The transmitter and receiver are designed for and

perform best with Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable

terminated in accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568 A

wiring standard. CAT 5 cables are acceptable but less

preferable. We also recommend the use of pre-terminated

and tested cables. Cables terminated on site should

be tested before use to ensure that they comply with

Category 5/5e/6/7 specifications.

The recommendations shown in the table apply for a

single transmitter and receiver. For example, the

maximum suggested range for 1024 x 768 video is 300’

(90 m) with Pre-Peak off and 600’ (150 m) with it on.

Receiver Jumpers

The MTP U R receivers have three jumpers on the main board.

Jumper 1 (JMP1) controls RS-232 directional communication,

and Jumpers 2 (JMP2) and 3 (JMP3) control vertical and

horizontal sync respectively.
By default, JMP1 is closed on all models and

configured to send serial data both ways

(bidirectional), transmitter-to-receiver and

receiver-to-transmitter. Jumpers 2 and 3 are

open (negative sync) by default.

Setting JMP1 for RS-232 communication

JMP1 can be repositioned to enable unidirectional (one-way,

pass through) communication as follows:
1

.

If applicable, disconnect all cables, remove the receiver

from its installation location, and remove any mounting

brackets installed.

2

.

Remove the two screws from either side of the receiver

(four screws total) and lift the top cover off of the receiver.

3

.

Locate jumper JMP1 on the main board. Remove and

reposition it over one pin (see figure 3).

Reposition the jumper
block to cover one pin.

If JMP2 and JMP3 also need setting, go to page 6, “Setting

JMP2 and JMP3 to positive vertical and/or horizontal sync

polarity” section. Otherwise, replace the top cover.
