Ensure the cable is properly terminated and meets the required specifications for the desired distance and resolution.
- IR-Kabel anschließen (optional):
- To control the source device from the display location: Connect the IR Receiver cable to the IR IN port on the Receiver (RX) unit and place its eye near your display. Connect the IR Transmitter cable to the IR-AUSGANG port on the Transmitter (TX) unit and place its emitter eye near the IR sensor of your source device.
- To control the display device from the source location: Connect the IR Receiver cable to the IR IN port on the Transmitter (TX) unit and place its eye near your source device. Connect the IR Transmitter cable to the IR-AUSGANG port on the Receiver (RX) unit and place its emitter eye near the IR sensor of your display device.
- Kraft anwenden: Connect the two provided DC 12V power adapters to the Gleichstrom 12 V input ports on both the Transmitter (TX) and Receiver (RX) units. Plug the power adapters into electrical outlets.
- Einschalten: Power on your HDMI source device and display device. The extender units are plug-and-play and should establish a connection automatically.
