Figure 6: Internet Protocol Properties Window

7. Click OK.

8. Click Close.

5.2 Remote control of unit via HDBaseT Ethernet Link

You can connect the Ethernet port of the remote HDBaseT transmitter (if available) to the Ethernet

port of a PC to obtain remote control of TP-900UHD via HDBaseT Link. All IP address configurations for PC must be the same as in previous 5.1 item.

Page 16

5.3 Connecting the Ethernet Port via a Network Hub or Switch

You can connect the Ethernet port of the TP-900UHD to the Ethernet port on a network hub using a straight through cable with RJ-45 connectors.

5.4 RS-232 Control over HDBaseT

You can connect to the transmitter/receiver system via an RS-232 connection.

To make this connection active, it is necessary in SYSTEM PARAMETER submenu set parameter PORT RS232 DESTINATION: to “PASS THROUGH” option.

To connect the RS-232 9-pin D-sub serial port:

• Pin 2 to the TX pin on the TP-900UHD RS-232 terminal block

• Pin 3 to the RX pin on the TP-900UHD RS-232 terminal block

• Pin 5 to the GND pin on the TP-900UHD RS-232 terminal block

Figure 3 shows RS-232 bidirectional control of the LCD Display by a module RC-52 that is connected to a TP-582T.

5.5 IR Control Over HDBaseT

Since the IR signal on the TP-582T transmitter and TP-900UHD receiver is bidirectional, you can use a

remote control transmitter (that is used for controlling a peripheral device, for example, a DVD player)

to send commands (to the AV equipment) from either end of the transmitter /receiver system. To do so,

you have to use the Kramer external IR sensor on one end (P/N: 95-0104050) and the Kramer IR emitter cable on the other end (P/N: C-A35/IRE-10)

Two IR Emitter Extension Cables are also available: a 15 meter cable and a 20 meter cable.

The example in Figure 3 illustrates how to control the DVD player that is connected to TP-582T using

a remote control, via the TP-900UHD. In this example, the External IR Sensor is connected to the IR connector of the TP-900UHD and an IR Emitter is connected between the TP-582T and the DVD player.

The DVD remote control sends a command while pointing towards the External IR Sensor. The IR signal passes through the TP cable and the IR Emitter to the DVD player, which responds to the command sent.

• RS-232 serial commands transmitted by a serial controller.

• A PC connected to the Ethernet port on the TP-900UHD via a LAN using P3000 commands (see Section 10).

• A PC connected to the Ethernet port on the remote HDBT transmitter using the same P3000 commands.

6.5 The settings that are recommended to optimize CLEAN SWITCH feature

A problem arises when for OUTPUT HDCP MODE (submenu OUTPUT CONFIGURATION) is selected the option FOLLOW INPUT, and when simultaneously one of switchable input signal contains HDCP encryption, but another don’t contain. This leads to the change of output HDCP encryption after every

input switching and therefore leads to interruption of image on the monitor screen. To avoid this

problem it is necessary to select for OUTPUT HDCP MODE – either FOLLOW OUTPUT or ALWAYS ON (submenu OUTPUT CONFIGURATION).

Besides that it is preferable to set the parameter INPUT SIGNAL LOSS HANDLE MODE to the option “FREEZE LAST PICTURE” in order to enhance the tolerance to possible long input signal intermission.

6.6 Diﬀ erent Modes of Inputs Switching

You can set the following mode of Input Switching between HDBT and HDMI using first item of INPUT CONFIGURATION menu:

• Forced toggling between HDBT and HDMI using input HDBT/HDMI button. The LED IN lights green when the HDMI input is selected and blue when. When selected input signal disappears, the unit

remains on this input and Blue Screen or other possible variant of input Signal loss handle mode

takes place. LED IN flashes repeatedly.

• Auto switch to another input signal (if it is present) when selected input signal disappears. In this

case, LED IN periodically changes color to indicate that another (not selected by button) input is

active. If selected input Signal is anew recovered then switcher automatically returns to initial state. In this Mode, button HDBT/HDMI imparts only higher priority to HDBT or HDMI input.

• Auto switch to last connected or anew recovered Input. In this Mode, after such input switching (if

both HDBT and HDMI signal become present) if then the unit is powered OFF and then ON, switcher

recovers this last connected state.

10 KRAMER PROTOCOL 3000

The TP-900UHD can be operated using serial commands from a PC, remote controller or touch screen using the Kramer Protocol 3000.

This section describes:

• Kramer Protocol 3000 syntax (see Section 12.1)

• Kramer Protocol 3000 commands (see Section 12.2)

10.1 Kramer Protocol 3000 Syntax

Host Message Format

Start Address (optional) Body Delimiter

device_id@

Message CR

Simple Command

Command string with only one command without addressing:

Start Body Delimiter

# Command SP

Parameter_1,Parameter_2,… CR

Command String

Formal syntax with commands concatenation and addressing:

Start Address (optional) Body Delimiter

device_id@

Command_1 Parameter1_1,Parameter1_2,…| Command_2 Parameter2_1,Parameter2_2,…| Command_3 Parameter3_1,Parameter3_2,…|…

Device Message Format

Start Address (optional) Body Delimiter

device_id@

Message CR LF

KRAMER ELECTRONICS, LTD.

Page 27

Device Long Response

Echoing command:

Start Address (optional) Body Delimiter

CR = Carriage return (ASCII 13 = 0x0D)

LF = Line feed (ASCII 10 = 0x0A)

SP = Space (ASCII 32 = 0x20)

device_id@

Command SP [Param1 ,Param2 …] result CR

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

Device ID (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; carriage return (ASCII 13) CRLF – For device messages; carriage return (ASCII 13) + line-feed (ASCII 10)

Page 28

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.

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 like Crestron, some characters require special

coding (such as, /X##). Refer to the controller manual.

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.

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.

Maximum String Length

64 characters
