1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the LINDY Extender C5 Pro set which allows you to place the controlling keyboard,
video monitor, mouse, audio accessories (and also a serial device) up to 00 metres from a system. The LINDY
Extender C5 Pro set consists of two modules: a local module that attaches to your computer system and a
remote module to which the peripherals are connected. The long distance link between the two modules is
made via Category 5, or higher, twisted pair cabling.
Internal circuitry within the remote module ensures crisp video images by automatically compensating for the
length of the twisted pair cable run.
Throughout this document, the LINDY Extender C5 Pro is
commonly abbre iated to Extender C5

2. Installation
The installation of the Extender C5 set is straightforward and can best be achieved in most cases by
following these stages for each module:
• Check or set the configuration switch settings
• Mount the module
• Connect the cables
2.1 Configuration switch settings
The basic operations of the LOCAL and REMOTE modules are controlled by the banks of four switches located
on the side of each module. The switches are monitored at all times and may be changed when power is on or
off (the only exception to this rule is switch 1 of the LOCAL module which initiates slightly different functions
depending on the power state when it is switched).
LOCAL Switch 1
OFF: Normal operation
ON: (Before power is applied) Places the LOCAL module into flash upgrade mode so that the internal
software can be changed. (See section 6. Flash upgrade procedure)
ON: (Whilst power is applied) Places the REMOTE module into password override mode. This allows any
pre-configured passwords to be altered – particularly useful when they have been lost or forgotten. (See
section 5.5 Password override.)
Note: When shipped, all switches are set in the OFF positions and this will produce normal operation with
normal microphone input (at the REMOTE module.)

LOCAL Switch 2
OFF: Normal operation.
ON: Set transparent mode. Use this setting if the Extender C5 modules are to be used with KVM switches
that are not manufactured by LINDY Electronics. Cascaded KVM switches often use special signals to
set or identify conditions. In transparent mode, the Extender C5 modules will pass the signals without
attempting to interpret them.
LOCAL Switch 3
OFF: Microphone input on REMOTE module. Use this setting if a standard mono-channel microphone is
connected to the microphone input on the REMOTE unit.
ON: Stereo line-in input on REMOTE module. Use this setting if a stereo input is applied to the microphone
input on the REMOTE unit.
LOCAL Switch 4
OFF: Normal operation.
ON: Suspend operation and reset the LOCAL module. Use this setting momentarily to produce the same
effect as removing and restoring power if incorrect operation has occurred. Return the switch to the OFF
position to allow normal operation to continue.
