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!
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.
Go to www.kramerav.com/downloads/TP-789Rxr to check for up-to-date user manuals,
application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).
Achieving 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 neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence
signal quality.
• Position your Kramer WP-789T, WP-789R, TP-789R, TP-789Rxr away from moisture,
excessive sunlight and dust.
Safety Instructions
Caution:
• This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be connected to other
equipment that is installed inside a building.
• For products with relay terminals and GPI\O ports, please refer to the permitted rating
for an external connection, located next to the terminal or in the User Manual.
• There are no operator serviceable parts inside the unit.
Warning:
• Use only the power cord that is supplied with the unit.
• To ensure continuous risk protection, replace fuses only according to the rating
specified on the product label which located on the bottom of the unit.

Overview
Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer WP-789T, WP-789R, TP-789R, TP-789Rxr
HDMI Line Transmitters and Receivers over HDBaseT.
WP-789T, WP-789R, TP-789R, TP-789Rxr are high-performance, long-reach (WP-789T,
WP-789R, TP-789R) and extended-reach (TP-789Rxr) HDBaseT transmitters and receivers
for 4K@60Hz (4:2:0) HDMI™, RS-232 and IR signals and powering over HDBaseT.
• High Performance Standard Extenders – Professional HDBaseT extenders for providing
long-reach or extended-reach signals and powering over twisted-pair copper
infrastructures. The extenders are standard and can be connected to any marketavailable HDBaseT-compliant extension product.
For optimum extension reach and performance, use recommended Kramer cables.
• PoE (Power over Ethernet) – Auto-senses the extension line PoE status and either
provides power (TP-789R, TP-789Rxr only) to a remote PoE acceptor such as a PoE
wall-plate, or accepts power (all models) from a remote PoE provider such as a PoE
matrix.
• HDMI Signal Extension – Supports deep color, x.v.Color™, lip sync, HDMI
uncompressed audio channels, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, 2K, 4K, and 3D as specified in
HDMI 2.0. EDID and CEC signals are passed through between the source and the
display.
• I-EDIDPro™ Kramer Intelligent EDID Processing™ – Intelligent EDID pass-through
algorithm that ensures plug & play operation for HDMI source and display systems.
• Multi-channel Audio Extension – Up to 32 channels of digital stereo uncompressed
signals for supporting studio-grade surround sound.
• Ethernet Extension (TP-789Rxr only) – Ethernet interface data flows in both directions,
allowing extension of up to 100Mbps Ethernet connectivity for LAN communication and
device control.
• Bidirectional RS-232 Extension – Serial interface data flows in both directions, allowing
data transmission and device control.
• Bidirectional Infrared Extension – IR interface data flows in both directions, allowing
remote control of peripheral devices located at either end of the HDBaseT extension.

Connecting to WP-789T, WP-789R IR Terminal Block
WP-789T can either emit or receive an IR signal and WP-789R can emit an IR signal. This
section explains how to connect an IR emitter or sensor to the WP-789T or WP-789R IR
terminal block in order to achieve the required configuration.
Both WP-789T/WP-789R and the HDBaseT unit on the other end need to have identical IR
frequency settings.
Emitting 38kHz IR Signals
WP-789T and WP-789R can emit a 38kHz IR signal, received via the HDBaseT receiver
using a fixed 38kHz IR sensor, to control a device that is connected to WP-789T or WP-789R
(for example, a Blu-ray player source or display).
To emit a 38kHz IR signal:
• Connect the emitter wires to the WP-789T or WP-789R IR terminal block as illustrated in
(Figure 9).

Figure 9: Connecting 38kHz IR Emitter – 38kHz
Emitting Wide-Range Modulated IR Signals
WP-789T and WP-789R can emit a wide-range modulated IR signal, received via the
HDBaseT receiver using a wide-range IR sensor, to control a device that is connected to
WP-789T or WP-789R (for example, a Blu-ray player source or display).
To emit a wide-range modulated IR signal:
• Connect the emitter wires to the WP-789T or WP-789R IR terminal block as illustrated in
(Figure 10).

18
Extending IR Signals
WP-789T can receive IR commands from the IR port of a controller (for example, Kramer
SL-240C). WP-789T can then extend the signal to an acceptor (for example, a display) that is
connected to the IR port of the HDBaseT receiver (for example, Kramer TP-789R) via IR
emitter cable.
To extend an IR signal from a controller:
• Connect the controller IR output to the WP-789T IR terminal block as illustrated in
Figure 11.

Configuring WP-789T, WP-789R, TP-789R, TP-789Rxr
WP-789T, WP-789R, TP-789R, TP-789Rxr enable you to configure IR frequency and
TP-789Rxr enables you to configure HDBaseT range.
Setting DIP-Switches
TP-789R and TP-789Rxr include DIP-switches that enable you to set the HDBaseT range,
and IR frequency.
All DIP-switches are set to OFF (up) by default.
Changes to DIP-switch 4 only take effect after rebooting the device. Changes to the other
DIP switches take effect immediately.

Setting IR Frequency
WP-789T, WP-789R, TP-789R, TP-789Rxr enable you to set the IR frequency to either fixed
38kHz or wide-range modulated frequency. Set the device to 38kHz for backward
compatibility with 38kHz IR extension.
Setting TP-789R/TP-789Rxr IR Frequency
To set the TP-789R/TP-789Rxr IR Frequency:
• Set DIP-switch 3 according to the DIP-switch configuration table (see Setting DIP-
Switches on page 19).
Setting WP-789T and WP-789R IR Frequency
To set the WP-789T and WP-789R frequency:
• Wire the IR terminal block according the instructions above (see Connecting to WP-
789T, WP-789R IR Terminal Block on page 17).
Setting HDBaseT Range Mode for TP-789Rxr
TP-789Rxr enables you to set the HDBaseT range mode as either normal or ultra-long, which
provides increased range at a reduced bandwidth.
To set the TP-789Rxr HDBaseT range mode:
• Set DIP-switch 1 according to the DIP-switch configuration table (see Setting DIP-
Switches on page 19).
