INSTALLATION
Please visit the RTI dealer portal (www.rticorp.com/dealer) for additional instructions and specifications.
RACK MOUNTING
1. Remove Feet.
2. Install Rack Mount Brackets using supplied screws.
3. Mount in rack.
CONNECTIONS
1. Connect HDMI/VGA/DP/HDBaseT source devices to input ports (as needed).
2. Connect a display device such as a TV or projector to the HDMI OUT port.
3. Connect the audio source devices to the audio inputs (as needed).
4. Connect the analog audio outputs or TOSLINK optical audio output to an audio system such as a receiver or amplifier (See below for details).
5. Connect the serial output of a control system to the RS-232 port (as needed).
6. Connect the ETHERNET port to Ethernet network for access to web interface and IP control via a two-way driver (available via rticorp.com/dealer).
7. Connect power cable to the VMS-741 and power the unit on.
AUDIO INPUT/OUTPUT
To select between the HDMI/DP/HDBaseT audio inputs or the analog inputs, access the web interface General tab (instructions below) and set the Audio Input Configuration to
“Auto” for the embedded HDMI/DP/HDBaseT audio, or “External” for the 3.5mm Stereo analog inputs.
NOTE: If the analog audio outputs are used, the audio format for the selected input must be either analog stereo or uncompressed PCM audio with up to 8 channels (7.1).
The VMS-741 has three audio output types:
•
Embedded, HDMI
•
Digital Optical, TOSLINK
•
7.1 Channel Analog, 4 x 3.5mm Stereo (Pinout and audio format chart below)
RS-232 CONTROL
An RTI control system driver is available for the VMS-741 via the rticorp.com driver store. Follow the instructions that come packaged with the driver.
•
Connect to the VMS-741 to a control system using a straight-through serial cable with a DB9 connector.
•
Default: baud rate: 9600; data bits: 8; stop bits: 1; parity: none
ETHERNET/IP CONTROL
An RTI control system driver is available for the VMS-741 via the rticorp.com driver store. Follow the instructions that come packaged with the driver.
•
The VMS-741 is set to use DHCP by default and the network router must have DHCP enabled. Wire the VMS-741 to the Ethernet network using Cat cable with the RJ-45
termination and power the unit on. The network router will assign an IP address to the unit automatically and allow it to join the network.
•
The IP address will be shown on the video display when the VMS-741 is powered on and when a video input is selected that does not have a source connected to it.
WEB INTERFACE
The VMS-741 web interface is used for configuring settings (see below). To access the web interface, first determine the IP address that was assigned to the VMS-741 (see
above) and enter it into the search bar of a standard web browser (ex 10.10.0.100).
Web Interface Settings:
•
General:
Video input and window layout selection, Audio configuration, Button Configuration.
•
Advanced:
Audio settings, RS-232 Baudrate, Audio and video OSD, Analog settings.
•
EDID:
EDID - Copy (Ports 1-7), EDID Upload and Download
•
Network:
DHCP, IP settings, Socket settings, Reset network settings to factory default.
