Understanding RS232 Connection & Signals RS232 REMOTE CONTROL RS232C, EIA RS232, or simply RS232, refers to the same standard defined by the Electronic Industries Association in 1969 for serial communication. DTE and DCE DTE stands for Data Terminal Equipment. A computer or control system is DTE and connects to Data Communication Equipment, or DCE such as an AMP, matrix or modem. DTE equipment typically feature a Male Connector, while DCE contain a Female Connector, although that is not always true - a simple way to confirm is to measure Pin 3 and Pin 5 of a DB-9 Connector with a Volt Meter, if a voltage of -3V to -15V is achieved, the device is DTE. If the voltage is on Pin 2, then the device is DCE. Note: The result for a DB-25 Connector is reversed (Please refer to DB-9 to DB-25 conversion table) DB-9 to DB-25 Conversion RS232 Pin outs (DB-9) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A male DB-9 connector viewed from the front.

A crossover (null-modem) cable can be used to connect two DTE directly, without a modem in between to cross transmit and receive data signals between the two sides. There are numerous variations on how control signals are wired: 6 Technical Support: support@wyrestorm.com US: +1 866 677 0053 EU: +44 (0) 1793 230 343 Mark (1) space (0) LSB start Crossover (Null-Modern) (DB-9 (DTE) (DCE) 1 DCD ------- DCD 1 2 RxD ------- TxD 3 3 TxD ------- RxD 2 4 DTR ------- DSR 6 5 GND ------- GND 5 6 DSR ------- DTR 4 7 RTS ------- CTS 8 8 CTS ------- RTS 7 9 RI RI 9 MSB 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 stop RS232 REMOTE CONTROL 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Straight-through (DB-9 (DTE) (DCE) DCD ------- DCD 1 RxD ------- TxD 2 TxD ------- RxD 3 DTR ------- DSR 4 GND ------- GND 5 DSR ------- DTR 6 RTS ------- CTS 7 CTS ------- RTS 8 RI ------- RI 9 -12v +12v RS232 Logic Waveform (8N1) The graphic above illustrates a typical RS232 logic waveform (Data format: 1 Start bit, 8 Data bits, No Parity, 1 Stop bit). The data transmission starts with a Start bit, followed by the data bits (LSB sent first and MSB sent last), and ends with a “Stop” bit. The voltage of Logic “1” (Mark) is between -3VDC to -15VDC, while the Logic “0” (Space) is between +3VDC to +15VDC. RS232 connects the Ground of 2 different devices together, which is the so-called “Unbalanced” connection. An unbalanced connection is more susceptible to noise, and has a distance limitation of 15m/49ft. ii. COM CTL Control Interface After fully connecting all inputs and outputs to the matrix and installing the software, on opening the program the control window will display information from the matrix, such as messages received from the switch such as input/ output details, firmware version and control commands/HEX codes that allow the system to be controlled remotely, as well as buttons used to navigate the screen.

Pressing the button again will disconnect the Com port and the CONNECT state will show red. 11. Input/Output switch - Switches connected inputs per output. Operation as with remote control handset – select the chosen input to be displayed on each output by either clicking the left/right arrow buttons to scroll through inputs numerically, or pressing the input number 1-4. 8 Technical Support: support@wyrestorm.com US: +1 866 677 0053 EU: +44 (0) 1793 230 343 The command format is as follows: cir + ‘_’ + code + ‘enter’ “cir” is the keyword, ‘_’ is Space, “Code” is the Control code , ‘enter’ is enter . For example: “cir 41enter”(hex: 63 69 72 20 34 31 0D 0A). When the mx0404-3XX receives this command, it will change output 1 source to the next input port. “cir 09 enter”(hex: 63 69 72 20 30 39 0D 0A) To select source 1 on output 1. For HEX codes – see downloads section of MX-0404-STD-RS232 product page at www.wyrestorm.com 10. EDID Setting Distribution of HD signals through the matrix requires mutual communication or ‘handshake’ between source and display. If there is any disparity between the two, successful transmission becomes problematic. This matrix comes equipped with an EDID DIP switch for manual adjustment of matrix settings to encourage communication between INPUT and OUTPUT devices. If installation compatibility issues arise, check the settings on your connected devices and adjust the DIP settings as required. ATTENTION Changes to the DIP switch settings should be made with the matrix OFF, ideally with all power cables and HDMI leads and UTP cables removed to guard against electrostatic build up that may damage your system. DO NOT HOTSWAP your cables when changing DIP SETTINGS. NOTE ALL changes to the EDID DIP settings become effective 1 2 upon powering ON the matrix. After changed settings, power cycle the matrix for settings to take effect. EDID DIP Switch settings 1 (Down):ON 0 (Up): OFF EDID Auto Mix – Sets EDID compatible with all HDMI sinks selecting the same source. 1 2 3 Matrix analyses data between all connected input and output devices and prioritizes EDID of highest compatibility to ensure all sink devices can output signals from all HDMI sources. ON For example, if one display outputs 1080p stereo, but another is capable of 1080i, 5.1 audio, the most compatible EDID setting accepted by both displays would be 1080i stereo audio. Simultaneously press and hold the Output 1 Lock Key button for three seconds to activate EDID mixing. NOTE For maximum compatibility, the matrix will arrive with EDID DIP setting in the 000 position with a default internal setting of 1080p Stereo. See below to restore internal settings to factory default. 1080p Stereo using embedded EDID The matrix will use embedded 1080p video and stereo audio in this DIP setting. After setting the ON DIP switch, reconnect and turn on for EDID settings to take effect. 1 2 3 RESETTING TO FACTORY DEFAULT: As 1080p-Stereo is the default factory setting for the matrix, to reset EDID of all ports, simply set the DIP switch to the above position when the matrix is powered OFF. On powering ON, all ports will revert to 1080p stereo. Technical Support: support@wyrestorm.com US: +1 866 677 0053 EU: +44 (0) 1793 230 343 9 COM CTL CONTROL INTERFACE & EDID SETTING iii. RS232 Commands EDID SETTING 1 2 3 Current EDID copy – this setting copies EDID from the HDMI output to the input port currently selected for that output. ON Copies EDID data to the selected input port according to the matrix route status. It will copy the EDID data from the output number port. Press and hold the Selection button of the specified Output for 3 seconds when the chosen Input has been selected. The EDID of the Output will be copied to the selected Input. For example, if Input 1 is selected by Output 4, after pressing and holding the Output 4 Input Selection button on Input 1 for 3 seconds, EDID from Output 4 will be copied to Input 1. NOTE To copy EDID from an AVR with 7.1 channel audio to a specific input port such as a connected Blu-Ray? 1. Set DIP to the ‘001’ position as above 2. Connect the AVR to an output port on the Matrix - for example, Output 1 3. Power on the matrix. Select the source on the AVR - for example HDMI Input 2/Blu-Ray 4. Press and hold the Output 1 key on the Matrix for 3 seconds, the matrix will copy the EDID data from Output 1 to Input 2. 1 2 3 ON 1 2 3 ON Remaining settings no fuction (reserved for future updates) Examples for EDID setting: How to copy EDID from an AVR with 7.1 channel audio to a specific input port, such as a connected BD player? 1. Set DIP to ‘001’. 2. Connect the AVR to one of the output ports. For example, connect to output1. 3. Power on the matrix. Select the source of the AVR (for example input2) to the input port which is connected to the BD-player. 4. Press and hold the output1 key for 3 seconds, the matrix will copy the EDID data from output1 to input2. NOTE To reset the matrix default EDID setting: Disconnect all inputs and outputs. Press and hold OUTPUT 1 and lock key simultaneously for at least 3 seconds EDID four input ports will be reset to the default setting. The default EDID audio setting is stereo (compatible with TV). 1080i Stereo using embedded EDID In instances where a connected display is unable to achieve 1080p resolution (such as using older ON or cheaper devices), this DIP setting will instruct the matrix to use embedded 1080i video and stereo audio to output a signal. 1 2 3 After setting the DIP switch, power cycle for EDID settings to take effect. 1080p 5.1ch Audio using embedded EDID 1 2 3 ON When set to this DIP position the matrix will use embedded 1080p video with 5.1ch Audio. After setting the DIP switch, power cycle for EDID settings to take effect. 1080p 7.1ch Audio using embedded EDID 1 2 3 ON When set to this DIP position the matrix will use embedded 1080p video with 7.1ch Audio.

Troubleshooting Generally, the majority of HD distribution installation issues are either caused by minor connection errors, communication problems between devices, or when the transmission of high signal bandwidth is attempted using insufficient cable. Should you encounter any technical difficulties when installing and configuring the matrix, we are confident solutions can be found by working through the following troubleshooting checklist before seeking alternative technical support. No Picture or poor quality picture 1) Power – Are all sources and matrix definitely powered and firmly connected? 2) If possible, always use test equipment prior to installation and to troubleshoot any problems. 4) Cable joins? Joins in your cable run can impact on signal strength, resulting in reduced transmission that may manifest itself in poor picture quality or a complete lack of picture . 5) Signal Reduction – When using and extender set, are you using stranded patch leads as interconnects between patch panels or wall outlets? Such use reduces signal strength – we recommend solid core straight through connections to be used wherever possible. 6) Resolution – If you reduce the resolution of the source, do you get a picture? If so, this suggests a discrepancy between source and display resolution or a bandwidth capacity issue with your cable. Check that your inputs and outputs share the same resolution and that the signal is being successfully transmitted along your cable run. 7) Correct connection – It may seem obvious but double check all UTP, HDMI, power and IR cables are connected to the correct ports. Note: Even a fraction off can be the difference between a perfect picture and a blank screen. Double check all connections are firmly made in the correct ports. 9) Cable wired to 568B standard? Is your cable wired and terminated correctly and are those terminations connected to the correct ports? Test Monitor Part Number TTMONITOR Signal Generator Part Number TTSIgnal 3) Distance – Is your cable too long for the signal to be transmitted effectively? Note: If you are approaching the limits of the transmission capabilities, you will need to use a WyreStorm Extender set for the signal to transmit effectively. 12 10) Electrical interference – HDBaseT is less susceptible to interference compared to regular transmissions but the location of cables and devices should be considered - could any form of interference be generated? If so, attempt to remove the source of electrical interference or move the cable run to decrease the effects of the interference. 11) Do you get a picture if you connect the source directly to the display? If not then the problem could lie with the input or output device rather than the means of distribution i.e. the cable or matrix itself. 12) HDMI lead condition and quality – HDMI cables and connectors are delicate and can be damaged much easier than component or coax cable. Furthermore, lead quality varies dramatically, particularly in lower price brackets. Swap your HDMI leads and check operation – damage to or quality of your leads could be the problem. If in doubt, swap them over. Always take care inserting and extracting your HDMI from matrix ports so as not to damage the connectors or ports. Technical Support: support@wyrestorm.com US: +1 866 677 0053 EU: +44 (0) 1793 230 343 14) Blu-ray: Deep Colour – make sure Deep Colour is turned on in your Blu-ray settings and displays. 15) Blu-ray: Resolution – if a reduction of resolution to 720/1080i produces an image, cable issues such as interference, patch panels, wall outlets, stranded cable use or excessive cable length are likely restricting transmission of a full 1080p signal. 16) Blu-ray: 3D – is the equipment used 3D enabled/ compatible? Is a 3D disc being played in a 3D enabled Bluray player or through a compatible amplifier? 17) Colour distortion – a pink or green screen indicates an incompatibility between colour spacing formats – the commonly used RGB or YUV used by older displays. Some sources allow switching between RGB and YUV which may solve any colour problems. If not, try changing the HDMI cable between the source and the matrix to rule out defective cabling. Audio is transmitted within the video signal – there is no separate audio track – so generally a problem with sound will be accompanied by a problem with picture. However, if technical issues with audio are experienced, the cause is typically communication between sources, displays and/or AV receiver settings. No sound or poor quality audio 1) If using an AV receiver, check your source input assignment – do you have specific speaker sets or zones enabled? Some AV receivers allow individual speaker selections assigned to specific zones in the set up so check the speakers used are fully connected to the amplifier and correctly assigned within the system set up. Note: If you experience problems when an AV receiver is used, the cause is usually the settings of the AVR itself. Refer to the AVR manufacturer’s guidelines on the correct settings to use for your requirements. 2) Consistency of audio output between devices – Is there any discrepancy between the audio output of the source, the audio or zonal settings of the AV receiver and the speaker configuration used needed for successful audio replication? If you are outputting 7.1, make sure all devices connected are also outputting 7.1 Note: Occasionally with some sources, the device settings allow the specification of audio output through a TV or an HDMI port.
