Instruction Manual – DXLink Fiber™ Transmitters and Receivers, Duplex
In a system where DXLink Fiber Transmitters and Receivers are used in conjunction with an Enova DGX 8/16/32/64,
the cable runs from a Transmitter to a DXLink Fiber Input Board and from a DXLink Fiber Output Board to a Receiver
depend on the quality of the cable (see cable specifications on page 28).
Tip: For systems with special requirements – Before installing in the final location, place the equipment close
together, so that the destination monitor and a PC for control can be seen simultaneously if adjustments are
necessary. Scaling adjustments can be made using SEND_COMMANDs (see page 66). For Enova DGX
Digital Media Switcher systems, DGX Configuration Software can also be used to make scaling adjustments
via the switcher (see the switcher’s “Instruction Manual”).
Custom EDID Settings
If your system has special EDID requirements, see page 130 for information on managing and programming custom
EDIDs.
