3.1 About the TP-107V / TP-120 BoardView

Kits

The

TP-107V is an XGA Line Transmitter that accepts a computer graphics

video signal and transmits it over a CAT 5 cable.
The

TP-120 is an XGA Line Receiver

that receives a coded CAT 5 signal,

decodes it and converts it to an XGA output.
The kits include two, four or eight

TP-107V machines that can be

interconnected (via the combined CAT 5 and K-NET cables, supplied with the

kit) and each assigned a priority number

(in sequence). Pressing an online

button on any of the interconnected machines transmits the signal from that

machine to the

TP-120 receiver, which is also connected to the system (see

Figure 1). The signal is then decoded by the

TP-120 and converted to an XGA

output. If the ONLINE button is pressed simultaneously on several machines,

the machine with the highest machine number will transmit the signal to the

receiver.
The priorities of a

TP-107V / TP-120 system can also be set by the RC-108 or

the

RC-116 presentation controllers

(see section 3.3) that can determine which

machine in the chain will have access to the

TP-120.
