See the
table on page 4
for recommended transmission
ranges. The recommendations in the table apply equally
for a single transmitter and receiver and for a daisy
chain. For example, the maximum suggested range for
1024 x 768 video is 300 feet (90 m) with the Pre-Peak
switch off and 500 feet (150 m) with the Pre-Peak switch
on for either one transmitter and one receiver or a
transmitter and three daisy-chained receivers.
N
For daisy-chained units, the first receiver in the chain
must be at least 100 feet (30 m) from the transmitter
when the Pre-Peak switch is on.
N
For daisy-chained units, any receiver in the chain closer
than 350 feet (105 m) may experience some form of
over-peaking when the Pre-Peak switch is on.
N
If a receiver is the last receiver in a daisy chain, its End
Unit DIP Switch setting may need to be changed. See

C
The length of the exposed (stripped) portion of the
copper wires is important.
The ideal length is
3/16 inches (5 mm)
. Longer bare wires can short
together. Shorter bare wires are not as secure in the
direct insertion connectors and could be pulled out.
CAUTION
For unbalanced audio, connect the
sleeve(s) to the ground contact.
DO NOT
connect the sleeve(s) to the
negative (-) contacts.
