CHAPTER 4: Troubleshooting
Problem: “Green shift” or “green washout” on multimedia signals.
Solution: The standard video/serial model is designed to function with DC
coupled signals in which the black level is referenced to 0 volts.
Nearly all VGA cards function this way.
Some media servers, however, provide AC coupled signals and
can cause a green color shift in the video. This is a result of the
sync clamping on the red and blue channels of the video/serial
model.
For five-component (RGB/H&V) AC coupled video, the
MultiView CAT5 XRTx Universal transmitter has been designed
with full DC restoration capability. This problem is easily solved
via a simple switch setting in the XRTx Transmitter. Please refer to
the XRTx Transmitter user manual.
Problem: Notes on Daisy Chaining:
Solution: When daisy chaining, the maximum cable distance is not increased
beyond the rated distance of the receiver used. For example, an
AK600 can only daisy chain within 600 ft of the transmitter.
It is possible to daisy chain out of a short range receiver into a longer
range receiver to increase the range. For example, over 600 ft an
AK600 can be daisy chained into an AK1200 which allows for daisy
chaining to 1,200 ft.
• If using L/R summed audio, simplex serial, or SPDIF units a
maximum of 12 units may be daisy changed within the rated
cable length of the receiver.
• When using SA units, a maximum of 4 units may be daisy
chained within the rated cable length of the receiver.
• When using SAP units, a maximum of 12 units may be daisy
chained within the rated cable length of the receiver if using
standard cat5/6 or a maximum of 8 units may be daisy chained
within the rated cable length of the receiver if using skew-free
cable
