Captive Screw Connection - Atlona AT-HDVS-TX User Manual

Captive Screw
Captive screw connectors are an added feature on the HD Extenders. The captive screw connectors
allow you to cut cables to a suitable length, reducing cable clutter while providing a more reliable
connection.
Connecting
When connecting the cables to the captive screw connector it is important that the wires be
terminated correctly. The captive screw connector (see picture A) has a contact plate at the top and
must have the wires touching it for signal to pass. When wired correctly (see picture B) the signal
will pass, incorrectly (see picture C) no signal will pass.
The captive screw connectors have a contact bar that is adjusted to compress the wire against the
top contact plate. Use the screws at the top of the connector to compress the wire against the
contact plate.
Clockwise
Turn the screws clockwise to
raise the contact bar to the upper
contact plate and hold the wires
in place.
The power pin out (see picture 1) and wire configuration (see picture 2 and 3) are shown below.
Note: When using the HDVS-RX do not connect a power supply to the HDVS-TX
