Page 11: Skew Compensation Settings
CHAPTER 3: Setup and Installation 3.4.2 Skew Compensation Settings The AK600 receiver is available with an optional skew compensation module to adjust for signal timing differences due to differing pair lengths within the CAT5 cable. Using the delay signals, skew may be compensated from 2 to 65 nanoseconds in 2 nanosecond increments on each individual color pair. -
Page 12: Troubleshooting
MAGENTA MULTIVIEW™ SERIES 4. Troubleshooting 4.1. Common Problems In most cases, nearly every issue with the MultiView CAT5 Video System can be resolved by checking the CAT5 termination and making sure that it’s pinned to the TIA/EIA 568B wiring specification. However, there may be other problems that cause the system to not perform as it’s designed. - Page 13 CHAPTER 4: Troubleshooting Problem: Serial communication doesn’t work correctly. Solution: • Are the serial devices connected properly? Are the serial parameters correct for source/destination devices? • Are the serial cables terminated correctly? If a null-modem cable is used, it must be placed at the receiver end. •...
