System Requirements for Setup
Hardware requirements
You have to have a HDMI display source (Media player, PC or
laptop). It should support the maximum graphic resolution
feature of Display (TV, Monitor or Projector) to be connected.
No special requirements memory size, CPU speed and
chipsets, if you
’ve already properly installed your HDMI
systems.
Software requirements
No special restrictions, if you
’ve already properly installed your
HDMI / DVI systems.
AC/DC Power Adapter Technical Advisory
The HDFC-200 is designed to use +5V internal power supplied
through a HDMI pin (#18) on the graphic source port. However,
HDFC-200 requires USB power supply on RX side to power up.
Note that if either of Display source or Display does not support
HDMI 2.0 standard, HDFC-200 would not transmit HDMI 2.0 signal.
Just like copper cable, transmitting information will follow lower
resolution of the two.
(Example: 4K Display source
– 2K Display → 2K resolution,
2K Display source
– 4K Display → 2K resolution)
1-2 System Requirements for Setup
Installation
Important: Please use the installation procedure below. Improper or no
operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.
Step 1
Carefully unpack the contents of the shipping group.
Step 2
Plug directly the HDMI plug of the Tx side of HDFC-200 into the HDMI
receptacle of HDMI source (Media player, PC or laptop) without power up of
the devices. Opticis does
NOT
recommend customer to use any intermediate
cable or adapter between them. It may deteriorate the signal transmission
performance.
Step 3
Plug the HDMI plug of the Rx side of HDFC-200 into the HDMI receptacle of a
Display. Opticis does
NOT
recommend customer to use any intermediate
cable or adapter between them. It may deteriorate the signal transmission
performance.
Step 4
Plug USB connector of RX side to USB port of a display and check the blue
LED of RX is ON.
Step 5
Power ON the device of a HDMI source and a Display and check the blue
power LED on Tx and Rx ON.
Step 6
If the system does not work properly, go to page 1-4, trouble shooting.
Note:
HDFC-200 can utilize either the +5V power supplied through a HDMI pin
(#18) from the HDMI source or the +5V power adaptor. Nonetheless, you have
to confirm the power being capable to supply more than 500mA. If HDMI
source doesn
’t supply enough power, you can make a customized order of
HDFC-200, USB power cable on TX side for supplying power (optional).
Note:
Many HDMI sources are able to supply sufficiently DC power to operate
HDFC-200 on TX side.
