8 Connect power cords to the TP receiver, the TP
transmitter, and turn on the video source(s) and the
output display(s).
All TP transmitters include a 15 V external power
supply. The transmitters also receive power from the
associated Extron TP receiver(s) (with the exception of
the TP R 15HD A) via the TP cable. Extron
recommends using the local power supply; however, the
power supply may not be necessary in some applications.
• The TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, TP T 468, and
TP T BNC may not require a local power supply for
cable lengths of 300' (91 m) or less.
• The TP T BNC DA4 and any transmitter
connected to a TP R 15HD A always require the
local power supply.
If you encounter problems, use the local power supply.
9 Adjust the picture controls on the front panel of the
transmitter and receiver(s). See “Front Panel Control and
Indicator,” later in this chapter, and refer to the TP
Receivers Family User’s Manual.
10 TP T 468 only — Mount the transmitter into the mud ring
or electrical box. See “Mounting the AAP devices” and
“Mounting the transmitter to the mud ring or wall box” or
“Euro Channel transmitter installation,” later in this
chapter.
11 TP T 468 only — Restore power to the devices.
Video jumpers
The TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, TP T BNC, and
TP T BNC DA4 transmitters can be configured to transmit
component video, S-video, or composite video.
The transmitters are factory configured for RGB video.
For any other type of video, reconfigure the jumpers.
1 . Remove the two screws on each side and the screw on top
of the cover (figure 2-1).
Installation
CAUTION Installation and service must be performed by
authorized personnel only. The TP T 468 must be
used with a UL approved electrical box.
Overview
To install and set up a TP transmitter and the associated TP
receiver(s) for operation, perform the following steps:
1 Disconnect power from all of the equipment, including the
video source(s) (such as computers or DVD players), the
transmitter, the receiver, and the output display(s).
2 For component, S-video, or composite video, reconfigure
the jumpers (TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, and TP T BNC
DA4) or DIP switch (TP T 468). See “Video jumpers” or
Video DIP switch,” later in this chapter.
3 TP T 15HD AV only — If desired, configure the audio
jumpers to make the transmitter compatible with
unmodified TP receivers. See “Audio jumpers,” later in
this chapter.
The TP T 15HD AV is a redesigned (modified)
transmitter. The audio jumpers configure the audio
portion of the composite video TP link to work with the
similarly redesigned TP R BNC AV receiver or with
older, unmodified receivers. Redesigned transmitters
and receivers have an identifying label.
4 Mount the transmitter in a rack, under a desk or podium,
in a desk or table (TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, or
TP T BNC DA4) or in a wall (TP T 468). See “Mounting
the TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, or TP T BNC DA4” or
“Installing the TP T 468,” later in this chapter.
5 Connect the input cables. See “Input cabling,” later in this
chapter.
6 Connect the cable(s) between the transmitter and the TP
receiver(s). See “Transmitted signal cabling,” later in this
chapter and refer to the TP Receivers Family User’s Manual.
7 Configure the TP receiver(s). Refer to the TP Receivers
Family User’s Manual.
