Introduction

Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of
unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video,
audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis. In recent years, we have
redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better!

Getting Started

We recommend that you:

• Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for

possible future shipment.

• Review the contents of this user manual.

Go to www.kramerav.com/downloads/RTBUS-24 to check for up-to-date user manuals,
application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).

Achieving the Best Performance

• Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-performance,

high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor
matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).

• Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils.

• Avoid interference from neighbouring electrical appliances that may adversely influence

signal quality.

• Position your Kramer RTBUS-24 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust.

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be connected to other
equipment that is installed inside a building.
