opticis M1-3R2VI-DU DVI Dual Link Extension Module
Welcome!
Congratulations on your purchase of the M1-3R2VI-DU, Optical Dual Link DVI Module. This manual contains information that will assist you in installing and operating the product.
Product Description
The M1-3R2VI-DU module offers 100m extension of dual-link high-resolution digital graphic data over fiber, directly connected between PC and displays, supporting dual link DVI. Two boxes, located one by the PC and the other by the display are connected to each of them with a 1.0 m dual link DVI copper cable. Between two boxes, 7 channels (R, G, B, Clk, R2, G2, B2) of graphic data enables to be transmitted over the 4 LC single or multi-mode fiber bundled cable and the Digital Display Channel (DDC2B) interface is performed over a CAT5e cable, so-called as DDC cable, which has RJ-45C connectors. The M1-3R2VI-DU also provides 2km extension over 4 single-mode fibers using virtual DDC mode without CAT5e connection. The EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) in a display can be read and restored by just plugging once transmitter to the display. This Self-EDID programming feature makes the installation of M1-3R2VI-DU easier and more flexible at any variable resolution display systems. For your convenience, Factory EDID default is set to WQXGA (2560×1600). Shipping Group of M1-3R2VI-DU Optical Dual-Link DVI Module.
- Tx and Rx boxes: One (1) Transmitter (Tx) Box and One (1) Receiver (Rx) Box.
- Two (2) dual link DVI copper cables: 1.0m
- AC/DC power adapter: One (1) +24V unit
- User’s Manual
- Option: DDC cable (UTP for LAN) with RJ-45C.
- Option: 4 LC Patch Cord fiber bundled cable (Single or Multi mode glass fiber).
- Option: Two +24V AC/DC power adapters are required for virtual DDC.
System Requirements for Setup
Hardware requirements
- You must have a Media Receiver or a graphic controller cardwith a Dual link port in your Windows/Mac (Mac is option), orSUN system. It should support the maximum graphic resolution feature of the display to be connected.
- In case of using a computer, no special memory size, CPU speed and chipsets are required.
- Proper initial trial of the entire platform with its application usinga short-length copper cable is recommended prior to install withthe optical link.
- Software requirements
- No special needs, if the Dual-link graphic controller and display peripheral are operational with the platform’s OS and application.
AC/DC Power Adapter Technical Advisory
Direct DDC
- One power adaptor is required to supply power to both modules of TX and RX over the CAT5e cable by plugging the power jack to either of their power plugs.
Virtual DDC
- Two power adapters are required to supply power to Tx and Rx module due to no use of the CAT5e cable for DDC.
Installation – Direct DDC (Use this menu for DDC through CAT5)
Important: Please use the installation procedure below. Failure in
operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.
Step 1
- Check that the transmitter and receiver are turned off. Set “DDC connection” switch to “Direct DDC” position on the front of the transmitter.
Step 2
- Connect the upstream Transmitter box to the DVI receptacle of PC through one dual link DVI copper cable (included).
Step 3
- In the same way as above, connect the Receiver box into the DVI receptacle of the display through the other dual link DVI copper cable.
Waning: Please DO NOT look directly into the LC receptacles of the Transmitter when it is powered on. Although this product is regulated strictly enough to operate under the LASER Class I, classified by CDRH/FDA for eye safety, it is not recommended to do so.
Step 4
- Remove the module dust covers and connect each duplex LC fiber cable one by one to each of 4 LC receptacles of the Transmitter and Receiver boxes, as shown in Fig. 4. Plug channel 1 to 1 and channel 2 to 2. Carefully recheck polarities and ensure the duplex connectors are fully engaged.
Step 5
Connect each RJ-45C of the CAT5e cable to each RJ-45C receptacle of the Transmitter and Receiver boxes.
Note: Connection for single-link DVI use, one duplex fiber or two simplex
fibers are required to be plugged to one port marked “Channel 1”.
Step 6
Connect an AC/DC power adapter to the DC input terminal in either of the Transmitter and Receiver boxes as your availability of AC outlets. Step 7
- Plug the AC/DC power adapter into AC outlet. Turn ON the PC.
Tip 1: After initial installation as guided in the above, we recommend you to power On and Off while all connections are set and the Tx/Rx boxes are powered in.
Installation – Virtual DDC (Use this menu for non-DDC through CAT5e)
Important: Please use the installation procedure below. Failure in
operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.
Step 1
- Check that the transmitter and receiver are turned off. Set “DDC connection” switch to “Virtual DDC” position on the front panel of the transmitter.
Step 2
For Self EDID programming.
- Plug the +24V power adapter to the power jack of the transmitter, and connect the adapter into AC outlet. Ensure “Power” and “Virtual DDC” LEDs are turned ON.
- Push the “Self-EDID” button on the front side of Tx box. The “Virtual DDC” LED is turned ON after blinking twice. The “Status” LED is turned ON.
Note: Please, DO NOT connect the Tx to the display without pushing the “Self-EDID” button. The display may be damaged by an unnecessary power supply through pin16 of the DVI connector.
- Connect the powered transmitter to the powered display through DVI dual link cable, not to the PC. The LED blinking for 8~10 seconds indicates reading the EDID data. “Virtual DDC” LED is turned OFF after blinking and programming is done.
- Disconnect the transmitter from the display and the power adapter.
Note: If you want to change the display, please do again
step 2
- The EDID factory default is programmed with the VESA standard of WQXGA (2560×1600) 60Hz.
Step 3
- Check that the transmitter and receiver are turned off and connect the upstream Transmitter box to the DVI receptacle of PC by one dual-link DVI copper cable in the shipping group.
Step 4
- In the same way as above, connect the Receiver box into the DVI receptacle of the display by the other dual link DVI copper cable.
Step 5
- Remove the module dust covers and connect each duplex LC fiber cable one by one to each of 2 LC duplex receptacles of the Transmitter and Receiver boxes, as shown in Fig. 7. Plug channel 1 to 1 and channel 2 to 2. Carefully recheck polarities and ensure the duplex connectors are fully engaged.
Note: Connection for single-link DVI For single link DVI use, one duplex fiber or two simplex fibers is required to be plugged to one port marked “Channel 1”. Note that self-EDID programming is also applicable in connection for single-link DVI.
Step 6
- Connect two AC/DC power adapters to each of the DC input terminals of the Transmitter and Receiver boxes.
Step 7
- Plug the AC/DC power adapter into AC outlet. Turn ON the PC.
Tip 1: After initial installation as guided in the above, we recommend you to turn On and Off PC while all connections are set and the Tx/Rx boxes are powered in.
Troubleshooting
The display displays black screen
- Check that all AC and DC plugs and jacks used by external power supplies (both Opticis and others) are firmly connected.
- Ensure that power is turned on.
- Ensure that the TX and RX boxes plug correctly to the PC and display.
- Check if the PC and display are powered on and properly booted.
- Re-boot up system after reconnecting the optical system cable.
The screen is distorted or displays noises
- Reset the system.
- Turn off, disconnect the LC-LC fiber cable and try to blow inside of each LC receptacle by air blower
