8-Port HDMI Extender with Power, IR, and RS-232
12
Figure 19 –HDBaseT status indicators on the front panel
Link
Solid on means the UHBX-8X Sender & remote Receiver are communicating
Blinking means they are communicating in Low-Power (sleep) mode
Video
Solid on means Video is being sent to the display
L.R.
Solid on means the link is operating in Long Reach mode
PoH
Solid on means PoH handshake successful and power is sent to receiver
If all the LED’s on the front panel are blinking together, then the unit has
detected an over temperature condition and is performing a partial shutdown
to prevent damage to the integrated circuits. This condition is reversible and
when the temperature decreases to acceptable levels the extender begins to
function normally again. If over temperature condition occurs frequently, then
the user must allow better cooling and air flow around the box. The enclosure
has a temperature controlled fan on the left side that draws in fresh air and
exhausts the right side; make sure the sides of the unit are not blocking the
flow of air.
If for a particular channel the Link, Video, and L.R. LEDs are blinking
together, there has been a failure on the corresponding transmitter module or it
is missing. Contact Support.
5.0 Control Commands (RS232 and IP)
The extender can be controlled using simple ASCII commands either through
the RS232 or the Ethernet (IP) ports using Telnet protocol.
Use a DB9 Male-to-Female cable shipped with the extender to connect it to
the computer or external control device. If using a PC open a serial terminal
program (HyperTerminal, Realterm, TeraTerm, Putty, etc) with the following
settings:
19200 Baud, 8 bits, No Parity, 1 Stop-bit, and No flow control.
All serial commands received will be followed by a response. Baud Rate and
Parity setting commands (XBn and XPn) are global and affect all the outputs.
Command:
XC,n <cr> Stands for Serial Connect
Connect serial interface (UART) to an output (n). If n is not specified, then it
reports which output the controller is connected to.n is in the range of 1 to 8
Response:
XC,n <cr>
This indicates that the command completed successfully
