Introduction This section gives an overview of the user guide. This section also describes the MTP 15HD RS Series of transmitters and receivers. Topics that are covered include: zz About this Guide zz About the MTP Transmitters and Receivers zz Transmission Distance zz Receiver Jumpering About this Guide This guide contains installation, configuration, and operation information for two families of Extron MTP transmitters and receivers.
About the MTP Transmitters and Receivers The Extron MTP T 15HD RS transmitter and MTP RL 15HD RS and MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ receivers are a system for long-distance distribution of VGA or other high resolution video and RS-232 serial communications. The MTPs are a part of the Extron compact line of basic distribution amplifiers, switchers, transmitters, receivers, and associated video accessories. High resolution video is sent to the MTP transmitter on a 15-pin HD connector.
The SEQ receiver also corrects the skew delay commonly encountered when CAT 5, 5e, 6, 7, or STP201 cables are used for RGB video, component video, and S-video transmission. NOTE: An SEQ receiver should not be necessary when Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable is used. Each MTP transmitter and receiver model is shipped with an external desktop 12 VDC power supply that accepts 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz input.

Receiver Jumpering By default, the receiver is unidirectional, configured to send serial data from the transmitter to the receiver, only. If the system has only one receiver, this jumper can be repositioned to enable bidirectional communication as follows: 1. If applicable, disconnect all cables, remove the receiver from its installation location, and remove any mounting brackets installed. 2.
Installation and Operation This section provides information on: zz Installation and Operation Overview zz Front Panel Features zz Transmitter Rear Panel Features zz Receiver Rear Panel Features zz Power Supply Wiring zz Twisted Pair Cable Termination zz Skew Delay Compensation Installation and Operation Overview Follow the steps below to properly install and operate any of the Extron MTP 15HD RS transmitters and receivers.

Use a small screwdriver to press and release this button to cycle among selecting the Red, Green, or Blue video signal to adjust. The selected signal is indicated by the Red, Green, and Blue LEDs (e).

f DIP switches (RL receivers only) — A 6-pole DIP switch is used to configure the features of the MTP receivers. zz Horizontal sync (H Sync +) switch — Set this switch On (up) for positive horizontal sync or Off (down) for negative sync. zz Vertical sync (V Sync +) switch — Set this switch On (up) for positive vertical sync or Off (down) for negative sync. NOTE: zz For H Sync + and V Sync +, most devices use negative sync.
Power Supply Wiring Figure 9 below shows how to wire the connector. CAUTION: 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. To verify the polarity before connection, plug in the power supply with no load and check the output with a voltmeter.
Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector. As an alternative, an Extron PS 124 Universal 12 VDC Power Supply (part number 60-1022-01) can power multiple MTPs or other Extron 12 VDC devices using only one AC power connector. Twisted Pair Cable Termination Figure 10 details the recommended termination of TP cables with RJ-45 connectors in accordance with the TIA/EIA T568A or TIA/EIA T568B wiring standards.
Skew Delay Compensation CAT 5, 5e, 6, 7, and STP201 cable can lead to registration errors between the Red, 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, Green, or Blue video image leads (appears to the left of) the other two video images. NOTE: Unless the TP cable is changed, the skew adjustment should need to be made only once, during installation.
