NOTES:

Figure 16 is an amalgam of program displays. Some controls and displays

are available when connected to the transmitter only and some when
connected to the receiver only. These functions are identified in the
descriptions that follow.

Only one fiber optic cable, transmitter-Tx-to-receiver-Rx, is required for

serial command transmission. But, if you connect only one fiber optic
cable, the transmitter will not receive reports from the controlled device.
For the transmitter to receive responses from the controlled device,
you must install two fiber optic cables and leave link 2 enabled (via an

SIS command

to the receiver or using the

FOX Extenders Control

Program

).
