Troubleshooting

After input and display devices are connected to the distribution

amplifier and all units are powered up, the system is fully

operational. If any problems occur, ensure that the cables are

properly routed and connected. Some common problems and

diagnostic checks are shown below:
If the LED light on the front panel is not on, the distribution

amplifier is not receiving power. Ensure that the electric outlet

is functional and that the power cord is correctly connected (see

page 2-7

).

If there is no image on the display device, check that there is

an input signal. If the LED light is amber, the power is on but

the distribution amplifier is not receiving an input signal. Verify

that the cables are correctly connected from the input device and

that the input device is switched on (see pages 2-9 and 2-10).
If the front LED is green but there is still no output signal:

Check that the cables to the output device are connected

correctly (see pages 2-9 and 2-10).
Make sure that the output for that channel has not been

muted (see page 2-11).
Change the sync impedance of the output to 75 ohms on the

front panel (see page 2-8).

If the source is a laptop computer, which is providing an

unstable output image

, ensure sync impedance switch number

1 (input sync) is in the ON position (see page 2-8).
If output 1 supports an image but other display devices do not,

ensure that the resolution capabilities of the display device on

output 1 does not exceed the resolution capabilities of output

devices on the other channels. For optimal performance, all

display devices should have similar resolution capabilities (see

page 2-9

).
