OVERVIEW
System Overview
The CrystalView Extreme is a very versatile and flexible system that can be
easily and quickly installed. You can position your computer anywhere on
your LAN and access it over your network from anywher e you insta ll the
matched Receiver. The Transmitter unit will locate the Receiver unit within
the network by the MAC address. Once found, you will have full control of
the computer over your LAN. The CrystalView Extreme system supports HD
video and USB 1.1 and 2.0. You can control and use a USB keyboard, USB
mouse, webcam, flash drive, USB speakers, microphone and other
compatible USB devices.
The CrystalView Extreme can also be used as a KVM extender. The
transmitter unit can be directly connected to the receiver unit via standard
CATx cable. If you install the CrystalView Extreme units in a point-to-point
configuration and not through a network, the maximum CAT5 cable length in
this configuration is 330 feet (100m).
The versatility of the CrystalView Extreme makes it ideal for security,
medical, signage, and industrial applications where access to the computer
is over your LAN. Multiple systems can be connected to your LAN and all
accessed simultaneously with no interference (up to 30 systems on a 1Gbps
LAN).
The Receiver unit has 3 USB Type A connectors. These are usually
connected to a USB mouse, USB keyboard, and a USB HUB. The
CrystalView Extreme supports up to 13 USB devices and 4 HUB levels at
USB speeds up to 480 Mb/s.
The CrystalView Extreme can be installed using your existing network
cabling or the Transmitter can be directly connected to the Receiver unit
using industry standard CAT5 or better cable for a point-to-point connection.

INSTALLATION
System Installation
Before installing the CrystalView Extreme, pre-plan the layout of the
computer, the Transmitter, the Receiver, and the equipment that will be
connected to the Receiver. The Transmitter and Receiver units should be in
a location that is easily accessible to your corporate LAN ports.
The Transmitter and Receiver units communicate over your LAN using the
assigned MAC address. Ensure that your corporate LAN will allow the MAC
addresses to properly route over the network.
The CrystalView Extreme can also be connected in a “Point-To-Point”
configuration. This is easily done by connecting a CAT5* cable (330 ft /
100m) directly from the Transmitter’s RJ45 port to the Receiver’s RJ45 port.
Figure 2. Typical Installation
Transmitter installation
(Refer to Figure 2)
1. Locate the Transmitter unit near the computer.
2. Connect the supplied USB Type A/B cable to the Transmitter unit’s USB
Type B port and to an available USB (1.1 or 2.0) Type A port on the
computer.
3. Connect the supplied DVI cable to the Transmitter unit’s DVI-D port and
to the DVI port on the computer.
4. Connect a CAT5* cable (not supplied) from the Transmitter’s RJ45 port
to a corporate LAN (RJ45) connector.
5. Connect the supplied 5V, 3A power adapter to an AC outlet and to the
Transmitter’s power port.
8 CrystalView Extreme Installation and Operations Manual
Page 13
Receiver installation
(Refer to Figure 2)
1. Locate the Receiver unit near the monitor and USB devices.
2. Connect a DVI monitor cable to the DVI-D out connector on the
Receiver’s rear panel.
3. Connect your USB and Audio devices to the 3 USB Type A ports on the
front panel of the Receiver. Normally these USB ports are connected to
a USB keyboard, USB mouse, and a USB Hub.
4. Connect a CAT5* cable (not supplied) from the Receiver’s RJ45 port to a
corporate LAN (RJ45) connector.
5. Connect the supplied 24V, 1A power adapter to an AC outlet and to the
Receiver’s power port.
* CAT5 cable – It is recommended that only CAT5 or better, UTP cabling be
used to connect the Transmitter and Receiver units to the
corporate LAN and through the network. The CAT5 cabling
must have straight-thr o ugh conduc tor s with no cros sov er s
and terminated with 8 conductor RJ45 connectors at each
end. The maximum CAT5 cable length for a point-to-point
configuration is 330 feet (100 meters).
Installation Verification
The Status, Link, Video, and USB LEDs on the Transmitter and Receiver
units will provide information regarding the installation, cabling, video, and
other items. Verify that the LEDs are registering properly.
(Refer to Table 2 and Table 3)
If the Link LED is off, your network may not allow the CrystalView Extreme
to pass the MAC address of the units through your network. Check this with
your network administrator. It could also mean that the cabling is not
installed or connected properly or the cabling is defective.
The Status LED should be solid green. If it is blinking the system is not
ready.
Verify that none of the LEDs are amber. This indicates that there is a
problem with the Video or USB.
If your computer operating system is Windows XP, Vista, or Windows 7,
confirm that the CMEDIA Audio Device has been installed correctly. To
check this, open the Device Manager and expand the “Universal Serial Bus
Controller” section by clicking on the + sign. If the CMEDIA device has been
installed correctly you will see “USB PNP Audio Device” in the listing of
installed USB devices.
CrystalView Extreme Installation and Operations Manual 9
Page 14
Connecting USB Devices
Up to 13 USB 1.1 or 2.0 devices can be connected to the Receiver unit
using USB Hubs. Normally the three USB Type A connectors on the
Receiver are connected to a USB Keyboard, USB mouse, and a USB Hub.
Installing your USB devices is no different than installing them when
connected to a computer.
1. Install the USB device according to the manufactures procedure and
any required software to operate the USB device
2. Connect the USB device to the Receiver’s USB ports or a HUB port
3. Verify that the operating system has recognized the USB device and, if
needed, installed the proper drivers to operate the USB device
4. Test the USB device
Each USB Type A port on the Receiver unit can supply up to 500ma to a
USB device or USB Hub. When connecting additional USB devices through
a USB Hub, consider the total current needed to operate all of the USB
devices. If the total power is greater than 500ma, use a powered Hub to
supplement the power to the devices.
The CrystalView Extreme is compatible with a wide variety or graphic cards,
monitors, USB devices, and operating systems. See Appendix B for a list of
tested devices.
System Operation
The operation of the CrystalView Extreme is no different than operating your
computer with your keyboard, monitor, mouse, and USB devices directly
connected to it. The only difference is the computer can be located
anywhere on your network. Applications can be executed, files opened,
edited, and saved, upgrades can be performed and normal system
operations can be performed as if you were directly connected to your
computer.

TROUBLESHOOTING
System Troubleshooting
All LEDs on the Transmitter or Receiver are off
Check the DC power adapter connection to the Unit
Verify there is power at the power source
Link LED on the Transmitter and Receiver are off
Check the CAT5 Link connections on the Computer, Transmitter,
Receiver, and the network information outlets
Install a short CAT5 patch cable directly from the Transmitter to the
Receiver unit. If the Link LEDs illuminate a solid green, this indicates
that the network cabling is defective or the LAN needs to be configured
to allow the units to communicate over the network.
USB LED on the Transmitter is amber, Link LED is on
Transmitter not properly connected to the computer
Host computer is not powered on or does not support USB Hubs
USB cable defective
1. Disconnect all USB devices from the Receiver unit

Appendix C – Pairing Transmitter and Receiver
The CrystalView Extreme Transmitter and Receiver are paired at the factory
to allow communication between them over your LAN. No additional
configuration is normally needed. If the Transmitter or Receiver unit needs
to be paired to another Transmitter or Receiver, perform the below steps to
pair the Transmitter and Receiver units.
1. Disconnect the Transmitter from the host computer and network.
2. Disconnect the Receiver from the network.
3. Hold the pair button on the front panel of the Transmitter down
continuously for 10 seconds. This will clear the MAC address and
halt operations for the Transmitter. The Link LED will be solid
