2. Installation Procedures

Step 1. Determine if the computer needs to receive available video resolutions from the display device or from the internal memory of the DA103-217. Set the
EDID switch to INT for using the DA103-217 internal memory or EXT to use the display resolutions. The switch is located on the side of the unit and
is accessible through a rectangular opening.
Step 2. Use the video cable provided and connect one end to the display and the other end to the output of the DA103-217.
Step 3. Connect the long cable from the source to the DA103-217 video input.
Step 4. Apply power to the DA103-217 using the adapter provided. The Power/Signal Present LED is RED if there is power
and GREEN if a signal is present.
Step 5. Set the adjustment potentiometers as follows:
EQ= Minimum (full CCW)
Step 6. If the image is visible, start by adjusting the EQ until the image is clear. A 250 ft (76 m) cable requires near maximum equalization. If there is no
image, start by slowly increasing the SYNC ADJ. Stop adjusting when the image is visible.
Step 7. While viewing the image on the display, fine-tune the image using the EQ and GAIN adjustments.
Step 8. Next, fine-tune the SYNC ADJ for the best image/screen position.
Step 9. The DA103-217 is now operational.
