6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING
Problems with the MX-2522 Matrix Switcher are rare. Most of the time, the
problem is caused by the use of an incorrect cable for the signal type, to long a
cable run, bad connectors on the cable and occasionally damaged cables. Bad
grounds or use of different AC power sources for the MX-2522 Matrix Switcher,
Signal Source and/or Display Device(s) may also cause problems due to ground
loops.
After trying the above suggestions should the problem still persist, contact your
dealer for additional suggestions before contacting TV One. Should the dealer’s
technical personnel be unable to assist you, contact TV One via our support
website: http://tvone.crmdesk.com. Create a technical support request on the
