About this Guide

This guide describes the SW2 DP switcher and discusses how to install, configure, and operate it. The terms “switcher” and “SW2 DP” are used interchangeably to refer to the SW2 DP switcher.

About the SW2 DP

The Extron SW2 DP is a two input, one output, DisplayPort switcher that switches DisplayPort video and embedded multi-channel digital audio signals. The SW2 DP is HDCP compliant and supports data rates up to 10.8 Gbps and computer resolutions up to 2560x1600 W 60 Hz.

The SW2 DP switcher can be controlled via the front panel or the RS-232 interface. You can

select inputs by pressing the front panel buttons, enabling auto-input switching, or entering Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) commands via RS-232.

Features

• HDCP — The SW2 DP checks the sources and display for HDCP compliance. HDCP LEDs

for the inputs and output indicate whether HDCP authentication was successful.

• Thunderbolt™ source support — Thunderbolt sources are backwards-compatible

with the SW2 DP inputs for DisplayPort audio and video (Thunderbolt devices are not supported on the SW2 DP output).

• Auto-input switching — The SW2 DP can be configured to automatically switch to

the active input when the switcher detects a signal. If both input signals are present, the switcher switches to input 1.

• Signal detection LEDs — Both inputs and the output are represented by LEDs on the

front panel. Each LED lights if a signal is present for its input or output.

• Input cable equalization — Automatic input cable equalization compensates for

signal loss up to 25 feet (7.6 m).

• RS-232 control — The switcher can be controlled via SIS commands issued through an

RS-232 computer interface.

SW2 DP • Introduction 1

• Front panel security lockout (executive mode) — To prevent unauthorized access

TouchLink

to the switchers, front panel lock mode can be enabled via the front panel or SIS

commands. When the switcher is in lock mode, all front panel controls are disabled

(RS-232 control remains available).

• EDID Minder® — EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) consists of the resolution,

refresh rate, and pixel clock information of a display device. The EDID Minder manages this information between the digital output device and the inputs. By maintaining continuous EDID communication with the sources, the EDID Minder ensures that all

DisplayPort sources power up properly and maintain their video outputs, whether or not an active signal is displayed.

A rear panel DIP switch enables you to either keep the default EDID of 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz with 2-channel audio or store the EDID of the connected display at the output so

that connection with the display is made quickly and smoothly at each power-up.

• Power supply — An external 12 VDC power supply with a 2-pole captive screw

connector accepts 100 to 240 VAC.

• Rack and furniture mounting — The SW2 DP can be mounted on a rack shelf or

under a desk or podium with an optional mounting kit.

Wiring the Power Connector (Optional)

A 12 VDC, 1 A desktop power supply with a 2-pole captive screw connector attached is provided with the SW2 DP. Should it become necessary to attach a 2-pole captive screw connector to your Extron power supply, follow these instructions:

WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Keep the two power cord wires separate while

the power supply is plugged in. Remove power before wiring.

ATTENTION: • Power supply voltage polarity is critical. Incorrect voltage polarity can

damage the equipment. Identify the negative (or ground) lead by the ridges on the side of the cord.

• Always use a power supply supplied by or specied by Extron. Use

of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certiﬁcation and may cause damage to the supply and the end product.

• Unless otherwise stated, the AC to DC adapters are not suitable for

use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities. The power supply is

to be located within the same vicinity as the Extron AV processing

equipment in an ordinary location, Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet, podium or desk.

• The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable

provisions of National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 75 and the Canadian Electrical Code part 1, section 16. The power supply must

not be permanently ﬁxed to a building or similar structure.

SW2 DP • Installation 9

To wire the power connector:

1. Cut the DC output cord to the length needed.

2. Strip the jacket to expose 3/16 inch (5 mm) of the conductors.

ATTENTION: • Exposing more than 3/16 inch (5 mm) of the copper wires could

allow the stripped wires to touch each other, causing a short circuit. This could result in the external DC power supply overheating and burning.

• Stripping the wires to expose less than the recommended amount

may cause them to slide out of the connector too easily, even if they are tightly pinched by the captive screws.

3. Slide the leads into the supplied 2-pole captive screw plug and secure them, using a

small screwdriver.

ATTENTION: Do not tin the stripped power supply leads before attaching the

captive screw plug to them. Tinned wires are not as secure in the captive screw connectors and can be easily pulled out. They may also break after being bent several times.

4. To verify the polarity of the power cord before connecting it, plug in the power supply

with no load and check the output with a voltmeter.

a Auto Switch Active LED — This green LED lights when auto-input switching is in

effect (see “Enabling Auto-input Switching” on page 8 for the procedure to set up auto-input switching).

b Input selection buttons and LEDs — Press these buttons to select input 1 or 2.

The LED at the right of each button lights when the SW2 DP has power and the

corresponding input is selected.

• The input buttons are disabled if auto-input switching is in effect; however, the LEDs

continue to light to indicate the selected input.

• The SW2 DP retains the previously selected input during a power cycle and the LED

for that input continues to light.

The input buttons are also used for enabling front panel lockout (executive mode) and to initiate a system reset (see “Enabling Front Panel Lockout (Executive Mode)” and “Resetting,” both on page 13).

c Signal status LEDs —

• Inputs: Each input has a corresponding numbered Signal LED, which illuminates

when a source is connected to the input connector and Main Link activity is detected from it.

NOTE: If the source device connected to the selected input is HDCP

encrypted (requires HDCP authentication), the corresponding signal LED may not light unless HDCP has been authenticated.

• Output: The Output Signal LED lights when the Main Link signal is being

transmitted to a connected output device.

d HDCP status LEDs —

• Inputs: Each input has a numbered HDCP LED. If the connected source is HDCP

encrypted, the corresponding input LED lights.

• Output: The Output HDCP LED lights if the connected output device has been

authenticated.

NOTES: • HDCP is re-authenticated on the output whenever a new input is

selected.

• The LEDs do not light if the source does not require HDCP

encryption or if the display device connected to the output is not

HDCP compliant.

e Config port — Connect a USB cable (USB A to mini B) between your computer and

this female USB mini B port to configure and control the switcher via SIS commands and

to update the firmware.

Powering On the Switcher

Follow these steps to power on the SW2 DP:

1. Connect all input devices and the output to the switcher rear panel connectors (see

“Rear Panel Features” on page 4 for information on the rear panel connections).

2. Power on the output device.

3. Plug the power supply into the 2-pole captive screw power connector on the rear panel.

• The unit performs a self-test, during which the front panel Auto Switch and Input

LEDs each blink once in sequence from left to right. When the self-test completes, the LED for the most recently selected input remains lit.

• Depending on the DIP switch setting, the switcher either reads the stored EDID

information or applies the default EDID.

4. Power on the input devices.

Selecting an Input

To switch an input to the output, press the desired input button on the front panel (ensure

that auto-input switching is not enabled). The LED corresponding to the selected input

button lights.

• To determine the current configuration, check the front panel input LEDs. The one that

is lit indicates the selected input. The LED remains lit until a new input is selected.

• Only one input can be switched to the output at a time.

You can also select an input using SIS commands (see the Input Selection command in the

Command and Response Table for SIS Commands on page 17. Front panel input selection is disabled when auto-input switching is in effect.

SW2 DP • Operation 12 12

Enabling Front Panel Lockout (Executive Mode)

Front panel lock mode (executive mode) disables all front panel controls. Putting the switcher in this mode enhances security by protecting against inappropriate or accidental changes

to settings. When the switcher is in lock mode, RS-232 and auto-input switching remain

available.

To lock or unlock the front panel, press and hold Input buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously for

3 seconds, then release them. The front panel LEDs blink three times, indicating that front

panel lock mode has been enabled or disabled (see the illustration below).

Release buttons.

Press and hold simultaneously for 3 seconds.

LEDs blink 3 times.

Figure 10. Enabling or Disabling Front Panel Lock Mode

You can also lock the front panel by using SIS commands (see the Front Panel Lockout

(Executive Mode) commands on page 17).

Resetting

The following types of reset are available for the SW2 DP:

Factory settings

To reset the switcher to its original factory settings:

1. Disconnect power from the unit if it is connected.

2. Press and hold the Input 1 button while connecting power to the unit.

3. Continue holding the Input 1 button until the power-up sequence completes.

Retain current firmware

To reset the switcher to its default settings while retaining the currently installed firmware version:

1. Press and hold the Input 1 button. The unit performs the power-up self-test, in which all

front panel LEDs blink once in succession.

2. When the self-test completes (after approximately 6 seconds all LEDs go dark except the

one for the most recently selected input), release the button.

You can also perform this reset by using an SIS command (see the Reset command on page 18).

EDID Minder

The SW2 DP switchers utilize the EDID Minder, which maintains EDID communication to all connected source devices, whether or not the source is selected. EDID information

consists of the display resolution, refresh rate, data rate, supported audio formats, and other

features. By factory default, the stored EDID contains information for a native resolution of 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz with 2-channel audio.

During power up, the source devices use an auxiliary channel to obtain Extended Display Identication Data (EDID) from the display device. This allows the output signal to match the

resolution and refresh rate of the display device.

SW2 DP • Operation 13 13

NOTES: • The SW2 DP is fully HDCP compliant. The source negotiates with the SW2 DP

input and the display negotiates with the SW2 DP output.

• The SW2 DP does not support DisplayPort Content Protection (DPCP).

• The SW2 DP assigns identical EDIDs to the inputs.

EDID information is read from the display device connected to the output. The learned EDID is stored in memory and is retained after a power cycle or after a new display device is connected to the output. A reset to factory values returns the EDID to the default.

The new EDID is then available when DIP switch 1 is in the Stored (down) position. Each time a new EDID is recorded, it overwrites the existing data and is available when DIP switch 1 in

the Stored position.

Storing the display EDID

1. Connect the display device that will provide EDID information to the output.

2. Power on the display and the SW2 DP.

3. Set DIP switch 1 in the Stored (down) position (see “EDID Minder DIP Switch

settings” for more information about setting the DIP switches).

4. Using a stylus or small Philips screwdriver, press the recessed EDID Store button.

The EDID Minder LED lights amber, then changes to green when the recording process is

successfully completed.

Changing the stored EDID

To replace the stored EDID with that of a different display, connect the new display to the

output, then repeat steps 2 through 4 of the “Storing the display EDID” procedure described above.

EDID Minder DIP switch settings

The EDID Minder DIP switch (DIP switch 1, on the left) selects the EDID value that is presented to

the source device:

• In the Default (up) position, the EDID value is the factory-stored default, with a

resolution of 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz with 2-channel audio.

• In the Stored (down) position, the most recently recorded EDID value is used (this file

overwrites previously stored values). Before any other EDID file is recorded, this is also the factory default resolution of 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz with 2-channel audio.

When the DIP switch is in this position, press the EDID button to initiate EDID storing.

NOTE: DIP switch 2, on the right, is not used.

The table below summarizes the EDID Minder settings and functions.

Remote Configuration and Control

This section describes remote operation of the SW2 DP. Topics include:

• Using Simple Instruction Set (SIS) Commands

• Updating Firmware Using Firmware Loader

Using Simple Instruction Set (SIS) Commands

The SW2 DP can be remotely set up and controlled via a host computer or other device (such as a control system) that is attached to the rear panel Remote port. Extron Simple

Instruction Set (SIS) commands are issued from the computer and transmitted to the SW2 DP via RS-232 (see “Wiring for RS-232 Control” on page 5 or “Connecting to the

USB Port” on page 6 to connect to these ports).

Host-to-switcher Communications

SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are required

to begin or end a command sequence. Enter these commands on your computer and send them to the SW2 DP using a communication software program such as Extron DataViewer. When the switcher determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and sends

a response back to the host computer.

Most responses from the SW2 DP to the host computer end 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.

Switcher-initiated Messages

When a local event such as an input selection takes place, the switcher responds by sending

a message to the host, indicating what selection was entered. No response is required from the host.

The following switcher-initiated message is sent when the switcher first powers up under RS-232 control:

where 20nn is the year, Vn.nn is the firmware version number, and 60-nnnn-nn is the part number of the unit.

NOTE: This copyright message is displayed only at switcher power-up and only under

RS-232 control.

SW2 DP • Remote Configuration and Control 1515

Error Responses

Space

If the switcher is unable to execute a command it receives because the command is invalid

or contains invalid parameters, the switcher returns an error response to the host. Error response codes used by the SW2 DP are:

E01 – Invalid input channel number (out of range)

E06 – Invalid input selection during auto-input switching

E10 – Invalid command

E13 – Invalid value (out of range)

Using the Command and Response Table

The Command and Response Table for SIS Commands, starting on the next page, lists valid ASCII and hexadecimal command codes, the switcher responses to the host, and a description of the command function or the results of executing the command. The ASCII to Hex Conversion Table below is for use with the command and response table.

Rack Mounting

UL rack mounting guidelines

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the safe installation of the

equipment in a rack.

1. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the equipment is installed in a closed

or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma = +122 °F,

+50 °C) specified by Extron.

2. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that the amount of air flow

required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

3. Mechanical loading — When mounting the equipment in the rack, ensure that uneven

mechanical loading does not cause a hazardous condition.

4. Circuit overloading — When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider

the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.

5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted

equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of power strips).
