Video Input Compensation for CAT5 Inputs

After the system is connected, it may be necessary to adjust the video input
compensation pots on the C2N-DAP8RC to achieve the best picture on the monitor.
This requires a narrow slotted screwdriver and an audio/video calibration DVD (or
laser disc). Crestron recommends one of the following:

• Avia Guide to Home Theater, from Ovation Software (www.ovationsw.com)
• Video Essentials, from DVD International (www.videoessentials.com).
To adjust the video input compensation:

1. Place the calibration disk in the system's DVD player.

2. Search the DVD for the chapter that displays the multi-burst pattern, as

shown in the following figure:

NOTE: For S-video and component video sources, be sure to adjust the pot for
luminance compensation first (VIDEO INPUT COMP 1). The pots for chrominance
compensation should be adjusted last.

3. While the pattern is being displayed on the monitor, use the

screwdriver to adjust the VIDEO INPUT COMP 1 compensation pot
until the line intensity on the monitor appears uniform. Note the
numeric value.

4. Adjust the other two compensation pots (VIDEO INPUT COMP 2 & 3)

to the same value as the VIDEO INPUT COMP 1 compensation pot.

Universal Remotes

The C2N-DAP8RC can communicate with any universal remote control transmitter
that uses standard RC5 code, as well as some Sharp codes. An RC5 code is 14 bits
long and includes a 5-bit address (or “System Number”) and a 6-bit “Command
Number.”

Refer to the note on page 55 for a
definition of Viewport.

The setup procedure for a universal remote is completed in two steps. First, the
Crestron Viewport is used to verify that the transmitter sends an identifiable code
that is compatible with the C2N-DAP8RC. Second, the buttons on the transmitter
are mapped so that they can be programmed in SIMPL Windows.
