Power
Apply power by connecting one or both power cords between the Primary and Redundant
AC power connectors and the AC sources. The switcher performs a self-test that flashes
the front panel power LEDs.
The current configuration and all presets are saved in non-volatile memory. When power is
applied, the most recent configuration is retrieved.
If an error occurs during the self-test, the switcher locks up and fails to respond to
commands. If the switcher locks up on power-up, call the Extron S3 Sales and Technical
Support Hotline (see the contact numbers listed on the
for the nearest
office).
Matrix Operations
The FOX3 Matrix can be operated in one of two modes: Port mode and System Mapping
mode.
NOTE:
The FOX3 matrix is initially in Port mode when it is powered for the first time.
•
In
Port mode
, each physical SFP on the Matrix represents In 1 and Out 1.
•
In
System Map mode
, multiple SFP modules can be combined via PCS to create
a configuration map. This mode is used to simplify system switching and USB group
switching for cross display applications (see the
FOX3 Matrix Series PCS Help File
for
detailed instructions).
Secure Direct Port Access
Open an associated UART port to send serial data to its captive screw connector. The
control system connects via LAN port to the FOX3 Matrix LAN port. The device being
controlled connects to the receiver RS-232 captive screw port. The user must configure
the endpoint for Ethernet to Captive Screw RS-232 Insertion via PCS (see the
FOX3 Matrix
Series PCS Help File
).
Example of an Ethernet to captive screw system (see
•
On the FOX3 Matrix, configure the
Secure
Direct
Port
Access
via PCS and assign
the UART ports.
•
On the FOX3 transmitter and receiver, configure the
RS-232
Insertion via PCS.
•
The control system is connected to the FOX3 Matrix Ethernet LAN port.
•
The control system then sends a control command through the receiver fiber SFP A
port, to the receiver captive screw port, to the display to take some action.
•
The response from the display is sent back to the control system.
