Extending cables 11

Extending cables

Cat 7 cables

Cat 7 cables should never be extended. They must be run in the appropriate length from product to product, from wall outlet to distribution frame
or from product to wall outlet.

HDMI cables

HDMI cables may be used up to 10 m / 33 ft. When longer HDMI cables are needed they must be of the active type or an HDMI extender may be
used (e.g. the recommended solution from Atlona; see page 14 and page 16.

CAN bus cable for Floor Stand

The CAN bus cable for the oor stand with BeoVision 12-65 is 9.8 m / 32.2 ft long. If the cable between the BeoVision 12-65 and the BeoSystem
4 is longer, the CAN bus cable can be cut at an appropriate place, and extended by applying Network Link Product Cable; see page 61, (Cat 7
cable). The cables are assembled by two Power Link Junction Boxes (Bang & Olufsen Part No. 3132055).

The cabling is explained and illustrated in the following two scenarios:

- Hidden installation via wall outlet to the BeoSystem 4 placed in the Technical Room or similar cabinet, see page 12. The cables are connected
using the Power Link Junction Boxes.

- Visible installation using Cat 7. Cables are connected using the Power Link Junction Boxes, and run directly to the BeoSystem 4, see page 13.
Note: The maximum length of the Cat 7 cable, used to extend the 9.8 m/32.2 ft CAN bus cable, is 50 m/164 ft .
Note: To ensure correct quality of the signal and as little signal loss as possible, two wires of the Cat 7 cable is used per wire in the CAN cable; see
example page 11.

Screen measurement 20

Screen measurement

The easiest way to do the screen measurement is by having the BeoSystem 4 within 1.8 m/6 ft distance from the BeoVision 12-65 if at all possible.
If this is not possible, see “Distance between BeoSystem 4 and BeoVision 12-65” below.

Screen measurement - introduction

The BeoSystem 4 requires some measurements to be made to match it to the BeoVision display it is connected to. These measurements consist of

two measurement sequences:

- MEASURE SCREEN: a measurement of the colour reproduction of the BeoVision display.

- MEASURE LIGHT SENSOR: a measurement of the ambient light sensor of the BeoVision display.

Prerequisite

The measurement involves the use of a reference measurement device, taken into use during installation by the installer. The reference
measurement device is part of the Calibration kit BeoSystem 4; Bang & Olufsen Part No. 3376493.
If the screen measurement is not made, the following text will be shown each time the television is switched On:

SCREEN NOT MEASURED
PLEASE CONTACT YOUR INSTALLER

Distance between BeoSystem 4 and BeoVision 12-65

Due to the length of the cable of the measurement device the distance between the BeoVision 12-65 and the BeoSystem 4 must be no more than

1.8 m/6 ft.
If the distance is longer, a USB extension cable must be used so that the measurement device can be connected to the USB socket of the
BeoSystem 4. When USB extension cables longer than 5 m/16 ft are needed, they must be USB Active Extension Cables.

Initiating the Screen Measurement

Automatically

- Insert the USB plug of the measurement device into the USB socket of the BeoSystem 4. The screen measurement function is then presented
automatically. The following text is shown as acknowledgement: MEASUREMENT DEVICE DETECTED, and one of the following two actions can

be chosen followed by pressing the Centre button:

- DO NOTHING: the system reverts to presenting the selected source.

- PERFORM MEASUREMENT: see Screen measurement page 21.

Via Customer Service Menu

In case the screen measurement menu does not show automatically or the measurement is to be initiated manually do the following to get to the
screen measurement menu. It is a prerequisite that the USB plug of the measurement device is inserted into the USB socket of the BeoSystem 4.

- On the remote control press MENU > SETUP and press the Red button and within 3 seconds press the Centre button.

- Select PICTURE ADJUSTMENT > SCREEN MEASUREMENT.

- Select SCREEN MEASUREMENT and press the Centre button.

Screen measurement 21

Screen measurement - start menu

The following is a step-by-step instruction of the Screen measurement cycle.

- Initiate the screen measurement cycle automatically or via the Customer Service menu; see page 20.

Start measurement

- Follow the instructions from the previous page:

- Turn the diffuser away from the lens; see illustration.

- Place the elastic strap around the BeoVision 12-65 and the measurement

device as shown in the illustration. The elastic strap must be tightened using
the plastic buckle.

- Make sure that the measurement device is pressed rmly and perpendicularly

to the screen surface, minimising the inuence of the ambient light.

- Place the measurement device so that the lens is inside the green area on

the screen and it is kept xed in a steady position by the elastic strap.

The START MEASUREMENT function will rst be highlighted when the lens

is in a proper position.

- Press the Centre button to start the measurement.

The measurement sequence measures various intensities of white and a

number of colours.

Note: The measurement sequence takes up to 4 minutes. Do not touch the

measurement device during this period!

When completed the following text is shown in the lower right corner of the

screen:

SCREEN MEASUREMENT PERFORMED SUCCESSFULLY
The sequence returns to the SCREEN MEASUREMENT menu with the

MEASURE LIGHT SENSOR highlighted.

In case the measurement fails an error message will be shown.
In that case, check and reposition the measurement device assuring it is pressed
rmly and perpendicularly to the screen and make sure that the lighting
conditions in the room are as dark as possible. After this the above
measurement must be made again.

Ambient light condition

Perform the screen measurements in lighting conditions as bright as possible, but without light sources shining directly onto the light sensor of the
BeoVision 12-65 as well as the light sensor of the reference measurement device.
Also the light sensor of the BeoVision 12-65 as well as the light sensor of the measurement device should not point towards window or any light
source.
The illuminance (light intensity) should be between 800 and 1000 lux. Unfortunatly there is no read out of the illuminance. As a rule of thumb it is
dim the light, sufcient for reading text on a piece of paper.
