Step 3: Mount TP-594Txr/TP-594Rxr
Install TP-594Txr/TP-594Rxr using one of the following methods:
• Attach the rubber feet and place the unit on a flat surface.
• Fasten a bracket (included) on each side of the unit and attach it to a flat
surface (see www.kramerav.com/downloads/TP-594Txr.).
• Mount the unit in a rack using the recommended
rack adapter
(see www.kramerav.com/product/TP-594Txr).
• Ensure that the environment (e.g., maximum ambient temperature &
air flow) is compatible for the device.
• Avoid uneven mechanical loading.
• Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used for avoiding overloading of the circuits.
• Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.

Step 4: Connect the inputs and outputs
Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your TP-594Txr/TP-594Rxr. For best results, we
recommend that you always use Kramer high-performance cables to connect AV equipment to TP-594Txr/TP-594Rxr.
Wiring the RJ-45 Connectors
For the HDBT connector, see the wiring diagram
below. It is recommended that the cable ground
shielding be connected/soldered to the
connector shield
All DIP-switches are set to OFF (up) by default except DIPswitch 1 which is set to ON by default.
OFF (up) – HDBaseT ultra-long range (provides increased
range at a reduced bandwidth).
ON (down) – Normal range.
The ultra-long range mode is activated when DIPswitch 1 on at least one of the devices is set to ON.
OFF (up) – Pass-through the IR signal to the IR port via IR
cable.
ON (down) – Add IR modulation to the IR output signal
(applies only when the IR port is connected to an IR emitter
cable).
Brown
The IR Pass-through DIP-switch setup depends on
the IR control configuration. We recommend that
you test which position best suits your application.
Off – EDID is acquired automatically.
On – EDID locks the current EDID so that changes on the
output do not result in changes to the EDID.
For optimum range and performance use the
recommended Kramer cables available at
www.kramerav.com/product/TP-594T,TP-594R.
EDID remains locked to auto-EDID changes when
replacing the display device, for example, and does
not apply to manual EDID changes such as EDID
Designer EDID setup and EDID changes due to
panel keys/switches user changes.
Step 5: Connect the power
Connect the 48V DC power supply to TP-594Txr and the 12V DC power supply to the TP-594Rxr and plug both into the
mains electricity.
When TP-594Txr is used as a PoE provider for the TP-594Rxr, you do not need to connect the 12V DC power supply to the
TP-594Rxr unless power supply redundancy is needed.
Safety Instructions
There are no operator serviceable parts inside the unit.
Use only the Kramer Electronics power adapter that is provided with the unit.
Disconnect the power and unplug the unit from the wall before installing.
See www.KramerAV.com for updated safety information.

Step 6: Operate TP-594Txr/TP-594Rxr
Operate TP-594Txr/TP-594Rxr via:
• Remotely, by RS-232
serial commands
transmitted by a touch
screen system, PC, or
other serial controller.
• Embedded web pages
via the Ethernet.
