Setup and Installation 

 

4  Setup and Installation 

The section describes how to setup and install the 

Cobra TWA

. In general, the 

connection and setup procedure at both transmitter and receiver ends is as 

follows: 
At the transmitter end: 

1.  Connect the source video to the 

Cobra

 Series transmitter video input port, 

which is an HD15 connector labeled VIDEO. Adapter cables may be 

necessary if using component, s-video, or composite signals. 

2.  Make your audio connections via the 1/8” (3.5 mm) AUDIO connector. 
3.  Connect the CAT5 cable to the rear of the transmitter. 
4.  Apply power on the transmitter. The LED should light. 
5.  When the transmitter has been tested and is functioning normally, 

complete installation into a US style wall box or low voltage J-Box. 

At the receiver end (refer to the receiver user guide): 

1.  Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT HD15 connector to the display unit. 
2.  Connect a  1/8” (3.5 mm) audio cable to the AUDIO OUTPUT connection. 
3.  Connect the CAT5 cable to the UTP connection. 
4.  Apply power. The LED should light and video should appear on the display 

(make sure display is powered ON). 

5.  To adjust video levels see the appropriate section in receiver user manual. 

With regard to connecting the cables: 

 

We recommend mounting and connecting all cabling to the 

Cobra TWA

 

components before applying power. 

 

Be sure that the CAT5 cable you intend to use has been tested to comply 

with the T568B wiring specification (see Appendix A).
