STEP 3

Connect the fiber optic cable between the Transmitter and Receiver Units. Do not kink or pinch the cable and be sure to keep all bend radii to less than 3 inches.

Single Fiber Operation

The system will operate with a single fiber from the Transmitter (Tx) to the Receiver (Rx). In this mode the Tx can transmit video and status LED information to the Rx via Fiber L1. The Rx cannot send information to the Tx and the Rx buttons are inoperative. Also, DDC information can only be gathered from the Tx local port or the Thinklogical default EDID table (see DVI Extender Manual, page 12).

Dual Fiber Operation

In this mode, in addition to the information transmitted through L1, information is transmitted from the Rx to the Tx through Fiber L2. Providing a back channel allows the Rx to modify the DDC configuration via the DDC Mode buttons and send it to the Tx. DDC information exchange allows the PC to gather information about the attached monitor to determine its display properties.

Power Supply

L1/L1 and L2/L2 Optical Fibers (up to 1000 meters) Available with ST-, SC- or LC-type connectors

Power Supply

Connect the other end of the cable to the Primary (left) Receiver DVI-D connector.

Each of the Thinklogical™ DVI Ex tender sy stems are designed for high resolution video extension applications such as remote pro jec ti o n cen te rs , the a te r s and as se mb ly ha lls, and fo r sec ur e co mputer installatio ns. It is now possible to position the monitor or projector in any setting f ro m o ff ice to lecture hall to boardroo m w hile keepi ng the compute r s ec ure i n a re mot e, controlle d location.

All physical connections to the product use industry-standard connectors.

STEP 4

Connect the supplied AC Power Adapter (PWR-000022-R) to the Transmitter unit and plug it in to a standard AC source.

STEP 1

Connect one end of a DVI-D Male to Male Cable to the primary viewing device.

A second device can also be installed to the right, secondary port using a similar

DVI-D Male to Male cable. If using only one device, it must be connected to the

Primary Port. Turn on the DVI video device(s).

STEP 5

Connect one end of the 1 meter DVI-D Male to Male Cable (CBL-000021-001MR) to the video source (DVI-D video card). Connect the other end to the transmitter DVI-D connector. A local display may also be connected using the supplied 2 meter DVI-D Male to Male Cable (CBL-000009002MR). Ensure that all the devices are turned on and all system functions are operating properly.

Tx Status LED

Green = Fiber L2 is connected and a goo d link is established.

Orange = Local Static Mode selected and no fibe r link from Rx

to Tx (L2 is not connected) or both DDC mode buttons are held down and the unit is waiting to reload the default DDC table.

Red Flashing = No Fiber Link from Rx to Tx (Not available in

Local Static mode.)

Rx Status LED

Green = Good Link and DVI device connected to primary port

(port on left in the diagram below).

Orange = No DVI device connected to primary port.

Red Flashing = No Fiber Link from Tx to Rx (L1 is not

connected).

Fiber-optic cable ports.

The Primary Port on the Rx is used for DDC. The Secondary Port carries video data only.

Acquire Button

Used to initiate DDC collection. Works with all modes except Pass-Thru. Must be pressed after switching between DDC modes.

Select Button

Used to select the DDC mode. The modes will cycle through Remote Dynamic, Remote Static, Pass-Thru and Local Static.

Both Buttons held 5 seconds

Holding both buttons for 5 seconds will reload the default DDC table into the Tx and switch to Remote Static mode.
