Step 8

Power up the host and peripheral equipment. At this point, there must be no

external power supplies plugged into the M4-200 upstream or downstream

boxes,

Step 9

Observe the Power Light Emitting Diode on the side of the boxes.

If the upstream box LED is illuminated, no external power supply is

required.

Likewise if the downstream box LED is illuminated, no external power

supply is required.

Step 10

If both Power LEDs are illuminated, then the Firewire link is active. Proceed

with the software bring-up on the host system. Ignore further steps

Step 11

If one or both of the upstream/downstream Power LEDs are dark, then power

down all equipment and plug in one or two Opticis power supplies.

Step 12

Power up complete system. Both upstream/downstream LEDs should be

illuminated. Proceed with host software bring-up.

Do NOT plug in external power to the box if the PWR LED is on

after the M4-200 repeater is connected to a live host or powered peripheral.

Installation

Important: Please use the installation procedure below. Improper, or no

operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.

Step 1

Carefully unpack the contents of the shipping group.

Step 2

Ensure no

host or peripheral equipment is powered up.

Step 3

The M4-200 Firewire repeater boxes are identical. Identify one as upstream

(or host) and downstream (or peripheral).

Step 4

Prepare a duplex LC patch cord fiber-optic cable (Multi-Mode Glass Optical

Fiber with 62.5/125 µm or 50.0/125 µm core). Attach the two LC connector

fiber cables first

with no power applied to any system component as follows:

Tx (Upstream) to Rx (Downstream)

Rx (Upstream) to Tx (Downstream)

Step 5

Connect the upstream box to the host computer using a copper Firewire cable

by plugging into the host computer Firewire card and the upstream box

Firewire port (either one)

Step 6

Connect the downstream box to the peripheral equipment in a similar manner.

Step 7

If there are non-Opticis external power supplies to be attached, do so now.

e.g. block power supplies for laptop Firewire PC cards, downstream

appliances, etc. Do NOT

attach the Opticis power supplies until instructed to

do so.
