Instruction Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver
HDMI TX Rear View (product discontinued)
Note:
The Multi-Format TX and HDMI TX each have a DIP switch on the bottom (see page 25).
The following components are located on the rear of the Multi-Format TX and HDMI TX Modules (from left to
right):
Video In Connector (Multi-Format TX only)
The Video In connector on the Multi-Format TX is an HD-15 connector for analog video (composite, Y/c,
Y/Pb/Pr, RGB, RGBHV, or RGBS). Pinouts for analog video are on page 124.
Note:
When an analog video source cable is plugged into the Multi-Format TX, the Video LEDs on the front
and on the Receiver turn green to show that video is present through the system. In addition, one of the
Analog Video LEDs on the front of the Multi-Format TX and the HDMI RX turns green to show the type of
video that is present through the system.
HDMI In Connector
The HDMI In connector is for digital video and embedded digital audio. When more than one audio signal is
present and the default “auto” mode is enabled, HDMI embedded audio takes precedence over S/PDIF and analog
audio.
When a NetLinx Central Controller is connected, an audio format SEND_COMMAND is available (the
Transmitter
must
be set for network connectivity via #3 Toggle) to select the desired audio source (see page 87).
The HDMI connector has a center screw for locking capability. The HDMI connector also supports a DVI-D
signal with the use of a DVI-to-HDMI cable adapter.
Note:
When a digital video source cable is plugged into the HDMI connector, the Video LEDs on the front of
the Multi-Format TX or HDMI TX and Receiver turn green to show that video is present through the system.
Stereo Audio In Jack
The Stereo Audio In jack is a 3.5 mm stereo jack. By default, the stereo audio jack will be third in priority behind
the embedded audio on the HDMI input and digital audio on the RCA connector.
When a NetLinx Central Controller is connected, an audio format SEND_COMMAND is available (the
Transmitter
must
be set for network connectivity via #3 Toggle) to select the desired audio source (see page 87).
Digital Audio In Jack
The Digital Audio In jack is an RCA jack for an S/PDIF audio signal. When more than one audio signal is present
and the default “auto” mode is enabled, HDMI embedded audio takes precedence over S/PDIF, which takes
precedence over analog audio.
When a NetLinx Central Controller is connected, an audio format SEND_COMMAND is available (the
Transmitter
must
be set for network connectivity via #3 Toggle) to select the desired audio source (see page 87).
