TP315-104 and for detailed installation instructions, including multiple receiver
wiring.
Step 1: Connect the TP315-104 Receiver to the TP315-103 Transmitter using a
standard AC extension cord. Use a 12 AWG cord for full 15 A at the receiver
end.
One transmitter supports up to 4 receivers. Use 4 extension cords plugged
into the transmitter or daisy chain the receivers using extension cords.
Do NOT exceed 4 receivers from a single transmitter.
Step 2: Connect the display to the HDMI output on the TP315-104 using the HDMI
cable provided.
A 1/4" stereo jack is provided for direct connect to a speaker or amplifier.
Step 3. The AnyWire receiver is now operating. Once the transmitter detects
the receiver, video is displayed automatically.
Step 4. The AnyWire Transmitter/Receiver pair allows IR pass-through from the receiver (far side) to the transmitter (near side). An IR
receiver is included with the TP315-104 and may be connected to the HDMI display (or anywhere accessible to the user)
allowing a remote control on the user/receiver side to control the source on the transmitter side of the AnyWire installation. The
AnyWire transmitter includes an IR emitter.

5. About Your TP315-104
HDMI over AC extension cord
Attached 9 ft. input power cord
Automatic input detection
HDMI resolutions 720p, 1080i, and 1080p
Transmission up to 100 ft. (30 m)
IR pass-through control
The TP315-104 HDMI over AnyWire receiver allows the receipt of 1080P HDMI signals up to 100 ft. (30 m) using a simple
3-conductor extension cord. A single transmitter may drive up to 4 receivers using either 4 individual cords 100 ft. (30 m) each, or by
daisy chaining the receivers. The only restriction being the cords from the transmitter to each receiver cannot be bundled together as
crosstalk occurs.
The TP315-104 is an economical solution for many audiovisual installations. The single extension cord solution makes installation
easy without the need to cut and splice wires and install expensive connectors or purchase costly cables. Simply route your cord and
plug the TP315-104 into the extension cord and you are ready to go. That's it!
The unique design of the AnyWire Receiver provides stable video over greater distances than other designs. IR pass-through for
receiver side to transmitter side control is provided without corrupting the HDMI signal during transmission of IR signals.
Operation does not require any user control or interaction. Simply connect the AnyWire input and when the transmitter detects the
receiver the receiver begins video transmission to the display.

7. Operation
The TP315-104 requires no adjustments for performance.
Once set-up, the TP315-104 AnyWire Receiver works
trouble-free without user intervention.
7.1 Reset Button
A reset button is provided on the side of the unit to allow a
forced reset without having to disconnect power. Use this only
if there are problems connecting to the receiver; typically, after
a new display is installed or after a power outage.
8. Troubleshooting Guide
We have carefully tested and have found no problems in the supplied TP315-104. However, we would like to offer suggestions for the
following:
AnyWire
Symptom
Resolution
LEDs on Are Off
The unit may not be receiving power.
1. Make sure the receiver is connected to the extension cord from the transmitter.
2. Make sure the transmitter is plugged into a working AC outlet.
3. Check the circuit breaker on the transmitter and receiver. If either is tripped, push to reset.
Data Transmission
LED is flashing very
slow
The transmitter and receiver are not communicating.
1. Check the connection; make sure both ends are connected.
2. Make sure the transmitter is powered on.
3. Press the reset button on the side of the unit or reset power to force the transmitter to try and
re-establish a connection.
No Display
The HDMI input signal may be missing.
1. Check the source and make sure there is a signal present.
2. Make sure the source resolution is 720p, 1080i, or 1080p.
3. Make sure both the TP315-105 and TP315-104 are powered and the Connected LEDs are both
green.
4. Make sure the monitor has power and is turned on.
5. Verify the monitor is connected to the TP315-104 Receiver's HDMI output
6. Make sure the monitor's correct HDMI input number is selected.
Poor Output Image
1. The source resolution may not be compatible with the projector or another display device. Try
other resolutions from the source.
2. The source and display may not be compatible. Connect the source directly to the input of the
projector or other display device. If the image is poor the devices may be incompatible.
3. If using multiple receivers, make sure that the transmission lines are not bundled together at any
point in the transmission. If the cables are bundled (zip tied together) this causes crosstalk
between the different channels and can result in image problems.
