    Troubleshooting No video? Are the green LEDs on both the transmitter and receiver units? If not check that the 24V power supply (PSU) is connected and the LED on the PSU is lit. Check the cable compensation dials on the underside of the unit. Over compensation of the Red and Blue channels can cause the display to misinterpret the sync pulses and not display an image.
