Step 4 — Remote Connector
Connect a host device to the front panel Config port on either unit via the 9-pin D to 2.5 mm mini jack TRS RS-232 cable
that is included with the Tx model or available separately (part number 70-335-01). See the FOXBOX Tx/Rx User Guide
for detailed information about using the Simple Instruction Set (SIS
™ ) commands and the Windows ® -based FOX Extender
program to set up and operate the transmitter and receiver and to take advantage of the various adjustments and test
patterns available on the FOXBOX units.
Step 5 — Power
Plug the included external 12 VDC power supply into this 2-pole captive screw
connector on each unit as shown at right. Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the
power cord to the extended tail of the connector.
