EDID (Extended Display Identiﬁcation Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data is used by the source to ﬁnd out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display then from this information the source will discover what the best audio and video resolutions need to be outputted.

While the objective of EDID is to make connecting a digital display to a source a simple plug and play procedure issues do arise when multiple displays or video matrix switching is introduced because of the increased number of variables.

By pre-determining the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time need for EDID hand shaking thus making switching quicker and more reliable.

Conﬁguration of Matrix EDID settings can be achieved in one of the following ways:-

1 Using the EDID dip-switches located on the rear of the Matrix 2 Using the Supplied Matrix IR Remote Control 3 Using the web browser interface

Remote Control Description

OUTPUT AND INPUT SELECTION

A Selects the zone OUTPUT (1 - 4) you wish to

change the source on

B Selects the source INPUT (1 - 4) you wish to

change on the selected zone

EXAMPLE: To switch source 2 to zone 4 you would

press Ouput 4 (A) followed by pressing Input 2 (B ).

ALL button: The all button selects all the inputs or

outputs in its corresponding box. Example: (The “All” button in the Output box selects all the zones so all zones will change to what source input is selected next)

PTP: This button will align all zone outputs with the like

numbered source inputs. Example: Input 1 to output 1, input 2 to output 2, etc

NOTE: BUT TON PRESS SEQUENCE MUST BE FINISHED IN 5 SECONDS, OTHERWISE THE OPERATION IS DISCARDED

EDID SET UP

The matrix provides a comprehensive range of EDID settings. Below are three examples of how to deploy the desired EDID setting when using the supplied remote.

A. Fix EDID to an Input or ALL inputs: Press the

desired video resolution button (1080I / 1080P / 3D / 4K), then select the desired audio format (2.0CH / 5.1CH / 7.1CH), then select the source input you want this EDID information allocated to by pressing the INPUT 1 – 4 or the ALL button

B. Copy EDID of Output-X to an Input or ALL: Press

the COPY button then select the OUTPUT you wish to copy the EDID information from, then select the source input you want to copy this EDID to by selecting the INPUT 1-4 or the ALL button.

C. User deﬁned EDID to an Input or ALL inputs:

Press USER1 / USER2 button then select the source you wish to assign this EDID to by selecting INPUT 1-4 or the ALL button

Understanding the HDBaseT status lights

Xantech HDBaseT solutions include LED indicators to show connectivity and help diagnose possible problems.

Xante ch X T-HDBT-M X44-4K

• The Yellow HDBaseT status link light will be off when the zone output has been turned off or there is a problem with the speciﬁc Matrix output.

• The Yellow HDBaseT status link light will blink when the zone output is on and working.

• The Green HDBaseT link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Matrix and HDBaseT Receiver.

• The Green HDBaseT link light will be lit when a there is an active HDBaseT Receiver connected to the Matrix.

• The Green HDBaseT link light will be off when a there is no connection with a HDBaseT receiver.

Xantech XT-HDBT-EX70-4K-RX

• The HDMI link light will be off when there is no connection with a display.

• The HDMI link light will be on when there is an active connection with a display.

• The HDBaseT link light will be off when there is no CAT cable/active HDBaseT connection on the RJ45 HDBaseT input.

• The HDBaseT link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Matrix and HDBaseT receiver.

Terminating HDBaseT CAT cable

It is important that the interconnecting CAT cable between the ELAN HDBaseT products is terminated using the correct RJ45 pin conﬁguration. The link CAT cable MUST be a ‘straight’ (pin-to-pin) CAT cable and it is advised that this is wired to the T568B wiring standard as this format is less prone to EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference).

When installing CAT cables it is advised that you use the best possible CAT cable quality possible. HDMI distribution products will only work if used with CAT5e standard cable or above. ELAN recommends using a CAT6 cable for your installations, especially when running over longer distances, in areas of high EMI, or with 4K signal distribution. It is advised that using any method of patch panel, wall plate or join in the CAT cable is avoided as these will result in HDBaseT signal degradation. ELAN also recommend using the best quality RJ45 connectors possible.
