Extron electronics DVI DL 201 Tx Setup Manual

Setup Guide — DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx
The Extron DVI DL 201 Tx and DVI DL 201 Rx are dual
®
link DVI transmitter (Tx) or receiver (Rx) units. Using
three CAT 5/5e/6/7 twisted pair cables, DVI-D signals
can be extended up to 100 feet (30 m) at resolutions up to
2560x1600 @ 60 Hz. They can be purchased as a pair or as
individual units.
W These instructions provide a quick setup guide for experienced installers. Installation
and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.
N The DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx works with unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable or shielded twisted
pair (STP) cable. STP cables are required to ensure FCC Class A and CE compliance.
C Always use a power
supply specified by
Extron for this unit.
Use of an unauthorized
power supply voids all
regulatory compliance
certification and
may cause damage
to the supply and the
transmitter or receiver.
N One power supply is provided
when the transmitter and
receiver are purchased
together. A power supply is
not provided when either unit
is purchased separately.

Step 1

Turn off all equipment or disconnect
it from power sources. Mount the
transmitter and receiver as desired.
Follow the instructions included with the
appropriate mounting kit.

Step 2

Use the three port captive screw
connections to transmit pass-through
RS-232 and IR signals from a control
device to a remote device. RS-232 signals
are bidirectional and use three wires
(see diagram A. at right). IR signals are
unidirectional and use two wires (see
diagram B. at right). In each case the
control device is wired to the transmitter in
exactly the same way as the remote device
is wired to the the receiver.

Step 3

Determine how the source device will obtain the EDID information and perform
one of the following procedures:
Option 1 — To capture the EDID of a desired display and store it in the EDID
Minder for future use:
a. Connect the display to the local monitor output of the transmitter.
b. Power on the transmitter and the local monitor.
c. Configure the DDC switches as shown in the figure at right.
