Introduction, cont’d Output — An RJ-45 connector provides a connection to an Extron TP R receiver. Horizontal shift — Allows you to adjust the horizontal placement of the computer video image on the screen. This is also called “horizontal centering”. DDSP™ (Digital Display Sync Processing™) — Allows the sync signal to pass through without altering sync pulse timing or width. TP T 15HD AV transmitter Video inputs — Computer video — Accepts computer analog video on a female 15-pin HD connector.

Installation and Operation Installation Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. C Overview To install and set up a TP transmitter for operation, follow these steps: 1 Disconnect power from all of the equipment, including the video source(s) (such as computers or DVD players), the transmitter, the receiver(s), and the output display(s). 2 If using component, S-video, or composite video, reconfigure the video jumpers as needed.
Configuring video jumpers for component, S-video, and composite video The TP T Series transmitters are configured at the factory for RGB video. To transmit component video (bi-level sync only), S-video, or composite video, you must place the video jumpers on the transmitter’s internal main board as follows: 1. Remove the two screws on each side of the unit and one screw on top. 2.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Setting audio jumpers for use with unmodified receivers N Older (unmodified) transmitters and receivers are fully compatible with each other, but not with the TPX 88 A twisted pair matrix switcher. Redesigned (modified) transmitters and receivers are fully compatible with each other and with the TPX 88 A. You can use jumper connections to make redesigned transmitters and receivers compatible with the unmodified models, but not with the TPX 88 A.
Mounting the transmitters The TP T Series transmitters can be set on a table; mounted on a rack shelf; or mounted through or under a desk, podium, or tabletop. The following optional mounting kits are available: • RSM 100 — Rack shelf mount kit for twisted pair products (#70-123-01) • RSB 129 — 1U, 9.5" deep basic rack shelf (#60-604-01, -02) • RSU 129 — 1U, 9.
Installation and Operation, cont’d The following illustration shows how to mount the transmitter on a 9.5" rack shelf. 1U Universal Rack Shelf RSM 100 TP Mounting Bracket (2) 4-40 x 3/16" Screws PRELIMINARY Use 2 Mounting Holes (each side) Rack mounting the transmitter Under-desk mounting Furniture-mount the transmitter under a desk or shelf using the optional mounting kit (part #70-077-01), as illustrated below. To mount the transmitter under a desk, podium, or table top, 1.
6. Drill pilot holes 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) deep and 3/32 inch (2 mm) in diameter into the table or desk top at the marked screw locations. The holes should be drilled from the underside or inside (concealed side) of the furniture where the transmitter will be located. 7. Insert #8 wood screws into the four pilot holes. Tighten each screw into the mounting surface until slightly less than 1/4 inch of the screw head protrudes. 8.
Installation and Operation, cont’d 7. Slide the unit up and down or back and forth in the mounting brackets until the front panel of the unit is at the desired height. Tighten the screws that secure the brackets in place. If the bracket screws are inaccessible to a screwdriver when the unit is in place, a. Mark the location of the brackets relative to the screws. b. Remove the transmitter from inside the furniture. c. Tighten the screws. d. Replace the unit inside the surface.

f Input BNC connectors — Connect the desired video input device to these BNC connectors, which accept RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, component video, S-video, and composite video. Transmission of component video, S-video, or composite video requires that internal jumpers be reconfigured. See “Configuring video jumpers for component, S-video, and composite video”, earlier in this chapter. N Input only sync signals (no video signals) on the H/V and V BNC connectors.

Installation and Operation, cont’d If the image is not displayed correctly 1. For computer video, if the output image looks too green, ensure that the receiver’s SOG switch is set to Off. 2. For computer video, if the picture hangs off the edge of the screen, adjust the transmitter’s H Shift control. N DDSP disables the horizontal shift control. 3. Place the receiver’s Manual/Auto switch to manual and adjust the level and peaking controls for optimum quality. 4.
