OPERATION NOTES

READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR

OPERATING THE EXTENDER FOR HDMI 1.3 OVER ONE FIBER WITH IR

IR data repeater functionality is single-directional. IR data can only be transmitted from the Receiving unit back to the Sending unit. IR data cannot be transmitted from the Sending unit to the Receiving unit.

Use one SC-terminated multi-mode fiber optic cable to operate the HDMI 1.3 Over One Fiber with IR.

1080p video may be extended up to 1000 feet (300m), depending on the type of fiber optic cable used. The following maximum extension distances will be possible depending on the types of fiber optic cabling that are used:

100m (330 ft) on 62.5/125 μm (OM1) multi-mode SC fiber

300m (1000 ft) on 50/125 μm (OM3) multi-mode SC fiber

RS-232 data is bi-directional for direct commands and echo function or status information.

IMPORTANT CALIBRATION PROCEDURE

These steps must be followed when setting up the Gefen Extender for HDMI 1.3 over one Fiber with IR for the first time.

Connect the SC fiber optic cable between the Sender unit and the Receiver unit.

Set DIP switch 3 on both the Sender unit and the Receiver unit to the OFF position.

Apply power to the source and to both the Sender and Receiver units. The LED indicators on both the Sender unit and Receiver unit will alternate from red to green during the calibration process. The calibration process can take up to 120 seconds to complete.

After the calibration process has finished, the LED indicators on both the Sender unit and the Receiver unit will be solid green. Set DIP switch 3 to the ON position on both the Sender unit and the Receiver unit to lock the calibration settings.

NOTE: When changing fiber optic cables, the calibration procedure must be repeated. See page 11 for details on the calibration procedure.
