Overview

3 Overview

The high performance Kramer 610T and 610R have a transmission range of

up to 1640 ft. (500 meters) of single link high-resolution digital graphic data

over four fiber optic cables1with LC connectors. The 610T converts electrical

signals to optical signals and the 610R decodes the optical signals back to

electrical signals. The transmitter can read the display device’s EDID2, and

once it is connected to the computer, it provides this data3

In particular, the 610T/610R pair:

•Is EMI/RFI cable free

•Provides a single-link DVI-D connection4

•Supports DVI1.0 and DDC2B, fully implemented by fiber-optic

communication

•Supports resolutions exceeding WUXGA at 60Hz or 1.65Gbps bandwidth

per graphic channel

•Transmits one red, one green and one blue channel, and one clock with a

1 pixel/clock mode −over the fiber optic cables, with 2 duplex LC fiber

connectors

•Complies with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15

and 2 of FCC and CE

•Does not require any special memory size, CPU speed and chipsets, when

using a computer

1 Multi-mode glass fiber cables with LC connections must be used

2 Extended Display Identification Data

3 See section 5.1

4 With no HDCP support

Overview

To achieve the best performance:

•Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,

deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise-

levels (often associated with low quality cables)

•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your

Kramer 610R and 610T away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.

Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power

wall adapter that is provided with this unit1

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall

before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

3.1 Powering the 610T and the 610R

The Kramer 610T can be powered either by an external power adapter or

internally by the 5V pin on the DVI card of the computer. The 610T

automatically detects if it is being powered via the external power adapter, and

if so, the internal power supply will be cut off.

The 610R module must always be powered by the power adapter.

Most laptops require that the external power adapter is used for the

transmitter.

5 Using the Detachable Optical DVI System

This section describes how to:

•Capture the EDID of the display device

•Connect the detachable optical DVI transmitter and receiver

5.1 7BThe Display Device EDID

The 610T and 610R are connected via four channels that transmit R, G, B and

clock signals. The EDID of the display device is captured onto the transmitter

for the computer to read.

Using the Detachable Optical DVI System

5.1.1 Defining EDID

The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID1

5.1.2 Capturing the Virtual EDID

) is a data-structure,

provided by a display, to describe its capabilities to the DVI graphics source

(for example, the graphics card of the computer). The EDID enables the

computer to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to the output. The

EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, the product type, the phosphor or

filter type, the timing data supported by the display, the display size,

luminance data and, for digital displays only, the pixel mapping data.

You can capture the EDID of the display device on the 610T so that when the

computer connects to the 610T, it will read the virtual EDID information and

identify the display device. This procedure is performed only once for the

connected display device. After storing the EDID, the system can be

connected and disconnected without having to set the EDID again. If the

display device is replaced, the new EDID should be set on the 610T

transmitter.

To capture the EDID of a display device, do the following:

1. Connect the 5V power adapter to the power socket of the 610T, and connect

the adapter to the mains electricity.

The Indication LED lights.

2. Push the Auto EDID button (illustrated in Figure 2), using a thin screwdriver.

3. Connect the 610T unit directly to the display device.

The Indication LED blinks several times while reading the EDID.

4. When the Indication LED stops blinking, disconnect the power.

5. Disconnect the 610T.

The EDID information is now stored and the Indication LED is on.

5.2 Connecting the Detachable Optical DVI Transmitter/Receiver

To connect the 610T Detachable Optical DVI Transmitter with the 610R

Detachable Optical DVI Receiver, as the example in Figure 4 illustrates, do

the following:

1. Set the EDID of the display device (see section 5.1).

2. Plug the 610T DVI connector directly1

3. Connect the 610R to the 5V DC power adapter and connect the adapter to the

mains electricity.The Indication LED is on.

to the DVI connector of the computer.

4. Connect the 610R DVI connector directly1to the DVI connector of the display

device.

5. Connect the duplex LC fiber cables2

to the 610T and 610R modules, one

cable at a time, as illustrated in .

to the

610T transmitter, and connect the adapter to the mains electricity.

50/125µm core

3 You can use the power supplied through a DVI pin from the graphic cards instead of using the power adapter. After

completing the installation, if the system does not seem to work properly, reconnect the power adapter while the system is

powered

5.3 Avoiding Pitfalls using the 610T and 610R

In the event that any of these problems occur, we recommend the following:

If the display device shows only a black screen:

•Make sure that all the AC and DC plugs and jacks used by the external

power supplies are firmly connected

•Be sure that the DVI ports are firmly plugged into the computer and the

display device, and be sure that the Transmitter and Receiver modules are

correctly plugged into the computer and display device, respectively

•Check if the computer and display are powered ON and properly booted

•Reset the system by unplugging and then replugging the Transmitter DVI

port or Receiver DVI port and then reboot the system

If the screen is distorted or displays noise:

•Check if the graphics resolution is properly set

•Go to the Display Properties of Windows and check the settings

•Be sure that the resolution is set for WUXGA (1,920 x 1,200) at 60Hz, or lower

•Reset the system

•Disconnect and reconnect the optical DVI cables

Be sure that at all times the cables are stored and used away from liquid or dirt
