Disclaimer

Before installation, please check the following settings of your source(s) and TV/monitor(s)

• Set display to 60 Hz. Double-check factory settings, as default can be set to a lower frequency (Hz) than advertised.
• Ensure the input setting of your monitor is set at HDMI 2.0. Some displays may have default settings at HDMI 1.4.
• Verify your monitor has the HDR feature enabled. Some displays may have this feature disabled as a factory setting.
• Check if the Ultra HD (UHD) Deep Color setting is enabled on your TV/monitor. Confirm with your TV/monitor manufacturer which HDMI ports support UHD Deep Color.
• Check the USB/IR DIP switch, as the default setting is set to IR. Note: To connect a local monitor to your installation, the UHD Deep Color setting may need to be disabled on your local TV/monitor (depending on make/model) to achieve 4K @ 60 Hz resolution.

• If necessary, use the Equalization control on the remote/repeater unit(s) and remote receiver unit to adjust the video image.
• The maximum number of daisy-chain layers is four for a total distance of 920 ft., but the distance can be extended to 1,090 ft. when a B127A-010-H signal booster is used. See the B127A-010-H product features for details.
• An improper Equalization setting can cause the monitor not to display a picture at all. Try each Equalization setting until an acceptable picture is displayed.

USB/IR/Toslink Controls

The extender kit provides the following functional controls

• USB 1.1 – One Micro-USB input at the transmitter, dual USB-A outputs at the receiver
• Bi-Directional IR – Dual 3.5 mm jacks at both the transmitter and receiver
• Toslink output at receiver and transceiver
• (Optional) Connect the included IR-OUT cable to the transmitter unit’s IR-OUT port. Place the sensor on the IR-OUT cable in an unobstructed area within a clear view of the device being controlled. Then connect the included IR-IN cable to the receiver unit’s IR-IN port. The IR-IN cable will communicate the desired command via the transmitter’s IR-OUT cable.
•  The IR-OUT cable receives the signal from the remote control and sends it to the device being controlled (e.g. Blu-ray player, etc.). (Optional) With a user-supplied USB Micro-B cable (such as Tripp Lite U050-XXX Series USB cable), connect to the transmitter’s Micro-B port. Then connect a keyboard and mouse to the available USB-A ports on the receiver unit.
• (Optional) Using a Toslink cable (such as Tripp Lite A102-XXM Series cables), connect the Toslink cable to a set of speakers, an audio receiver, or other audio system equipped with Toslink digital outputs.
