Introduction

The RDU-2P is a perfect solution for sharing the output of
two computers from a remote location. It extends DVI-D
and USB 1.1 from two computers to a remote location up
to 275 feet away. Both the transmitter and receiver have
an integrated remote switch, allowing you to switch
between the two computers locally or from the remote
location. With its DDC learning capabilty, the RDU-2P is
fully plug-and-play.

Learning the DDC

1. Disconnect the power from the RDU-2P-TX
(Transmitter).

2. Hold down the SELECT button while reconnecting
the power.

3. Continue to hold SELECT until both the 1 and 2
LEDs are both illuminated.

4. Release the SELECT button.

5. Use SELECT to alternate between the two DDC

modes of the RDU-2PTX. The two DDC learning
modes are 1:Learn Screen and 2: Factory Default.

6. When you have selected the desired learning
mode, wait 5 seconds for both LEDs to ash.

7. When the LEDs stop ashing, the DDC has been
learned.

ABOUT DDC

DDC provides plug-and-play capability to your
displays. When you plug a display into your
computer, the DDC table in the display tells the
computer the optimal resolution to use. In order
to preserve this plug-and-play capability, we have
integrated DDC learning into all of our DVI Solutions.

Using the RDU-2P

1. To switch between the two sources, simply press
the SELECT button on the front of the RDU-2PTX
(locally) or RDU-2PRX (remotely).

2. The selected source will be indicated by the LED
lights on the front panel.

3. Activity will be indicated by the LEDs on the front

of the RDU-2PRX.
