Connect your HDMI or DVI display (such as a LCD or plasma HDTV) to the receiving unit Z57BD2C [RX ]. 

4.

 

Connect the IR receiver and blaster to the receiving unit Z57BD2C [RX ], and typically make the IR receiver directly 
point to the user. 

5.

 

Connect two CAT5e/6 cables between the transmitting and receiving units via A/V SIGNAL and CTRL CHANNEL ports 
respectively. 

6.

 

Make sure your Cat-5/5e/6 cables are tightly connected and not loose.

If you see flickering or blinking image on the display, try to adjust the rotary control switch to improve the 
cable skew. 0 stands for the strongest HDMI™ signal level for longest possible transmission length while 7 
stands for the weakest HDMI™ signal level for short transmission length. Try adjusting the signal level from 7 
to 0 to find the optimal setting for the HDMI™ over CAT5 transmission.
