PixLite T8-S Mk2 User Manual V211013
5.3 - Connecting the Transmitter to Receivers
Receivers are connected to the transmitter via the RJ45 jacks on the rear panel of the
PixLite T8-S Mk2. Each jack is labelled with its output number 1-8. These ports are not
network ports, and should not be connected to any networking equipment, as shown
in
below. They are specifically designed to connect a PixLite transmitter with
a PixLite receiver. For this reason, the standard network cable you use can be safely
used in excess of 300m.
Figure 15: Correct equipment to use
The PixLite T8-S Mk2 may be connected to two different types of receivers. The first is
the PixLite R2F, which has 2 full pixel outputs (dedicated data and clock lines for each)
with both outputs individually fused.
The other receiver type is the PixLite R4D which has 4 dedicated data only pixels
outputs with each output individually fused. If using this receiver type, the PixLite T8-S
Mk2 unit should always be configured in the Advatek Assistant software to use
expanded mode (see
below). This setup is shown in
below.
For further information relating to the receivers, please consult the specific user
manual for those products.
