FOX Extender Program Control

The Extron FOX Extender program, which communicates with the transmitter and receiver
pair via the Remote RS-232 port of either unit or the PowerCage Configuration port,
provides an easy way to operate the pair.

The program is compatible with Windows 2000, Windows XP, or later. Updates to this
program can be downloaded from the Extron website (
