INTRODUCTION With HDMI becoming more and more popular around the world, many consumers have been searching for a way to transmit HDMI signals over very long distances. The HDMI to Optical Transmitter and Receiver set which uses fiber optical cables will give you longer transmission distances (up to 300m) while also providing you with thinner, lighter cables for easier installation. With this system the HDMI signal is not compressed and is fully compliant with HDMI and HDCP. 2. APPLICATIONS • IR & RS-232 control over fiber optical • Digital signage, airport displays, advertising, video walls or special events • Surveillance systems 3. PACKAGE CONTENTS • HDMI to Optical Transmitter • Optical to HDMI Receiver • 2 x 3.5 mm phone jack to D-Sub 9pin converter cables • 1 x IR Extender • 1 x IR Blaster • 2 x 5 V DC Power Adaptors • Operation Manual 4. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Input source devices such as DVD or Blu-Ray players with HDMI cables and output displays such as HDTV’s and monitors with HDMI ports. 1 5. FEATURES • HDMI v1.2, HDCP and DVI compliance • Long transmission distances - up to 300m or more • Thinner and lighter cables for easier, more discreet installations • Faster data transmission • Lower power consumption • Support the reading of EDID information 2 6. OPERATION CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS 6.1 Transmitter Front and Rear Panels Error HDMI Input Optical SUB HDMI 1 2 3 4 5 6 DC 5V Optical IR-Out RS-232 Main 7 8 1 OPTICAL LED: This blue LED will illuminate when at least one optical cable is connected and has successfully detected and communicated data between the Transmitter and Receiver. Note: If the LED is not illuminated then users will need to check the connection of the fiber cable between the Transmitter and Receiver units and then check the connection is good and that the cable itself is correct and undamaged. 2 ERROR LED: This red LED will illuminate when there is an error in the input signal data rate that is higher than 75/170MHz (Single/Dual). Double Check all connections and make sure they are properly connected. 3 HDMI LED: This blue LED will illuminate when the Transmitter unit is receiving a HDMI signal from the source device. 4 HDMI INPUT: Connect to an HDMI input source such as a DVD or Blu-ray player with a HDMI cable. 5 IR-OUT: Connect to the supplied IR blaster cable for IR signal transmission. Place the IR blaster in direct line-of-sight of the equipment to be controlled. 6 RS-232: Connect to a PC or laptop (with supplied 3.5mm phone jack to D-Sub 9pin adaptor) for the transmission of RS-232 commands. 7 OPTICAL SUB & MAIN: Connect the Transmitter and Receiver units with 2-way fiber optical cable to transmit the data signal Note: Connector Type: LC-LC, Fiber: Duplex Single-mode Fiber 8 DC 5V: Connect to the power adaptor included in the package from the AC wall outlet for power supply. 3 6.2 Receiver Front and Rear Panels Error HDMI Output IR-In Optical SUB HDMI 1 2 3 4 5 6 DC 5V Optical RS-232 Main 7 8 1 OPTICAL LED: This blue LED will illuminate when at least one optical cable is connected and has successfully detected and communicated data between the Transmitter and Receiver. Note: If the LED is not illuminated then users will to need to check the connection of the fiber cable between the Transmitter and Receiver units and then check the connection is good and that the cable itself is correct and undamaged. 2 HDMI LED: This blue LED will illuminate when the device is successfully communicating with the display. 3 ERROR LED: Under normal conditions, this red LED will not illuminate but will blink for few seconds when startup of the the device. When the LED is illuminated constantly, it means the HDMI output is not able to output a HDMI signal. Double check the connection and also make ensure the source is sending a compatible HDMI signal. Check all connections and make sure they are all properly connected. 4 HDMI OUTPUT: Connect to a HDMI Display device, such as a TV or monitor, with a HDMI cable. 5 IR-IN: Connect to the supplied IR Extender cables for IR signal reception. Ensure that remote being used is within the direct lineof-sight of the IR extender. 6 RS-232: Connect to the device that is to be controlled (with the supplied 3.5mm phone jack to D-Sub 9pin adaptor) by RS-232 commands 7 OPTICAL SUB & MAIN: Connect the Transmitter and Receiver units with 2-way fiber optical cable to transmit the data signal. Note: Connector Type: LC-LC, Fiber: Duplex Single-mode Fiber 8 DC 5V: Connect to the power adaptor included in the package from the AC wall outlet for power supply. 4 7.
