RC-76R/RC-78R - Getting Started 

 

Getting Started 

We recommend that you: 

 

Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging 

materials for possible future shipment 

 

Review the contents of this user manual 

 

Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables  

 

 

 

Go t

http://www.kramerelectronics.com

 to check for up-to-date 

user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware 

upgrades are available (where appropriate). 

2.1 

Achieving the Best Performance 

To achieve the best performance: 

 

Use only good quality connection cables to avoid interference, deterioration 

in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often 

associated with low quality cables) 

 

Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils 

 

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely 

influence signal quality  

 

Position your Kramer 

RC-76R/RC-78R 

away from moisture, excessive 

sunlight and dust 

 

 

 

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be 

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.
