INT-88HDX Installaon Guide

Product Overview

The Intelix INT-88HDX is an eight input by eight output HDBaseT/HDMI matrix switcher with HDCP 2.2 and 4K/30 video support. The matrix features advanced EDID and HDCP handling, including the ability to turn input HDCP compliance ON and OFF to ensure maximum funconality with a wide range of sources.

The INT-88HDX features HDBaseT twisted pair extension for each output, and simultaneous HDMI on the rst three outputs, allowing the same signal to be routed to the HDMI connector and a remote desnaon with an HDBaseT receiver. The HDBaseT ports support up to 4K/30 HDMI video with audio, bidireconal wide-band IR, matrix control via IR, RS232 tunneling, and HDCP (1.4 and 2.2) up to 100 meters (328 feet). Each HDBaseT output port supplies power to the aached extender, eliminang the need for a power supply at the display end. Each output features analog stereo audio de-embedding and coaxial mulchannel audio de-embedding for connecon to ampliers or DSPs.

The INT-88HDX can be controlled via front panel buons, front panel IR, external IR, remote IR through HDBaseT extenders, RS232, and Ethernet. The matrix includes a simple IR remote control to allow IR switching. This IR remote control can be learned into universal remotes and IR based control systems. An IR All In port is provided, which allow one IR connecon to control all four remote displays.

The matrix also features a full command set for RS232 and Ethernet control with third party control systems, plus control via a web browser. RS232 commands to remote displays can either be tunneled directly to the displays or be embedded in the control stream through the matrix from both the RS232 and Ethernet control ports, which will reduce the number of serial ports required for the control system.

Connect IR Control

The INT-88HDX features IR input connecons for the remote devices connected to the HDBaseT inputs, IR input connecons for the remote displays connected to the HDBaseT outputs, an IR input connecon to control all remote HDBaseT devices, and an IR input connecon to control the matrix. For remote displays that require IR control, Intelix recommends using the DIGI-HD60C-R or DIGI-HDX-R.

Only use the included IR receiver or the IR-AC IR adapter cable (sold separately) with the INT-88HDX4. The IR adapter cables allow third party controllers to connect directly to the IR input ports of the INT-88HDX. If addion IR receivers are required, the DIGIB-EYE is a compable substute. Third party 12V DC IR components are not compable with the INT-88HDX.

Remote Display Control via IR

An IR signal passed directly from the matrix locaon or from a third party control system can provide control of the display device through the HDBaseT connecon.

Insert a compable IR receiver into the IR input port (IR IN) of the matrix for the display device to control.

Global Control via IR

An IR signal passed directly from the matrix locaon or from a third party control system can provide control of all display devices through the HDBaseT connecons.

Insert a compable IR receiver into the IR input port (IR ALL IN) of the matrix to control all remote devices.

Concealed Matrix Control via IR

When the INT-88HDX is installed in an equipment rack or other concealed locaon, access to the front panel for normal IR control may be dicult. The IR EYE input allows the IR remote to control the matrix.

Insert a compable IR receiver into the IR input port (IR EYE) of the matrix.

INT-88HDX Installaon Guide

Connect RS232 Control

In addion to tradional RS232 control, the INT-88HDX has an advanced RS232 control mechanism which allows RS232 tunneling and roung through the HDBaseT output port to control remote devices. Intelix recommends using the DIGI-HD60C-R or DIGI-HDX-R for installaons which require RS232 extension.

See page 21 for all available control commands for the INT-88HDX.

Matrix Control via RS232

The RS232 control port requires a standard straight-through serial cable for operaon. The default sengs for the

RS232 port are:

• 9600 baud

• 8 Data Bits

• 1 Stop Bit

• Parity = none

Connect a standard straight-through serial cable with DE9 connector between the RS232 port on the INT-88HDX

and the controller.

Remote RS232 Control via Tunneling

Discrete control of remote display devices is possible by connecng an RS232 output of a control system to the 3-pole terminal block on the output of the matrix. A compable HDBaseT with control receiver is required to pass the control signals to the display devices, such as the DIGI-HD60C-R or DIGI-HDX-R.

To use the RS232 extension capabilies of the INT-88HDX, connect the TX, ground, and RX control signal wires to the removable 3-pole terminal block. Consult the manual of the control device(s) to determine which pins the TX/ RX signals are carried on. Be sure to always connect TX to RX and RX to TX.

Hybrid EDID Copy

Hybrid EDID copy is the preferred command to use when the audio is going to be routed to an analog audio output of the matrix. To copy the video EDID informaon from output 2 and specify two channel PCM audio output to input 4, transmit the following command:

EDIDH2B4.

Input HDCP Sengs

HDCP is enabled on all inputs of the INT-88HDX. If the video output of the matrix is going to a video recorder, video converencing system, or other non-HDCP compliant device, the HDCP input compliance may need to be disabled to ensure the source does not encrypt the non-encrypted content. Showing encrypted content on a non-compliant display will output a black video image. In order to change the HDCP compliance for an input, the HDCP on/o commands will need to be sent to the matrix via RS232 or TCP/IP or managed through the web browser setup interface (see page 28).

/%I/x:0.

/%I/x:1.

To turn o HDCP compliance for input 6, transmit the following command:

/%I/6:0.

Turn o HDCP Compliance for input xx

Turn on HDCP Compliance for input xx

Immediate RS232 Roung to HDBaseT

The INT-88HDX has the logic to pass RS232 commands to remote devices through the TCP/IP or DE9 RS232 ports. The desnaon command string is embedded in a command which includes the desnaon HDBaseT port and baud rate. This is a bidireconal communicaon method. The maximum string length is 48 bytes (characters).

The format of the RS232 roung string is: /+<Y>/:<$>. (The period at the end of the string is required.) <Y> is the HDBaseT port code, is the baud rate, and <$> is the RS232 string.
