grounded. A display with a three wire AC plug meets this requirement, but if the
display has a two wire plug, you should ground the Cat5 receiver directly to the
AC Outlet.
We highly recommend reviewing the AC ground at each display outlet and rack
location to ensure proper wiring and compliance with the NEC.
When using external Cat5 surge suppressors to further protect your system, the
ground connection is absolutely required as the surge suppressor only works
when properly connected to ground.

Testing Cables Prior To Use

When using Cat5 cable testers/certifiers, the cable should map each pin straight
across (i.e. 1 to 1, 2 to 2, through 8 to 8).

Overview

Generally there are three ways to control the matrix switch:
1) Front panel buttons
2) IR remote
3) Serial commands (RS232 or USB)
This section of the user guide deals with the front panel and IR remote methods.
Serial commands are discussed in the section titled ―Serial Protocolǁ further
down in this document.

Front Panel Control

The front panel uses technologic senses a human finger touching the panel
without any moving parts. The buttons also have LED indicators which will
help you understand what mode the system or menu is in at any time. The front
panel is shown below.
