Status area
The status area provides visual indications of the connection
status.
• RGB indicator — This indicator is green when the
transmitter detects a sync signal on its video input:
 Horizontal sync (H) (for RGBHV video)
 Composite sync (S) (for RGBS video)
 Green (Sync on green) (G) (for RGsB or RsGsBs video)
 DVI video
• Audio indicator — This indicator is green when the
transmitter detects a low level audio signal for a short
period of time. This indicator goes dark if the audio
signal drops below the minimum threshold for a short
period of time.
• Link 1 indicator — This indicator is green when the
receiver detects light on the ber optic cable Tx.
N
The receiver detects the transmitter Tx to receiver Rx
light. It reports the status to the transmitter via the
optional Rx cable.
If you are connected to the transmitter's Configuration
port, and the secondary (receiver Tx to transmitter Rx)
cable is not connected in your system or the receiver is in
the daisy chain configuration, the control program's Link
1 indicator will not show green (detected), whether the
receiver detects the link or not.
• Link 2 (Optional) indicator — This indicator is green
when the transmitter detects light on the ber optic cable
Rx.
N
The transmitter detects the receiver Tx to transmitter
Rx light. It reports the status to the receiver via the Tx
cable.
If you are connected to the receiver's Configuration
port, and the primary (transmitter Tx to receiver Rx)
cable is disconnected or the receiver is in the daisy chain
configuration, the control program's Link 2 indicator
will not show green (detected), whether the transmitter
detects the link or not.
The Status area also shows to which unit the controlling PC is
connected, the FOXBOX 4G model (multimode or singlemode),
the internal temperature, and the video input frequency. The
"Other Side" entry is the device connected to the far end of the
ber optic cable.
Memory Preset area
The Memory Preset area provides a means to save and recall
memory presets. Memory presets are stored values of the
horizontal and vertical position and sizing information saved
in nonvolatile memory. When the FOXBOX 4G is powered
down and later powered back up, the settings are available for
selection using the Recall button. Saving the settings to a preset
using the Save button overwrites the settings previously written
to that preset.
Mute area
Click the Video Mute and/or Audio Mute radio buttons in the
Mute area to turn the video and/or audio mutes on and off.
N
When the video output is RGB and the output is muted,
the receiver mutes the red, green, and blue planes, but
leaves the sync plane(s) (horizontal and vertical or
composite sync) live so that there is no loss of sync in the
display device.
N
When you mute or unmute the output, the setting is
changed in the receiver. It reports the changes to the
transmitter via the optional receiver Tx to transmitter
Rx cable.
If you are connected to the transmitter's Configuration
port, and the receiver Tx to transmitter Rx cable is not
connected in your system or the receiver is in the daisy
chain configuration, you can still mute the output in the
control program's Mute area, but the program cannot
report the position values. The Set video (or audio)
mute On or Off message is displayed for approximately
1 second (figure 3-3).
