INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

CrystalView EX HDMI Manual 5

System Installation

Prior to installing the CrystalView EX HDMI, prepare the layout of the computer, the Transmitter, the Receiver,

and the equipment that will be connected to the Receiver. The Transmitter and Receiver units should be in

locations that are easily accessible. The CAT5e cable should be routed away from equipment or environments

that can cause interference with the data transmission between the Transmitter and Receiver.

The CrystalView EX HDMI is installed in a “Point-To-Point” configuration. This is done by connecting a CATx

cable (up to 330 ft / 100m) directly from the Transmitter’s RJ45 port to the Receiver’s RJ45 port.

The completed installation will appear as in the figure below.

Figure 5. CrystalView EX HDMI Installation

Transmitter Installation

3. Locate the Transmitter unit near the computer.

4. Connect the supplied USB Type A/B cable to the Transmitter unit’s USB Type B port and to an

available USB Type A port (1.1 or 2.0) on the computer.

5. Connect the supplied HDMI cable to the Transmitter unit’s HDMI port and to the HDMI video port on the

computer

6. Connect a CATx cable (not supplied) from the Transmitter’s RJ45 port to the Receiver’s (RJ45)

connector.

7. Connect the supplied 5V power adapter to an AC outlet and to the Transmitter’s power port.

CrystalView EX HDMI Manual 6

Receiver Installation

1. Locate the Receiver unit near the monitor and USB devices.

2. Using a HDMI cable, connect a HDMI monitor to the HDMI out connector on the Receiver’s rear panel.

3. Connect USB devices to the 3 USB Type A ports on the rear panel of the Receiver. Normally these

USB ports are connected to a USB keyboard, USB mouse, and a USB Hub.

4. Connect the CATx cable (not supplied) from the Transmitter’s RJ45 port to the Receiver’s RJ45

connector.

5. Connect the supplied 5V power adapter to an AC outlet and to the Receiver’s power port.

Note: CATx cable – It is recommended that only solid-core CAT5e or better, UTP/STP cabling be used to

connect the Transmitter and Receiver units together. The CAT5e cabling must have straight-through

conductors with no crossovers and terminated with 8 conductor RJ45 connectors at each end. The maximum

CATx cable length is 330 feet (100 meters).

Installation Verification

The Power, Link, Video, and USB LEDs on the Transmitter and Receiver units will provide information

regarding the installation, cabling, video, and other items. Verify that the LEDs are registering properly as

shown in Table 2.

If the Link LED is off, the CATx cable between the Transmitter and Receiver is not properly connected.

The Power LED should be solid green. If it is off, the system is not powered properly.

Windows users can confirm that the USB functionality of CrystalView EX HDMI by opening Device Manager.

Expand the entry for Universal Serial Bus controllers by clicking the “ + “ sign. If the EX HDMI has been

installed correctly, you should find it listed as a “generic hub”.

OS X users can open the System Profiler to confirm that CrystalView EX HDMI USB has been installed

correctly. In the left hand column under Hardware, select “USB” and inspect the right hand panel. If the EX

HDMI has been installed correctly, you should find it listed as a “Hub” under the USB High-Speed Bus/USB

Bus.

Connecting USB Devices

USB hubs connected to the Receiver unit allow more USB 1.1 and 2.0 equipment to be connected, up to a

maximum of 30 USB devices. Normally the three USB Type A connectors on the Receiver are connected to a

USB Keyboard, USB mouse, and a USB hub. Installing your USB devices is no different than installing them

directly to a computer’s USB port.

1. Install any software required to operate the USB device according to the manufacturer’s instructions

2. Connect the USB device to the Receiver’s USB ports or to a hub connected to the Receiver

3. Verify that the operating system has recognized the USB device and installed any drivers needed to

operate the USB device

4. Test the USB device

Each USB Type A port on the Receiver unit can supply up to 500ma to a USB device or USB hub. When

connecting additional USB devices through a USB hub, consider the total current needed to operate the hub

and all the devices connected to it. If the total power requirement is greater than 500ma, use a self-powered

hub.

The CrystalView EX HDMI is compatible with a wide variety or graphic cards, monitors, USB devices, and

operating systems.
