The TPS-TX/RX95 extenders are not PoE-compatible, thus, they are not able to send/receive power to/from the SW4-TPS-TW240 transmitter. Mounting To mount the device Lightware supplies optional accessories for different usage. There are two kinds of mounting kits with similar fixing method. The transmitter has two mounting holes with inner thread on the bottom side. Fasten the device by the screws enclosed with the accessory. Under-desk double mounting kit 1U high rack shelf The Under-desk double mounting kit makes it easy to mount a single device on any flat surface, e.g. furniture. The 1U high rack shelf provides mounting holes for fastening two half- rack or four quarter-rack sized units. Pocket-sized devices can also be fastened on the shelf. To order mounting accessories please contact sales@lightware.com. Using different (e.g. longer) screws may cause damage to the device. The transmitter is half-rack sized. Locking DC plug Twist 90° clockwise to lock. Further information The User's manual of this appliance is available at www.lightware.com. See the Downloads section on the dedicated product page.

Software Control Using Lightware Device Controller (LDC) The device can be controlled from a computer through the Ethernet port using Lightware Device Controller. Please download the application from www.lightware.com, install on a Windows PC or a macOS and connect to the device via the Ethernet port. LDC software contains many useful built-in tools which can be used for signal analysis like the following: Frame Detector Lightware's Frame Detector function works like an input signal analyzer and makes it possible to determine the exact video format that is sent by the source, thus, helping identify many problems (e.g. timing parameter difference).

The settings of the test pattern are available via LDC, see the available patterns below: TPS Cable Diagnostics The estimated cable length and the quality of the link are measured periodically and the diagnostic window shows the values in real-time. If the green bars hit the first line in the middle they turn into red. It means the number of the errors during the extension is higher than recommended. The link might be alive but recovering of the received data is not guaranteed. Types of IR Connectors (1/8" TRS / TS) 2 pole, 1 ring: IR transmitter 3 pole, 2 rings: IR receiver For more information about audio cable wiring see the user's manual of the device or the Wiring Guide on our website www.lightware.com.
