Definitions
The following terms are used throughout this manual: EDID — Extended Display Identification Data. A communications protocol or
instruction set developed by VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) for the identification of display devices to computers using the DDC (Display Data Channel) transmission standard.
DVI — Digital Visual Interface. The digital video connectivity standard that was
developed by DDWG (Digital Display Working Group). This connection standard offers two different connectors: one with 24 pins that handles digital video signals only, and one with 29 pins that handles both digital and analog video. This standard uses TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signal) from Silicon Image and DDC (Display Data Channel) from VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association). DVI-D is a DVI connector that supports digital signals only, and DVI-I supports both digital and analog signals.
SDI — Serial Digital Interface. The standard based on a 270 Mbps transfer rate.
This is a 10-bit, scrambled, polarity independent interface with common scrambling for both component ITU-R 601 and composite digital video and four channels of embedded digital audio.
HD-SDI — High-definition version of SDI specified in SMPTE 292M. This
standard transmits audio and video over a single coaxial cable with a data rate of 1.485 Gbit/second.
Preset A configuration that has been stored, allowing the setup and recall of
recurring I/O configurations using either the front panel, RS-232/422, or Ethernet control. Input: Up to 128 input presets (individual I/O configurations) may be saved and recalled. An input preset is a user-defined set of input and picture control settings that can be saved for each source within a system so that they can be recalled whenever the source is active. Input presets can be recalled on any input that supports the saved input’s video format. This type of preset saves specific settings for size, centering, contrast, brightness, detail, zoom, and input configuration. Unlike user presets, input presets save parameters that can be recalled only on the source that was active when the preset was saved. User: Up to 16 user presets per input are available. A user preset saves specific settings for color, brightness, detail, size, and centering. User presets are used when a shortcut is needed to quickly recall a group of settings that relate to the current content or current input. Each input has it’s own set of 16 user presets. PIP: Up to 16 user defined PIP window layout presets can be stored, available for later use. Ten factory default PIP window layout presets come as standard and can be overwritten.
Auto Memory The automatic saving and recall of input and picture controls for
signals that have been previously applied.

Outputs: Simultaneous scaled outputs as RGB or HD component video on BNCs,
15-pin HD, and Extron MTP twisted pair output; optional fourth output for DVI-D, HD-SDI, or scan-converted component video, S-video, or composite video.
Hardware-based graphics and video processing — The USP 507 features a fully
hardware-based system architecture designed to deliver the performance and operational reliability essential for mission-critical applications.
Integrated seven-input presentation switcher — The USP 507 allows for switching
between DVI, RGBHV, component video, and S-video or composite video sources. An input for SDI/HD-SDI is available as an option.
Auto input format detection — Each input can be set to detect the incoming signal
format, automatically reconfiguring itself to provide the appropriate decoding and signal processing. This feature can reduce the number of required outputs for a device, lowering system cost while improving manageability.
RGB, HDTV, and video scaling — RGB computer-video, high definition video, and
standard definition video sources can be scaled to the desired output resolution.
RGB upscaling and downscaling — The USP 507 features an advanced scaling
engine with high quality upscaling and downscaling of high resolution computer-video signals.
Optional SDI/HD-SDI input — SDI or HD-SDI signals from cameras or other
professional video equipment can easily be integrated into presentations with the optional SDI/HD-SDI input board.
Four simultaneous video outputs — Two high resolution RGB or component video
outputs are available, as well as Extron MTP twisted pair and an optional output that can be configured as DVI, HD-SDI, or scan-converted video.
Extron MTP twisted pair output — This provides built-in transmission of RGB or
component video signals over twisted pair cables for long distance transmission to a remote display. A compatible Extron MTP Series twisted pair receiver is required.
Optional DVI, HD-SDI, or scan-converted output — A flexible output expansion
port which can be populated to support optional DVI, HD-SDI, or scan converter output boards. These boards offer additional system capabilities, such as recording or digital signal transmission.

Auto Input Memory — When activated, the USP 507 automatically stores size,
position, and picture settings based on the incoming signal. When the same signal is detected again, these image settings are automatically recalled from memory.
EDID emulation — The USP 507 provides a means for specifying the rate of the
incoming DVI or VGA signal through the RS-232 serial port. EDID emulation allows proper communication with the video source.
Glitch-free switching — Switching is glitch-free between RGB and video inputs
with selectable cut (freeze), cut (blank), or fade to black transitions. Presentations can be enhanced by eliminating distracting visual jumps, glitches, and distortion commonly seen when switching between computer and video sources.
PIP (picture-in-picture) — Allows a video source to be displayed within an RGB
image, or vice versa, with dynamic, fully adjustable window positioning for the PIP window. PIP mode is available through RS-232 serial control, or IP Link Ethernet control, and PIP presets can be recalled or saved via the front panel.
Picture controls — Adjustable for brightness, contrast, color, tint, detail, and
horizontal and vertical positioning, sizing, and zoom. Sixteen memory presets are available for each input to store all image settings.
Aspect ratio conversion — Any video input can be adjusted horizontally and
vertically to meet a specific aspect ratio requirement. Alternatively, the input aspect ratio may be specified as 4:3 or 16:9 and fixed.

Bracket

Mounting the USP 507

If the USP 507 is to be rack mounted, it is important to mount it before cabling it. Four rubber feet are included with the unit. Install the feet only if the unit is to be mounted on a tabletop (see “Tabletop placement” below).

Tabletop placement

For tabletop placement, install the self-adhesive rubber feet/pads (provided) onto the four corners of the bottom of the device.

UL guidelines for rack mounted devices

The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the safe installation of the USP 507 in a rack.
1
. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If 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 device in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma = +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron.
. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that the amount of air
2
flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
. Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that a hazardous
3
condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and
4
consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-
5
mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as use of power strips).

Rack mounting

To rack mount the USP 507, insert screws under each opposite corner of the unit and secure it to the rack (see figure 2-1).

Auto Memory and Auto-Image Features
“New” signals /rates that have not been previously detected by the USP 507 are initially set-up using default parameters, then auto image is automatically applied and values stored. The next time the same signal is detected, the values stored in the auto memory location are applied.
OFF
“New” signals /rates that have not been previously detected by the USP 507 are set-up using default parameters. If manual input and/or picture settings are made to the input, an auto memory location is created and recalled each successive time the input is detected.
Each change in input sync triggers an automatic auto image. When auto memory is disabled, each different signal is treated as a new signal and default picture controls and automatic auto image is applied. Any manual changes made to the image and picture controls are lost each time a new rate is detected.
Each change in input sync causes default values to be applied to the rate. Any manual changes made to the image and picture controls are lost each time a new rate is applied.

Setting Up the USP 507 to Work with a Matrix Switcher

The Sync to Matrix tool is a powerful software tool that can simplify the control system necessary when using an Extron matrix switcher and an USP 507.
The “Sync to Matrix” script can sense when a new tie that is made on the matrix is routed to the USP 507 and automatically recalls the input preset associated with the input on the matrix switcher. The input preset recalls all the settings for the input including the signal format, input sampling settings, and picture controls.

SIS Programmer’s Guide
The USP 507 can be operated and configured using Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™) commands input via a PC connected to the top RS-232 port on the rear panel or the Ethernet port. See m on page 2-4, and Appendix B for wiring details.

RS-232/RS-422 Link

The USP 507 has one rear port (the upper serial port) and one front port (see a on
page 3-2) that can be used for serial control. All ports enable use of SIS commands
and the Windows®-based control software. The default protocol for these ports is:
• 9600 baud, • 1 stop bit, • no parity, • no flow control, • 8-bit.
N
The lower rear serial port (named Aux SW Follow) is for connection to an
auxiliary device and should not be connected to a PC or control device.

Ethernet (LAN) Port

The rear panel Ethernet connector on the unit can be connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN. Communications between the unit and the controlling device is via Telnet (a TCP socket using port 23). The TCP port can be changed if necessary. This connection makes SIS control of the unit possible using a computer connected to the same LAN or WAN. The SIS commands and behavior of the unit are identical to that when communicating to it via RS-232.

Ethernet connection

The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover cable and must be properly terminated for your application. See Appendix B for cable termination details.

Default IP addresses

To access the USP 507 via the Ethernet port, you need the Extron IP address and may need the subnet mask and the gateway address. If the IP address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, the actual numeric IP address can be determined using the ping (ICMP) utility (see Appendix B for more details). If the addresses have not been changed, the factory-specified defaults are:
IP address: 192.168.254.254, subnet mask: 255.255.0.0, gateway address: 0.0.0.0.

Establishing a connection

Establish a network connection to the processor as follows:

If the password is accepted, the processor responds with Login User or
If the password is not accepted, the Password prompt reappears.
If the local system administrators have not changed the value, the
factory-specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.
name of the product, firmware version, part number, and the current date/time.

commands immediately after it sends the copyright message.
If the processor is password-protected, a password prompt appears below the copyright message.

Connection timeouts

The Ethernet link times out after a designated period of time of no communications. By default, this timeout value is set to five minutes but the value can be changed.
N
Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at five minutes and periodically
issuing the Query (Q) command to keep the connection active. If there are long idle periods, Extron recommends disconnecting the socket and reopening the connection when another command must be sent.

Number of connections

The USP 507 can have up to 200 simultaneous TCP connections, including all HTTP sockets and Telnet connections. When the connection limit is reached, the processor 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 an IP Link unnecessary open sockets should be closed.
®
device, the number of connections should stay low and

Using verbose mode

Telnet connections to the processor can be used to monitor for changes that occur on the processor, 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 processor, the Telnet session must be in verbose mode 1 or 3. In verbose mode 1 or 3, the Telnet socket reports changes in messages that resemble SIS command responses.

Host-to-Processor Instructions

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 processor response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = is one or more characters.
), which signals the end of the response character string. A string
]

Processor-Initiated Messages

When a local event such as a front panel operation occurs, the processor responds by sending a message to the host. The processor-initiated messages are listed below.
With an RS-232/422 connection (upon power up):
(c) Copyright 2009, Extron Electronics USP 507, V1.00, 60-1055-01
With an Ethernet connection:
(c) Copyright 2009, Extron Electronics USP 507, V1.00, 60-1055-01 Ddd, DD MMM YYYY HH:MM:SS (day, date, time. e.g. Tue, 14 Apr 2009 14:43:17)
The processor initiates the copyright message when powered on or when connection via Internet protocol (IP) is established. Vx.xx is the firmware version number.
]
Password: The processor initiates the password message immediately after the copyright message when the controlling system is connected using TCP/IP or Telnet and the processor is password protected. The processor requires an administrator or user level password before performing the commands entered.
N
]
The processor initiates the login message when a correct administrator or user password has been entered. If the user and administrator passwords are the same, the processor defaults to administrator privileges.
Password prompt is re-displayed if an incorrect password is entered.

Reconfig The processor sends the Reconfig message whenever a new resolution is applied.
N
Exen The processor initiates the Exe message when Executive mode is toggled on or off from the front panel. “n” is the Executive mode status: 1 = on, 0 = off.

Response given is seen via RS-232 connection only.

Processor Error Responses

When the USP 507 receives an SIS command and determines that it is valid, it performs the command and sends a response to the host device. If the processor is unable to perform the command because the command is invalid or contains invalid parameters, the processor returns an error response to the host. The error response codes are:
E01 — Invalid input channel number (out of range) E10 — Invalid command E11 — Invalid preset number E12 — Invalid output number/port number E13 — Invalid parameter (out of range) E14 — Command not available for this configuration E17 — Invalid command for this signal type E22 — Busy E24 — Privilege violation E25 — Device not present E26 — Maximum number of connections exceeded E27 — Invalid event number E28 — Bad filename/file not found

Using the Command/Response Table for SIS Commands

The command/response table begins on page 4-7. Lowercase letters are acceptable in the command field except where indicated. The table below shows the hexadecimal equivalent of ASCII characters used in the command/response tables.
ASCII to HEX Conversion Table
ASCII to hexadecimal conversion
Symbols are used throughout the table to represent variables in the command/ response fields. Command and response examples are shown throughout the table.
N
If unit does not support or recognize the entered commands, nothing happens and no response is issued.

The USP 507 checks several possibilities, in the following order, and then
responds accordingly:
Does the address include a specific file name, such as
“192.168.254.254/file_name.html”? If so, the unit downloads that HTML page.
Is there a file in the device’s memory that is named “index.html”?
• If so, the device downloads “index.html” as the default startup page.
If neither of the above conditions is true, the device downloads the
factory-installed default startup page, “nortxe_index.html” (figure 6-2), also known as the System Status page.
Any of the five main pages (System Status, Configuration, File Management, Control, and Images) can be accessed at any time by clicking on the relevant tab. Some of the main pages have a series of subpages, accessible by clicking on the links in the sidebar menu.

System Status Page

The System Status page (figure 6-2) displays system information (unit name, model, firmware version, etc.), IP settings, and serial port settings. The page updates itself periodically to reflect the latest status of the USP 507 components. If a variable changes, the display shows the change in status the next time it updates.

Scaler Settings page

Access the Scaler Settings page (figure 6-5) by clicking the Scaler Settings link on the sidebar menu on the Configuration page.
Figure 6–5 Scaler settings page
The Scaler Status page displays input configuration settings (input signal format, Auto-Image and film mode status) and output configuration settings (resolution and refresh rates, output sync format, and polarity), and advanced configuration settings (RGB delay, test pattern selection, auto memory status, switch effect, and MTP pre-peaking setting, and EDID resolution and refresh rates). Any settings can be changed and the unit updated to the new settings. The page updates itself periodically to reflect the latest status of the USP 507 components. If a variable changes, the display shows the change in status the next time it updates.
Input configuration
For each of the seven inputs, the input format can be changed by clicking on the drop-down arrow and selecting the appropriate signal type:
N
Input 1: RGB, YUVp/HDTV, Auto Detect
For each input Auto-Image can be set on or off. For each of the inputs Film mode can be enabled or disabled.

Output configuration
Depending on the optional output card installed, the output connector and display device being used, the resolution and refresh rates can be set to one of 81 output rates from 640x480/50 Hz to 1920x1200/60, including HDTV 1080p/60 Hz. For a
full table of output rates see page 3-8.
Output sync format can be chosen from RGBHV, RGsB, YUV bi- or tri-level sync. Output polarity can be selected from H-/V- (default), H+/V-, H+/V+, or H-/V+.
Advanced configuration
Within this section, RGB delay can be set from a range of 0.0 seconds up to
5.0 seconds in 0.1 second steps. Use the drop-down box to select the desired setting. When switching inputs, the new input is displayed after the current RGB delay time, for example, 2.0 seconds.
If desired, an internal test pattern can be selected from the drop-down list of 14 patterns in order to aid in the setting up of a display device.
Switch effect can be chosen from Cut (Blank), Cut (Freeze), and Fade. Depending on the selected effect, the images go blank, freezes, or fades when inputs are switched.
Auto memories can be toggled on or off as desired. When using the MTP (twisted pair) output, the pre-peaking setting can be turned
on or off to compensate for the poor image quality of video signals transmitted over long distance twisted pair cable runs to a remote display. A compatible Extron MTP Series Twisted Pair Receiver is required for this output type.
Using EDID emulation, the USP 507 provides a means for specifying the rate of the incoming DVI or VGA signal, and allows proper communication with the video source. EDID settings can be selected from the drop-down resolution and refresh rate lists.

Default address

To access the USP 507 via the Ethernet port, you need the unit’s IP address. If the address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, the actual numeric IP address can be determined using the ping utility. If the address has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.
Ping can also be used to test the Ethernet link to the USP 507
Ping to determine Extron IP address
The ping utility is available at the command (Cmd) prompt. Ping tests the Ethernet interface between the computer and the USP 507. Ping can also be used to determine the actual numeric IP address from an alias and to determine the Web address.
Ping the device as follows:
1
. From the Windows Start menu, select Run... . The Run window opens.
2. In the Open text field, enter command.

Telnet tips

It is not the intention of this manual to detail all of the operations and functionality of Telnet. However, some basic level of understanding is necessary for operating the USP 507 via Telnet.
Connecting to the USP 507 (Open command)
You connect to the USP 507 using the Open command. Once your computer is connected to the unit you can enter the SIS commands the same as you would if you were using the RS-232 link.
Connect to the device as follows:
1
. At the Telnet prompt, enter open IP address.
If the processor is not password protected, no further prompts are displayed
until you disconnect from the USP 507.
If the processor is password protected, Telnet displays the password prompt.
. If necessary, enter the password at the password prompt.
2
Connection to the processor via the Ethernet can be password protected.
There are two levels of password protection: administrator and user.
A person logged on as an administrator has full access to all the processing
capabilities and editing functions.
Users can select test patterns, mute or unmute the output, select a blue
screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the processor is delivered with both passwords set to carriage return.
Once you are logged in, the processor returns either Login Administrator or
Login User. No further prompts are displayed until you disconnect the from the USP 507.
Escape character and Esc key
When Telnet is first started, the utility advises that the Escape character is ‘Ctrl+]’. Many SIS commands include the keyboard Esc key. Consequently, some confusion may exist between the Escape character and the Esc key.
The Telnet Escape character is a key combination: the Ctrl key and the ] key pressed simultaneously. Pressing these keys displays the Telnet prompt while leaving the connection to the USP 507 intact.
The Escape key is the Esc key on the computer keyboard.
Local echo
Once your computer is connected to the USP 507, by default Telnet does not display your keystrokes on the screen. SIS commands are entered blindly, and only the SIS responses are displayed on the screen. To command Telnet to show all keystrokes, enter set local echo at the Telnet prompt before you open the connection to the processor.
With local echo turned on, keystrokes and the processor’s responses are displayed on the same line. Example: 1*1*1!01Out01 In01 All where 1*1*1! is the SIS command and 01Out01 In01 All is the response.
Note that all keystrokes are displayed, even those that should be masked, such as the password entry. For example, when entering a password with local echo turned on, you see a display such as a*d*m*i*n*, where admin is the keyed-in password and ***** is the masked response.

Local echo can be turned off by entering unset local_echo at the Telnet prompt. If your computer is connected to the USP 507, and you need to access the Telnet prompt to turn local echo off, enter the Escape sequence (Ctrl + ]).
Setting carriage return-line feed
Unless commanded otherwise, Telnet transmits a line feed character only (no carriage return) to the connected processor when you press the Enter key. This is the correct setting for SIS communication with the processor. The Telnet set crlf command forces Telnet to transmit carriage return and line feed characters when Enter is pressed; however, if crlf is set, the SIS link with the processor does not function properly.
Closing the link to the processor
To close the link to the processor, access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escape sequence (Ctrl + ]). At the Telnet prompt, enter close.
Help
For Telnet command definitions, enter ? at the Telnet prompt.
Exiting Telnet (Quit command)
Exit the Telnet utility by entering quit at the Telnet prompt. If you are connected to the USP 507, access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escape sequence (Ctrl + ]).

Subnetting — A Primer

A subnet is a subset of a network — a set of IP devices that have portions of their IP addresses in common. It is not the purpose of this manual to describe TCP/ IP protocol in detail. However, some understanding of TCP/IP subnetting is necessary in order to understand the interaction of the USP 507 and the mail server gateway. To understand subnetting at the level required to install and operate the USP 507, you must understand the concepts of a gateway, local and remote devices, IP addresses and octets, and subnet masks and octets.

Gateways

The USP 507 can communicate with the e-mail server that it uses for e-mail notification directly (if they are on the same subnet), or the communication can be routed via a gateway (a computer that provides a link between different subnets).

Local and remote devices

The local and remote devices are defined from the point of view of the function being described. In this manual, subnetting is an issue when you are using the controlling PC to set TCP/IP values in the USP 507.

IP addresses and octets

Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields, properly called “octets”, which are separated by dots (periods) (figure B-4). Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to 3 digits total per octet, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.

255 indicates that this octet will be
0 indicates that this octet will not be compared between two IP addresses

Subnet masks and octets

The subnet mask (figure B-5) is used to determine whether the local and remote devices are on the same subnet or different subnets. The subnet mask consists of four numeric octets separated by dots. Each octet can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to 3 digits total per octet, are optional. Each octet typically contains either 255 or 0. The octets determine whether or not the same octets of two IP addresses will be compared when determining if two devices are on the same subnet.

Figure B–5 Subnet mask and octets

Determining whether devices are on the same subnet

To determine the subnet, the local device’s IP address is compared to the remote device’s IP address (figure B-6 below). Each address’s octets are compared or not, depending on the value in the related subnet mask octet.
If a subnet mask octet contains the value 255, the related octets of the local device’s address and the remote device’s IP address are unmasked.
Unmasked octets are compared (indicated by ? in figure B-6).
If the subnet mask octet contains the value 0, the related octets of the local device’s and remote device’s IP addresses are masked.
Masked octets are not compared (indicated by X in figure B-6).
If the unmasked octets of the two IP addresses match (indicated by = in figure B-6, example 1), the two addresses are on the same subnet.
If the two unmasked fields do not match (indicated by an unequal sign in figure B-6, example 2 and example 3), the addresses are not on the same subnet.
