Video Compensation
Video at the Receive end can be compensated using three main methods;
Using the UDM Hub’s WebConsole.
Using the UDM-RC02 Multi-Format IR Remote Control.
Using a hyper terminal session via the serial connector on the UDM Receiver (especially
effective setup method when using long runs).
Connecting an External IR Receiver Module
If passthrough mode (where a device such as a DVD or VCR can be controlled via a remote control) is
required then an IR03 External IR Receiver Module will be needed to pick up IR controls from the
remote control.
Additionally, if the UDM Receiver is to be compensated via a remote control, then an IR Receiver
Module is also needed.
Connecting the UDM Receiver to the UDM Hub
The RJ45 port on the front panel of the UDM Hub labelled “UDM” supports one UDM Receiver. The
UDM Receiver is then be connected to a display device.
1. Connect a standard Cat5/6 Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port labelled UDM on the front panel of the
UDM Hub.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port labelled UDM Hub on the rear panel of
the UDM Receiver.
UDM HUB Port LEDs
2 LEDs are visible at the UDM Hub port (on the UDM-RX01/RX02) when the UDM Hub is switched
on:
Green – Connection to UDM Hub (if Cat 5 removed, LED switches off).
Amber – Power (as well as comms if uploading protocols etc. the Amber LED may flicker).
Powering on the UDM-RX02
The UDM-RX02 may be powered by its hub device through a standard CAT5 cable, but it may also be
powered through an optional 24 VDC power supply (FG-UDM-PS) intended to augment power for very
long cable runs.
To connect the UDM Receiver to the optional power supply, insert the barrel connector of the power
supply into the power connector on the UDM Receiver (see FIG. 12 on page 16).
To power down the UDM-RX02, remove the barrel connector of the power supply from the power
connector and then remove the Ethernet cable from the UDM Hub connector.
Ensure the port the UDM-RX01/RX02 is attached to is configured correctly within the
Status option of the WebConsole (for example, if a UDM Receiver is connected to the
Hub, ensure the port in the Status option is configured likewise.
As a Class 1 appliance, ensure the device is connected to a main socket outlet with a
protective grounding connection.
