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.

WThese instructions provide a quick setup guide for experienced installers. Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.

NThe 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.

CAlways 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.

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

2560 x 1600 Flat Panel Display with Dual-Link DVI Input

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.
