PowerCage MTP T 15HD RSA and MPT R 15HD RSA SEQ Board Setup Guide

The Extron® PowerCage MTP T 15HD RSA (transmitter) and MPT R 15HD RSA SEQ
(receiver) boards are twisted pair transmitters and receivers in a modular board
format for the PowerCage 1600 enclosure.

Refer to the PowerCage MTP 15HD RSA Series User Guide, and the
PowerCage 1600 Enclosure User Guide, online at www.extron.com.

Installation

1. Select an open slot at the rear, or take out a blank plate or installed board by

loosening the two screws (top and bottom), and lifting it away.

2. Hold the new board with the signal connectors towards you and the LED at

the top. Carefully slide the board into the slot, aligning the two tabs on the
lower front end of the board with the matching ports in the enclosure.
Push it firmly into place.

3. Tighten the screws to secure the board in place. If needed, repeat steps 1

through 3 for other boards.

board is auto-detected. The LED on the board lights green when power is applied.

5. MTP T 15HD RSA board — Connect RGB, HD-YUV, YUV, S-video, or composite

video inputs to the 15-pin HD VGA connector.
MTP R 15HD RSA SEQ board — Connect suitable display devices to the 15-pin HD VGA connector for RGBHV, RGBS,
RGsB, RsGsBs, HD-YUV, YUV, S-video, or composite video output.

6. MTP T 15HD RSA board — Connect an audio input source to the 5-pole captive screw connector. Wire the captive screw

connector as shown below. Use the supplied tie-wrap to secure the audio cable to the connector.

Unbalanced Stereo Input

MTP R 15HD RSA SEQ board — On this board, there is a combined audio and RS-232 output connector. Wire and insert
a 5-pole captive screw connector for mono audio and/or RS-232 serial output. Wire the connector as below.

NOTE: The receiver auto-detects whether the

the signal content accordingly, and
outputs it on the appropriate pins of the
connector.

7. MTP T 15HD RSA board — Connect the transmitter to a suitable MTP receiver via

MTP R 15HD RSA SEQ board — Connect the twisted pair cable from the transmitter
to the RJ-45 input connector.

NOTE: Terminate the twisted pair cable as shown right, using the same

standard (TIA 568A or TIA 568B) at both ends.

8. MTP T 15HD RSA only — Connect to the 3-pole captive screw connector

for bi- or unidirectional RS-232 communication. The RS-232 function is only available by
setting the DIP switch on the board from audio to RS-232 communication. The default
is audio.

PowerCage MTP T 15HD RSA and MTP R 15HD RSA SEQ Setup Guide, cont’d

Board Setup and Operation

On the MTP T 15HD RSA board there are two DIP switches (switch #1 is for refresh rate, switch #2 is for audio/RS-232), and a
16-position rotary encoder for EDID selection.
The default settings are: DIP switch #1 60 Hz (down), DIP switch #2 audio (down), EDID encoder 1024x768 (position 2).

On the MTP R 15HD RSA SEQ board there are four active DIP switches. They are: switch #1 = Horizontal sync, switch #2 =
Vertical sync, switch 3 = RS-232 communication, switch #4 = Chroma routing, Switches 5 and 6 are not used.

The default settings are: DIP switch #1 H– (down), DIP switch #2 V– (down), DIP switch #3 unidirectional RS-232 (down),
DIP switch #4 is MTP S-video (down), DIP switch #5 and #6 not used (down)

Access to the DIP switches and encoder is via a cut-out in the cover. Either change the settings before installation, or remove
the board from enclosure to access the switches. See below for all DIP switch and EDID settings.

Changing the MPT T 15HD RSA Board Settings

1. Flip the DIP switches to the setting required.

2. Using a small screwdriver, rotate the encoder pointer to the number or letter corresponding to the resolution required.

Skew, Level, and Peaking Adjustments

On the rear panel of the MTP R 15HD RAS SEQ board are
three colored LEDs, a recessed select button, and an Adjust
knob. These work in conjunction to allow the user to make
adjustments to image skew delay, level, and peaking.
Referring to the table at right, press the select button as
desired. Rotate the Adjust knob to adjust the selected
function while monitoring the displayed image.

Refer to the Powercage MTP 15HD RSA Series User Guide for details about skew delay, level, and peaking.
