CAT5 MULTI VGA SYSTEM

Appendix E. Daisy Chain Termination
The Cat5 Multi VGA System receiver units with a UTP output can be daisy chained
along a single cat5. This applies to the AC1006A-R3, AC1015A-R2.
When daisy chaining, it is important to ensure units have proper termination at
the end, but no termination in the middle units. This has no affect on the video
signals, but will affect the serial signals.
Note that Serial is on-way simplex in this mode. See Appendix F on the
different serial modes.
Below show how to enable/disable the termination on the various receivers.
To enable/disable termination on the AC1006A-R3 and AC1015A-R2, the
external TERM switch is used. To enable termination at the end of a daisy
chain, set the TERM switch to ON. Set switch to OFF when units are in the
middle of the daisy chain. See figure below:
