1.8 Installation
Avenview FO-DVI-XX-MM is composed of a Transmitter converting the graphic signal of a computer to optical
and Optical Fiber propagating the optical signal and Receiver supplying electrical signal to monitor converted
from the optical signal to electrical signal. The Transmitter should be connected to computer and the Receiver
should be connected to a monitor.
Avenview FO-DVI-XX-MM is designed to self-detect the resolution of the monitor and change the resolution
accordingly. Follow these steps for connecting to a device:
To setup Avenview FO-DVI-XX-MM follow these steps for connecting to a device:
1. Power on your display
2. Connect Transmitter to the PC and Receiver to the Display.
3. Connect the optical fiber between Transmitter and Receiver.
4. Restart the computer.
Use the DC power adapter (optional) with correct specification. The Transmitter which is connected to a
computer uses power from the computer.
Do not twist or pull by force the both ends of the optical cable. It may cause malfunction
