1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Marmitek MegaView 91™! The
MegaView 91™provides a simple way to extend an HDMI (High Definition
Multimedia Interface) signal or DVI (Digital Visual Interface) over a single
CAT5e/6 Ethernet cable. It even works on your existing home network
(LAN) including routers and switchers. The maximum CAT5e/6 cable length
is 120 metres, at a 1080p resolution. Watch TV programmes, films and
photos stored on, for example, a digital TV decoder, Media Center PC, Blu-
ray player or HDD recorder located elsewhere in your home. Several
receivers may simultaneously be connected to the same network. The built-
in loop-through function (HDMI out) on the transmitter allows you to watch
the same content on both your primary HDTV and your secondary HDTV or
HD projector (through the receiver).
All Marmitek products are manufactured with the utmost precision and are
of high quality. Please read this manual carefully and follow the instructions
to enjoy the possibilities of this product optimally.

2. PACKAGE CONTENTS
MegaView 91™
1x transmitter (HDMI Transmitter)
1x receiver (HDMI Receiver)
1x Infrared receiver
1x Infrared blaster LED
2x Power adapter
1x User manual
3. CAT5e/CAT6 CABLE REQUIREMENTS
UTP-, FTP- or STP-cable
24AWG or lower
Solid twisted pair
100 ohm at 1MHz
RJ-45 jack according to EIA/TIA T568B standard
When the set is connected to a home network (LAN), Marmitek
recommends the use of switchers and routers with Gigabit (1000Mbps)
network ports for best performance.
Instead of CAT5e cable, CAT6 cable may also be applied (this offers better
quality). Use a ‘solid twisted pair CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable’ in order to
optimise transfer quality.

4. INSTALLATION
In order to check proper functioning of the system, it is advisable to test the
set-up first, using a short CAT-5e/6 cable.
1. Switch off all appliances before you start connecting.
2. Connect the HDMI source (Blu-ray disc player, TV Decoder, Media
Centre PC, etc.) to the MegaView 91 transmitter [1], using an HDMI
cable (not provided).
3. Optional: connect an HDTV to the MegaView 91™transmitter [2] with
an HDMI cable to HDMI OUT, to be able to continue to watch TV in this
room.
4. Connect your HDTV or HD projector to the MegaView 91™receiver [3]
with an HDMI cable to HDMI OUT.
5. Use one CAT5e/6 Ethernet cable to connect the MegaView 91’s
transmitter to the receiver [4].
The MegaView 91™ can either be connected by using a single
cable, or through an existing home network (LAN) in combination
with network switches and routers.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to connect additional receivers.
7. Connect the power adapter [5] to the ‘5VDC’ connection on the
MegaView 91™ and plug the adapters into a socket.
Attention! Do not place the MegaView 91™transmitter or receiver in an
enclosed space, such as a TV cabinet or equivalent. Provide adequate
ventilation to ensure that the product is functioning properly and to protect
against overheating.

5. INSTALLATION IR RETURN
The MegaView 91™ has a built-in “infrared return channel”, which allows
you to operate the connected device from another room or through closed
cabinet doors using your own remote control.
1. Connect the IR receiver to the MegaView 91™receiver [6].
Position it so that it is visible to your (infrared) remote control, allowing
it to receive the transmitted commands (up to 6 metres).
The most logical place for the IR receiver is in the vicinity of your
display device (HDTV or projector).
By using the supplied adhesive strip, placement is possible virtually
anywhere.
Experiment to find the right position before definitive attachment of the
IR receiver.
Attention! The adhesive strip may cause discolouration on certain
surfaces, or may leave adhesive residue when removed.
2. Connect the IR extender cable to the MegaView 91™transmitter [7].
Stick the IR blaster LED near the HDMI source.
When positioned correctly, one blaster LED can operate all A/V devices
within the same compartment of a cabinet.
Experiment to find the right position before definitive attachment of the
IR blaster LED.
Attention! The adhesive strip may cause discolouration on certain
surfaces, or may leave adhesive residue when removed.
6. USAGE
1. Switch on the HDMI source (e.g. TV Decoder or Media Centre PC).
2. Switch on the display device (for instance HDTV or projector) and
select the appropriate input. Usually you will do this by pressing the A/V
or EXT button of your remote control.
3. You will receive images from the connected A/V device immediately.
4. The MegaView 91™can also be used to operate the HDMI source
from another room, by pointing your own remote control at the IR
receiver and pressing a button.

7. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Bad (or no) image and sound
Please check that the HDMI source is on.
Use only CAT5e/CAT6 cable as specified in chapter 3 (CAT5e Cable
Requirements).
Check if the CAT5e/CAT6 cable provides a solid connection (no cable
faults).
Check if the RJ-45 has been connected according to the EIA/TIA
T568B standard.
Please ensure that the maximum cable length is not exceeded.
Install your system as far away from any RF sources (wireless devices)
as possible.
Set a low resolution on your HDMI source. The CAT5e/6 cable used
probably cannot deal with the higher resolution bandwidth.
The screen will display the text “Waiting for connection”
When both the ‘’LINK’’ and ‘’DATA’’ LEDs are not lit on the receiver,
check the cable connections to the transmitter and the sender.
When the transmitter and receiver are connected through a network
(with routers / switchers), and the "DATA" LED is slowly blinking on the
receiver, check the cable connection between the transmitter and the
network.
The screen will display the text ‘’Please check the TX input signal’’
Please check that the HDMI source is on.
