FOX Extenders Control Program
The Extron FOX Extenders Control Program, which communicates with the transmitter and
receiver pair via the Remote RS-232 port of either unit provides an easy way to operate the
pair.
The program is compatible with Windows 2000, Windows XP, or later. Updates to this
program can be downloaded from the Extron website (www.extron.com).
Installing the Software
The program is contained on a DVD. To install the software, insert the DVD into the drive.
The Extron software DVD window should appear automatically. If it does not self-start, run
Launch.exe from the DVD. Click the Software tab, scroll to the desired program, and click
Install. Follow the instructions that appear on the screen. By default, the installation
creates a C:\Program Files\Extron\FOX_Extenders directory, and it places four icons into a
group folder named “Extron Electronics\FOX Extenders.” The four installed icons are:
• Check for FOX Extenders updates
• FOX Extenders
• FOX Extenders Help
• Uninstall FOX Extenders
