The RS-232 portion of the twisted pair link: • Can be bidirectional in a one-r eceiver system; that is, the receiver can r eceive commands from the transmitter and pass RS-232 r esponses to the transmitter . • Supports software flow contr ol (XON, XOFF). NOTE: Hardwar e flow control is not supported. • Supports full duplex and half duplex o[...]

T ransmission Distance The maximum distance is determined by the frequency and r esolution of the signal that is input to the transmitter . The table on page 4 specifies the recommended maximum transmission distances and transmitter Pre-Peak switch positions (see item e on page 9 ) using Extron Enhanced Skew-Fr ee A V UTP cable or CA T 5, 5e, or 6[...]

d V ertical fr equency DIP switch — The first DIP switch selects the vertical frequency for the pre-pr ogrammed EDID. When switched to Off (default position), the EDID selected by the rotary positions 1 thr ough E are based on 60 Hz. When switched to On, they are based on 50 Hz. The second DIP switch, marked Spar e, is not used. NOTE: When the E[...]

j Delay (skew adjustment) control (SEQ model only) — This contr ol delays the selected red, gr een, or blue video signal by up to 62 nanoseconds. The delay is applied in incremental, 2-nanosecond steps. Rotate the contr ol counterclockwise to r educe the delay or clockwise to increase the delay . NOTES: • The control turns smoothly; it does not[...]

Power Supply W iring and Grounding Figure 7 shows how to wir e and ground the connector . A TTENTION: Potential damage to property . • Power supply voltage polarity is critical. Incorrect voltage polarity can damage the power supply and the transmitter or receiver . Identify the power cord negative lead by the ridges on the side of the cord. • [...]

A TTENTION: Potential damage to property . • This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit marked "Class 2" or "LPS", rated 12 VDC, maximum 1.0 A. Always use a power supply supplied or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all r egulatory compliance certification and may cause damage[...]

T wisted Pair Cable T ermination Figure 8 details the r ecommended termination of twisted pair cables with RJ-45 connectors in accordance with the TIA/EIA T568A or TIA/EIA T568B wiring standar ds. Y ou can use either standard with CA T 5, 5e, and 6 cable, but ensure that you use the same standar d on both ends of the cable . RJ-45 Connector Insert [...]

Skew Delay Compensation CA T 5, 5e, and 6 cable can lead to registration errors between the r ed, green, and blue video signals. Pair skew can be measured with test equipment or identified by viewing a crosshatch test pattern with a critical eye to determine if either the red, gr een, or blue video image leads (appears to the left of) the other tw[...]
