10 www.intelix.com

IR Emitter Mounting Tips

Surrounding electrical equipment may be producing high

levels of IR noise. Plasma TVs and compact fluorescent lights are known polluters. Shield the outside of the emitter and the hardware’s IR window with electrical tape.

Verify the emitter is directly on the hardware’s IR window

and directly over the IR sensor. Operation may be intermittent if the emitter is too far away from the sensor.

Clean the DIGI-HD-8X8 IR sensor window with an alcohol-

ased cleaner before applying the emitter to guarantee

adhesion.

Should the emitter not adhere to the DIGI-HD-8X8 sensor

window, apply a small drop of glue to the adhesion pad on the emitter and re-apply.

IR Twisted Pair Pass-Through

When used with compatible Intelix receivers (DIGI-HDMI-IR-R), the DIGIHD-8X8 supports eight pass-through IR channels which distribute remote IR commands from in-room controllers, up to 150 feet over twisted pair cable, and out of the matrix.

1. Determine which devices you wish to control via the IR pass-through outputs.

Note: By default, IR transmit output one corresponds to HDMI input one, IR transmit output two corresponds to HDMI input two, IR transmit output three corresponds to HDMI input three, and IR transmit output four corresponds to HDMI input four. Therefore, the IR output port will control the source connected to the HDMI input.

2. Connect an IR cable to the desired IR transmit output port.

3. Repeat for up to eight devices.

Note: Optionally, IR commands for the matrix may be transmitted from a remote receive balun. For successful operation, the output of the IR transmit output port must be routed to the 1/8” (3.5 mm) IR rear panel connector or the front panel IR sensor.

Intelix DIGI-HD-8X8 Installation Manual

Addendum A: Communication Protocol

Serial Message Protocol Overview—Simple escaped—Version

The Intelix Simple escaped version serial message protocol can be related to the data link layer (layer 2) of the ISO layered communications model. It is a connectionless datagram messaging protocol.

Serial Message Fields

All serial messages, whether they are transmitted to or from an Intelix device, use the same message format. Each message contains several distinct fields. All values are transmitted in hexadecimal format e.g. 0Ah.

Serial Message Fields; Version 3

Send Message Frame (Simple escaped Protocol)

Protocol Start Length Data

1 byte 1 byte 0<n<255 bytes F1h ##h

The first field of a message is always the START byte. The second field is a 1byte length. The value of the length field is the number of bytes in the third field, the data field. The third field, the data field, holds the parameters of the message e.g. Message Class, Message ID, Parameters, etc.

Hexadecimal Transmission

The Intelix Matrix Mixer must receive all messages in hexadecimal number code. If messages are transmitted in decimal or ASCII codes, they will fail to

work. Hexadecimal is a base 16 number code that uses numerals 0-10 and letters A, B, C, D, E, F. In this document hex numbers are represented in the form “xxh”, where xx are the two hex characters.

ASCII values

When you send commands to an Intelix Device, there is one and only one case when you use ASCII codes. That case is when you send names. Whenever a

name field appears in an example in this manual, the example is enclosed in quotation marks. Any other use of ASCII values will cause the command to fail. For example the command Set Matrix Mixer Name uses as an example name field “Emmanuel Lutheran Church”. The quotes indicate that this data should be sent as ASCII values. To do this use an ASCII table to obtain the hex value for each character, and transmit these values. Do NOT transmit the quotation marks

unless you want the quotation marks included in the Name data written to the device. The Quotation marks in the examples are ASCII text delimiters for the user of this manual.

Byte Escape Sequence

The Simple escaped version message protocol used an “escape byte” sequence to insure unambiguous recognition of protocol control bytes (F0 – FFh). If a byte in the length, data, or checksum fields falls within the range F0h through FFh inclusive, an escape sequence is used to transmit the value. The value is translated by sending two bytes: the ESCAPE byte (F0h) itself, followed by the

www.intelix.com

Intelix DIGI-HD-8X8 Installation Manual

difference between the value and the ESCAPE byte. Example; If value => ESCAPE, then value = (value - ESCAPE). These two bytes are transmitted instead of the single, large-value byte. The receiving device converts the two bytes back into the original single byte value through simple addition. These

operations do not affect the values of the length or checksum fields. i.e., The Escape byte algorithm is applied to the message string last on transmission and first upon receipt (skipping the start byte).

In the following example, the data field of a message is (02h, 03h, 03h, 06h, FFh). The byte FFh must be “escaped” into the ESCAPE byte (F0h) followed by the difference between FFh and ESCAPE (FFh – F0h = 0Fh). The bytes actually transmitted are: (02h, 03h, 03h, 06h, F0h, 0Fh). Since the second byte of an escape sequence must fall within the range 00h through 0Fh inclusive, any second byte outside of that range indicates that a transmission error has occurred, and the Ack byte will not be sent.

Non-escaped example:

Serial_Start Length Class Message ID Input Output

Target Value

F1h 05h 02 03h 03h 02h F6h

Escaped example:

Serial_Start Length Class Message ID Input Output

Target Value

F1h 05h 02 03h 03h 02h F0h 06h

Reserved Bytes The following table lists the bytes which have special meaning in all Intelix Serial Message protocols:

FF Reserved FE Error FD ACK (Version 4 sequence bit 1) FC Version 3 ACK (Version 4 sequence bit 0) FB Start byte (Version 2 protocol) FA Start byte (Version 3 protocol) F9 Start byte (Version 3 escaped protocol) F8 Start byte (Version 4 protocol) F7 Reserved F6 Reserved F5 Reserved F4 Reserved F3 Reserved F2 Reserved F1 Start bytes (simple escaped protocol) F0 Escape byte
