General use
In use, the X100 modules should be transparent - the system and its peripherals
should operate exactly as normal, the only difference being that they are now up
to 100 metres or more apart.
In some installations, you may see some ‘shadows’ to the right of high contrast
screen characters. This can be caused by an incorrectly selected sharpness setting
and it may be necessary to make adjustments to correct this. Please see
compensation.-.sharpness.and.brightness
in the ‘Special configuration’
section.
