This unit outputs continuous invisible light, which
may be harmful and dangerous to the eyes; use with
caution. For additional safety, plug the attached
dust caps into the optical transceivers
when the fiber optic cable is unplugged.
N
Ensure that you use the proper fiber cable for
your transceivers. Typically, singlemode fiber
cable has a yellow jacket and multimode fiber
cable has an orange jacket. Also, see "Fiber
Compatibility Indications" on page
2-14
to
determine the transceiver's compatibility.

—
In any FOX HD-SDI configuration
,
for all one-
way
HD-SDI, SDI, or 3G-SDI
transmission, connect a
fiber optic cable to the Optical Tx LC connector.
Connect the free end of this fiber optic cable
to the Optical Rx connector on another
FOX HD-SDI transceiver that is configured as a
bidirectional transceiver or as a receiver.

a
. Pass the legs of the U-bolt through the slotted holes on
the mount plate flange.
b
. Place the legs around the projector pole.
c
. Pass the legs through the holes in the contour base.
N
The pole fits snugly into the depression in the center
of the contoured base.
d
. Pass the U-bolt legs through the holes in the L-shaped
bracket.
N
The supplied U-bolt fits a typical (1.5" to 2.0"
diameter) ceiling pole.
7
.
Align the two slotted holes in the bottom of the L-shaped
bracket with the two slotted holes in the base of the tray.
Secure the L-shaped bracket to the base by inserting two
provided 6-32 x 5/16" screws through the aligned slots.
8
.
Move the PMK 350 up to the desired location on the ceiling
pole, as close to the ceiling as desired.
9
.
Secure the L-shaped bracket to the U-bolt using the
included hex nuts, washers, and lock washers. Tighten the
hex nuts securely.
N
Be sure to tighten the hex nuts securely enough that the
PMK 350 does not slide down the ceiling pole. A socket
wrench is recommended to tighten the hex nuts.
10
. Secure the front panel to the mounting tray with four of
the included #6 screws.
11
. If desired, choose one of the provided four sizes of self-
adhesive cover sheets, and apply it to the underside of the
mounting tray.
