1. Introduction
1.1 About HDMI Matrix Switcher CSW-HD1616
CSW-HD1616 is a high-performance digital signal switcher t hat ca n be used for cross switching
of multi computer and audio si gnal. Independent HDMI component and I/O terminals make each
component signal transm it and switch separately; this design can reduce attenuation of sign al
transmission to minimum and out put the image and audio signal in hig h-fidelity quality.
CSW-HD1616 mostly apply in broadcasting TV engi neer ing, multi-media meeting room, big
screen display engineeri ng, television education, comm and control center and other fields. With
RS232 interface, it can be w or ked with PC, remote control syste m and a ny other far-end control
system devices.

5. Operation of the EDID management
MHD matrix switcher is bu ilt in the EDID management databas e. The EDID management can be

automatically shake han d, or manual exchanged, and factory r est or e.
6.1 EDID automatically shake hand
CSW-HD1616 is built in the EDID data, which can communicat e w it h t he displayers and video source
automatically. When the display er s or video sources are connected to t he MHD matrix switcher, they
will share the EDID/DDC information with the matrix switcher.
The MHD EDID database includes most popular displayin g dat a, but not all the displaying data
because of the capability and firmware limitation. So, w e can manually refresh the EDID dat a to update
the EDID data base.
6.2 EDID management of MHD matrix
The RS232 commands for EDID management of MHD matrix models include: “EDIDMAuto.”
”EDIDMInit.” and ”EDIDM[X]B[Y].”, (Please notice the text-transform, and t he dot in behind.)
6.2.1 Erase and Refres h t he E DID data
The EDID refresh ports have the priority grade when the matr i x is ex ecuting the EDIDMAuto function,
ranging from output 1 to out put 8 in pri or it y order. It means the output 1 is the most prior to exchange
the EDID data, and then the output 2 is the second prior to exchange the EDID data. And, the output 8
is the last prior.
When the user carries the EDID erase/ r efresh function, the MHD will dete ct t he out put priority and
exchange the EDID data w ith t he available most prior output port.
6.2.2 Auto EDID management
The way for auto EDID m anagement is by sending RS232 commands “EDIDMAuto.”. When the
“EDIDMAuto.” is sent, the MHD matrix switcher will copy the EDID data from the most prior output port.
It means the MHD will er ase the o ld EDID d ata, and fully copy the EDI D data fr om the disp layer whi ch is
connected to the most prior out put por t . The feedback command is “EDIDMAuto”.

6.2.3 EDID restore to factory default
EDID management by RS 232 command
When we send the “EDIDMInit.” to the MHD matrix switcher, it will recover t he factory default EDID dat a.
The feedback command is “EDIDMInit”.
6.2.4 Manually EDID switching
EDID management by RS 232 command
When we send the RS232 command “EDIDM[X]B[Y].”. The matrix will copy the EDID data of output[X]
to the input[Y]. The fee dback command is “EDIDM: [X]To[Y]”.
6.3.5 RS232 feedback:
When a RS232 command is correctly sent, all the connected displayer s will be blank for 2~3 seconds
and recover again. And, the MHD matrix switcher will send out the RS232 feedback command.
If all these symbols works, it means the action is taken.
6. Operation of the Control Panel
7.1 Front Panel Description

7.2 Command Format of the Switching Operation
With the front control panel, t he CSW-HD1616 matrix could be cont r ol directly and rapidly by pressing
the buttons under below form at .
CSW-HD1616: “Input Channel” + “Switch Mode” +“Output Cha nnel 1”+“Enter”
“Switch Mode”: Audio & Video synchronal or break away switch ing mo de, which includes buttons “AV”,
“Audio”, “Video”.
“Input Channel”: Fill with t he number of input channel to be cont r ol led, t he i nput channels on the rear
panel are counting from left t o r ight, top to bottom. A nd if the input channel is two digits nu mb er, the
input delay time between tw o numbers must less than 5 seconds; ot her w i se t he operation will be
cancelled.
“Output Channel”: Fi ll with the number of output channels to be control, the output channels on the r ear
panel are counting from left t o r ight, top to bottom. A nd if the output channel is two digits number, the
input delay time between tw o numbers must less than 5 seconds; ot her w i se t he operation will be
cancelled.
Below shows the function but tons of CSW-HD1616:
CSW-HD1616 needs to use “,” button to
separate multiple outputs, and “ENTER” button
to confirm the operation. MHD88 does not need
these for all the output channel numbers are

8. Usage of the Remote Controller
With the infrared remote cont r ol ler, the matrix sw it cher could be control remotely. Because the function
buttons on the remote cont r oller are t he same with the ones on the front cont rol panel, the remote
controller shares the same control operation and command format with the control panel.

11. Troubleshooting & Maintenance
1) When the output image in the destinat io n device connected to the HDMI Matrix (MHD) has ghost,
such as the projector output with ghost, please check the projector’s setting or try another high
quality connection cord.
2) When there is a color losing or no v ideo s ignal output,，Maybe the HDMI cables haven’t been
connected asHDMI criterion
3) When the remote controller doesn’t works:
A. Maybe the battery is run out of, please ch ange a new one.
B. Maybe the controller is broken, plea se ask the dealer to fix it.
4) When user cannot control the HDMI M atrix (M HD) by computer thr ough it s COM port, ple ase che ck
the COM port number in the software and make sure the COM port is in go od condition.
5) If there is not “beep” sound when sw itching the I/O signal, please ma ke s ur e t he beeper is
switched-on. If so, the beeper inside the matrix may be broken. Please send it to the dealer for
fixing.
6) When switching , the beeper beeps but without any output image：
A. Check with oscilloscope or multimeter if t here is any signa l at the input end. If ther e is no sign a l
input, it may be the input connection cord broken or the connectors loosen.
B. Check with oscilloscope or multimeter if there is any signal at the output e nd. If there is no
signal output, it may be the out put connection cord broken or the connect or s l oosen.
C. Please make sure the destination device is exactly on the controlled output channel
D. If it is still the same after the above ch ecking, it may be something wrong in the switcher.
Please send it to the dealer for fixing.
7) If the output image is interfered, please make sure the system is earthed well.
8) If the static becomes stronger when connecting the HDMI connect or s, it m ay be due to the
incorrect earthling of the power supply, Please earth it again correct ly, and ot herwise it would bring
damage to the switcher or shor t en its nat ural life.
9) If the Matrix can not be controlled by t he keys on the front panel, RS232 port or remote controller,
the host may has already been broken. Please send it to the dealer for f ixi ng.
