2. Installation Procedures
Note: Download and read the entire online manual to become familiar with the TP316-101
and for detailed installation instructions.
Step 1: Connect the TP316-101 Transmitter to the TP316-102 Receiver using any 2 wires
or 2-conductor cable. If you use the cable shield as a conductor, make sure the
shield is not grounded. For best results, use 24 to 12 gage
wire; the 12-gage limitation is due to the opening in the
terminal connector.
The terminals are red and black, but there is no polarity.
Connect either wire to either terminal.
Step 2: Connect the TP316-101 to AC power using the cord provided.
Step 3: Connect the source HDMI video (computer, Blu-ray, videoconference, etc.) to the HDMI input on the TP316-101 using the
HDMI cable provided.
Step 4. The Anywire transmitter is now operating. Once the receiver is detected, video is displayed automatically.
Step 5. The Anywire Transmitter/Receiver pair allows IR pass-through from the receiver (far side) to the transmitter (near side). An IR
emitter is included with the TP316-101 and may be connected to the HDMI source allowing control from a remote control
connected to the receiver on the far side of the Anywire installation. The Anywire receiver includes an IR receiver.

The TP316-101 HDMI over Anywire transmitter allows the transmission of 4Kx2K (3840 x2160) HDMI signals up to 300 m using a
simple 2-conductor cable.
The TP316-101 is an economical solution for many audiovisual installations. The two wires solution makes installation easy without the
need to cut and splice wires and install expensive connectors or purchase costly cables. Simply route your wires, cut and trim the
installation and connect to the terminals. That's it!
The unique design of the Anywire Transmitter provides stable video transmission 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 HDMI input and the transmitter scans for the receiver
and when detected automatically pairs to the receiver and begins video transmission.

1. Check the source and make sure there is a signal present.
2. Make sure the source resolution is set to 720p, 1080i, 1080p or 4Kx2K (3840 x2160).
3. Make sure both the TP316-101 and TP316-102 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 TP316-102 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 other 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.
