the IR receiver bulb in a position so that it can receive IR signals from your

remote control.

4. Using an RG-6 coaxial cable with BNC connectors (not included), plug one end

into the SDI Input (5) connector on the transmitter, then plug the other end into

the SDI output on your video source device.

5. Plug the included IR Transmitter into the IR Out (4) jack on the transmitter, then

position the IR emitter bulb in a position where it can transmit IR signals to the

video source device.

6. Using an Ethernet cable wired to the TIA/EIA-568B standard, plug one end into

the BitPath AV™ RX (3) jack on the receiver, then plug the other end into the

BitPath AV TX (3) jack on the transmitter.

7. Plug the DC barrel connector on the other AC power adapter into the DC 5V (1)

jack on the receiver, then plug the adapter into a nearby AC power outlet. The

Power LED (1) on the receiver front panel will illuminate.

that you can control the video source device from the remote location.

Congratulations, your BitPath AV™ system is now installed and ready for use!

TROUBLESHOOTING

Q1: The television only shows "waiting for connection" in the bottom right corner.

A1: Verify that the AC adapters for both the transmitter and receiver are plugged in

and that the Power LED (1) on each unit is illuminated. Try swapping out the SDI

cable with a known good one.

Q2: The television displays "Please check the TX input signal".

A2: Verify that the video source device is playing video content. Try swapping out the

SDI cable between the video source device and the transmitter with a known

good one. Try connecting the video source device directly to the television to

verify that it is transmitting video. Verify that the video resolution on the video

source does not exceed the 1080p@60Hz limit of the system.

Q3: The video on the television is unstable.

A3: Press the Reset (2) button on each unit to allow them to reestablish a connection.
