About this Manual

This manual contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the Extron
ISS608 Integration Seamless Switcher.

About the Integration Seamless Switcher

The Extron ISS608 is an eight-input, scaling, video and audio seamless switcher for the
dynamic presentation of HDMI and DisplayPort content at resolutions up to 4K/60Hz.
With six HDMI 2.0 and two DisplayPort 1.2 inputs that support signals up to 4096x2160 at
60Hz with 4:4:4 color sampling, the ISS combines true seamless switching with advanced
Vector™ 4K scaling technology.

NOTE: The terms ISS, ISS608, scaler, and switcher refer to the ISS608.

The ISS provides multiple seamless transition effects, an independent preview output, and
intuitive front panel operation. Logo insertion, video keying, and Picture In Picture (PIP)
capabilities complement primary content, and audio de-embedding simplifies integration.

Matrix Mode (see page33) adds automatic, seamless transitions to matrix switchers

with HDMI outputs. In addition, RS-232 and Ethernet provide optimal control options.

These features and capabilities enable the ISS608 to deliver a true seamless digital signal
switching solution perfect for high-end, live presentation environments.

Figure1 on page2 shows a typical ISS608 application. The switcher accepts up to

eight video inputs of various resolutions, scales the video inputs, and outputs video and
audio.

The ISS 608 seamlessly switches between the program and preview inputs without a loss
of video or sync. The ISS offers a wide range of effects that eliminate distracting jumps,
glitches, and delays, as well as allows the user to choose transitions most appropriate for
the material. Effects include wipes with selectable direction and duration, a dissolve with
selectable duration, and a seamless cut. The audio transition can also be accompanied by
either a cut or a fade audio effect.

Each video input is individually configurable to support different video formats. The ISS
allows the various high-resolution and low-resolution video formats to be seamlessly
switched between for display in high profile, professional presentation spaces.

The ISS provides two separate outputs:

• Program output — The program output is the video seen by the audience.

• Preview output — The preview output allows the switcher operator to view the video

before it is transitioned to the program output for the audience to see.

• The Program connector (2A) outputs the video image for the program display or

projector.

• The Preview connector (1A) outputs the video image for the local display.

Audio output connections

Analog audio outputs — Connect audio devices, such as an audio amplifier or

E

powered speakers, to these 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors. The connectors
output the selected unamplified, line level audio de-embedded from the HDMI and
DisplayPort inputs (see figure3 to properly wire an output connector). Use the supplied
tie-wrap to strap the audio cable to the extended tail of the connector.

Figure 3. Captive Screw Connector Wiring for Audio Output

Reset Button

ATTENTION:

• Connect the sleeve to the ground (Gnd) terminal. Connecting the sleeve to a

negative (-) terminal will damage the audio output circuits.

• Connectez le manchon à la borne de terre (Gnd). Connecter le manchon à une

borne négative (-) endommagera les circuits de la sortie audio.

• The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is important. The ideal

length is 3/16 inches (5 mm). Any longer and the exposed wires may touch,
causing a short circuit between them. Any shorter and the wires can be easily
pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.

• La longueur des câbles exposés est importante lorsque l’on entreprend de

les dénuder. La longueur idéale est de 5 mm (3/16 inches). S’ils sont trop
longs, les câbles exposés pourraient se toucher et provoquer un court­circuit. S’ils sont trop courts, ils peuvent être tirés facilement, même s’ils sont
correctement serrés par les borniers à vis.

By default, the de-embedded analog audio output follows the video switch, but it can
be split via SIS commands (see Audio follow on page49). Audio output can also be
muted via SIS commands (see Audio mute (digital and analog - persists beyond a

power cycle) on page49)

Reset button and LED — Initiates four levels of reset to the switcher. Use an Extron

F

Tweeker or small screwdriver to press and hold the button while the switcher is running
or while you power up the switcher for different reset levels.

See the ISS608 Reset Modes table on page8 and figure4 on page9 for a
summary of the function of the reset modes and how to perform them.

Control Connections

Ethernet connection

LAN connector (see figure2 on page6) — Connect the seamless switcher to an

G

Ethernet LAN or WAN via this RJ-45 connector. Ethernet control allows the operator to
control the seamless switcher from a remote location. When connected to an Ethernet
LAN or WAN, the seamless switcher can be accessed and operated from a computer
running a standard Internet browser.

Ethernet connection indicators — The Link and Activity LEDs indicate the status of
the Ethernet connection.

• Link LED — Indicates the seamless switcher is properly connected to an Ethernet

LAN. This LED should light steadily.

• Activity LED — Indicates transmission of data packets on the RJ-45 connector.

This LED should flicker as the seamless switcher communicates.

Choosing a network cable

Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 3, 4, 5, 5e, or 6, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded
twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are limited to
328 feet (100 m).

ATTENTION:

• Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone cables do not support Ethernet

or Fast Ethernet. Do not stretch or bend cables. This can cause transmission
errors.

• Ne pas utiliser de câbles téléphone standard. Les câbles de téléphone ne sont pas

compatibles avec les liaisons Ethernet ou Fast Ethernet. Ne pas étirer ou plier les
câbles. Cela pourrait provoquer des erreurs de transmission.

The cable used depends on network speed. The ISS supports 10 Mbps (10Base-T) and
100 Mbps (100Base-T), half-duplex and full-duplex Ethernet connections.

• 10Base-T Ethernet requires at a minimum CAT 3 UTP or STP cable.

• 100Base-T Fast Ethernet requires at a minimum CAT 5 UTP or STP cable.

A cable wired the same at both ends is called
a "straight-through" cable because no pin/pair
assignments are swapped.

The cable can be terminated as either a patch cable or a crossover cable (see figure5) and
must be properly terminated for the application:

• Patch (straight-through) cable — Connection of the ISS to an Ethernet hub, router,

or switch that also hosts a controlling computer.

• Crossover cable — Direct connection between the ISS and a controlling computer.
