OPTICIS OMVC-200 Multi-Format to 1-fiber DVI Converter User Manual

OPTICIS OMVC-200 Multi-Format to 1-fiber DVI Converter

Welcome!

Congratulations on your purchase of the Multi-format to 1-fiber DVI converter, OMVC-200. This manual contains information that will assist you in installing and operating the product.

Product Description

The OMVC-200, Multi-format to 1-fiber DVI converter receives Multi-format video up to WUXGA (1920×1200), 60Hz signal and converts to optical signal and transmits up to transmits 500 meters (1,640feet) over one (1) SC multi-mode fibers. OPTICIS 1-fiber DVI receiver, DVFX-100-R is used as a pair to recover 1 fiber DVI to electrical DVI. The EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) in a display can be read and restored by just connecting once transmitter to the display. This Self-EDID programming feature makes the installation of OMVC-200 more easy and flexile at any variable resolution display systems. For your convenience, WUXGA EDID had been stored before shipment as a default.

Shipping Group

• OMVC-200, DVI to 1-fiber DVI converter: One (1) unit
• AC/DC power adapter: One (1) unit of +5V, 3A (Locking type)
• User Manual
• Option Product: Mounting bracket

System Requirements for Setup

Hardware requirements

• You must have a graphic source having a DVI, VGA, Component video, S-video or Composite video port. It should support the maximum graphic resolution feature of displays to be connected.
• No special requirements for memory size, CPU speed and chipsets of video sources.

Software requirements
No special restrictions, if you’ve already properly installed your graphic controller in your OS.

Installation

Important: Please keep the installation procedure below. Improper or no operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.

1. Step 1 Carefully unpack the contents of the shipping group.

2. Step 2 Plug and fasten the 5V power adapters to the +5V DC jack on the rear side of converter. Ensure the Power LED is ON (Blue).

3. Step 3 Please, check if the maximum resolution of the display is WUXGA (1920×1200). Otherwise, follow the instructions for Self-EDID Programming Procedure on page 1-5.

4. Step 4 Connect any video sources to designated input ports over cable. (e.g. Use DVI cable to connect DVI source to DVI IN) If the source is active, status LED (Blue) for each input will be turned on.
   Note : OMVC-200 is designed to detect the first incoming video signal and convert to 1 fiber DVI signal or decide a priority input by pre-programming as DVI, VGA, Component, S-Video, and Composite in an order when all signals are connected and turned on.

5. Step 5 Connect the OPTICAL OUT to 1-fibe DVI receiver, DVFX-100-R over multi-mode SC-SC optical fiber.

6. Step 6 Plug DVFX-100-R to DVI input port of display.

Note1 : The maximum extension length by multi-mode fiber is 500 meters.
Note2: It is recommended NOT to use any intermediate cable or adapter in between to avoid undesirable performance degradation.

Self-EDID Programming Procedure

The graphic source equipment generally requires display information (EDID). It contains resolution and timing information of the display. OMVC-200 supports Self-EDID programming for DVI and VGA inputs. Below is the procedure that reads the EDID from the display and stores it in the EEPROM of the converter. We highly recommend to do Self-EDID once you install your system with OMVC-200 for the first time. Follow the steps below to do it correctly.
Note1 : If you know that EDID is not required by the user’s source, Self- EDID programming is not necessary.
Note2 : The default EDID in factory ship-out is programmed in the VESA standard of WUXGA (1920×1200), 60Hz.

1. Step 1 Connect 5V power adapter to turn OMVC-200 on.

2. Step 2 Power LED (Blue) will be turned ON.

3. Step 3 Push the EDID button on the rear side of converter with a narrow pin. Then, status LED (Blue) will blink 3 times and will be turned ON.
   Note 3 : Push the DVI EDID button for DVI input or VGA EDID for VGA input.

4. Step 4 Connect the DVI IN port on the front side of converter to the DVI input port of display over DVI cable. Then the status LED will begin to blink rapidly. It indicates that it is reading the EDID from the display and storing it in the EEPROM. After 8~10 sec blinking, the status LED will be turned OFF and it indicates completion of all procedure.
   Note 4: Connect VGA IN to the VGA input port of display for VGA input.

5. Step 5 Disconnect the converter from the display.

Troubleshooting

The display shows black screen.

• Ensure that all plugs and jacks used by external power supplies (both Opticis and others) are firmly connected. Ensure that the Power and status LEDs are ON.
• Ensure that the video ports are firmly plugged into the sources and display.
• Ensure that the converter and receiver modules are plugged correctly to the sources and display, respectively.
• Check if the sources and displays are powered on and properly booted.

Screen is distorted or displays noises.

• Check if the graphic resolution is properly set. Go to the display properties of Windows and tap the settings.
• Ensure that the resolution sets less than WUXGA (1920×1200) at 60Hz refresh ratio.
• Reset the system. Disconnect and reconnect the optical fiber or 5V power adapters.

Maintenance

No special maintenance is required for the converter and power adapters. Ensure that the converter and power adapters are stored or used in a benign environment free from liquid or dirt contamination. There are no user serviceable parts. Refer all service and repair issues to Opticis.
