Check the incoming signal 

Check the Signal Present LED on the front side of the DVI-TP-RX100DL. This LED 
indicates  the  presence  of  an  active  incoming  DVI  clock  signal.  If  it  is  not 
illuminated, then no DVI clock signal is present at the CAT-A input connector. 

Make  sure  that  the  proper  equalization  mode  is  selected  and  if  manual  mode  is 
active, the right amount of equalization is set. 

Check if there’s an outgoing signal on the Monitor Output connector of the DVI-TP-
TX200DL  (also  check  the  Monitor  LED  on  the  front  panel).  The  input  signal  is 
always  routed  to  the  DVI  and  RJ45  output  connectors.  If  there  is  a  signal  on  the 
Monitor Output connector, then the problem is not EDID related. Check if the CATx 
cables are connected properly.   

Check the display status 

Check  the  Monitor  Hotplug  LED  on  the  front  side  of  the  DVI-TP-RX100DL.  This 
LED indicates the presence of the Hotplug signal coming from the attached display 
device.  If  it  is  not  illuminated,  then  your  display  is  not  powered  or  not  configured 
properly. 

Check EDID related problems 

Check  the  EDID  Status  LEDs  on  the  front  side  of  the  DVI-TP-TX200DL.  These 
LEDs indicate whether a valid EDID is selected. If the red LED is illuminated, then 
an  invalid  EDID  or  an  empty  memory  address  is  selected.  Please  select  a  valid 
EDID. 

If the green EDID Status LED is illuminated, then maybe your display device is not 
capable  of  receiving  the  sent  video  format.  Try  emulating  your  display  device’s 
EDID  to  the  source.  You  will  find  help  to  this  process  in  section  3.3.  If  you  get  a 
picture  now,  you  have  an  EDID  related  issue,  please  read  section  2.4  for  more 
details. 

Check the EDID 

Maybe the data rate is too high for that type of cable. Try switching another EDID 
to  the  inputs  with  lower  resolution.  If  the  source  is  a  computer  and  you  are  an 
expert user, you can try modifying the refresh rate, so you would be able to get it to 
work at higher resolutions over a noisy connection.
