6.3.8.1. Input parameter settings for 'DVI-D' type boards
Covered boards: MX-DVID-IB, MX-DVI-TP-IB, MX-DVI-TP-IB+
Cable equalization
The amplitude of high frequency signals decreases after they pass through long
distances in copper cables. To counter-act this phenomenon, input boards can amplify
the signal while maximizing the amplitude at a certain level, which is defined by the DVI
1.0 standard. This process is called equalization.
There are two equalization modes: automatic and manual. Automatic mode usually
provides perfect transmission but at longer distances and higher resolutions, manual
equalization may be necessary. By default, automatic equalization is enabled.
To disable automatic equalization turn the checkbox off. This enables the slider to set the
equalization level manually.
Keep in mind that a previously set manual equalization level may not be suitable for a
different system. It is always advised to use the automatic mode and only adjust the
equalization manually if the auto mode does not give a good result.
6.3.8.2. Input parameter settings for 'DVI-OPT' type boards
Covered boards: MX-DVI-OPT-IB-..., MX-DVIDL-OPT-IB-...
Properties
The optical module's type and serial number is shown. The connector type is the
standard name of the fiber connector which is mounted on the back plate of the board.
The connector type can be: LC, SC, ST, and NT (Neutrik OpticalCON).
