Step 1: Check what’s in the box
TP-789Rxr HDMI Line Receiver
Step 2: Get to know your TP-789Rxr
Set the operation DIP-switches.
Lights green when an active, far-end source device input signal is
detected.
Lights green when an active sink (acceptor) output signal is detected
via the HDBT link.
Lights green when an HDBT link is established with the HDBT
transmitter.
Lights green when the device is feeding PoE power to the HDBT
connected transmitter.
Lights green when the device receives power either from the power
supply unit or by PoE.
Connect to the RJ-45 HDBT OUT connector on a transmitter (for
example, WP-20, TP-780Txr).
Connect to an HDMI acceptor.
For LAN extension to the transmitter.
IR 3.5mm Mini Jack Connector
Connect to an external infrared emitter / sensor.
RS-232 (G, Rx, Tx) 3-pin Terminal Block Connector
Connects to an RS-232 port for serial link extension to a transmitter.
48V DC Power Terminal Block Connector
If TP-789Rxr provides PoE, connect it to the Kramer power supply.
If it accepts PoE, no power connection is needed.

Step 3: Install TP-789Rxr
Install TP-789Rxr 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. For
more information go to
www.kramerav.com/downloads/TP-789Rxr.
Mount the unit in a rack using an optional RK-3T rack adapter.
Step 4: Connect the inputs and outputs
Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your TP-789Rxr. For best results, we recommend that you
always use Kramer high-performance cables to connect AV equipment to TP-789Rxr.
Connecting TP-789Rxr as a power provider:
Connecting TP-789Rxr as a power acceptor:

For the HDBT connector, see the wiring diagram below:
All DIP-switches are set to OFF (up) by default.
Changes to DIP-switch 4 only takes effect after
rebooting the device.
OFF – Normal HDBT range.
ON – HDBT ultra-long range (provides
increased range at a reduced bandwidth).
For future use. Set to OFF (up).
OFF – IR frequency is 38kHz.
ON – Wide-range modulated IR frequency.
OFF – Normal operation mode.
ON – FW upgrade mode.
When set to ON device operation is
disabled.
For optimum range and performance use the
recommended Kramer cables available at
www.kramerav.com/product/TP-789Rxr.
Step 5: Connect the power
When used as a PoE provider, connect the 48V DC power supply to TP-789Rxr and plug it into the mains electricity (to also provide
power to a transmitter).
When accepting power from an HDBT transmitter via PoE there is no need to connect the 48V DC power supply.
