Installation
- Determine the location where the MVE-AH1E4-42NQ units will be installed as well as how much Cat6 cable will be necessary.
- Connect the transmitter to the HDMI output of the source device.
- Connect the Cat6 cables to both the receiver and transmitter units.
NOTE: For maximum range use Cat6 cable. - Connect the receiver to the HDMI input of the display device.
- Connect the 12VDC adapter to the transmitter.
- Determine which device, if any, will be controlled by the remote control. Install the IR transmitter to the IR Out port, pointing the IR transmitter at the device to be controlled. Install the IR receiver to the IR In port of the other device, pointing the IR receiver to where the remote control will be. Point the remote control at the IR receiver when in use.
- Switch on the HDMI source and display to verify that the system is functioning properly.
IR
The MVE-AH1E4-42NQ supports IR pass-through signals.
This allows for remote operation of the source device from the display location. The MVE-AH1E4-42NQ IR Transmitterunit and IR Receiver unit support signals from 30~60 kHz.
Sample Application
Troubleshooting
HDMI device does not function correctly
- Use T-568B wiring standard
- Make sure the extender is powered
- Make sure the source and the display are powered
- Test the Cat6 cable between the receiver and transmitter and make sure it is functional
- Make sure that there are no problems with the HDMI source, HDMI cables, or HDMI display by plugging the source directly into the display using an HDMI cable
Screen flickering or brief image loss
- Use a higher grade of twisted pair category cable (Cat6 is recommended)
- Switch the source device to a lower HDMI output (i.e., 4K@30Hz to 1080p)
- Restart the handshake process by powering everything down then powering up and connecting each device in succession starting with the HDMI source
