Frequently Asked Questions - MTP 1500RL 15HD A SEQ Extron

What video formats does the MTP 1500RL support?
The MTP 1500RL supports RGB, component video (bi-level or tri-level sync), S-video, and composite video up to UXGA and 1080p HD.
What is the maximum transmission distance?
Maximum distance is up to 1500 feet (457 m) for most resolutions when using Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable with pre-peak enabled. Distances vary based on resolution and cable type.
How do I adjust skew delay on the SEQ model?
Press and hold the Select button for 3 seconds to zero all skew delays. Then press to cycle through Red, Green, and Blue LEDs, and rotate the Adjust control clockwise to delay the left-shifted color until convergence is achieved. Maximum delay is 62 ns in 2 ns steps.
How do I set the DIP switches for the output format?
Use the rear panel DIP switches. For RGBHV, set CSync and SOG down, Video down. For RGBS, set CSync up, SOG down, Video down. For RGsB, set CSync down, SOG up, Video down. For component, S-video, or composite, set SOG down, Video up, and ensure input matches.
What power supply does the MTP 1500RL require?
The receiver uses an external 12 VDC, 1 A power supply (included) that accepts 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz input. Wire the 2-pole captive screw connector observing polarity.
Can I daisy chain multiple MTP 1500RL receivers?
Yes, up to 8 receivers can be daisy-chained using the buffered RJ-45 output connector. The last receiver in the chain must have the End Unit DIP switch set to up.
What type of twisted pair cable should I use?
Use Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable for best performance, terminated to TIA/EIA T568A standard. Alternatively, CAT 5 STP, UTP, or FTP cable can be used, but STP is required for FCC Class A compliance.
How do I mount the MTP 1500RL?
The half-rack width unit can be placed on a tabletop with included rubber feet, mounted in a rack using optional kits (e.g., RSB 129), or under a desk. Follow UL rack-mounting guidelines for airflow and loading.
What is the difference between the SEQ and non-SEQ models?
The SEQ model includes skew delay compensation for red, green, and blue signals (up to 62 ns) via front panel controls. The non-SEQ model lacks this feature and may require an external SEQ 100 15HD Skew Equalizer if needed.
How do I adjust peaking and level?
Use the front panel Peaking and Level knobs while viewing the displayed image. Start with minimal settings and increase as needed. For best results, set gain so a white field is +0.7 V from ground, and adjust peaking using a high-frequency pattern to equalize low and high frequency levels.

About the MTP 1500RL 15HD A Series Receivers

The Extron MTP 1500RL 15HD A SEQ and MTP 1500RL 15HD A receivers are for long distance distribution of RGB, component (bi-level or tri-level sync), S-video, or composite video signals and audio over twisted pair cables.

The MTP 1500RL 15HD A series is a half rack size line of basic twisted pair receivers that are fully compatible with all MTP transmitters, distribution amplifiers, matrix switchers and associated video accessories. When used with any of the Extron MTP transmitter models, the video can be transmitted over an extended distance or over current standard distances.

The MTP 1500RL 15HD A models receive signals up to UXGA, HD component video (including 1080p), standard component, S-video, bi-level or tri-level component video, and high resolution RGB video) on an RJ-45 connector over Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable, or over Category (CAT) 5 shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable.

The receiver outputs multiple RGB formats, composite video, S-video and component video on the 15-pin HD connector, according to the current DIP switch settings.

NOTE: The MTP 1500RL 15HD series of receivers cannot be used with VTT or TP transmitters.

The receivers ship with external desktop 12 V, 1 A power supplies that accept 100 to 240 VAC, 50 Hz to 60 Hz input.

TP Cable Advantages

Twisted pair cable is much smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial cable. These TP products make cable runs simpler and less cumbersome, and termination with RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical.

Transmission Distance

The maximum distance is determined by the frequency and resolution of the signal transmitted. The table below specifies the maximum transmission distances and transmitter Pre-peak switch positions using Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable or UTP CAT cable, terminated with RJ-45 connectors.

Video format Pre-peak off Pre-peak on Maximum distance (feet)

1440x960 <1300 >1400 1500
1440x1050 <1300 >1400 1500
1600x1200 <1300 >1400 1500
1920x1200 <1000 >1100 1200
2048x1080 <1000 >1100 1200
720p <1300 >1400 1500
1080i <1300 >1400 1500
1080p <1300 >1400 1500

NOTE: The transmitter and receiver are designed for and perform best with Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable terminated in accordance with the TIA/EIA T568A standard. CAT 5 cables are acceptable but less preferable. Extron also recommends the use of preterminated and tested cables. Cables terminated on site should be tested before use to ensure that they comply with Category 5 specifications.

Figure 6. MTP receiver series front panels

Power LED — Indicates power is applied to the receiver.
B Level control — Alters the video output voltage to affect the brightness of the displayed image. Adjust the knob while viewing the displayed image to set the level and boost that provides the best picture quality. See Peaking and Level Adjustment on the next page for details.
Peaking control — Affects the sharpness of a picture. Increased peaking can compensate for mid- and high-frequency detail loss from low bandwidth system components or capacitance in long cables.

Adjust this control while viewing the displayed image to obtain the optimum picture sharpness. The LED lights red when at the minimum (zero) and maximum (100%) peaking settings. See Peaking and Level Adjustment for details.

NOTE: To avoid possible video loss due to errors in the format detection, the user should always start with minimal peaking and level, then only increase values as required.

D Select button (SEQ receiver only, see the previous page) — This recessed button selects the red, green, or blue video signal to adjust and resets all three video signals to a skew delay of zero nanoseconds.

Use a Tweeker to press and release this button to cycle and select the red, green, or blue video signal to adjust. The selected signal is indicated by the Red, Green, and Blue LEDs (E).

NOTE: The SEQ receiver automatically saves the setting for the video signal that is being deselected when this button is pushed or when the selection times out after 10 seconds.

Press and hold the button in for approximately 3 seconds to zero the skew delay for red, green, and blue. The Red, Green, and Blue LEDS (E) all turn off. Release the button.

E R(ed), G(reen), and B(lue) LEDs (SEQ receiver only) — These indicate the video signal that is selected by the Select button (b) for skew adjustment using the Adjust control (F). The LED for the selected color flashes when the skew compensation for that color's video signal has reached the minimum or maximum limit.

F Adjust skew control (SEQ receiver only) — This control delays the selected red, green, or blue video signal by up to a maximum of 62 nanoseconds (ns), in 2 ns incremental steps. Rotate the control counterclockwise to reduce the delay or clockwise to increase the delay. See Skew Delay Compensation on the next page for details.

NOTE: The movement of the Adjust control is smooth; it does not have mechanical steps or high- and low-limit stops.

Watch the displayed image to observe the steps of delay.

For best performance the skew of the most delayed signal should be set to 0 ns (min.) and the other two signals adjusted to meet it.

Peaking and Level Adjustment

For best performance and video format detection, the equalization of the MTP receiver should be adjusted properly.

To achieve this do the following:

  1. Terminate the green video signal output with a 75 ohm resistance, and measure the video signal.

NOTE: Gain adjustment should be set so that a white field video signal is +0.7 volts from the ground level.

Peaking adjustment should be set using the highest frequency video format signal for the system in RGB, component video, or S-video.

  1. Using an alternative black/white pattern, adjust the peaking so that the video signal matches that of the white field video. This equalizes both the low frequency (white field) and the high frequency (alternating black/white field) to the same video level for best results. Do not over-peak the signal.

Skew Delay Compensation

CAT cable can lead to registration errors between the red, green, and blue video signals. Pair skew can be measured with test equipment or identified by viewing a crosshatch test pattern with a critical eye to determine if either the red, green, or blue video image leads (appears to the left of) the other two video images.

NOTE: Unless the TP cable is changed, the skew adjustment should only need to be made once, during installation..

SEQ receiver skew compensation

The SEQ receiver has built-in skew compensation capabilities. Adjust the equalization as follows:

  1. Zero the skew delay for red, green, and blue as follows:

a. Use a Tweeker or other small screwdriver to press and hold the Select button for 3 seconds. The Red, Green, and Blue LEDS all go out.
b. Release the Select button.

  1. Use UTP cable test equipment or examine the displayed video image with a critical eye to determine which video signal, red, green, or blue, is shifted furthest to the right.

NOTE: A crosshatch test pattern or a black background with vertical white lines is ideal for determining skew.

  1. Adjust the furthest left video signal as follows:

NOTE: The SEQ receiver cannot shift the furthest right video image to the left.

a. Use a Tweeker or other small screwdriver to press and release the Select button until the LED for the left-shifted color (Red, Green, or Blue) lights.
b. Slowly rotate the Adjust control clockwise while monitoring the display. Continue to rotate the control until that color is properly converged.

NOTE: A 2-nanosecond (ns) adjustment is very fine. Up to 10 ns of delay may be necessary before a change in the display is detectable. Maximum delay possible is 62 nanoseconds.

c. Use a Tweeker or other small screwdriver to press the Select button one more time to save the most recent adjustment or allow the 10-second timeout to elapse.

  1. If the remaining color is left shifted, repeat step 3.

Non-SEQ receivers skew compensation

Try using the following methods to minimize or eliminate pair skew:

  • Switch to Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable.
  • Add a skew compensation cable equal to the length of pair skew to the receiver's output.
  • Install an Extron SEQ 100 15HD Skew Equalizer on the video output of the receiver and adjust the skew for the leading video image.

Mounting the Receiver

ATTENTION:

The 1-inch high, half rack width receiver can be placed on a table, mounted in a rack, or mounted under a desk or table.

Tabletop Use

Affix the included rubber feet to the bottom of the unit and place it in any convenient location.

Mounting kits

Mount the unit using any optional compatible mounting kit listed on the Extron website (www.extron.com), in accordance with the directions included with the kit. For rack mounting, see "UL Rack-Mounting Guidelines".

UL Rack-Mounting Guidelines

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements pertain to the installation of the unit into a rack.

  • Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (TMA = +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron.
  • Reduced air flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
  • Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
  • Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
  • Reliable earthing (grounding) — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as use of power strips).
