Introduction

Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis. In recent years, we have redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better!
Our 1,000-plus different models now appear in 15 groups that are clearly defined by function: GROUP 1: Distribution Amplifiers; GROUP 2: Switchers and Routers; GROUP 3: Control Systems; GROUP 4: Format & Standards Converters; GROUP 5: Range Extenders & Repeaters; GROUP 6: Specialty AV Products; GROUP 7: Scalers; GROUP 8: Cables and Connectors; GROUP 9: Room Connectivity; GROUP 10: Mounting and Rack Adapters; GROUP 11: Sierra Video; GROUP 12: Digital Signage; GROUP 13: Audio; GROUP 14: Collaboration; and GROUP 15: KM & KVM Switches.

Getting Started

We recommend that you:
Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for
possible future shipment.
Review the contents of this user manual.

Achieving the Best Performance

Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-performance,
high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).
Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils. Avoid interference from neighbouring electrical appliances that may adversely influence
signal quality.
Position your Kramer VP-428H2 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust.

Overview

Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer VP-428H2 4K HDBT Transmitter/Scaler.
VP-428H2 is an HDBaseT 4K transmitter/scaler with HDMI, DP and VGA inputs. VP-428H2
supports HDBT tunneling of Ethernet, bidirectional RS-232 and IR signals, as well as PoE to provide power to the HDBaseT receiver. It receives the selected AV signal, up-scales, down-scales or bypasses the video, according to the settings selected by the user, and converts it for sending via HDBaseT, together with the tunneled data and PoE.
VP-428H2 is housed in a compact, Kramer MegaTOOL™ enclosure which can be mounted
side by side in a 19-inch rack using the RK-T2B rack adapter.
VP-428H2 provides exceptional quality, advanced and user-friendly operation, and flexible
control.

Functionality

Supports scaling to / from all input and output resolutions. Works with any HDBT receiver (supports 4K without the need for a specialized receiver). Upscales to all popular 4K resolutions (to 4K60 4:2:0 max). Downscales from 4K60 4:4:4 to all resolutions. Automatically downscales 6G 4K color space to 4:2:0. 4K resolution bypass option, supporting HDR. HDBT tunnelling of RS-232, IR and Ethernet.

HDCP ON OUTPUT:
Select FOLLOW INPUT, to change its HDCP output setting according to the HDCP of the input. This option is recommended when the HDMI/HDCP output is connected to a splitter/switcher. Select FOLLOW OUTPUT for the scaler to match its HDCP output to the HDCP setting of the HDMI/HDCP acceptor to which it is connected.
AUTO SYNC OFF:
Turns off the output after a period of not detecting a valid video signal on the input(s) until a valid input is again detected or any keypad is pressed.
Set to: Slow – to disable outputs after 2 minutes. Fast – to disable outputs after 10 seconds. Disable – to leave outputs active at all times.
AUTO INPUT:
Set to: OFF (default) – for manual switching. Last Connected – switches to the last connected input. Scan – scans for a valid input.
AUTO IMAGE:
When ON, auto image is implemented every time the input is switched to VGA or when the input resolution changes. The auto-image feature calculates the positioning based on the picture connected to the VGA input. Only a “full screen” picture can be used for this auto-positioning – a test pattern (or some other picture) which has black along the entire top, bottom or one of the sides would not be suitable).

VP-428H2 - Protocol 3000
18
The framing of the command varies according to the terminal communication software.
.
All the examples provided in this section are based on using the K-Config software.

Protocol 3000

The VP-428H2 4K HDBT Transmitter/Scaler can be operated using the Kramer Protocol 3000 serial commands. The command framing varies according to how you interface with the VP-428H2.
Generally, a basic video input switching command that routes a layer 1 video signal to HDMI out 1 from HDMI input 2 (ROUTE 1,1,2), is entered as follows:
Terminal communication software, such as Hercules:
K-Touch Builder (Kramer software):
K-Config (Kramer configuration software):
You can enter commands directly using terminal communication software (e.g., Hercules) by connecting a PC to the serial or Ethernet port on your device. To enter CR press the Enter key (LF is also sent but is ignored by the command parser).
Commands sent from various non-Kramer controllers (e.g., Crestron) may require special coding for some characters (such as, /X##). For more information, refer to your controller’s documentation.
Page 21
Kramer Electronics Ltd.
VP-428H2 - Protocol 3000
19
A string can contain more than one command. Commands are separated by a pipe (|) character.
Spaces between parameters or command terms are ignored. Commands in the string do not execute until the closing character is entered. A separate response is sent for every command in the chain.
For more information about Protocol 3000 commands, see:
Understanding Protocol 3000 on page 19. Kramer Protocol 3000 Syntax on page 20. Protocol 3000 Commands on page 21.

Understanding Protocol 3000

Protocol 3000 commands are structured according to the following:
Command – A sequence of ASCII letters (A-Z, a-z and -). A command and its 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.
Message starting character:
# – For host command/query ~ – For device response
Device address – K-NET Device ID followed by @ (optional, K-NET only) Query sign – ? follows some commands to define a query request Message closing character:
CR – Carriage return for host messages (ASCII 13) CR LF – Carriage return for device messages (ASCII 13) and line-feed (ASCII 10)
Command chain separator character – 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 at the beginning and end of the string.

Kramer Protocol 3000 Syntax

The Kramer Protocol 3000 syntax uses the following delimiters:
CR = Carriage return (ASCII 13 = 0x0D) LF = Line feed (ASCII 10 = 0x0A) SP = Space (ASCII 32 = 0x20)
Some commands have short name syntax in addition to long name syntax to enable faster typing. The response is always in long syntax.
The Protocol 3000 syntax is in the following format:
Host Message Format:
Simple Command – Command string with only one command without addressing:
Command String – Formal syntax with command concatenation and addressing:
Device Message Format:
Device Long Response – Echoing command:

Parameters
button_num – 1 (button number) mode – 0 (mute), 1 (active) 0xff (pending)
Notes
After a SET command, LEDs show the button status: mute – button LED off active – button LED on pending – button LED flashing The Step-in master uses this command to get the actual status and identify if the device is in pending Step­in request. In reply to the Step-in request, the Step-in master updates the button status by sending set to activate and configures the Step-in action. Other Step-in clients are set to mute.

Parameters
stage – 0 (Input), 1 (Output) stage_id – 1 (Scaler) is_native – 0 (Off), 1 (On)
resolution – Select video resolutions: 0-28 (see Output Resolutions Key on page 32)
Response triggers
After execution, response is sent to the com port from which the Set /Get was received  After execution, response is sent to all com ports if VID-RES was set by any other external control
device (button press, device menu and similar)
Notes
1. The “Set” command is only applicable when stage = 1 (Output)
2. The “Set” command with is_native = 1 (On), sets the native resolution on the selected output (resolution index sent = 0). The device sends as an answer the actual VIC ID of native resolution.
3. The “Get” command with is_native = 1 (On) returns the native resolution VIC; when is_native = 1 (Off), it returns the current resolution
