User Manual
Welcome!
Congratulations on your purchase of the M5-1003, DVI/USB/RS-232, and audio
optical extender. This manual contains information that will assist you in
installing and operating the product.
Product Description
M5-1003 offers an extremely long extension of DVI, USB, serial control data,
and audio up to 2 km (6,560ft) over single-mode fiber cables with two (2)
duplex LC connectors. It is tremendously long over the limits of copper
extensions like a few meters of DVI and USB.
Designed for high-resolution performance, it guarantees lossless image quality
and no frame dropping to deliver perfect graphic data transmission up to WUXGA
(1920×1200) at a 60Hz refresh rate. It is designed to multiplex and
demultiplex DVI, USB, RS232, and stereo audio so as to be linked over four (4)
single-mode LC fibers at 1310nm/1550nm. It provides a Self-EDID programming
feature that makes the installation of M5-1003 easier and more flexible at any
variable resolution.
Optionally, we could include a convenient remote console switch and indicator
for selecting local control or remote control.

System Requirements for Setup
Hardware requirements
- The local display and remote display should have the same graphic resolution.
- You must have a graphic controller card with a DVI port in your Windows/Mac (Mac is an option), or SUN system. It should support the maximum graphic resolution feature of the display to be connected.
- In the case of using a computer, no special memory size, CPU speed, and chipsets are required.
- A proper initial trial of the entire platform with its application using a short-length copper cable is recommended prior to installation with the optical link.
Software requirements
- No special needs, if the DVI graphic controller and display peripheral are operational with the platform’s OS and application.
AC/DC Power Adapter Technical Advisory
The power of M5-1003 needs to be supplied by plugging the power plugs on each
module (TX and RX) individually.
Installation
Important: Please use the installation procedure below. Improper or no
operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.
Step 1
Carefully unpack the contents of the shipping group.
Step 2
With system power turned off, connect the Transmitter to the DVI receptacle of
PC or other video source equipment by a DVI copper cable. If necessary,
connect the RS-232 cable and the audio cable to the D-sub 9-pin connector and
audio jack.
Step 3
Connect the Transmitter to the display, keyboard, and mouse for local control.
You may skip Step 3 if you don’t need local control. In this case, please see
instructions on pages 1-6 for Self-EDID programming.
Step 4
Connect the Receiver module to the remote display, keyboard, and mouse. If
necessary, connect the RS232 cable and the audio cable to the audio output
device and RS-232 device. For proper RS-232 cable type, please refer to Fig
10.
Step 5
Remove dust covers and connect two(2) duplex LC fibers to LC receptacles of
the Transmitter and Receiver modules, as shown in Fig. 5. Ensure the order of
the duplex LC connectors is correct.
Step 6
Connect an AC/DC power adapter to both Transmitter and Receiver modules as
your availability of AC outlets. You can find a power indication LED light on
in both modules.
Step 7
Turn the power of the PC and display. Turn the power of connected USB, audio,
and RS-232 devices too. For proper RS-232 cable type, please refer to Fig 10.
Tip 1: Avoid “hot plugging” the Uplink as this is not recommended with
live digital voltages.
Operation Guide
Selection of Control Position
Graphic data is always transmitted to both local DVI out and remote DVI out. However, the USB port for the keyboard and mouse is selectable for control at a specific position. The controllable site is as shown on the table below with the position of the switch at the front panel of the transmitter.
The position of Switch| Local Keyboard/Mouse(2 USB ports on Tx)|
Remote Keyboard/Mouse (4 USB ports on Rx)
---|---|---
Remote| Disable| Enable
Local| Enable| Disable
Console| Control position is decided by console switch.
Use of Console Switch and Indicator
Console switch and indicators are optionally provided for easy and convenient
control conversion.
Caution
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.
Self-EDID Programming Procedure
The graphic source equipment generally requires communication of display
information (EDID). Display information (EDID) contains resolution and timing
information for your display. Basically, M5-1003 supports DDC2B with the local
display.
M5-1003 also offers Self-EDID programming. Self-EDID programming means
that the EDID from the display is stored in the transmitter. You should use
Self-EDID feature if you don’t connect the local monitor. Follow these steps
to record the EDID of the display into the transmitter unit.
Note1: If you know that EDID is not required by the source, Auto-EDID
programming is not necessary.
Note2: The default EDID in factory ship-out is programmed in the VESA
standard of UXGA (1600×1200) @60Hz.
Step 1
Power on the display.
Step 2
Insert the included 12V DC power adapter into the transmitter.
Step 3
Push the EDID PRGM. the button of the transmitter with a narrow pin. After
three times blinking of Self-EDID LED, it will stay on.
Step 4
Connect the Local Display port in the transmitter to the display while turning
on over DVI cable. The LED on the front panel will begin to blink rapidly.
Blinking indicates reading the EDID. LED will be turned OFF after blinking for
about 8 sec. The monitor EDID has been recorded.
Step 5
Disconnect the transmitter from the display. Then, LED will turn ON again.
RS-232 Cabling
-
When you connect PC to PC over RS-232 with M5-1003, please use male to female straight type cable between PC and M5-1003-TX and male to male cross type cable between PC to M5-1003-RX.
-
When you connect the PC to the RS-232 device (DUT) over RS-232 with M51003, please use male to female straight type cable between PC and M51003-TX and male to female straight type cable between RS-232 device to M5-1003-RX.
Troubleshooting
The display shows only a black screen.
