To install the Receiver:
4a.
Connect the Receiver to the HDMI display equipment with a HDMI compliant
cable.
4b.
Connect the Receiver to as many as four (4) USB 2.0 peripherals with standard
USB 2.0 cables. Power is limited to 0.7A for the four (4) ports. An externally
powered four (4) port USB 2.0 hub may allow for expansion, or to support higher
power levels than 0.7A total.
4c.
Connect the Cat 5e/6 cable coming from the Transmitter to the RJ45 LINK
connector on the Receiver.
5.
Connect the 5 VDC power supply to the Receiver first, and then plug the power
supply into an AC power outlet. Next connect the 5 VDC power supply to the
Transmitter, and then plug the power supply into an AC power outlet. If power is
present, the power LED on the Transmitter and Receiver will be ON.
6.
Power the HDMI equipment and verify the image quality.
7.
This product supports unidirectional IR control. If infrared remote control is
needed to control the Source equipment from the Display, connect the IR Sensor
and/or IR Emitter to the 3.5mm Jacks of the Transmitter and Receiver.
8.
Position the IR Sensor so that it is directed to the hand-held remote control. For a
clear IR signal reception, aim the hand-held remote control at the top of the IR
Sensor enclosure.
9.
Position the IR Emitter as close as possible to the source’s IR Sensor (i.e. DVD
player). For a clear IR signal reception, the IR Emitter can be glued on the source’s
IR Sensor. The IR Emitter’s signal is transmitted from the side of the enclosure.
10.
The following diagram shows the final configuration.
(Note: IR sensor and emitter not shown in above diagram.)
