3 Overview
The SID-X2N accepts an HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI and PC graphics video input, as
well as an unbalanced stereo audio input (which is embedded into the output
signal), and transmits the signal via HDBaseT (Twisted Pair) cable to a compatible
receiver (for example, the TP-580Rxr). The device also provides an unbalanced,
stereo audio output.
The SID-X2N provides:
• A bandwidth of up to 6.75Gbps in normal mode and up to 1080p @60Hz in
extended range mode
• A range to a receiver of up to 130m (430ft) in normal mode (1080p@60Hz
@36bpp) and up to 180m (590ft) in extended range mode (1080p@60Hz
@24bpp) when using BC−HDKat6a cables
For optimum range and performance, use Kramer's BC−DGKat524,
BC−HDKat6a and BC−DGKat7a23 shielded twist ed pair (STP) cables.
Note that the transmission range depends on the signal resolution,
graphics card and display used. The distance using non-Kramer CAT 5,
CAT 6, and CAT 7 cables may not reach these ranges.
In particular the SID-X2N: features:
• HDTV support
• HDMI with Deep Color, x.v.Color™ and 3D
• HDCP compliancy—works with sources that support HDCP repeater mode
Note: When using a MacBook as a source and the content is protected
using HDCP, if the display does not support HDCP, no video is transmitted
• Automatic live input detection based on video clock presence
• Automatic input selection based on manual selection or last connected input
• Automatic analog audio detection and embedding
• Automatic output shutdown when the input signal is lost (with a configurable
delay)

6 Principles of Operation
This chapter describes the principles of operation of the SID-X2N and comprises:
• Active input selection (see Section 6.1
• Audio signal control (see Section 6.2)
The SID-X2N selects video and audio inputs based on the rules described below.
6.1 Active Input Selection
The video mode selection is set by the DIP-switches (see Section 8.1) to either of
the following modes:
• Manual
• Last connected
In manual mode the input is selected using the front panel buttons and occurs
whether or not there is a live signal present on the input.
In last connected mode the SID-X2N selects the input based on which input was
connected last. If the signal on this input is subsequently lost for any reason, the
input with a live signal with the highest priority is selected automatically. The
priority from highest to lowest is:
• HDMI
• DisplayPort
)
• DVI
• PC
Note: In last connected mode, manually selecting an input using the front panel
Input Select button overrides the last-connected automatic selection.
When an input cable is removed, there is a delay of either 0.5 or 3 seconds,
(selectable, see Section 8.1
another input can be automatically selected according to the signal priority shown
above.

6.2 Audio Signal Control
The Option DIP-switches 2 and 3 (see Section 8.1) control the manner in which
audio is handled.
The following table describes which audio signal is embedded in the output.
6.3 Automatic Output Shutdown
The SID-X2N can disable the output (signal and 5V) when there is no signal for a
specified period in:
• Manual mode—when the signal on the currently selected input is lost
• Automatic mode—when there is no signal on any of the inputs
SID-X2N - Principle s of Oper at io n 13
The delay period is set by the DIP-switch, (see Section 8.1
). At the end of this
period, both the output signal and the power supply to other devices are disabled.
The return of an input signal on either the currently selected input (in manual
mode), or on any input (in automatic mode), immediately re-activates the output.
Page 19
7 Operating the SID-X2N
This chapter describes the operating procedures of the SID-X2N and comprises:
• Selecting an input manually (see Section 7.1
• Locking the EDID (see Section 7.2)
Powering up the SID-X2N recalls the last settings (that is, the configuration of the
device when it was powered down) from the non-volatile memory.
7.1 Selecting an Input Manually
Note: When the button is lit it is inactive and pressing the button will not activate
the input
To manually select an input:
• Press the INPUT SELECT button repeatedly until the required input is active
as indicated by the associated LED. The
Note: Only inputs that have an active signal can be selected.
Note: When the button is lit it is inactive and pressing the button will not activate
the input.
7.2 Locking the EDID
To prevent the stored EDID (either default or read from a device) from being
overwritten, set DIP-switch 5 to ON (see Section 8.1
)
).
Note: The device must be power-cycled after you change this DIP-switch.
7.3 Audio Mode Selection
Option DIP-switches 2 and 3 control the manner in which audio is handled.

12 Remote Commands
The SID-X2N can be operated using serial commands issued by a remote device
over HDBT, using Kramer Protocol 3000 commands.
This section describes:
• K ram er P rotoc ol 3000 syntax (see Section 12.1
)
• Kramer Protocol 3000 commands (see Section 12.2)
• RS-232 hardware interface (see Section 12.3)
12.1 Kramer Protocol 3000 Syntax

12.1.2.1 Device Long Response
Echoing command:
Sender_id
CR = Carriage return (ASCII 13 = 0x0D)
LF = Line feed (ASCII 10 = 0x0A)
SP = Space (ASCII 32 = 0x20)
12.1.3 Command Terms
Command
A sequence of ASCII letters ('A'-'Z', 'a'-'z' and '-').
Command and parameters must be separated by at least one space.
Parameters
A sequence of alphanumeric ASCII characters ('0'-'9','A'-'Z','a'-'z' and some special
characters for specific commands). Parameters are separated by commas.
Message string
Every command entered as part of a message string begins with a message
starting character and ends with a message closing character.
Note: A string can contain more than one command. Commands are separated by
a pipe ( '|' ) character.
Message starting character
'#' – For host command/query
'~' – For device response
Param1 ,Param2 …
SID-X2N - Remote Commands 27
Device address (Optional, for K-NET)
K-NET Device ID followed by '@'
Query sign
'?' follows some commands to define a query request.
Message closing character
CR – For host messages; carri age return (ASCI I 13)
CRLF – For device m essages; carriage return (ASCII 13) + line-feed (ASCII 10)
Page 33
Command chain separator character
When a message string contains more than one command, a pipe ( '|' ) character
separates each command.
Spaces between parameters or command terms are ignored.
12.1.4 Entering Commands
You can directly enter all commands using a terminal with ASCII communications
software, such as HyperTerminal, Hercules, etc. Connect the terminal to the serial
or Ethernet port on the Kramer device. To enter CR press the Enter key.
( LF is also sent but is ignored by command parser).
For commands sent from some non-Kramer controllers, (for example, Crestron)
some characters require special coding (such as, /X##). Refer to the controller
manual.
12.1.5 Command Forms
Some commands have short name syntax in addition to long name syntax to allow
faster typing. The response is always in long syntax.
12.1.6 Chaining Commands
Multiple commands can be chained in the same string. Each command is
delimited by a pipe character (“|”). When chaining commands, enter the message
starting character and the message closing character only once, at the
beginning of the string and at the end.
Commands in the string do not execute until the closing character is entered. A
separate response is sent for every command in the chain.
12.1.7 Maximum String Length
64 characters
