1 Introduction Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis.
2 Getting Started We recommend that you: Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for possible future shipment Review the contents of this user manual Use Kramer high-performance, high-resolution cables i 2.1 Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com/support/product_downloads.asp to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).
3 Overview The 610T and 610R are a detachable optical transmitter and receiver for sending DVI signals with resolutions of up to 1920x1200 at 60Hz over LC optical cable. The 610T attaches to the transmitter side of a fiber optical cable and the 610R connects to the receiver end and both are sold as a set. The 610T and 610R feature: A maximum data rate of 1.
3.1 Defining EDID The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is a data-structure provided by a display, to describe its capabilities to a graphics card (that is connected to the display’s source). The EDID enables the computer to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to the output. The EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, the product type, the timing data supported by the display, the display size, luminance data and (for digital displays only) the pixel mapping data.
4 Using the Detachable Optical DVI System This section describes how to: 4.1 Capture the EDID of the display device (see Section 4.1) Connect the detachable optical DVI transmitter and receiver (see Section 4.2) Troubleshooting the 610T and 610R ((see Section 4.3) Capturing the EDID The 610T and 610R are connected via four channels that transmit R, G, B and clock signals. The EDID of the display device is captured onto the transmitter for the computer to read.

Set the EDID of the display device (see Section 4.1). 2. Plug the 610T DVI connector directly to the DVI connector of the computer. Do not use any intermediate cable or adapter between them. 3.
You can use the power supplied through a DVI pin from the graphic cards instead of using the power adapter. After completing the installation, if the system does not seem to work properly, reconnect the power adapter while the system is powered. 8. Set up the screen resolution as required.

Be sure that the resolution is set for WUXGA (1920 x 1200) at 60Hz, or lower Reset the system Disconnect and reconnect the optical DVI cables i 8 Be sure that at all times the cables are stored and used away from liquid or dirt.
