Be sure to include the AAP/MAAP connectors as part of
the installation pretest before final installation of the
interface.

For more information about interface installation, refer to
the appropriate installation guide.

Pre-installation Testing

Before installing the interface into the wall, furniture, or floor
box, test the system as follows to verify that the connections and
settings are correct.

1.

Apply power to the interface. The power/signal LED on
the interface should light to indicate that the interface is
receiving power.

2.

Check all connectors and controls to make sure they are
functioning properly.

Troubleshooting

If the power/signal LED does not light or an installation
component does not function properly, first check the wiring at
both the interface and the power supply, and then ensure that
the power supply is connected to a power source.

Make sure that all the devices are powered on.

2.

Ensure that the connectors are wired correctly at both ends
of the cables. Audio cables must be wired for an

If input is from a laptop computer and no picture appears,
use a laptop breakout cable for the input connection.
Check the computer’s user’s guide or contact Extron to

video to the external video port. Also, many laptops’
screens shut off after the external video port is activated.
