MT107-303
8-Out, Twisted Pair, Single Channel
FEATURES/
MT107-303
The MT107-303 is an 8 Output expansion card for
use with the MT107-104 64X64 Matrix Engine. The
MT107-303 outputs are single channel differential
outputs for use over long cable lengths. The
Twisted Pair signals from the MT107-303 may be
easily combined into a single CAT-5 cable using
ALTINEX MS8704TP adapter cables. The CAT-5
cable is then run to an ALTINEX Twisted Pair
receiver such as the DA1931CT.

computer control
system or any other device capable of sending
RS-232 commands.
The MT107-303 must be installed directly
to the right of the MT107-104 Matrix
Engine. For example, if the engine is
installed in slots 9 and 10, the first
MT107-303 output card should be
installed in slot 11, the second in slot 12,
and so on.
7.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMMANDS
Please see the MT107-104 User's Guide for a
full listing of commands available for the
MT107-303 as part of a MultiTasker Matrix
Switcher.
Step 3. Route the ribbon cables through the notch
in the add-on boards and connect to the
MT107-104 base assembly using the
special high-bandwidth cables provided
with the engine. Make sure the cable
connector is secured in the socket of the
output connector card.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
8
We have carefully tested and found no problems in
the supplied MT107-303. However, we would like to
offer suggestions for the following:
8.1 NO DISPLAY
Cause 1: The source has a problem.
Step 4. Attach the opposite end of the ribbon
cable to the card and carefully slide the
MT107-303 into the empty slot in the
MultiTasker enclosure.
Solution: Check the source and make sure
that there is a signal present and all
source connections are correct. If
the source is working and there is
still no display, see Cause 2.
Step 5. Secure the card by tightening the retainer
screws at the top and bottom.
Cause 2: The input signal is not detected.
Step 6. Connect the output of the MT107-303 to
the input of a Twisted Pair receiver using
ALTINEX cable part number MS8704TP.
Solution 1: In AVSnap®, or other control
software, send the [SDI] command.
This command is detailed in the
MT107-104's User Guide. Verify a
signal is detected for the output
number in question. If a signal is not
detected, see Solution 2.
Step 7. Restore AC power to the enclosure.
Step 8. The MT107-303 is now ready for
operation.
Solution 2: Verify the MT107-303 is connected
to the MT107-104 and that the cable
is in good condition. If a signal is
detected, see Cause 3. If there is no
signal
detected,
