5 Using Your VP-6A 1:6 UXGA / Audio / +1 CAT5 Distributor
The example in Figure 3 illustrates how to output a computer graphics signal
(and audio) from a computer to up to six local monitors, as well as how to
transmit it over UTP cabling to a
TP-122
XGA / Audio Line Receiver
.
To connect the
VP-6A
and a
TP-122
, do the following:
1. Connect a computer graphics source (for example, a computer) to the
INPUT HD15F connector and to the UNBAL. AUDIO IN 3.5mm mini
jack, for example, using a Kramer C-GMA/GMA cable
1
. Press in the IN
SELECT button.
Alternatively, connect a computer graphics source to the INPUT HD15F
connector, and a balanced stereo audio source to the BAL. AUDIO
INPUT 5-pin terminal block connector, and release the IN SELECT button.
2. Connect the OUTPUT HD15F connectors to up to
2
six acceptors (for
example, Local Display 1 to Local Display 6).
3. Connect up to
2
12 stereo audio outputs
3
, that is, up to six:
Unbalanced stereo audio OUT 3.5mm mini jacks,
and
Balanced
4
stereo audio 5-pin terminal block connectors (see section 5.1)
4. Connect
5
the CAT5
RJ-45 LINE OUT connector
6
to the
LINE IN RJ-45
connector on a Kramer CAT5 receiver, such as the
TP-122
unit.
5. Connect the power cord
7
to the
VP-6A
(not illustrated in Figure 3).
6. On the
VP-6A
:
Adjust
8
the UXGA cable compensation equalization level and/or the
audio level, if required
Set the ID BIT switches 4 and 11 on the underside to ON (by sliding
them to the left). This would enable a notebook or laptop (if connected instead
of a computer) to output an UXGA signal to an external VGA monitor
1 XGA HD15M +Audio jack to XGA HD15M +Audio jack (not supplied). The complete list of Kramer cables is on our Web
site at http://www.kramerelectronics.com. Alternatively, you can connect an XGA source to the XGA INPUT HD15F
connector, and a separate audio source to the UNBAL. AUDIO IN
2 When not all outputs are required, connect only the outputs that are required and leave the other outputs unconnected
3 Note, that if the selected audio input is unbalanced, it is converted to balanced stereo audio; if the selected audio input is
balanced, it is converted to unbalanced stereo audio
4 By wiring the balanced outputs as unbalanced (see Figure 5) you can output 12 unbalanced stereo audio outputs
5 Via UTP cabling, with a range of more than 300ft (>100m): see section 5.1
6 The TP-122 (or TP-120) may be powered via this connector (instead of via the 12VDC external supply)
7 We recommend that you use only the power cord that is supplied with this machine
8 Use a screwdriver to carefully rotate the trimmer, adjusting the appropriate level
