Installation and Operation
Installation Overview
This is an overview of the installation process. You will
find detailed installation instructions in this chapter.
To install and set up the RGB 138
xi
or RGB 158
xi
for
operation, follow these basic steps:
1
Turn all of the equipment off. Make sure that the
computer, the interface and the output device(s)
(projector or display monitor, and local monitor) are
all turned off and disconnected from the power
source.
2
Set internal jumpers for sync polarity and sync pulse
width. See “Setting Internal Jumpers” in this chapter.
3
Install optional adapter plates for pass-through A/V
connections. See “Installing Adapter Plates” in this
chapter.
4
Install the rubber feet for tabletop use, or install the
appropriate brackets and furniture or rack mount the
interface. See “Mounting the Interfaces” in this
chapter.
5
Attach the input (computer) and output (display,
local monitor and audio) cables. See “Cabling” in
this chapter.
6
Set the DIP and toggle switches. Use the “Front
Panels” and “Rear Panels” sections of this chapter as
a guide.
7
Connect power cords and turn on the devices in the
following order: output devices (projector, monitors,
speakers) and input device (computer).
8
The image should now appear on screen, and sound
should be audible. If not, ensure that all devices are
plugged in and receiving power. Check the cabling
and switch settings, and make adjustments as
needed.
