Step 7
For remote monitoring of the status of the Optical 2 link
from the master receiver, connect a locally constructed or
obtained device to the two Alarm poles of the DA's RS-232/
Alarm 5-pole captive screw connector. The DA shorts the
two poles together when no light is detected.
N The DA's Alarm port reports the status of the
Optical 2 light link.
Step 8
Connect up to six Optical 1 (required) fiber cables between
the DA and receiver(s).
Step 9
If desired, connect the optional Optical 2 fiber cable
between the DA output 1 and the master receiver.
N Optical 2 is functional only for output 1.
Only Optical 1 is required for video,
audio, and serial command transmission.
Optical 2 is required only to send serial data (such
as commands from the master receiver to the DA
and passed responses from the controlled device
(such as a projector) to the controlling device.
Step 10
Connect 1 or 2 RGBHV, RGBS, or RGsB displays to the receiver(s): to
the RGB Output 15-pin HD connector and/or to the RGB Outputs
BNC connectors.
Step 11
Use the receiver(s)' Alt. Pixels test pattern to set each display's total
pixel and phase for the best picture.
Step 12
Connect balanced or unbalanced stereo
or mono audio devices to the receiver(s):
to the Audio Outputs 3.5 mm mini jack
and/or to the Audio Outputs 5-pole
captive screw connector.
C Connect the sleeve to ground
(Gnd). Connecting it to a
negative (-) terminal will
damage the audio output
circuits.
