3.3 INSTALLING THE CAT 5 RECEIVER(S)
• Plug the Cat 5 cables into the 1180R or 1180RD.
• Adjust the cable length compensation if the cable between the transmitter and
receiver is over 100 feet long. Set the compensation at 1 for cables 100-199 ft..
long, and 2 for 200-299 ft.. cables, etc.
• Connect the display or projector to the Cat 5 receiver using a high quality audio
patch cord and component video cables.

3.4 CABLE LENGTH COMPENSATION
After connecting the entire system, you may wish to adjust the cable length
compensation to optimize the setting. Use the MINIMUM compensation setting
that still provides the best picture. It is ideal to make adjustments using the actual
source and TV intended for the location. Normally, the transmitter and receiver
are located near their respective source and TV, but if long RCA cables must be
used, compensate for this additional loss by increasing the cable compensation
setting one click for each 200 feet of coaxial cable length.
