MAGENTA MULTIVIEW™ SERIES
3. Setup and Installation
3.1 Cabling Considerations
• We recommend mounting and connecting all cabling to the MultiView™ Series
components before applying power.
• Make sure that the CAT5 cable you intend to use has been tested to comply
with the T568B wiring specification (See
Appendix A
).
3.2 Making the Connections
3.2.1 CONNECTIONS AND SETUP IN GENERAL
This section contains figures showing connections with the specific MultiView™ Series
models. In general, however, the connection and setup procedure at both transmitter
and receiver ends is as follows:
At the transmitter end (refer to the transmitter user guide) :
1. Connect the source video to the MultiView™ Series 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 audio/serial connections via the 1/8” (3.5mm) audio connector, phoenix ,
or DB9 serial connector (transmitter model dependent).
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 (Ensure display is powered off and disconnected from AC
power):
1. Remove the left handle on the display and then remove the top option slot blank
cover.
2. Insert the NEC 600 receiver into the NEC display slot and secure with the 2 screws
that secured the blank cover removed in step 1 and replace the handle.
3. Connect the CAT5 cable to the UTP INPUT connection.
4. Connect the AC power and turn display on (Note that the NEC display only
recognizes card slot options only from a cold start (i.e. when the AC power is first
connected and the display powered on, not in standby mode).
5. To adjust video levels see
Section 3.3
.
6. To set the SAP address for SAP serial transmission, use the two rotary knobs. See
Appendix C and reference the SAP Communication Protocol user manual.
