c. Connect a DisplayPort video display to the receiver DisplayPort output connector.
d. Connect an audio input device to either the Audio 3.5 mm mini jack or the Audio 5-pole captive screw connector
on the transmitter. See the drawing below step 2g to make connections on the captive screw connector.
e. Connect an audio output device to either or both the 3.5 mm mini jack or the Audio 5-pole captive screw connector
on the receiver. See the drawing below step 2g to make connections on the captive screw connector.
f. For optional returned audio, connect an audio output device to the Audio Return Out 5-pole captive screw
connector on the transmitter. See the drawing below step 2g to make connections on the captive screw
connector.
g. For optional returned audio, connect an audio input device to the Audio Return In 5-pole captive screw
connector on the receiver. See the drawing below to make connections on the
captive screw connector.
ATTENTION:
• For unbalanced audio, connect the sleeves to the ground
contact. DO NOT connect the sleeves to the negative (-)
contacts.
• Pour l’audio asymétrique, connectez les manchons

Operation
After all receivers, the transmitter, and their connected devices are powered up, the system is fully operational. If any problems are
encountered, verify that the cables are routed and connected properly and that all display devices have identical resolutions and refresh
rates. If problems persist, call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline at the number that is closest to you. See the contact
numbers on the

NOTE: Ensure that the transmitter and connected receiver are the same transmission mode,
singlemode (SM) or multimode (MM) and that you use the correct SM or MM fiber cable to connect the
devices
to the transmitter, connect a cable between the Tx port on the receiver and Rx port on the transmitter (
