One-to-many connection (cascade of gigabit switches):

Transmitter-LKV982KVM-4K-60Hz-HDMI-KVM-Optical-Extender-fig-7

Note

  • It is suggested to use gigabit (1000 Mbps) switches in LAN transmission, and 1 00Mbps switches should not be mixed with gigabit switches when cascading.

Connection Instructions

  1. Connect the source device to the HDMI IN port of the transmitter with an HDMI cable, and connect the HDM I OUT port of the receiver to the display device with another HDMI cable.
  2. If it’s one-to-one connection, then use a LC fiber optic cable to connect the SFP port of the transmitter and receiver. If it is one-to-many connection, then use the gigabit switch as a bridge to connect the transmitter and the receivers with the LC fiber optic cables respectively.
  3. If using HDMI loop out, connect the display device to the HDMI OUT port of the transmitter.
  4. If using the KVM function, connect the keyboard/mouse to the USB port of the receiver and connect the computer to the USB port of the transmitter via the USB cable
  5. If you need to output additional audio sources from the receiver or extend only L/R stereo audio, connect the receiver’s L/R OUT port to the audio device using a 3.5mm stereo audio cable.*
  6. Plug the power supply into the devices to get started.
  • When the HDMI IN port of the transmitter is connected and the L/R IN port is not connected, the HDMI audio source can output from the HDMI OUT and L/R OUT ports of the receiver simultaneously.
  • When the HDMI IN port and the L/RIN port of the transmitter is both connected, the L/R stereo audio source can output from the HDMI OUT and L/R OUT ports of the receiver simultaneously.
  • When the L/R IN port of the transmitter is connected and the HDMI IN is not connected, it can be used as an audio extender, the L/R stereo audio source can only output from the L/R OUT port of the receiver.
RS-232 function

Baud rate

  • Different encoding mechanisms cannot be mixed, the baud rate of the RS-232 port of this transmitter and receiver is 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400,57600, 115200.

Line order

Make sure the RS-232 serial line is firmly connected and that the serial data line is connected correctly as follows:

Transmitter-LKV982KVM-4K-60Hz-HDMI-KVM-Optical-Extender-fig-8

  • If the RS-232 serial does not work by following the above connection, please try to change the order of the TXD line and RXD line.

Check baud rate

If you need to check the baud rate, set the baud rate value of the serial port test tool to the default value of 115200, connect the serial port test tool to the product, and then power on the product. The baud rate printed at this time is the current baud rate. For example: “Baudrate:9600”, that is, the baud rate value is 9600.

Set baud rate

For example: the baud rate of the product is 9600, and the baud rate of the serial port test tool is 115200. At this time, the baud rate of the serial port test tool must be set to 9600, which is consistent with the product, and then input the command you want to set “Bset:19200”, if “Succeed” is displayed after sending data, the baud rate 19200 is set successfully.

FAQ

  • Q: Why the status indicator is off?
    1. A: Please check whether all equipment is powered on and the LC fiber optic cable is connected properly.
  • Q: Why is the status indicator has been flashing?
    1. A: Please check whether there is HDMI signal input for the TX.
    2. Try to connect the signal source directly to the display device, or try to change the signal source and HDMI cable and test again.
  • Q: Why is the output image unstable?
    1. A: Check whether the length of the LC fiber optic cable is within the specified range.
    2. The length of HDMI cable is recommended to beTransmitter-LKV982KVM-4K-60Hz-HDMI-KVM-Optical-Extender-fig-9 5 meters.
    3. Press the “reset” button on TX and RX panels to restart and reconnect.
