WARNING: Remove power from the system before making any

connections.

CAUTION: Use electrostatic discharge precautions (be

electrically grounded) when making connections. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment, although you may not feel, see, or hear it.

AC power connector — Plug a standard IEC power cord into this

connector to connect the switcher to a 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz power source.

6 DXP DVI Pro and DXP HDMI Series • Setup

Input connectors —

• DVI Pro series: Connect DVI-D source devices to these female

29-pin DVI-I input connectors. Only single-link DVI-D signals are supported.

• HDMI series: Connect HDMI source devices to these female

19-pin type A HDMI input connectors.

LockIt™ cable lacing brackets, one for each HDMI input and output connector, are provided with the DXP HDMI. These brackets can be used to secure the HDMI cables to the DXP connectors to reduce stress on the HDMI connectors and prevent signal loss due to loose cable connections.

To securely fasten an HDMI cable to the DXP using LockIt brackets:

1. Plug the HDMI cable into the panel connection.

Figure 5. Installing the LockIt Lacing Bracket

2. Loosen the HDMI connection mounting screw from the

panel enough to allow the LockIt lacing bracket to be placed over it. The screw does not have to be removed.

3. Place the LockIt lacing bracket on the screw and against

the HDMI connector, then tighten the screw to secure the bracket.

CAUTION: Do not overtighten the HDMI connector

mounting screw. The shield to which it fastens is very thin and can easily be stripped.

4. Loosely place the included tie wrap around the HDMI

connector and the LockIt lacing bracket as shown.

5. While holding the connector securely against the lacing

bracket, use pliers or similar tools to tighten the tie wrap, then remove any excess length.

7DXP DVI Pro and DXP HDMI Series • Setup

Output connectors —

NOTE: The switchers do not alter the video signal in any way.

The signal that is output by the switcher is in the same format as the input signal.

• DVI Pro series: Connect DVI output devices to these female

29-pin DVI-I output connectors.

• HDMI series: Connect HDMI output devices to these female

19-pin type A HDMI output connectors.

Ethernet port — If desired, connect the DXP switcher to a

computer, a network WAN or LAN hub, or a control system via this RJ-45 connector. With the Ethernet connection, you can use a computer to control the networked switcher with SIS commands, the Matrix Switchers Control Program, or the embedded HTML pages on the switcher.

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

• Link: Indicates that the switcher is properly connected to an

Ethernet LAN. This green LED should light steadily.

• Act (Activity): Indicates transmission of data on the RJ-45

connector. This yellow LED should ﬂicker as the switcher communicates.

Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 3, 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).

NOTES: • Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone

cables do not support Ethernet or Fast Ethernet.

• Do not stretch or bend the cables because this can cause transmission errors.

Remote Control

This section describes selected SIS commands that pertain to system setup. It also contains instructions for obtaining, installing, and starting the Matrix Switchers Control Program and for accessing the DXP HTML pages. The following topics are discussed:

• Establishing a Network (Ethernet) Connection

• SIS Commands

• Installing and Starting the Matrix Switchers Control Program

• Accessing the HTML Pages

Establishing a Network (Ethernet) Connection

You can send SIS commands over an Ethernet link (rear panel RJ-45 LAN port) or a serial connection (front panel Conﬁg port or rear panel Remote RS232/RS422 port). The network connection procedure is described below; for information about the serial connection, see the DXP DVI Pro and DXP HDMI Series User Guide.

Establish a network connection as follows:

1. Open a TCP socket to port 23 using the switcher IP address.

NOTE: The factory default IP address is 192.168.254.254.

The switcher responds with a message consisting of the copyright date, the name of the product, ﬁrmware version, part number, and the current date and time.

Example (with an Internet connection):

Ddd, DD Mmm YYYY HH:MM:SS

NOTES: • If the switcher is not password-protected, the device is now

ready to accept SIS commands.

• If the switcher is password-protected, a password prompt

appears.

2. If the switcher is password-protected, enter the appropriate

password.

3. If the password is accepted, the switcher responds with Login

User or Login Administrator.

4. If the password is not accepted, the Password prompt reappears.

Connection Timeouts

The Ethernet link times out and disconnects after a designated period of no communications. By default, this timeout value is set to 5 minutes but the value can be changed.

NOTE: Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at

Number of Connections

A switcher can have up to 200 simultaneous TCP connections, including all HTTP sockets and Telnet connections. When the connection limit is reached, the switcher accepts no new connections until some have been closed. No error message or indication is given that the connection limit has been reached. To maximize performance of your switcher, keep the number of connections low and close unnecessary open sockets.

Verbose Mode

Telnet connections to a switcher can be used to monitor for changes that occur on the switcher, such as front panel operations and SIS commands from other Telnet sockets or a serial port. For a Telnet session to receive change notices from the switcher, the Telnet session must be in verbose mode 1 or 3 (see the Set verbose mode command in the Command and Response Table for SIS Commands).

SIS Commands

The switchers have SIS commands that you can use for operation and conﬁguration. You can issue these commands from a PC connected to either of the DXP serial ports or the Ethernet port (see "Rear Panels

and Connections" in the "Setup" section for connection information).

5 minutes and periodically issuing the Query (Q) command to keep the connection active or disconnecting the socket and reopening the connection when necessary.

Host-to-switcher Instructions

The switcher accepts SIS commands through the LAN port or through either serial port. SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command ﬁeld. They do not require any special characters to begin or end the command character sequence. Each switcher response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = ]), which signals the end of the response character string. A string is one or more characters.

EDID (Extended Display Identiﬁcation Data)

EDID is a communications protocol or instruction set for the identiﬁcation of display devices to computers using the DDC (Display Data Channel) transmission standard. EDID information consists of the resolution, refresh rate, and pixel clock information of a display device.

You can apply an EDID to a selected input by selecting one of the following categories of EDID ﬁles, shown in the EDID table on the

next page.

• The EDID of the display connected to an output (numbers 1

through the number of outputs on your DXP)

• One of 28 factory-loaded EDID ﬁles (numbers 9 through 36)

• One of the four user-deﬁned ﬁles, to which you have assigned

your own EDID values (numbers 37 through 40)

NOTES: • Multi-channel audio consists of:

PCM 2-channel audio (stereo) DTS 8-channel audio

AC-3 6-channel audio E-AC-3 8-channel audio

PCM 8-channel audio DTS-HD 8-channel audio
