IR TX/RX Guidelines
• Using WyreStorm infrared emitters and receivers is the best way to ensure that most IR coding formats are transmitted and received by the NetworkHD
system. Other 3rd party emitters and receivers can be used; however, these devices must operate in the same manner as the WyreStorm devices.
• Due to differences in IR across 3rd party control systems their IR ports should never be connected directly to a NetworkHD system as an incompatibility may
exist. WyreStorm offers a cable that compensates for voltage differences as well adjusts for differences in the pins used within the port. Refer to the
product page for more information.
IR TX Port Pinout
Connection for IR TX (transmit) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) mono plug.
Tip:
Anode
Sleeve: Cathode (IR Signal)
IR RX Port Pinout
Connection for IR RX (receive) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) stereo jack that outputs
+5V DC to power the included IR receiver.
Tip:
Ring:
IR Signal
+5V DC
Sleeve: Ground (GND)
RS-232 Wiring
The NetworkHD devices use a 3-pin or a 4-pin phoenix with no hardware flow control. Most control systems and computers are DTE where pin 2 is RX, this can
vary from device to device. Refer to the documentation for the connected device for pin functionally to ensure that the correct connections can be made.
Devices that use a 3-pin connection include:
NHD-110-TX
NHD-110-RX
NHD-250-RX
NHD-400-DNT-TX
Devices that use a 3.5mm connection include:
NHD-400-TX
NHD-400-RX v2
NHD-400-DNT-TX
NHD-600-TX
NHD-600-RX
Devices that use a 3-pin connection include:
NHD-110-TX
NHD-110-RX
NHD-250-RX
Devices that use a 5-pin connection include:
NHD-400-RX v3
Devices that use a 4-pin connection include:
NHD-400-E-RX
NHD-400-RX
NHD-600-TX
NHD-600-RX
Audio Wiring
NetworkHD uses three different audio outputs. A 3.5mm (1/8in) TRS Stereo Jack audio connection, a 3-pin phoenix unbalanced audio connection and a 5-pin
phoenix balanced audio connection.

Setup and Configuration
IMPORTANT! Installation Guidelines
• Do not connect the power supply until all NetworkHD devices are connected to the network switch.
• NetworkHD Series uses DHCP to assign IP addresses by default. In the absence of a DHCP server an AutoIP address will be assigned in the subnet
169.254.0.0/16. Ensure the PC being used for configuration obtains an IP via DHCP or is set to an address in the AutoIP range prior to starting the
configuration process.
• In order to configure the NetworkHD encoders and decoders, the AV port on the NHD-000-CTL MUST be connected to the same LAN/VLAN and Subnet as the
NetworkHD encoders and decoders.
• In order for the devices in the system to be controlled via a 3rd party controller on a different VLAN, the CONTROL port MUST be connected to the same LAN/
VLAN and Subnet as the control system.
• The NHD-000-CTL’s two Ethernet ports are designed to be used in different Networks or VLANs. When using a single Network or VLAN for example when
using NetworkHD Touch – do not connect both ports – only use the AV port of the CTL.
