CAUSE
1. V883 output cables incorrectly
routed. TV/monitor connected
to incorrect output.
2. TV/monitor has incorrect input
selected.
3. Video wiring bad/damaged.
4. Video source not sending video
(not connected, playing, or
turned on).
V883 input cables incorrectly
routed. Source connected to
incorrect V883 input.
Incorrect programming.
1. Composite video source not
connected to same type (Y, P
input as TV/monitor.
2. TV/monitor has incorrect input
selected.
CAUSE
1. In-house video wiring picking
up noise from high-voltage lines
or other source of interference.
2. In-house coax runs have sharp
bends or using poor quality
cable.
3. Video wiring bad/damaged.
4. Incorrect 75 Ohm DIP switch
setting when sharing sources or
utilizing multiple chassis.
1. Component video cables con-
nected to wrong type (Y, P
of inputs/outputs at V883 or
TV/monitor.
2. One or more component video
connections (Y, P

Select correct composite video
input on TV/monitor.
SOLUTION
Do not run video wiring near AC
lines. If necessary, cross AC lines
at 90 degrees.
Make gradual bends in coax when
running wire. Use high-quality
RG-6 coaxial cable.
