver) layout and settings.
• H Sync + and V Sync + switches — Set these switches On (up) for positive sync
or Off (down) for negative sync.
• S-Video switch — Set this switch ON (up) to output chroma on pin 3 and luma on pin 2.
Set this switch OFF (down) to output chroma on pin 1 and luma on pin 2.
• End Unit switch — Set this switch On (up) if either of the following is true:
• The receiver being congured is the only receiver connected to the transmitter.
• The receiver being congured is the last receiver in a daisy-chained system.
NOTE: Set the End Unit switch Off (down) on the receiver being
congured if there are one or more receivers connected to the
Buffered Output RJ-45 connector.
• BI-232 switch — Set this switch ON (up) for bidirectional communication or
OFF (down) for unidirectional communication.
6. Terminate the power cable and ground the unit.
ATTENTION: See “Power Supply Wiring” in the user guide before wiring.
Wire the 2-pole captive screw connectors as shown in gure 5. Plug them into the Power
connectors (a) of the MTPs. The LED indicator on each MTP should be on when receiving power.
