/CEC
1
Device 1
The Digital I/O ports on the HD CTL 100 rear panel let you connect a switch or sensor to
control other devices in the room that are connected to the HD CTL 100 IR/S control port.
The Digital I/O ports measure two states — high and low — of the connection between
the switch or sensor and the connected device. The port accepts 0 to 24 VDC input. The
threshold voltages are as follows:
• Voltage below 1.0 VDC is measured as logic low.
• Voltage above 1.5 VDC is measured as logic high.
There is also an internal, +5 VDC, selectable, pull-up resistor for this circuit. If a connected
device does not have its own power source and be powered through the controller,
select (via the HD CTL 100 configuration software) Input with Pullup for this port (see
the HD CTL 100 Configuration Program Help file to enable input with pullup).
In addition, you can program actions on this port, so that each time a high or low state is
detected, one or more functions are performed (see the configuration software help file to
configure the Digital I/O ports).
To wire the Digital I/O connector:
1. Connect a digital input or output device (such as a switch, relay device, or sensor) to
pin 1, 2, 3, or 4 and to one of the two G (ground) pins of the Digital I/O connector.
NOTE: Use the two 3-pole captive screw plugs provided with the HD CTL 100 to
connect devices to the 6-pole Digital I/O connector (no 6-pole plug is provided).
2. (Optional) If using an occupancy sensor or other device that requires +24 V
+V OUT
power and does not have a power supply, wire its power connector to the
rear panel HD CTL 100 +V OUT connector (see figure4, E, on page5,
and the illustration at right).

1
as an occupancy sensor, or a switch, such as a push-button device that can be
configured to be triggered by a press or release of the button.
• Digital output — Use one or more of the Digital I/O ports as a digital output to
control LEDs, incandescent lights, or other devices that accept a transistor-totransistor logic (TTL) signal. They can also provide contact closure control for
projector lifts, motorized screens, or room and light switches when attached to relay
devices. Each port can sync up to 250 mA.
NOTES:
• If the digital output port is set with pull-up disabled, the voltage output is set
by an external source.
• If the pull-up resistor is enabled, the voltage output is equal to approximately
+4.6 V.
Installing the LockIt HDMI Cable Lacing Brackets
The Extron LockIt lacing brackets make it possible to
simply and universally secure a standard HDMI cable

HD CTL 100 Controller • Installation and Operation 13
Remote Configuration and Control
HD CTL 100 can be remotely configured via a host computer that is attached to the front
panel USB port using the HD CTL 100 Configuration Program. This section describes
procedures for obtaining and accessing the configuration software, as well as providing a
list of the available SIS commands and the procedures for issuing them.
The following topics are covered:
• HD CTL 100 Configuration Program
• SIS Commands
HD CTL 100 Configuration Program
An HD CTL 100 controller must be configured in order for it to be able to control other
devices. The Extron HD CTL 100 Configuration Program enables you to set up the
HD CTL 100 rear panel ports and to update firmware. Using this program, you can create
configurations on your computer for your HD CTL 100 and then upload them to the controller
via the front panel USB port. (The HD CTL 100 does not have to be connected to the
computer while you are creating the configurations, only while uploading them.)
See Installation and Operation starting on page4, for explanations of the
configuration ports. See the configuration program help file to create and upload the
configurations.
Downloading and Installing the Configuration Program
The HD CTL 100 Configuration Program can be downloaded free of charge from the
Extron website. To obtain the configuration program, download it to your computer as
follows:
1. On the Extron website, hover the mouse pointer over the Download tab (see
figure13, 1, on the next page), then move the pointer to the Software link (2) in
the Downloads column and click it.

5. Follow the instructions on the subsequent screens to complete the software program
installation. By default, the configuration program files are stored on your computer at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Extron\HDCTL_100
If there is not already an Extron folder in your Program Files x86 folder, the
installation program creates it as well.
Starting the Configuration Program
To use the HD CTL 100 to control devices, you must create one or more configurations for
it, using the HD CTL 100 Configuration Program. A configuration is a set of specifications
for command assignments and port parameters that enable the HD CTL 100 to control
your display device.
NOTES:
• Configurations can be created away from the job site and without the
HD CTL 100 being connected to the computer.
• Uploading Configuration Time: The HD CTL 100 requires approximately one
minute to write the configuration to memory after the software indicates the
process is complete. The completion is indicated with multiple flashes from the
power LED on the front panel.
• Command Ordered List: When configuring commands within the software,
commands in the Selected Actions play/execute from the top of the list to the
bottom.
After you have downloaded and installed the program (see Downloading and Installing
the Configuration Program on page 14) and device drivers if necessary (see Obtaining
Device Drivers on page 19), begin by creating a new project.
An HD CTL 100 project is a file (with a .mli extension) that contains port configurations
for an HD CTL 100. A configuration must be created within a new or existing project.
A project can be saved, copied, and edited (for example, by adding or changing
configurations within it). You can also create a configuration and add it to an existing
project. You can start a new project either when first opening the HD CTL 100 program or
while the program is open and another project is active.
To start the configuration program:
1. Open the HD CTL 100 Configuration Program by selecting HD CTL 100 from the
computer Start menu. Click:

Obtaining Device Drivers
The Extron drivers are control files (libraries) of commands created by Extron that are
specific to a particular display device or switcher. There are different sets of drivers for
serial (RS-232) and IR control. Before you can use the configuration program to configure
the HD CTL 100 ports, the necessary drivers must be loaded onto your computer. You
must then select the driver appropriate to the HD CTL 100 for your device in order to
configure it to control the device. Serial and IR drivers are available at no charge from
www.extron.com. You can download them directly from the web or through the
configuration program.
NOTES: By default the downloaded drivers are stored in the Driver2 folder on your
computer, located at c:\Users\Public\Documents\Extron\Driver2
Downloading drivers using the configuration program

CEC Control
CEC can control standard functions on a display attached to the HDMI output by inserting
unidirectional CEC control commands. These commands are available to be issued via
the HD CTL 100 Configuration Program (see the program help file for instructions on using
the commands).
The following CEC commands are included in the HD CTL 100 firmware:
• Power on • Volume up
• Power off • Volume down
• Input selection • Audio mute (toggle on and off)
Using the configuration program, you can configure CEC commands to be sent to the
output device when:
• A digital input is triggered.
• Signal presence is detected or not detected.
• An action detected by a monitor (also set up via the configuration program) is
triggered.
You can also insert user-defined CEC commands to be issued to the display (see the
HD CTL 100 Configuration Program Help file for the procedure).
HD CTL 100 Controller • Remote Configuration and Control 25
SIS Commands
Host-to-Controller Communications
Default functionality
The HD CTL 100 is preconfigured with the following monitors and actions, which can be
reconfigured via the HD CTL 100 Configuration Program (see the program help file).
• When a stable HDMI (TMDS) signal is detected, the HD CTL 100 sends the CEC
Power On command to the connected sink (display).
• When no HDMI (TMDS) signal is present for 30 seconds, a CEC Power Off
command is sent to the connected sink.
You can reconfigure these monitors and actions using the HD CTL 100 Configuration
Program (see the program help file).
You can issue SIS commands to the HD CTL 100 via the USB interface of your computer
or control device with a communication software program such as Extron DataViewer.
SIS commands consist of strings of one or more characters per field. No special
characters are required to begin or end a command sequence. When the HD CTL 100
determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and sends a response to
the host device.
Most responses from the HD CTL 100 to the host end with a carriage return and a line
feed (CR/LF = ]), which signals the end of the response character string.
Controller-initiated Messages
When a local event takes place, the HD CTL 100 responds by sending a message to the
host, indicating what selection was entered. No response is required from the host.
Error Responses
If the HD CTL 100 is unable to execute a command it receives because the command is
invalid or contains invalid parameters, the controller returns an error response to the host.
This response consists of the letter E followed by a number and a carriage return with a
line feed. The following error response codes can be returned:
E10 – Invalid command or parameter
E13 – Invalid value (out of range)
Using the Command and Response Table
The Command and Response Table for SIS Commands on page 27 lists valid ASCII
command codes, the responses of the HD CTL 100 to the host, and a description of
the command function or the results of executing the command. The ASCII to Hex

• An occupancy sensor is mounted on the ceiling (see figure26, 5, on page29)
and is wired to:
• Digital I/O port 4 of the HD CTL 100, which is configured as an input (see
figure27, 2, on the previous page)
• The +VC Out connector of the HD CTL 100 (3), which provides +24 V of power
to the sensor
Configuring the Application Using the Software
The HD CTL 100 Configuration Software enables you to set up the controller to power the
display on and off at desired times or in response to specified conditions. To obtain the
software, see Downloading and Installing the Configuration Program on page14.
See the HD CTL 100 Configuration Program Help File (accessible via the Help menu
within the configuration program) for detailed information on using the software to
configure the controller. The three power on and off methods used in this application are
described in the following sections.
NOTES:
• Configurations can be created away from the job site and without the
HD CTL 100 being connected to the computer.
• Uploading Configuration Time: The HD CTL 100 requires approximately one
minute to write the configuration to memory after the software indicates the
process is complete. The completion is indicated with multiple flashes from the
power LED on the front panel.
• Command Ordered List: When configuring commands within the software,
commands in the Selected Actions play/execute from the top of the list to the
bottom.
31
Input Signal Detection
By default, the controller is configured to power the display on when an HDMI source
signal is present, and to power it off when no signal is detected for 30 seconds. The
Monitor Configuration screen is already set up by default to do this, and these default
settings are used to configure powering on and off via input signal detection.
Monitor screen defaults
Figure28 on the next page shows the Monitor Configuration screen defaults.
NOTE: You can easily change these default settings or add new actions if desired.
See the HD CTL 100 Configuration Software Help File for instructions.

NOTE: The selected tab is the one NOT shaded.
To view the actions that have been assigned by default to be performed if no input
signal is present, select the HDMI Input - Signal Not Present side tab. The screen
32
that is displayed is identical to the Signal Present screen shown in figure28, but
with the addition of a Signal Not Present Timer field in the lower-left corner (see
figure29).
Figure 29. Signal Not Present Timer Field on the HDMI Input - Signal Not
Present Screen
By default, this field is set to 30 secs, which means that the controller powers off the
display after 30 seconds if no input signal is detected.
By default, the CEC tab is selected in the Available Actions panel, displaying all the
3
available HDMI CEC commands (see figure28, 3).
By default, the HDMI CEC: Power On (CEC) command is added to the Selected
4
Actions panel. This causes the HD CTL 100 to power on the display when an input
signal is detected.
NOTE: You can also use serial or IR commands to control power of the display.
HD CTL 100 Controller • Application Example
32
Contact Closure Device
Another method of powering the display on and off is via a contact closure device. In
this application, a CCR 2BLB two-button switch is connected to Digital I/O port 1. Only
button 1 of the switch is used in this application, button 2 is not configured (see figures 26
and 27 for connection information). To configure button 1 of the CCR 2BLB to power the
display on and off, use the Digital I/O screens as follows:
1. When the HD CTL 100 Configuration Software is opened, the Digital I/O's tab is
selected by default. If this tab is not selected, click it.
2. By default, the Mode screen is displayed with the Digital I/O's tab is selected. If it
is not, click the Mode button (see figure30, 1).
Figure 30. Digital I/O Mode Screen, Power On / Off Toggle Mode Selected
3. On the Digital I/O Mode screen, select Power On / Off Toggle (2).
When this mode is selected, Digital I/O ports 1 and 2 (3) are configured in Power
On/Off (Toggle) mode. (Power On/Off (Toggle) mode is available for only ports 1 and
2, however, ports 3 and 4 can be configured in other modes with different devices
attached).
33
4. Click the Actions button (4) to display the Available Actions and Selected
Actions panels.
5. In the Available Actions panel, select the CEC tab (see figure31, 1).
Figure 31. Configuring Digital I/O Port 1 in Power On/Off (Toggle) Mode
HD CTL 100 Controller • Application Example
33
6. Click the + sign (2) to expand the list of CEC commands, and drag the Power On
(CEC) action to the Toggle On (top) panel to the right (3). This causes the controller
to send a command to the display to power on when the CCR 2BLB button is first
pressed.
When the CCR 2BLB button is pressed to power the display on, the button blinks
rapidly for approximately 10 seconds, then remains lit steadily.
NOTE: The number of seconds of warm-up and cool-down can be configured
7. Drag the Power Off (CEC) action from the Available Actions panel to the
Toggle Off (bottom) panel (4). This causes the controller to send a command to
the display to power off when the same CCR 2BLB button is pressed again.
(Alternatively, you can select each desired action in the Available Actions panel,
then click the green arrow between the panels to move the action to the Selected
Actions panel.)
When the CCR 2BLB button is pressed to again to power off the display, the button
blinks slowly for approximately 10 seconds, then remains dimly lit.
Occupancy Sensor
In this application, another means of powering on the display is by wiring a room
occupancy sensor, such as the Extron OCS 100, to the HD CTL 100 Digital I/O port
4, which is configured as an input. The sensor is mounted to the ceiling (figure26 on
page29). For the application, the HD CTL 100 is configured to power on the display
when the occupancy sensor detects that the room is occupied, and to power it off after a
specified period of no room occupancy.
via the Advanced screen of the HD CTL 100 Configuration software (see the
HD CTL 100 Configuration Software Help file for more information).
Digital I/O port states
The occupancy sensor is connected to Digital I/O port 4, which must be configured in
34
order for the sensor to trigger the desired power on and off actions. The Digital I/O port
can be in either of two states: open — (high) and closed (low). Each port consists of two
pins, signal and ground (one ground pin is shared between ports 1 and 2, while the other
is shared between ports 3 and 4).
Between the signal and ground pins, a circuit is either formed or broken when the
occupancy sensor is activated.
• The sensor provides approximately 21 VDC in the On (high or open) state and 0
VDC in the Off (low or closed) state. When wiring the blue or gray wires of the OCS
to Extron products with digital input ports, configure the ports as input with pullup
disabled, because the sensor has its own power supply.
• When the sensor detects motion, it instantly triggers an On state. Once occupancy is
no longer detected, the timer begins. If no motion is detected and the time expires,
then the sensor triggers the Off state.

34
Digital I/O port configuration procedure
To configure actions to be triggered by the two states of the occupancy sensor:
1. Select the Digital I/O's tab (see figure32, 1).
Figure 32. Configuring Digital I/O Port 4 as an Input for the Occupancy
Sensor
2. On the Digital I/O Configuration screen, click the Mode button (2).
3. From the second mode menu, located above the Digital I/O Port 3 panel (3),
select Digital Input / Output.
4. From the port 4 Type menu (4), select Input to configure port 4 as an input.
35
5. Click the Actions button to display the Available Actions and Selected
Actions panels.
6. In the left column of the Actions screen, select the Digital I/O 4 - Closed side
tab (see figure33, 1).

7. In the Available Actions panel, select the CEC tab (2) and click the + sign to
expand the list of HDMI CEC actions.
8. Drag the Power Off (CEC) action to the Selected Actions panel on the right (3).
This causes the HD CTL 100 to send a display power off command when the timer
on the occupancy sensor no longer detects that anyone is in the room.
9. To configure the Open state of Digital I-O 4, select the Digital I/O 4 - Open side
tab (see figure34, 1).

Digital I/O Port 4
10. In the Available Actions panel, select the CEC tab (2).
11. Drag the Power On (CEC) action to the Selected Actions panel on the right (3).
This causes the HD CTL 100 to send a display power on command when the timer
on the occupancy sensor detects that the room is occupied.
36
NOTE: See the OCS 100 Setup Guide, available at www.extron.com, for setup
detail for this sensor.
12. Drag the Digital Output - Open command to the Selected Actions panel (4).
This causes the LED of the CCR push-button switch to light steadily and keeps the
LED status in sync with the display power status.
Applying the Configuration
After completing configuring the screens for all the desired power on and off actions,
do the following to enable the configuration on the HD CTL 100 (see the HD CTL 100
Configuration Program Help File for the procedures):
