•Input Power: External power supply provided, 110-240V AC, 50-60 Hz, 0.9 A

Modes of Operation

The HD View 8TM can be configured for two different modes of operation.

1)75 Ohm termination mode for stand alone distribution applications or as the terminating unit at the end of a “daisy-chain” of HD View 8TM units. This is the factory default mode of operation.

2)High Impedance Loop through mode for “daisy-chaining”. This mode must always be used when connecting to an additional HD View 8TM unit.

Product Hookup

After unpacking the unit make sure to make all connections before plugging in the power adapter.

The HD View 8TM will receive virtually any RGBHV signal from a HDTV multimedia or comput- er source and distribute to VGA based monitors. A typical hookup will consist of a “source” device which should be hooked up to the DB15 input. Formats accepted include all SD and HD formats: 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i/540p and VESA-based PC formats from 640x480 to 1600x1200 with refresh rates 50 Hz to 80 Hz. After hooking up the “Source” device to the marked input connector, the HD View 8TM will distribute this source up to 8 monitors that are hooked up to the output DB15 connectors. If you need to distribute the “source” to more than 8 monitors, you can “daisy-chain” the HD View 8TM to another HD View 8TM by using the High Impedance loop through mode of operation. When using a daisy chain of HD View 8TMs, you need to connect the loop-through DB15 connector on the first unit to the DB-15 input connector of the next unit in the chain. Use also need to set the mode of operation as noted in the next paragraph of this manual.
