This section contains figures showing connections with the specific CAT5 Multi
VGA System models. In general, however, the connection and setup procedure at
both transmitter and receiver ends is as follows (see sections 3.1.2, 3.1.3 for
typical connections and section 3.3 for typical applications):
At the transmitter end:
1. Connect the source video to the CAT5 Multi VGA System transmitter video
input port, which is an HD15 connector labeled SOURCE IN.
2. If desired, attach a local monitor via the local monitor port to LOCAL OUT.
3. Make your serial connections using a DB9 cable.
4. Connect the CAT5 cable to the transmitter.
5. Apply power on the transmitter. The LED should light and, if there’s a local
monitor attached, a video image should appear on the monitor’s screen.
At the receiver end:
1. Connect the VIDEO OUT HD15 connector to the display unit, and attach
any serial connections depending on the model of CAT5 Multi VGA
System (see Sections 3.1.3 for model-specific connections).
2. Make sure that the CAT5 cable connection(s) from the transmitter are secure.
3. Apply power. The LED should light and video should appear on the display
(make sure display is powered ON).
4. For video clarity, see Section 3.2 for individual receiver adjustments.
If there are any problems at either end, see
Chapter 4
