NOTE: The DM OUT port is a PoDM (Power over DM) or PoH (Power over HDBaseT) PD
(Powered Device) port. To receive PoDM or PoH, the DM-TX-401-C requires a connection to
a DigitalMedia™ switcher or other equipment that has a PoDM or PoH PSE (Power Sourcing
Equipment) port. Any wiring that is connected to a PoDM or PoH PSE port is for intra-building
use only and should not be connected to a line that runs outside of the building in which the
PSE is located.
DO Set the IP Address
The con guration of the DM-TX-401-C within the DigitalMedia 8G+™ system determines how
the IP address of the DM-TX-401-C is set:
• If the DM-TX-401-C connects to a DigitalMedia switcher, the DM-TX-401-C is con gured by
the switcher automatically.
• If the DM-TX-401-C connects to a DigitalMedia 8G+ receiver, the DM-TX-401-C uses its
own con guration settings. By default, DHCP (Dynamic Host Con guration Protocol) is
enabled. If desired, you can assign the default IP address to the DM-TX-401-C by holding
down the SETUP button while the unit boots up. The default IP address 192.168.1.234
overwrites the current setting. To manually set a different IP address, use Crestron
Toolbox™.
DO Select Inputs
By default, automatic switching of inputs is enabled. Automatic switching causes inputs to
switch according to the following priorities:
• Video switching priority: DisplayPort, HDMI, RGB, composite
• Audio switching priority: DisplayPort, HDMI, 1/8” analog, dual RCA analog
The AUTO LED on the front panel of the DM-TX-401-C lights to indicate that automatic switching
is enabled.
To manually select the desired audio/video input, press the SELECT button on the front panel of
the DM-T X-401-C until the corresponding LED lights (refer to illustration ).
