Operation

The AdderLink XD150FX modules are designed to be transparent in operation; all peripherals should respond exactly as they would when situated next to your host computer.

INDICATORS

The transmitter and receiver modules contain various indicators to provide you with status information. Both modules have four red indicators on their front panels.

Red status indicators

The red status indicators on the front panels of each module mostly behave in the same manner at the same time:

graph TD
    A["PWRUS"] --> B["LNK"]
    A --> C["USB"]
    A --> D["VID"]
    A --> E["PWR"]
    B --> F["This indicator will be on once the link between the transmitter and receiver modules is established. Flashes to warn that a non-approved SFP module has been fitted."]
    C --> G["This indicator will be on once the USB extender and hub located within the receiver module have been successfully enumerated by the USB host on your computer. Flashes to indicate the USB system has entered suspend mode. Ensure that one or more USB devices are attached to the receiver module and a valid USB link is made between the transmitter module and the host computer."]
    D --> H["This indicator will be on (on both modules) when a valid video signal is detected."]
    E --> I["This indicator will be on when power is supplied to each module."]

Green and amber status indicators (transmitter module only)

The green and amber status indicators on the network management port connector of the transmitter module (rear panel) provide further status information:

graph TD
    A["Switch"] --> B["Amber"]
    A --> C["Green"]
    B --> D["This indicator will flash when data is being transferred."]
    C --> E["This indicator will be on whenever there is a valid link between the transmitter module and a network switch."]

RESETTING A MODULE

On the left side of the front panel of each module, you will find a small hole which is used to invoke special functions. Use a thin implement, such as a straightened paperclip to press and hold the button concealed behind the smaller hole. Depending on when you release the button, the module will either perform a normal reset or completely reset itself to factory defaults:
