Installation and Operation, cont’d
Installation Overview
To install and set up a TP receiver and the associated TP transmitter(s) for operation, perform the following steps:
1Disconnect power from all of the equipment, including the video source(s) (such as computers or DVD players), the transmitter, the receiver, and the output display(s).
2For component,
3TP R BNC AV and TP R AV only — If desired, configure the audio jumpers to make the receiver compatible with unmodified TP transmitters. See Audio jumpers in this chapter.
The TP R BNC AV and TP R AV are redesigned (modified) receivers. The audio jumpers configure the audio portion of the composite video TP link to work with either similarly redesigned TP T 15HD AV and TP T AV transmitters or with older, unmodified transmitters. Redesigned receivers and transmitters have an identifying label.
4Mount the receiver in a rack (all except TP R AV) (the TP R 15HD A can be mounted in a standard rack or in a VersaTools rack), under a desk or podium, in a desk or table (all except TP R 15HD A), or on a projector bracket. See Mounting the receiver in this chapter.
5Connect the cable(s) between the TP transmitter(s) and the receiver. See Transmitted signal cabling in this chapter and refer to the TP Transmitters Family User’s Manual, part
6Connect the output cables. See Output cabling in this chapter.
7Configure the TP transmitter(s). Refer to the TP Transmitters Family User’s Manual, part
8Connect power cords to the TP receiver, the TP transmitter, and turn on the video source(s) and the output display(s).
All TP transmitters include a 15V external power supply. The transmitters also receive power from the associated Extron TP receiver(s) (with the exception of the TP R 15HD A) via the TP cable. Extron recommends using the local power supply; however, the power supply may not be necessary in some applications. Use the following guidelines:
•The TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, and
TP T BNC may not require a local power supply for cable lengths of 300 feet or less.
•The TP T AV may not require a local power supply for cable lengths of 800 feet or less.
•The TP T BNC DA4 and any transmitter connected to a TP R 15HD A always require the local power supply.
If problems are encountered, use the local power supply.
9Adjust the picture controls on the transmitter(s) and the receiver. See Controls and Indicators in this chapter and refer to the TP Transmitters Family User’s Manual, part
Video jumpers
The TP R BNC A and TP R BNC AV receivers can be configured to receive component video,
The receivers are factory configured for RGB video. To receive any other type of video, reconfigure the jumpers.
