There is a potentiometer (pot) or pushbuttons on the Model URA
receiver depending on the products revision. Turning the pot CW
increases the compensation. Use a small screwdriver and starting
from fully CCW; slowly turn the pot CW until the image is perfectly
clear. Fully CCW corresponds to no compensation (recommended for
lengths of 100 ft or less), and fully CW corresponds to 1000 feet.
Newer models use pushbuttons to adjust the compensation, follow the
directions supplied with that model. Be careful not to over-
compensate the video image.
The video quality at the remote station depends on:
(1) The length of the CAT5 cable
(2) The video resolution setting
(3) The video refresh rate setting
In general, at low and mid resolutions, excellent image reproduction is
provided at up to 1000 feet. At high resolution and refresh rates
perfect image reproduction can be achieved at shorter distances (see
table 2.1 below). Using longer cables or higher resolution rates will
still produce an image, but the reproduction quality will be reduced.
