Overview
To install and set up a TP transmitter for operation, follow these steps:
1 Disconnect power from all of the equipment, including the video source(s)
(such as computers or DVD players), the transmitter, the receiver(s), and the
output display(s).
2 If using component, S-video, or composite video, reconfigure the video
jumpers as needed. See “ Configuring video jumpers for component video,
S-video, and composite video ”, on the next page.
3 (TP T 15HD AV only) If desired, configure the audio jumpers to make the
transmitter compatible with unmodified TP receivers. See “ Setting audio
jumpers for use with unmodified receivers ”, later in this chapter.
N 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, or through a desk or
table as desired. See “ Mounting the transmitters ”, later in this chapter.
5 Connect the input cables. See “ Connectors and Cabling on the Front and Rear
Panels ”, later in this chapter.
6 Connect the output cable(s) from the transmitter to the TP receiver(s). See
“ Connectors and Cabling on the Front and Rear Panels ”, later in this chapter,
and refer to the TP Receivers Family User’s Manual for more information.
7 Configure the TP receiver(s). Refer to the TP Receivers Family User’s Manual.
8 Plug the included external 15 VDC power supply into the transmitter’s
three-pole captive screw connector, and power on the video source(s) and the
output display(s).
N The transmitters can also receive power from the associated Extron TP
receiver(s) (except from the TP R 15HD A) via the TP cable. Extron
recommends using the local power supply; however, this may not be necessary
for some applications.
• The transmitters may not require a local power supply for cable lengths
of 300’ (91 m) or less.
• Any transmitter connected to a TP R 15HD A receiver always requires
the local power supply.
If you encounter problems, use the local power supply.
9 TP T 15HD A and TP T 15HD AV: Set the ID Pin 4 and ID Pin 11 DIP switches
on the front panel and the DDSP ™ DIP switch on the back panel as desired.
(See the DIP switch descriptions under “Connectors and Cabling on the Front
and Rear Panels”, later in this chapter.)
10 TP T 15HD A and TP T 15HD AV: Adjust the horizontal shift control on the
front panel of the transmitter and receiver(s). See “ Controls and Indicators on
the Front and Rear Panels ”, later in this chapter, and refer to the TP Receivers
Family User’s Manual .
