The CPU and the TX Connector

Video connections to the CPU are made between the video output card of the CPU and the TX VGA
connector labeled "FROM CPU" (closest to fiber connectors). The additional video connector is for a
local administrator to view the video output at the TX unit.
The analog VGA inputs are converted to a fiber optic suitable form and transmitted to the RX unit.

Modifying the Analog RGB Video Parameters

It is possible for one resolution to have different video timings, which could cause a less than perfect
display on the remote side. For example, take 1280x1024x60 Hz. The VESA standard has 1688 pixels
in one line, whereas a SGI format has 1680 pixels. The transmitter lookup table is configured for the
VESA standard, but can be easily modified to support the SGI format. (Refer to Section 7.2.6 for step by
step instructions.)
