Preparation for Installation
•
Locations should be chosen for the monitors that also have space to connect the Remote and Local Units
within the distance provided by the cables. If extension cables are needed, contact NTI for the cables
required.
•
The CAT5 cables must be run to the locations where the Remote and Local Units will be connected. Be
careful to route the cables away from any sources of magnetic fields or electrical interference that might
reduce the quality of the video signal (i.e. AC motors, welding equipment, etc.).
NOTE
: If CAT5 cable is
already installed in the wall and there are RJ45 wall outlets, it will be necessary to obtain male-to-male
straight through connection cables long enough to reach from the wall outlets to the connection locations of
the Remote and Local Units.
•
A properly grounded, polarized, and preferably surge-protected 120V or 240V electrical outlet (depending
on the AC adapter being used) must be installed close enough to the connection location of the Remote
Unit and monitors to plug them into.
•
All cables should be installed in such a way that they do not cause stress on their connections to the
equipment. Extended lengths of cable hanging from a connection may interfere with the quality of that
connection. Secure cables as needed to minimize this.
•
Properly shut down and disconnect the power from the CPU and monitor to be separated. If other
equipment is involved whose connections are being interrupted, be sure to refer to the instruction manuals
for that equipment for proper disconnection and re-connection procedures before proceeding.
