Receiver Property Box
In the network panel, click on a receiver icon and select Properties... in the popup menu.
Cable Settings
Cable settings apply to both monitor attached.
Important Note: Cable settings are not propagated to the cat5 output port. Thus, if several receivers are daisy-chained, the settings of each of them do not depend on the settings on the receiver they are connected to. You can setup the receivers in any order, independently from each others. This is not true for Splitters that forward the modified video to attached receivers.
Compensation: Set this slider roughly to the cable length. Then look for the best setting by looking at the monitor image quality. It compensates the cable natural behaviour that attenuates high frequencies more than low frequencies. The more the cable is long, the more this effect is important, and the more you need compensation.
Gain: Use this slider to set the brightness to correct level
Red Shift and Blue Shift: In a Cat5 cable there are 4 twisted pairs of wires, each with a different twist ratio, to reduce cross-talk (digital signals). This means for any RGB signal, each colour arrives at a slightly different time, referred to as “skewed”. These two sliders allow skew compensation between any three Red, Green, and Blue signals. Green is taken as reference. Try to display the test image provided and move the sliders so that the red, green, and blue vertical bars are perfectly aligned.

Maintenance
Under the Maintenance tab you can find important receiver information:
Force Firmware Update: Click this button to ask the broadcaster to upload this receiver with the firmware standing in its firmware store. The upload will take place with no date comparison, ie, even if the receiver current firmware is newer than the receiver firmware standing in the broadcaster firmware store. This is the only way to upload older firmware versions to the receivers.
