OPERATION NOTES
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the new ex•tend•it DVI•3000HD series by Gefen, Inc.
The DVI•3000HD by Gefen allows users the benets of extending a DVI display, USB,
and RS232 up to 6.25 miles away. In a growing number of applications, broadcast sta-
tions, production facilities and even military divisions need to sercurely remote control a
computer. Remote controlling a computer over the internet can be slow and inaccurate;
but with the DVI•3000HD, you have a physical connection to your CPU. It is as if you are
locally connected to the computer.

DDC
Short form for Display Data Channel. It is a VESA standard for communication between
a monitor and a video adapter. Using DDC, a monitor can inform the video card about its
properties, such as maximum resolution and color depth. The video card can then use
this information to ensure that the user is presented with valid options for conguring
the display
DDWG
Digital Display Working Group DDWG are the creators of the DVI specication.
DVI
Digital Visual Interface. Connection standard developed by Intel for connecting computers
to digital monitors such as at panels and DLP projectors. A consumer electronics version,
not necessarily compatible with the PC version, is used as a connection standard for
HDTV tuners and displays. Transmits an uncompressed digital signal to the display. The
latter version uses HDCP copy protection to prevent unauthorized copying
USB
Universal Serial Bus. An external peripheral interface standard for communication between
a computer and external peripherals over a cable using bi-serial transmission.
VESA
Video Electronic Standards Association, a consortium of manufacturers formed to
establish and maintain industry wide standards for video cards and monitors. VESA was
instrumental in the introduction of the Super VGA and Extended VGA video graphics
standards with a refresh rate of 70 Hz, minimizing icker and helping to reduce user
eyestrain and fatigue.
RS-232
Recommended Standard 232. This is the de facto standard for communication through
PC serial ports. It can refer to cables and ports that support the RS232 standard.
