Hardware recommendations
At tvONE, we design our products to the highest quality standards. To get the best results from our products, we recommend that you use the best quality connectors, cables, and adapters. Consider the points below when choosing accessories and positioning equipment.
• For best results with HDMI/DVI, use cables under 15 m long, or shorter if you use connection adapters. If you need to place
your products more than 15 m apart, use a signal extender.
See our range of signal extenders at tvone.com/signal-extension-systems.
• For best results with HDMI, use High Speed or Premium High Speed HDMI cables.
• In industrial environments, use shielded Ethernet cables.
Shielded Ethernet cables are often marked F/UTP or FTP. This is relevant when using HDBaseT modules for Cat 6 and AVIP module for USB.
• Use good quality USB drives compatible with USB 3.0.
Planning and installing
Video tearing
Using a mixture of resolutions can cause video tearing. For best results, make sure all your sources and display use the same frame rate.
Display
• What size is the display?
• What is the native resolution of the display?
• Do you need a display that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)?
• Do you need a projector?
Sources or inputs
• What types of source do you need?
• What is the native resolution of each source?
• What is the frame rate of each source?
• Will the sources be available at all times that the CORIOview is operating?
• Is there any switching or processing before the source reaches your CORIOview?
Installing display hardware
Once you have planned and collected your hardware, you can set it up. First, install your displays and place your sources. Then connect your displays to your output modules and your sources to your input modules.
Who can do this?
Anyone can do this task, but we recommend that you consult a qualified AV installer.
Placing your CORIOview and display
When you decide where to place your hardware, consider these points:
• Availability of electrical outlets
• Distance from CORIOview to sources and display
For best results, use cables under 15 m long, or shorter if you use connection adapters. If you need to place your CORIOview more than 15 m away from your video wall or sources, use a signal extender.
Read about our adapters on page 11.
See our range of signal extenders at tvone.com.
• Installation environment
In industrial environments, use shielded Ethernet cables.
Position your displays and sources
1. Position your sources. Follow the advice above when you choose where to put your sources.
2. Connect your display or projector to the output module of your CORIOview.
3. Connect your sources to the input modules of your CORIOview.
Keep a note of which source is connected to which port. You can use this information later when you name inputs and outputs in CORIOgrapher.
4. Connect your CORIOview to your network. If you want to control your CORIOview with a serial controller, connect a serial
controller.
5. Connect your CORIOview to an electrical outlet and power on.
You can now create your video wall in CORIOgrapher.
