Installation Procedure
The VoyagerUTP consists of a Local and a Remote Unit interconnected by a single structured cable
that carries all the necessary signals. The Local unit is connected to the PCs keyboard, VGA ports
and PS/2 mouse. The keyboard, monitor and mouse are connected directly to the Remote Unit. The
Remote Unit is powered by an AC power supply (included) and the PC powers the Local Unit via the
keyboard connection. A variable length of Cat5 cable is used to connect the local unit to the remote
unit.
Under no circumstances should your Voyager ever be connected to a live network cable.
We recommend that the complete system be tested in one room before permanent
installation. If a long interconnect cable is not available, use a patch lead to test basic unit
operation with your PC.
Step 1: Setting the Cable Length Jumpers
The Remote Unit contains video equalization circuitry which compensates for loss in image quality
experienced when driving over long cables.
To set the correct level of equalization there are three jumpers on the circuit board used to select an
adjustment range appropriate to the cable length (these only need to be set once), and two rotary
controls on the front panel to precisely alter the compensation level and so ‘tune in’ the image for the
cable length used.
The three cable length jumpers should be set as follows:
Cable Length
(Meters) Remote Unit
Jumper Position
0 - 100 (0 - 330 ft) No Jumpers
(Default)
100-200 (330 - 650 ft)
A
200-300 (650-1000 ft)
B
(Orientation: RJ45 towards you)
Figure 3. Cable Length Jumper Setting.
Figure 2 shows where the jumpers are located on the Remote Unit PCB. If you are unsure about
opening the case and setting the jumpers, please consult a technician or call for technical support.
All three jumpers must be set to the same position.
If you are conducting a test in one room before final installation, set the jumpers as appropriate for
the test cable length.
