2.1 Quick Start
This quick start chart summarizes the basic setup and operation steps.

Overview

3 Overview
The 713 and 714 are a TP (Twisted Pair) transmitter and receiver for composite
video and unbalanced stereo audio signals. The 713 transmitter converts composite
video and stereo audio into a Twisted Pair (TP) signal and the 714 receiver
converts the TP signal back to composite video, stereo audio and also provides an
S/PDIF digital audio output.
The 713/714 feature:
•A system range of up to 1600m (5300ft), depending on the model
•Audio transmission in broadcast quality digital audio format (48kHz/24bit)
•Automatic audio and video equalization (EQ) control (714)
The 713 and 714 are part of the Kramer TOOLS™ family of compact high-quality
and cost effective solutions which are fed from an external 12V DC source, making
them suitable for field operation.
To achieve the best performance:
•Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise
levels (often associated with low quality cables)
•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your
Kramer TOOLS™ away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
3.1 Shielded Twisted Pair/Unshielded Twisted Pair
We recommend that you use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable. There are
different levels of STP cable available, and we advise you to use the best quality
STP cable that you can afford. Bear in mind, though, that we advise using STP
cables where possible, since the compliance to electromagnetic interference has
been tested using STP cables.
Although Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable might be preferred for extended
distance applications, the UTP cable should be installed as far as possible from
electric cables, motors, and so on, which tend to create electrical interference.
However, since the use of UTP cable might not conform to electromagnetic
standards, Kramer does not commit to meeting the standard with UTP cable.
Note: There is no requirement and we do not recommend the use of skew-free
cable.
3.2 Power Connect
The Power Connect™ feature does not apply to the 713 and 714.

5 Connecting the 713 and 714
You can use the 713 and 714 to configure a long distance audio-video transmitter
and receiver system.
To connect the 713 and the 714 as illustrated in the example in Figure 5:
Figure 5: Connecting the Video-Audio Line Transmitter/Receiver System
1. On the 713, connect a composite video source (for example, a composite
video player) to the VIDEO IN BNC connector, and connect the unbalanced
stereo audio to the AUDIO IN LEFT and RIGHT AUDIO IN RCA
connectors.
2. Using CAT 5 cabling, connect the LINE OUT RJ-45 connector on the 713 to
the RJ-45 LINE IN connector on the 714.

3. On the 714, connect the VIDEO OUT BNC connector to a composite video
acceptor (for example, a display), and connect the AUDIO OUT RIGHT and
LEFT RCA connectors to an unbalanced audio acceptor (for example, an
amplifier).
4. On the 714, connect the S/PDIF connector to a digital audio acceptor (for
example, an amplifier).
5. Connect the 12V DC power adapters first to the 713 then to the 714.
Note: This order of connection is mandatory.
6. Connect both power adapters to the mains electricity.
7. If required, adjust the equalization level either automatically or manually on
the 714 (see Section 5.1).
5.1 Automatic and Manual Equalization
You can set the equalization on the 714 either manually or automatically.
To set the equalization automatically, press the Auto button. To set the equalization
manually, press either the Manual + or – button to increase or decrease the
equalization respectively.
On power up, the 714 is set to Auto mode and adjusts the video and audio for the
best quality possible. For most situations it is recommended that you leave the
device in Auto mode.
When the signal or the link between the 713 and the 714 is lost, pressing the Auto
button once is sufficient to set the Auto mode.
When using the Manual mode, the first press of either the + or – button sets the
equalization to the 760m (2500ft) setting. Pressing the Auto button returns the
device to the Auto mode.
