Connections
The analog video/sync input is made on a standard BNC connector. A
loop out connection is provided. Please terminate the loop output with a
75 Ohm terminator if not used.
USB Port / Firmware Updates / yelloGUI
The USB interface on the module is used for rmware updates and for
control of the module using the yelloGUI software application. For more
information and to download the yelloGUI application please go to:
Four versions of the module are available, the only dierence is the SFP
sub module installed into the basic module. (LC, ST or SC connections for
singlemode versions and a multimode version with LC connection)
The module ber connection is supplied with a rubber plug installed,
this is to prevent dust contamination. Please retain the plug and use if
cable is ever disconnected from the module.
Operation
Operation of the OTX 1712-2 is fully automatic. The analog video or sync
input format is automatically detected, converted and transmitted over
the ber optic connection. LEDs are provided on the side of the module
to indicate the module operating mode (SDTV or HDTV)
Status LED
The Status LED on the top of the module is multifunctional:
= Power OK and no internal programmed settings are present
= Power OK and some internal programmed settings are active*
= (OFF) Power not present.
*Some additional internal settings have been made using the yelloGUI. The LED indicates this by
truning yellow. The module can be set to factory defaults by using the reset button (recessed in a
hole on the side of the module). When reset the LED will change back to green.
Distance
The distance reach of modules is dierent for Singlemode and Multimode
yellogui.lynx-technik.com
Firmware updates are always provided free of charge and can be
downloaded from our website.
A PC and a USB cable are required for rmware updates and to use the
yelloGUI appliction
Power Lead Strain Relief
The module has a small hole in the case located above the power
connection to prevent the power lead from being accidentally
unplugged. Use the supplied tie-wrap and secure the lead as shown
below.
Oprional Mounting Bracket
The optional RFR 1001 mounting bracket can be
used to permanently mount the module on any
at surface or 19“ rack rails.
OTX 1712 LC, ST, SC Singlemode - max(approx) 10km (6.2 mi.)
OTX 1712 MM Multimode - max (approx) 300m (984 ft.)
