9. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
I get no signal.
•
Check that the units are connected to mains and that the Power-switch is in the ON position
•
Check that both units in the 'ON' position [B].
•
Check if the receiving TV is on the correct A/V channel. Raise the small black side
antenna [J] to an upright position.
The signal received is poor.
•
Try another channel (A, B, C or D; the channel settings must be the same on both units).
•
Move transmitter and/or receiver from the immediate vicinity of the connected A/V
devices. These may affect the range.
•
You are (almost) out of range.
•
Moving the position of the transmitter and/ or receiver a few centimetres may rectify the
problem.
The images and sound are perfect, but the infra-red return signal does not work.
Check the following:
•
Depending on the local situation the 5.8GHz A/V signal can reach further than the
433MHz signal of the IR receiver. Try again with shorter distances.
•
Has the IR emitter been properly connected to the transmitter?
•
Has the IR emitter been properly fixed on the IR window of your A/V device?
I do get images but no sound.
•
The GigaVideo580™ can send analogue stereo signals, such as e.g. Dolby Surround.
Digital systems such as Dolby 5.1 or Dolby Digital cannot be transmitted.
•
You have connected an S-VIDEO (Mini-DIN) signal to the transmitter directly with an
S-VIDEO cable. This is not possible. You need to use the cables included and connect
them to the scart or RCA output of your A/V device.
Does the GigaVideo580™ cause a conflict with my wireless network (WLAN) ?
No, WiFi makes use of the 2.4Ghz frequency band. The GigaVideo580 makes use of the
5.8GHz frequency band. In cases where a 2.4GHz video transmitter experiences distortion
from a WiFi network, for example, then the GigaVideo580 can be the right solution
Can I combine multiple receivers?
Yes. However, the signal will be the same on all receivers.
Can I combine multiple transmitters?
You can use a maximum of 4 transmitters with one or more receivers. You can use 4 different
channels. The infrared return channel cannot be set separately and will work with the entire
system. Transmitters and receivers of GigaVideo580™ are not compatible with transmitters
and receivers that operate on a 2.4GHz frequency band.
