3. Set the Rotary Dip Switch of Transmitter(s) and Receiver(s):
a. 1-to-1 the Transmitter and Receiver must use the same value
b. 1-to-many the Transmitter and all Receivers must use the same value
c. Many-to-many Each Transmitter must use a different value; each group of Receivers must use the same
value as the Transmitter they are to connect to.
4. Power on all your devices
The LEDs on the Extender Units show the real-time status indicating the linking and communication between the
Transmitter and Receiver Units. Users can identify the current status through the LED indicators; the Network Status
LED is situated between the RJ45 and DC sockets on the Transmitter and Receiver, whilst the Power Link LED is
located on the top of each unit.
The Network Status LED will flash to show it is connected to a network, if it is off there is no connection. The Power/Link
LED will be Blue when a connection is established between Transmitter and Receiver, the LED will be Green on the
Transmitter or Red on the Receiver it the connection has not be established. If the LED is flashing Blue and Green on
the Transmitter or Blue and Red on the Receiver then a connection has been made, but there is no active video signal.
Please Note: Low quality cables degrade output signal causing elevated noise levels. Please use the best available
cable and make sure the display device is capable of handling the resolution and refresh rate selected.
