1 Quick Setup
This section briefly describes how to install your media extender system. Unless you are an
experienced user, we recommend that you follow the full procedures described in the rest of this
manual. You can download the manual on:
http://www.ihse.de/pdf/b466-xw_e.pdf.
2 Installation
For first-time users, we recommend that you carry out a test placement, confined to a single room,
before commencing full installation. This will allow you to identify and solve any cabling problems,
and experiment with the media extender system more conveniently.
2.1 Package Contents
You should receive the following items in your extender package (all types):
• DVXi/ME Media-Extender- pair (Local Unit + Remote Unit)
• 2x 5V DC universal power supp ly for the DVXi/ME - Extender
• 2x German type power cord
• User manual (Quick Setup)
• DVI-I (1,8m) video cable (DVI-I dual l ink male-to-male)
If anything is missing, please contact Technical Support
2.2 System Setup
To install your DVXi/ME – Extender system:
1. Switch off all devices.
2. Connect your monitor(s) and speakers to the Remote unit (depending on device type).
3. Using the supplied DVI-cable(s), connect the local unit to the computer
4. Connect the 5V power supply to power the unit.
Only use the power supply originally supplied with this
equipment or a manufacturer-approved replacement.
5. For a dual access system, connect the monitor for the Local console to the appropriate port on
the Local unit.
6. Connect the interconnect cable to the INTERCONNECT socket(s)
7. Power up the system.
2.3 Interconnection Cable Requirements
To connect the Local and Remote units you will need:
• DVI: Connect the suppli ed DVI CPU cable set to your CPU (KVM.- Switch, etc.). Please
ensure that the connection is tension-free! Devices K461-2W + K461-2U
• CATx Cable: Recommended cable: S/ UTP (Cat5) according EIA/TIA 56A, TSB 36 or Digital
STP 17-03170. Four pairs AWG 24. connection according EIA/TIA 568A (10BaseT). Use of
cables from a higher category (Cat5e, Cat6, Cat7) is possible.
The use of unshielded CATx Cable is possible, because of the higher electromagnetic
noise/sensitivity the device class may not be reached.
The use of flexible Cables (Patch cable) Type AWG26/8 is possible. Because of the higher loss
of the stranded cables, the maximum distance is reduced to app. half the value of solid cables.
A point to point connection is required. Having one or more patch panels in the
line is possible and allowed. Not allowed is a connection from the CATx link
interface (RJ45) to any other products, especially telecommunicatio ns or network
equipment.
• Power Supply
Connect the supplied 5V/DC power supplies to the Plug terminal on the rear of both Local and
Remote units.

3.1 Diagnostic LEDs
Each DVXi/ME Media-Extender is fitted with four indicator LEDs: Power, Video OK, Data Error,
Link Status: The Power LEDs are next to the Power socket.
The location of the LEDs is shown below:

4 Audio/serial option
No setting up or user adjustments are required. Please note that on the dual access model, the serial
link is always active Please bear in mind that the Remote Unit’s serial port is wired as DTE (i.e. the
same as that on a PC). To connect a serial printer (or other DTE rather than DCE device) to the
Remote Unit, you will need a Null-Modem (crossover) cable between the Remote Unit and the
printer. Select Xon/Xoff so ftware flow control on the printer and PC. A serial Touchscreen may be
plugged directly into the Remote Unit.
5 Troubleshooting
Monitor
There isn’t a picture.
Check the power supply connection at the Local and Remote unit. Is the Power (Red
LED) at the Local and Remote unit illuminated? If not, the internal power-supply may be
damaged or there may be an internal error.
Check that the Interconnection cable is connected at the Local Unit and the Remote Unit.
Is the Link Status LED illuminated? If not, there may be a problem with the
Interconnection cable:
Are there Errors through data transmission over fibre Cable (Cable too long, too high
attenuation or too much EMI interferences)? Is the Data Error LED illuminated or
blinking? If yes, check cable length and environment.
Video Okay LED is dark: CPU does not provide a video signal – Check settings of the
graphic card. Try out, connecting a monitor to the local output, to see, whether there is a
signal or not.
