Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the LINDY VGA & Audio Cat.5e Extender. This device allows a VGA video signal and
Audio (mono) to be transmitted up to a distance of 300m using high quality Cat.5e solid core cable. An optional skew
compensation unit (like LINDY No. 32766) can be used to correct colour shadows on the display caused by different
lengths of RGB signal transmission over the twisted pairs in the Cat.5e cable.

Adjusting the Remote Monitor Picture Quality

Use the two dials on the remote unit labelled “Gain” and “Peak” to adjust the remote picture quality.

Gain adjusts the brightness. Peak adjusts the sharpness to fit the user requirement.

If you find coloured horizontal shadows as shown in the example below you can remove them with a skew
compensation unit like LINDY no. 32766. It compensates for different lengths of the RGB related twisted pairs
in the Cat.5e cable and allows for a sharp video as shown below on the right side. Please find further details
in the product description of the skew compensation unit.

If this cannot compensate your video problem please use a higher quality Cat.6 cable.

Whenever required you may contact LINDY technical support teams for help.
