Installation and Operation, Operation cont’d All TP transmitters include a 15V external power supply. The transmitters also receive power from the associated Extron TP receiver(s) (with the exception of the TP R 15HD A) via the TP cable. Extron recommends using the local power supply; however, the power supply may not be necessary in some applications.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Remove the three screws on each side and the two screws on top of the cover (figure 2-1). Remove 8 Screws 1.
Installation and Operation, cont’d 1. Remove the three screws on each side and the one or two screws on top of the cover (figure 2-2). Remove (7) Screws Lift Cover straight up R WE DC PO.5A B A-V OU TP UT R V 15 TP R AV or TP R BNC AV Mounting the receiver Rack mounting (TP R BNC A, TP R BNC AV, TP R 15HD A) TP R BNC A, TP R BNC AV, or TP R 15HD AV — For optional rack mounting, mount the receiver on a 19" 1U Universal Rack Shelf (Extron part #60-190-01) (figure 2-3).
Installation and Operation, cont’d TP R 15HD A only — For optional rack mounting, mount the receiver on a VersaTools 19" 1U Rack Shelf (Extron part #60-190-20) (figure 2-4). The TP R 15HD A mounts in one of four locations on the rack.
Installation and Operation, cont’d For under-surface mounting, insert #8 wood screws into the four pilot holes. Tighten each screw into the mounting surface until just less than 1/4” of the screw protrudes. 6. For under-surface mounting, align the mounting screws with the slots in the brackets and place the receiver against the surface, with the screws through the bracket slots. 7.
Installation and Operation, cont’d 4 Computer video The TP R BNC A, TP R BNC AV and TP R 15HD A receive and output RGB video. These receivers can also receive component video, S-video, or composite video and output them on the R, G, and B signal lines. 3 10 5 15 5 SOG switch — Set this rear panel switch up for RGsB video and down for RGBHV or RGBS video. For RGBHV video, use the R, G, B, H/HV, and V BNCs. C Sync switch — Set this rear panel switch up for RGBS video and down for RGBHV or RGsB video.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Audio TP R BNC A and TP R AV — Wire the external 15V power supply into this 3-pole captive screw connector (figure 2-9) and plug the connector into the receiver. The power supply is included with the unit. All Extron TP receivers receive and output stereo audio. All receivers except the TP R 15HD A output the audio on both left and right RCA connectors and on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors. The TP R 15HD A outputs audio on the captive screw connector only.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Cable testing together; the signal transmitted on the shortest wire pair leads the other colors and appears to the left on the display. To ensure proper cable termination, each transmission cable system that uses CAT 5e should be tested (Extron’s Skew-Free UTP cable does not need to be tested). Testing the cable from the RJ-45 connections at the transmitter and receiver gives the most accurate indications of cable problems.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Front Panel Controls and Indicators 2 Manual/Auto switch (TP R BNC A and TP R BNC AV) — With this switch in the Auto position, the receiver automatically adjusts the level and peaking to compensate for long cable runs. In the Manual position, you can manually compensate for long cable runs using the level and peaking controls. 3 Auto LED (TP R BNC A and TP R BNC AV) — Indicates that the Manual/Auto switch is in the Auto position.
Installation and Operation, cont’d 10. For computer video from a laptop or for ungrounded AC distribution systems, the transmitter may need to be grounded. See Grounding the transmitter in the TP Transmitter Family User’s Manual, part #68-546-01. 11. Call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline if necessary. If the image is not displayed correctly 1. For computer/RGB video, if the output image looks too green, ensure that the receiver’s SOG switch is off. 2.
