connection to different types of projectors or
monitors using ALTINEX cables.
4.5 POWER/SIGNAL PRESENT INDICATOR
The DA2000TM has an LED on the front panel,
which provides feedback to the user. When power
is connected to the DA2000TM, the LED will turn
red. When a computer video source is connected
to the DA2000TM, the LED will turn green,
indicating that the unit is receiving a signal by
sensing the presence of the sync portion of the
signal.

The DA2000TM will operate successfully as long
as all cables are attached properly and other
technical specifications are followed.
Step 1. Mount the DA2000TM to the underside of
a table and apply 9VDC power to the unit.
The LED should turn red, indicating power
but no incoming video signal.
Step 2. Connect an active video source to the
front of the DA2000TM. The LED should
turn green.
If the DA2000TM is
connected to a display, you should see an
image.
Step 3. Connect an active audio source to the
front of the DA2000TM. If the DA2000TM
is connected to an audio amplifier with
speakers, you should hear sound.
