    1. Introduction 1.1. Intended Application The StudioPRO Extender (SPE) is a fiber optic extender designed to extend USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 and DVI video signals up to 1000 meters (3280 feet) over standard duplex multimode fiber. With the SPE, all USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 peripherals can be conveniently located while operating at optimal speed.

    1.3. Laser Information LASER RADIATION DO NOT VIEW DIRECTLY WITH OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS CAUTION: In order to avoid possible exposure to laser energy, it is good practice to attach the fiber optic cables prior to applying power to the StudioPRO EXTENDER. If the fiber optic cable should become disconnected, DO NOT attempt to look into the cable or the panel mounted connector.

    (EDID) and provide video acceptable to the monitor. Due to the Thinklogical TX emulating a monitor it must provide a DDC table to the video card in order for the video card to provide images for transport. Some video cards are very un-forgiving of DDC data. An un-forgiving video card will shut off video output if the DDC is not present at boot up (missing monitor), hot-plugged or the DDC information does not match expected parameters (digital or analog).
  • Page 20 3.5.1.2. Static Mode Static DDC mode is typically used in DCS switched situations. In some switched situations the customer may be using multiple monitors that are all capable of handling the same video resolution but for one reason or another, some of the monitors in the system cause some video cards issues that cause the video card to turn off the video output.
