Introduction

About the SW MTP T Series Switchers

The SW2 MTP T 15HD A, SW4 MTP T 15HD A, and SW6 MTP T 15HD A switchers are two, four, or six input, VGA or other high resolution video and computer audio switchers with a proprietary twisted pair (MTP) transmitter output that incorporates the selected video and mono audio signals and a separate stereo audio-only output.

The twisted pair (TP) output is compatible with long-distance transmission to an Extron MTP receiver over Extron’s Enhanced Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable or over Category (CAT) 5 shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable.

The switcher is a part of the Extron VersaTools™ line of basic distribution amplifiers, switchers, transmitters, receivers, and associated video accessories.

The MTP switcher inputs high resolution video on 15-pin HD connectors and audio on 3.5 mm stereo jacks (figure 1-1). The transmitter also can accept component video, S-video, or composite video. The transmitter converts the selected video and audio input signals to proprietary signals and outputs them to the MTP receiver on an RJ-45 connector. The transmitter also makes the selected input audio available for local use on a

3.5 mm 5-pin captive screw connector.

Sound System

The MTP switcher requires either an MTP R 15HD A, MTP RL 15HD A, or VTR001 receiver. The receiver inputs the transmitted proprietary signal and converts the signal back into its high resolution video and mono audio components.

The VTR001 is a video-only receiver.

All models have contact closure and RS-232 remote control capability through the 9-pin Remote connector. The KP 6 wired remote control and the IR 102 Kit infrared remote control are optional remote controls for input selection. The KP 6 has a 25-foot cable. The IR 102 has an approximate 30-foot range.

These switchers are housed in rack-mountable, 1U high, half rack-width metal enclosures. They ship with external desktop 12 V power supplies that accept 100 to 240 VAC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz input.

Front panel buttons, a contact closure or RS-232 controller, or the auto switching option can be used for input selection.

TP cable advantages

Twisted pair cable is much smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial cable. The Extron TP products make cable runs simpler and less cumbersome. Termination of the cable with RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical.

Transmission distance

The maximum distance is determined by the output frequency and resolution. The table on the next page specifies the recommended maximum transmission distances and Pre-Peak switch positions (see item 5 on page 2-9) to MTP receivers using Extron Skew-Free A/V UTP cable or UTP CAT 5 cable, terminated with CAT 5 rated connectors.

It is possible to exceed the recommended distance, however, image quality may be reduced.

The MTP switcher and the receivers perform best with Extron Skew-Free A/V cable, terminated in accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568 A wiring standard. CAT 5 cable is acceptable but less preferable. We also recommend the use of pre-terminated and tested cable. Cable terminated on site should be tested before use to ensure that it complies with Category 5 specifications.

Mounting the Switcher

The SW MTP T can be set on a table, mounted on a rack shelf, mounted to a rack without a shelf, or mounted under a desk, podium, or tabletop.

Tabletop use

Four self-adhesive rubber feet are included with the switcher. For tabletop use, attach one foot at each corner of the bottom side of the unit and place the unit in the desired location.

Rack mounting

For optional rack mounting, do not install the rubber feet. Mount the switcher on a standard or basic 19" 1U VersaTools rack shelf (Extron part #60-190-20 or #60-604-20) or a standard or basic 1U Universal rack shelf (Extron part #60-190-01 or #60-604-01). On the Universal rack shelves, the switcher mounts in one of two locations to the rear of the rack or in one of two locations to the front of the rack.

1. Remove rubber feet if they were previously installed on the bottom of the switcher.

2. Mount the switcher on the rack shelf, using two 4-40 x 3/16" screws in opposite (diagonal) corners to secure it to the shelf (figure 2-1 and figure 2-2).

3. Install blank panel(s) or other unit(s) on the rack shelf.

4. Attach the rack shelf to the rack using the supplied bolts.

Only products in the VersaTools line can be mounted on a VersaTools shelf. Most 1U rack-mountable Extron products can be mounted on the standard shelf.

TP Cable Termination

RJ-45 termination must comply with the TIA/EIA T 568A or TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standards for all connections. If you are using Enhanced SkewFree A/V UTP cable, then you should use the TIA/EIA T 568A standard only.

Figure 2-11 details the recommended termination of TP cables with RJ-45 connectors in accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568A or TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standards. You can use either standard with CAT 5 cable, but ensure that you use the same standard on both ends of the cable.

Front Panel Operations

Plug in all system components and turn on the input devices (such as desktop computers and laptops) and the output monitors. Select an input. The image should appear on the monitor connected to the selected output.

Normal and auto switch mode

All SW MTP T switchers can operate in either normal (manual) mode or auto switch mode. In auto switch mode, the highest numbered input with a sync signal present is automatically selected for output. If no sync signal is present, no input is selected. Front panel input selection is blocked while in auto switch mode. However, the front panel LEDs remain functional and the buttons can be used to change the mode.

Selecting normal switch mode

Skew Delay Problems

CAT 5 TP cable can lead to registration errors between the red, green, and blue video signals. Pair skew can be measured with test equipment or identified by viewing a crosshatch test pattern with a critical eye to determine if either the red, green, or blue video image leads (appears to the left of) the other two video images. These images can be minimized or eliminated by one of the following methods:

• Switching to Extron’s Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable

• Adding a skew compensation cable equal to the length of pair skew to the receiver’s output

• Installing an SEQ 100 BNC Skew Equalizer on the transmitter’s video input or the receiver’s video output and adjusting the skew for the leading video image

Remote Control

The SW MTP T Series switcher’s rear panel Remote connector (Figure 4-1) can be connected to the serial port of a host device, such as a computer or control system, to an Extron IR 102 Kit Universal Remote Control, OR to a remote contact closure device. Other than the IR 102 Kit, remote communications with the switcher are via Extron’s Simple Instruction Set (SIS™), Extron’s Windows-based control program, or pin-programmed in the case of a contact closure device.

The RS-232 protocol for the rear panel Remote connector is as follows:

• 9600 baud • no parity

• 8-bit, 1 stop bit • no flow control

For RS-232 and IR control, use a control cable with only pins 2, 3, and 5 connected. To accomplish this, either cut the wires to the other pins in hard-shelled connectors, or remove the unneeded pins from molded plugs.

For contact closure, use a control cable with pins 2 and 3 NOT connected. To accomplish this, either cut the wires to these pins in hard-shelled connectors or remove these pins from molded plugs.

Simple Instruction Set Control

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 character sequence. When a command is valid, the switcher executes the command and sends a response to the host device. All responses from the switcher to the host 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.

Function

Input #2

Input #3 Input #4 Input #5 Input #6

Switcher-initiated (unsolicited) messages

When a local event, such as a front panel operation or error condition, occurs, the switcher responds by sending a message to the host. The switcher-initiated messages are listed below:

(C) Copyright 2004, Extron Electronics SWn MTP T 15HD A, Vx.xx The switcher issues the copyright message when it first powers on. n is the number of possible inputs and Vx.xx is the firmware version number.

Alln The switcher issues the Alln message when a front panel input

selection operation occurs. n is the input number. Sig•n•n•n•n•n•n

The switcher initiates this message when there is a change in the status of an input. n = 1 indicates video signal present, n = 0 indicates video signal not present. There are as many ns in the switcher-initiated message as the maximum number of inputs for the models (2, 4, or 6). For example: Sig•1•1•1•0•1•0 , in which the input signal is present on inputs 1, 2, 3, and 5 and no signal is present on inputs 4 and 6.

Error responses

When the switcher receives a valid SIS command, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. If the switcher is unable to execute the command because the command is invalid or it contains invalid parameters, the switcher returns an error response to the host. The error response codes are:

E01

- Invalid input channel number (out of range)

- Invalid input channel change (auto switch mode

E06

active)

E10

- Invalid command
