Status area
Figure 4-5 — Extender program Status area
The Status area provides visual indications of the connection
status. These indications are similar to the front panel
indications described in chapter 3, "Operation".
• RGB present indicator — This indicator is green when
the transmitter detects a sync signal on its video input:

Horizontal sync (H) (for RGBHV video)
 Composite sync (S) (for RGBS video)

Green (Sync on green) (G) (for RGsB or RsGsBs video)

DVI video
• Audio present indicator — This indicator is green when
the transmitter detects a low level audio signal for a short
period of time. This indicator goes dark if the audio
signal drops below the minimum threshold for a short
period of time.
• Link 1 indicator — This indicator is green when the
receiver detects light on the fiber optic cable Optical 1.
N The receiver detects the Optical 1 light. It reports the
status to the transmitter via the optional Optical 2 cable.
If you are connected to either of the transmitter's serial
ports, and the Optical 2 cable is not connected in your
system, the control program's Link 1 indicator will not
show green (detected) whether the receiver detects the
link or not.
• Link 2 indicator — This indicator is green when the
transmitter detects light on the fiber optic cable Optical 2.
N The transmitter detects the Optical 2 light. It reports the
status to the receiver via the Optical 1 cable.
If you are connected to either of the receiver's serial
ports, and the Optical 1 cable is disconnected, the
control program's Link 2 indicator will not show green
(detected) whether the transmitter detects the link or not.
The Status area also shows to which unit the controlling PC is
connected, the FOX 500 model (multimode or singlemode), the
video input frequency, and the unit's temperature.
Memory Preset area
Figure 4-6 — Extender program Memory Preset area
The Memory Preset area provides a means to save and recall
memory presets. Memory presets are saved values of the
horizontal and vertical position, horizontal start, total pixels,
and pixel phase settings. See "Memory Presets menu" in
chapter 3, "Operation", for more information on presets.
Mute area
Figure 4-7 — Extender program Mute area
Click the Video Mute and/or Audio Mute radio buttons in the
Mute area to turn the video and/or audio mutes on and off.
N When the video output is RGB and the video output is
muted, the receiver mutes the red, green, and blue planes,
but leaves the sync plane(s) (horizontal and vertical or
composite sync) live so that there is no loss of sync in the
display device.
N When you mute or unmute the output, the setting is
changed in the receiver. It reports the changes to the
transmitter via the optional Optical 2 cable.
If you are connected to either of the transmitter's serial
ports, and the Optical 2 cable is not connected in your
system, you can still mute the output in the control
program's Mute area, but the program cannot report
the position values. The Set video (or audio) mute On
or Off message is displayed for approximately 1 second
(figure 4-8).
