Turning On/O HDMI outputs

It is possible to turn o each individual HDMI output using RS-232, TCP/IP or in-built Web GUI interface. This can be helpful when using panels
with a 'signal sense' power on/o feature.

Please see page 17 for list of product RS-232 and Telnet commands.

Note: There is no indication on the front panel to inform users that the outputs of the Matrix have been turned o. If you are unsure of the
status of the zone outputs you can force all outputs back on in one of two ways:

• Powering OFF/ON the matrix. All outputs will be turned on when powered up.

• Zone outputs can be forced back on by pressing and holding ‘OUTPUT 1’ button on the front panel for 10 seconds. The matrix will
reset and all outputs will be turned back on.

EDID Management - Global or individual input settings

The following characters show adjusting the EDID for ‘All’ inputs (Global). Current EDID value is DF00 (Default setting 0) which is 1080p @ 60Hz.

EDID: IN ALL DF00
HDMI: 1080P @ 60HZ

To change the EDID value for source inputs using the Matrix front panel buttons press the following:-

a. Press MENU button.

b. Panel will display ‘EDID settings’. Press SELECT button

c. Select the input you wish to fix the EDID on (1-4) or select ‘All’. Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and ENTER button to

confirm.

d. Select video resolution required (1080p, 1080i DVI etc). Use UP/DOWN buttons to toggle selection and SELECT button to confirm.

Options are standard EDID settings (DF00-DF04) or 'COPY' EDID from outputs 1-4.

e. Press the ESC button to exit.

MX44VW USER MANUAL

EDID Control

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This
data is used by the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display then from this
information the source will discover what the best audio and video resolutions need to be outputted.

While the objective of EDID is to make connecting a digital display to a source a simple plug and play procedure
issues do arise when multiple displays or video matrix switching is introduced because of the increased number of
variables.

By pre-determining the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time
need for EDID hand shaking thus making switching quicker and more reliable.

Configuration of Matrix EDID settings can be acheived in one of four ways:-

1 Using Matrix PC Soware (See ‘Blustream Matrix Soware Guide’ for further details available at www.

blustream.co.uk)

2 Using Matrix web browser interface (See ‘Blustream Web Browser Interface Guide’ for further details

available at www.blustream.co.uk )

3 Using Matrix Front Panel Buttons (For further details see page 6)

4 Using Supplied Blustream Matrix IR Remote Control (For further details see page 13)

RS232 and Telnet Commands

The Blustream MX44VW can be controlled via serial and TCP/IP. The following pages list all available serial commands for the
MX44VW Matrix. Details of RS232 pin assignment can be found on page 5.

Commonly used Serial commands:

There are several commands that are commonly used for control and testing:-

STATUS Status will give feedback on Matrix such as zones on, type of connection etc
PON Power on
POFF Power o
OUTxxON (xx is the zone number you wish to turn on)

Example:- OUT01ON (This would turn output one back on)
OUTxxFRyy (xx is the zone out, yy is the input)
Example:- OUT01FR04 (This would switch output 1 to source input 4)

Common Mistakes

• Carriage return – Some programs do not require the carriage return where as other will not work unless sent directly aer the
string. In the case of some Terminal soware the token <CR> is used to execute a carriage return. Depending on the program you
are using this token maybe dierent. Some other examples that other control systems deploy include \r or 0D (in hex)

• Spaces – Blustream commands do not require space between commands unless specified. There may be some programs that
require spacing in order to work.

- How the string should look is as follows OUT01ON

- How the string may look if spaces are required: OUT{Space}01{Space}ON

• Baud rate or other serial protocol settings not correct - please see Page 5 for Matrix settings
