System Installation
- Attach a display, keyboard/mouse, microphone and speaker, as required, to the HDMI-Out, USB, MIC-IN, Line-Out ports of the Receiver respectively.
- Use a HDMI-HDMI cable to attach the PC HDMI output to the HDMI-IN of the Transmitter.
- Use a USB-B to USB-A cable to connect Transmitter USB-B to PC USB port.
- Connect the Transmitter’s Line-In/Line-Out to PC Line-Out/Line-In using audio cables.
- 5.1 For CATx cable installation: Use a CAT6/6a/7 UTP cable (straight EIA 568B, max. 150 meters depending on cable quality) to directly connect Tx to Rx as a pair connection, or 100 meters (each) to a Gigabit Ethernet Switch. 5.2 For Fiber cable installation: Connect Fiber cable (either SM (up to 10km) or MM (up to 300m)) to the pre-attached 1.25G SFP module of the Tx/Rx SFP Fiber Slot for direct Tx/Rx connection, or connect to Gigabit Ethernet Switch,
- Adjust the Tx/Rx 5-bit DIP Switch to match as a paired connection.
- Power ON both the Receiver and the Trawiuer.
- The EDID of Rx screen will be detected by the PC Graphic card. The PC HDMI/Audio outputs will be displayed on the Receiver’s monitor and speakers. The EDID info should be available on the PC graphic control panel.
- The USB keyboard/mouse at the Receiver will now control the PC at the Transmitter.
When multiple Transmitters and Receivers are connected to a network switch, each pair must have a separate ID number, determined by the position of the dipswitches on the front of the Transmitter and Receiver. A Transmitter an Receiver can only connect to each other (pair) if their ID numbers are the same, and they must be unlike any other ID numbers on other Transmitters and Receivers connected to the network switch. That is, each pair of Transmitter and Receiver must have a unique ID number.
