Setting MTP Receiver level/peaking
If level/peaking is available on the connected receiver(s), adjust
it as follows:
1. If using an oscilloscope, apply a white field test pattern to
one of the local (VGA) inputs on the MTPX Plus.
If using a monitor, apply a grayscale test pattern to one of
the local (VGA) inputs on the MTPX Plus.
H
The Extron VTG 300 or VTG 400 are recommended to
provide the test pattern.
2. Tie the local input receiving the test pattern signal to the
output connected to the MTP receiver to be optimized.
