INSTALLING YOUR MT103-123 6
Step 1. Determine the settings required for Gain,
Sync On Green, Horizontal Sync Polarity
and Vertical Sync Polarity. If necessary to
change the factory defaults, open the unit
and set the switches per DIAGRAM 4 on
page 8.
Step 2. Slide the MT103-123 into an available slot
in the Multi-Tasker™ Enclosure in order to
connect to the bus. Make sure that the card
fits into place. Secure the card to the Multi-
Tasker™ by tightening the retainer screws
located on the top and bottom of the card.
Step 3. Turn the enclosure power on or reset the
enclosure and verify the LED near the top
of the unit is illuminated RED indicating
power is applied.
Step 4. Connect the CAT-5/6 cable from the video
output of the CAT-5 Transmitter to the
CAT-5 Input port on the MT103-123.
Step 5. Verify the power LED at the top of the unit
changes to GREEN, indicating a SYNC
signal has been detected.
Step 6. Connect the stereo audio output from the
MT103-123 to the audio receiving device.
Step 7. Connect the receiving monitor to the
applicable MT103-123 Video Output
connector, either RGBHV/YPbPr, S-Video
or C-Video depending on the input type to
the transmitter.
Step 8. Verify the picture quality on the receiving
monitor is equivalent to the quality as
displayed on the local monitor at the
transmitter. If the quality of the image is
poor or non-existent, it may be necessary
to adjust the Video Equalization on the
MT103-123 and/or the CAT5 Transmitter.
See the OPERATION section that follows
for details.
OPERATION 7
The MT103-123 requires only one adjustment to be
made for optimal performance. Video Equalization
is required for long cable lengths and may be
adjusted to fine tune the video display.
7.1 RS-232 CONTROL
When used in the Multi-Tasker™ Enclosure, the
MT103-123 has many advanced remote control
capabilities, which are accessible through standard
RS-232 communication. The actual controlling can
be accomplished through a computer control system
or any other device capable of sending RS-232
commands.
7.1.1 RS-232 INTERFACE
The RS-232 commands, for the MT103-123, are
in a simple ASCII character format.
1. Square brackets “[ ]” are part of the
command.
2. Use uppercase letters for all commands.
After processing a command, an OK or ER will
be returned as feedback if "F" is included at the
end of a command string.
Commands ending in "S" will be saved into
memory. Commands not ending in "S" will still be
executed but will not be restored when the system
is reset or powered OFF then ON.
7.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMMANDS
Each command consists of three parts: Function,
Card ID, and Unit ID.
[Function , Card ID , Unit ID ]
Example: [VERC3U2]
VER = Function
C3 = Card ID or Group ID
U2 = Unit ID
For Function, see a detailed explanation under
each command description.
