CRYSTALVIEW INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL
9
The CrystalView has been tested with all major makes of CAT-5
cables, including BICC-VERO
, Mohawk
and AT&T
. CrystalView
has also been tested on CAT-3 cable and on pairs within a 25-pair
UTP trunk cable.
The video performance will vary with different cable types. For the
best performance and video quality, Rose Electronics recommends
that only CAT-5 “Solid Core” cable be used.
Serial cable
To connect the Local Unit to the CPUs DB9 serial port, use a
standard DB9MF serial 1:1 (DTE-DCE) cable. The Remote Units
“SERIAL” port is wired as DTE (the same as the CPUs serial port).
To connect a serial printer or other DTE devices to the Remote Unit,
you will need a Null-modem (crossover) cable between the Remote
Unit and the printer. Select Xon/Xoff software flow control on the
printer and PC.
Audio cable
CrystalView models with the audio option are configured with two
3.5mm stereo audio jacks on both the Local and Remote Unit.
Standard 3.5mm stereo audio cables are used to connect between
the Local Units “LINE IN” connector and a sound card’s “LINE OUT”
connector. The Remote Units “LINE OUT” connects to a pair of
computer speakers.
(Rose Electronics cable part number CAB-SPMMnn).
Maximum audio cable length is 6 feet.
