Connection of CatX units to Cat5/6 UTP cable
Before connecting any Cat5/6 UTP cable to the input/output of your
AV
receiver unit please refer to the
‘
termination of UTP cable
’ section of this manual.
Connecting any CatX transmitter or receiver to incorrectly terminated cable will damage the unit. Any
unit damaged in this way is not covered by the manufacturers’ warranty.
Distance adjustment (CatX AV Rx2 and CatXQ AV Rx2 units)
There is a tune adjustment control on the front panel of your
AV
receiver. You should use this control to
optimise the quality of the display on your VGA output device.
When tuning multiple
AV
receivers that are connected in series, tune the closest receiver to the
transmitter first, followed by each additional receiver in sequence.
Turn the
Tune
control anti-clockwise and then slowly turn t clockwise until a sharp clear image is
displayed.
Once this adjustment has been made, no further adjustment is required unless the length of cat5/6
cable attached to the receiver RJ45 input is altered.
Skew correction (CatXQ AV Rx2 only)
In addition to the distance adjustment control, the
CatXQ AV Rx2
receiver
also includes ‘
S
’ and ‘
Q
’ skew
correction controls.
The ‘
S
’ and ‘
Q
’ ‘Skew’ correction controls can be adjusted by hand or using a small flat blade screwdriver.
Refer to the ‘
Skew correction system user guide
’ on how to use these controls to obtain a skew free
image.
