2.6 How to Use This Guide

This guide describes the installation and configuration of the DVI-D Fibre – Extender Series. Although the connection and operation of the system is relatively straightforward, you should consider the following before getting started:

Connection & Compatibility

If you have purchased an Extender Kit, this will contain all the cables required to connect the Local unit to your PC or KVM switch. Please see also: Package Contents (page 15)

For information about connection and installation, see page 17.

DDC Information

Normally it is not necessary to make any adjustments to the DVXi- Extender. However, in some circumstances, it may be necessary to redefine the source of DDC Information for the CPU. By default, the DVI-D Fibre KVM-Extender uses its own internal DDC table. If this setting does not satisfy your requirements, the DDC table can either be switched to the locally or remotely attached screen.

To modify the DDC-Setup, please ask Technical support for additional information.

Compatibility

Devices with PS2 connectors are NOT compatible to devices with USB connectors.
