PE1004CF
CAT-5 RECEIVER CARD FOR
PIONEER PLASMA EXPANSION
The PE1004CF CAT-5 Receiver Card is designed
to receive RGBHV/YPbPr video and audio signals
over twisted pair (CAT-5) type cable. The encoded
CAT-5 signals are Altinex Standard Audio+ Video
signals from a compatible transmitter such as the
Altinex DA1930CT. The PE1004CF installs directly
into the plasma monitor and converts the signals
into Pioneer compatible inputs.
The PE1004CF has three twisted pair audio+video
inputs and one RGBHV input with an
accompanying stereo audio input. Additionally, the
PE1004CF provides a buffered audio and video
local output and a CAT-5 distribution output. Any
one of the four inputs may be selected at a time.
The PE1004CF is compatible with video resolutions
VGA through UXGA.
The unit offers hardware and software video
equalization for transmission lengths up to 400
feet. The video equalization works in conjunction
with the video equalization on the transmitter and
the quality of CAT-5 cable.
Audio transmitted over the CAT-5 cable is decoded
and then output on the audio output jack, as well as
distributed on the CAT-5 output. The audio output
follows the selected video input line.
The plasma monitor’s internal controls allow
selection of the PE1004CF default inputs, or the
PE1004CF input to the monitor may be controlled
via standard RS-232 communication. Available
commands allow input selection to any of the three
expansion inputs.
The HelpInside™ feature allows programmers to
have access to command structures and control of
the PE1004CF from any terminal using the [HELP]
command. In conjunction with Altinex’s unique
command structure, HelpInside™ provides
easier-than-ever control of the PE1004CF CAT-5
Receiver with simple keyboard commands. No
typing of long keyboard strings is necessary.
