INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing the Galaxy ™ system, designed for Distributing and daisy chaing high-resolution video signals over long distances via CAT 5 cables. By choosing Galaxy, you have assured that your installation is equipped for the everincreasing demands made in a modern computer-based information environment.
GETTING STARTED This manual describes the Galaxy installation and operation of the Galaxy system.
powered by a 19vdc mains adapter. Since the Rx60 only uses 200ma, the TFT mains adapter will normally be able to power the Rx60 as well. This is done by plugging the DC jack from the TFT mains adapter (possibly with the help of a DC jack adapter) into one of the Rx60 DC jack connectors. A jack-jack cable, which must be obtained from a stockist or constructed from components, can then be used to take the 19vdc current from the Rx60 to the TFT screen.

without UTP in modules, with and without delay lines. The UTP in modules differ in equalizing: the 125M module work with UTP lines up to 125M. For longer distances use the 300M Version with UTP-in for distances between 125 and 300 m The 125M version has no inside distance switches. The 300 version has inside switches for distance adjustment.
As default the distance is set to maximum 300 M. Changes in distance settings are made inside the Tx Repeater/Rx300. If the picture has visible vertical shadows it can be improved by adding internal or external delay line. To get the highest picture quality connect a monitor direct to the Tx units to calibrate the EQ and Gain before moving on to the next repeater or receiver box.
cable. SERVICE INFORMATION How long distance is it possible to make one line? The Tx1 and Tx4 has been tested with 900 meters without delaylines at 800x600. To go long distance you need a delay-line compensator to restore the signal. In information systems it is common to work in low resolution. Users are in distance of the display and need larger types. Daylight makes it difficult to work with monitors and displays outdoor. Using smaller displays needs larger types.
