2. Connect the RS-232 source to the Extender for HDMI 1.3 Over One Fiber
with IR sender unit’s RS-232 input port using the supplied DB-9 serial cable.
3. For IR repeater functionality, please connect the Gefen IR Emitter (sold
separately, part # EXT-2IREMIT) into the Extender for HDMI 1.3 Over One
Fiber with IR sender at the mini-jack labelled “IR Blaster.” Place the IR
Emitter directly on or above the IR receiving window of the source device
you intend to control.
4. Connect the Extender’s sender and receiver units together using one user
supplied SC terminated multi-mode
fi
ber optic cable.
5. Connect the display to the HDMI output port of the Extender’s receiver unit
using a user supplied HDMI cable. Connect the RS-232 device (if applicable)
to the RS-232 output port of the receiver unit using a user supplied DB-9

units. Power on the display
fi
rst and the source second. You will now
experience HDMI video accompanied by up to 8 channels of embedded
digital HDMI audio at the display device.
7. A delay of up to 60 seconds may be observed when power is applied as
the Extender automatically calibrates itself to the

successful, both LED lights on the Sender and Receiver will be GREEN.
8. At this point, you will want to lock (or store) the calibration values into
the memory of the Extender to avoid having to repeat this process and to
safeguard the calibration values against loss during power outtages. Please
see page 8 for locking instructions under the “Fiber Calibration” section.
