3 Overview  
The high performance VP-200D XGA Differential Amplifier / DA is a 1:2  
differential line amplifier / distributor for computer graphics signals that  
accepts one input, provides correct buffering and isolation, and then  
distributes the signal to two identical outputs.

Your VP-200D XGA Differential Amplifier / DA  
In particular, the VP-200D XGA Differential Amplifier / DA includes:  
ñ
High-density 15 pin D connectors  
ñ
Video bandwidth of 420MHz, ensuring that it remains transparent for all  
resolutions  
ñ
ñ
Separate controls for output level and a cable equalization  
Special differential amplifying circuitry, which eliminates noise and hum  
problems commonly found in long XGA lines  
ñ
ñ
ID Bit control  
Is 12VDC fed  
Achieving the best performance means:  
Connecting only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding  
ñ
interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated  
noise levels (often associated with low quality cables)  
ñ
Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances and  
positioning your VP-200D away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

5 Connecting the VP-200D XGA Differential Amplifier / DA  
To connect your VP-200D XGA Differential Amplifier / DA, as the example in  
Figure 4 illustrates, do the following2:  
1. Connect a computer graphics source (for example, a computer) to the  
INPUT HD15F connector.  
2. Push in the ID Bit button.  
3. Connect the OUTPUT HD15F connectors to up to 2 acceptors, as follows:  
ñ
ñ
Connect the OUTPUT 1 to the acceptor 1 (for example, a projector)  
Connect the OUTPUT 2 to the acceptor 2 (for example, a display)  
4. Connect the 12V DC power adapter (wall transformer) to the 12V DC  
socket and connect the transformer to the mains electricity.  
5. If required, adjust the video EQ. and/or the video signal level.  
It is recommended that you place the VP-200D at the far end, away from the  
source, where the differential circuitry would be most effective.
