Instruction Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver
ID Pushbutton
The ID Pushbutton places the Wallplate TX in ID Mode for setting the NetLinx ID (device only) and
provides additional functionality, such as placing the device in Static IP Mode or DHCP Mode. For
complete information, see page 60.
Wallplate TX – Indicator LEDs
The Wallplate TX receives its power from a switcher through the DXLink (RJ-45) connection to a
DXLink Input Board in the switcher.
Important: We recommend determining the power budget to maintain power redundancy for the
system (see page 34).
The LED indicators are listed in the table as they appear on the front of the Wallplate TX from top to
bottom followed by the LEDs on the bottom edge.
Tip: If the Wallplate TX is installed in a location where it is difficult to check t the LEDs on the bottom
edge, slide a white piece of paper or a small mirror under the edge to view LED status.
* The LEDs for Digital Video, Analog Video, and Audio each indicate the configured state of the connectors, not
necessarily the presence of signals through the Wallplate TX.
Important: If the indicator LEDs for the Wallplate TX do not respond with a normal display as stated
in the table above, check all of the connections and the suggestions in the “Troubleshooting” chapter
(see page 91) before contacting technical support (see page 94).
