2. INTRODUCTION
The Avenview VGA-C5A-SET lets you extend VGA (WUXGA) to cover the distance up to 300m (1,000ft).
with only one cost effective CAT-5e cable, The system consists of Transmitter (VGA-C5A-S) and Receiver
(VGA-C5A-R). With built-in EQ and GAIN control, the transmission path can be adjusted to adapt the cable
quality and video bandwidth. Furthermore, the VGA RGB delay control [de-skew] function provides the
compensation among R, G, B signals due to long transmission or through normal UTP cable. Analog stereo
audio signals can be sent along with high quality VGA signal over long distance UTP cable.
- Supports up to WUXGA (1920x1200@60) to 300m (1,000ft)
- Supports Analog Stereo Audio and S/PDIF Digital Audio
- Local VGA output
- Adjustable equalization and gain control on Receiver unit
- De-skew compensation available for RGB delay control
- Wall mounting case for better fixedness

5. GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE SOLUTION
NO IMAGE
Check if connection to the source and the display are
correct.
Ensure that display device supports the resolution that is
being output.
SCREEN DEFECTS APPEAR
This product supports up to WUXGA (1920x1200)
resolution.
Check the VGA and CAT5 connection
If outputting from a PC. Check the maximum resolution
range of the graphics card.
1. If a blurred video is seen or even worse, not displayed at all, try to adjust the EQ and Gain rotary
controls to improve the cable skew. GAIN rotary controls are designed for gain control, and EQ
rotary controls are designed for equalizing the wave form of the receiving video signal. It is
suggested to begin with adjusting the rotary control of EQ to get the input video displayed first,
and then the GAIN according to the video you see on the screen.
2. RGB delay control [De-skew] offers the flexible functionality to allow skew compensation among
VGA R, G, B signals due to long transmission or thru low quality cable. By adjusting the rotary
switch to choose R, G or B color channel at first, then use the push buttons to increase or decrease
the delay in the corresponding color channel. There are totally 31 steps, each step with 2ns
difference, for adjusting the delay between each color individually. Then the graphics quality can
be further assured.
