3 Overview

The high-performance VP-210K is a line amplifier for UXGA ^1 computer graphics signals that provides controls to compensate for signal losses inherent in long cable runs.

In particular, the VP-210K UXGA Line Amplifier features:

• Video bandwidth of 350MHz, ensuring that it remains transparent for all resolutions
• HDTV compatibility
• Separate controls for output level and cable equalization, and independent input signal termination for red, green and blue
• A looping input
• KR-ISPTM advanced sync processing that ensures compatibility with a wide range of computers (even if the sync level is too low) by restoring the sync signal waveform

To achieve the best performance:

- Use only good quality connection cables ^2 to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).

- Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer VP-210K away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Caution - No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.

Warning - Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with this unit ^3 .

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

5 Connecting the VP-210K UXGA Line Amplifier

To connect your VP-210K UXGA Line Amplifier, as shown in the example in Figure 2, do the following ^1 :

1. Connect a computer graphics source (for example, a computer) to the INPUT 15-pin HD (F) connector.
2. Connect the OUTPUT 15-pin HD (F) connector to an acceptor (for example, a projector).
3. Connect the LOOP 15-pin HD (F) connector to an acceptor (for example, a local display).
4. Connect the 5V DC power adapter to the 5V DC socket and connect the transformer to the mains electricity (not illustrated in Figure 2).
5. Adjust the video output signal level and/or cable compensation equalization level as needed.
6. Set the DIP-switches as follows:

- If no terminal is attached to the LOOP connector, set the switches down to 75Ω TERM

- If a terminal is attached to the LOOP connector, set the switches up to HI-Z
