cables or a locally-constructed contact closure device to the 4-pole captive screw
connector. The three left poles (1, 2, and 3) are used to select inputs 1 through 3 when
momentarily shorted to the ground pole. The closure accepts a momentary or latching
contact.

NOTE: Auto switch mode must be disabled. To disable auto switch mode, use the

SIS commands (see the Auto switch mode commands on page 21) or the XTP
Configuration Software (see Auto-input Switching panel on page 38).

In conjunction with the tally connector, the currently selected input can be indicated.

Tally Out connector — To remotely identify the currently selected input, connect a

J

locally-constructed device into the 4-pole captive screw connector. Connect the power
wire for the device into the +V pin and connect the ground wire for each indicator in the
corresponding tally out pole (1, 2, or 3).

When an input is selected, by either contact closure or front panel selection, the
corresponding tally out pole shorts to ground, closing the circuit and lighting the
connected indicator (LED).

This connector can also be used with Extron Show Me
cables and the contact closure connector. For each
Show Me cable, connect the red pigtail to the associated pole
of the contact closure connector and the black pigtail to the
associated pole on the tally out connector (see the diagram to

Supported cables

The XTP T USW 103 4K is compatible with shielded twisted pair (F/UTP, SF/UTP, and
S/FTP) and unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) cables.

ATTENTION:

• Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or STP201

cable to link the XTP products.

• N’utilisez pas le câble AV Skew-Free UTP version améliorée UTP23SF d’Extron ou

le câble STP201 pour relier les produits XTP.

• To ensure FCC Class A and CE compliance, STP cables and STP connectors are

required.

• Afin de s’assurer de la compatibilité entre FCC Classe A et CE, les câbles STP et

les connecteurs STP sont nécessaires.

Cable recommendations

Extron recommends using the following practices for XTP communication to achieve full
transmission distances up to 330 feet (100 meters) and reduce transmission errors.

• Use the following Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cables and connectors for the best

performance:

• XTP DTP 24/1000 Non-Plenum 1000’ (305 m) spool 22-236-03

• XTP DTP 24P/1000 Plenum 1000’ (305 m) spool 22-235-03

• XTP DTP 24 Plug Package of 10 101-005-02

• If not using XTP DTP 24 cable, at a minimum, Extron recommends 24 AWG, solid

conductor, STP cable with a minimum bandwidth of 400 MHz.

• Terminate cables with shielded connectors to the TIA/EIA-T568B standard.

• Limit the use of more than two pass-through points, which may include patch points,

punch down connectors, or couplers. If these pass-through points are required, use
shielded couplers and punch down connectors.

XTP T USW 103 4K Switcher • Installation 11

NOTE: When using STP cable in bundles or conduits, consider the following:

wisted

Pins:

• Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.

• Do not comb the cable for the first 20 m, where cables are straightened, aligned,

and secured in tight bundles.

• Loosely place cables and limit the use of tie wraps or hook-and-loop fasteners.

• Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.

Twisted Pair Cable Termination for Pass-Through Ethernet Communication

The twisted pair cable used for Ethernet communication depends on the network speed.
The LAN connectors support both 10BASE-T (10 Mbps Ethernet) and 100BASE-T
(100 Mbps Fast Ethernet), half-duplex and full-duplex Ethernet connections. Terminate
the RJ-45 connectors for Ethernet communcation with straight-through or crossover
termination standards.

NOTES:

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

or Fast Ethernet.

• To avoid transmission errors, do not stretch or bend the cables.

• Crossover cable — Wire one end of the twisted pair cable with the T568A standard

and the other with the T568B standard. Use this to connect to a computer.

• Straight-through (patch) cable — Wire both ends of the twisted pair cable with the

T568B standard. Use this to connect to a switch, hub, or router.

The XTP T USW 103 4K operates in one of the following input switch modes:

• Auto switch mode — Automatically switches inputs based on availability.

• Normal switch mode — Switches inputs only when the input is selected through the

front panel buttons, SIS commands, or the XTP System Configuration Software.

Auto switch mode

The auto switch mode set from the front panel buttons automatically switches to the highest
numbered input with an active video signal. To enable this mode, press and hold inputs 1
and 3 simultaneously until the Auto Switch LED lights (after about 3 seconds). This mode
disables when normal switch mode is enabled.

NOTE: To set the auto switch mode to prioritize the lowest numbered active input

use SIS commands (see Auto switch mode SIS commands on page 21). Normal
switch mode is the default switch mode.

The audio input selected depends on the audio input selection setting (see Audio input

selection SIS commands on page 21).

Normal switch Mode

In normal switch mode, press the input selection button that corresponds with the desired
rear panel input connector to select an input. The corresponding LED lights to indicate the
active input.

To enable this mode, press and hold inputs 1 and 2 simultaneously until the Auto Switch

SIS Configuration and Control

The XTP T USW 103 4K can be configured and controlled using Extron Simple Instruction Set
(SIS) commands or the XTP System Configuration Software (see Configuration Software
on page 27). This section contains SIS communication details and SIS commands and
responses when connected directly to an XTP T USW 103 4K. Topics in this section include:

• Host Device Connection

• SIS Overview

• Command and Response Tables for SIS Commands

Host Device Connection

Use a computer running the Extron DataViewer utility or use a control system to enter SIS
commands. To connect directly to an XTP T USW 103 4K, connect the computer to the
front panel configuration port (see figure 11, B on page 16) or the rear panel RS-232
connector (see figure 2, H on page 5). The protocol for the serial port is as follows: 9600
baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no flow control.

SIS Overview

Host and Device Communication

Unsolicited Message

SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are required
to begin or end a command sequence. When the XTP T USW 103 4K determines that a
command is valid, it 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.

When the switcher is connected through the serial port only and a local event occurs, the
device responds by sending a message to the host.

The following copyright message is displayed after a power cycle via RS-232.

(C) Copyright YYYY, Extron Electronics, XTP T USW 103 4K Vx.xx, 60-1550-12]

YYYY is the year. Vx.xx is the firmware version number.

XTP T USW 103 4K Switcher • SIS Configuration and Control 19

Error Responses

When the XTP T USW 103 4K receives an SIS command and determines that it is valid, it
performs the command and sends the corresponding response to the host device. If the
command is determined invalid or contains invalid parameters, the receiver returns an error
response to the host. The error response codes are:

E01 = Invalid input number
E06 = Invalid switch attempt in this mode
E10 = Invalid command
E11 = Invalid preset number

E12 = Invalid port number
E13 = Invalid parameter
E14 = Not valid for this configuration
E17 = Invalid command for signal type

Command and Response Table Overview

The command and response tables for SIS commands list the commands the switcher
recognizes as valid, the responses returned to the host, a description of the command
function or results of executing the command, and some examples of commands in ASCII.

NOTE: Uppercase and lowercase text are interchangeable unless otherwise stated.
