Installation
Important: Please keep 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 in the shipping group.
Step 2
Power on the HDMI source and display. HDFX-500-Tx can be turned on by
DDC 5V from pin #18 of HDMI interface, whereas both transmitter and
receiver can be operated by USB power. Opticis recommend USB power
supply for stable power supply for both the transmitter and receiver.
Step 3
Power LED will turn on when HDFX-500-TR is connected to HDMI signal
source and display and Status LED will blink three (3) times. Then Status LED
will blink again when the whole connection is made.

Step 4
Connect one (1) LC optical fiber between the transmitter and the receiver.
Ensure the connectors are fully engaged and then, the top LED will begin to
blink regularly.
Note1:
Please DO NOT look directly into the LC receptacles of the
Transmitter when it is powered on. Although this product is regulated strictly
enough to operate under the LASER Class I, classified by CDRH/FDA for eye
safety, it is not recommended to do so.
Note2:
The maximum extension length by OM3 fiber is 200 meters (656ft.).
Note3:
It is recommended NOT to use any intermediate cable or adapter
between them to avoid undesirable performance degradation.
