receiver (Rx) and also identifies the power input (5 VDC)
and the fiber optic port numbers (1, 2, 3, and 4).
Bottom Panel Features

g EDID Minder storage button (transmitter only) — A recessed switch
activates the transmitter to capture and store EDID information from the display
device. This allows the source device to provide a signal with a resolution
and refresh rate matching the needs of the display device (see “Setup and
Operation” ).
Setup and Operation
When using the DVI 104 Tx/Rx for the first time or if the display device is changed, it is essential to set up the EDID Minder. The
setup process places EDID information on a EEPROM chip in the transmitter, which allows the video source to boot up correctly. This
process is described below in steps 1-6. If you have already set up the EDID Minder, proceed to step 7.
1. Ensure that the source, the display, the transmitter, and the receiver are all powered off and that the fiber optic cables are
unplugged from the transmitter and the receiver.
2. Apply power to the transmitter by inserting the cable from the external power supply into the input jack. The LEDs should
illuminate a solid green.
