Configuring a TP-114 XGA/HD Line Transmitter – DA System

1.On the TP-114, connect the XGA/HD source (for example, a computer graphics/HD source) to the XGA IN 15-pin HD connector, and connect the line output RJ-45 connector1:

ƒOUT 1 connector to the LINE IN RJ-45 connector on the first

TP-120

ƒOUT 2 connector to the LINE IN RJ-45 connector on the second

TP-120

ƒOUT 3 connector to the LINE IN RJ-45 connector on the third

TP-120

ƒOUT 4 connector to the LINE IN RJ-45 connector on the fourth

TP-120

2.On the four TP-120units, connect the:

ƒXGA OUT 15-pin HD connector of the first TP-120unit to the XGA/HD acceptor (for example, display 1)

ƒXGA OUT 15-pin HD connector of the second TP-120unit to the XGA/HD acceptor (for example, display 2)

ƒXGA OUT 15-pin HD connector of the third TP-120unit to the XGA/HD acceptor (for example, display 3)

ƒXGA OUT 15-pin HD connector of the fourth TP-120unit to the XGA/HD acceptor (for example, display 4)

3.On each Kramer TOOL, connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the adapter to the mains electricity.

The signal from the XGA source is transmitted via the CAT 5 cables, decoded and converted at the each of the XGA OUT 15-pin HD connectors to the XGA acceptors.

4.On the TP-120units, if necessary:

ƒSet the H SYNC and V SYNC switches2 on the underside

ƒAdjust3 the video output signal level and/or cable compensation equalization level

5.On the TP-114, if necessary, set the VS and HS switches4 on the underside

1 Via UTP cabling (with a range of more than 300ft (>100m)). For details of how to wire a CAT 5 LINE IN/LINE OUT RJ-45 connector, see section 5.1

2 By default, both switches are set down (for negative V SYNC and H SYNC polarity)

3 Use a screwdriver to carefully rotate the trimmer, adjusting the appropriate level

4 By default, both switches are set down (to NORMAL) to retain the VS and HS polarity
