7.8. IR Pass-Through Installation and Setup
To utilize IR pass-through between a display location and the matrix switcher, install a B-500-RX-230-IR at the display
and use HDBaseT for routing the signal. The matrix switcher and the matrix receiver are equipped with ports to allow
commands to be sent to the display or from the display area. This section details the pinouts and correct use of the IR
pass-through ports.
7.8.1. Matrix Switcher IR Connections
The ports indicated in the diagram are described in detail below. Guides for standard applications are included on the
following pages for reference during setup.
7.8.2. Matrix Switcher IR Port Configuration
All IR connection ports on the B-500-MTRX-230-4X4 are 3.5mm mono mini and use this pinout configuration. Consult
with the manufacturer of any attached IR equipment to confirm their pinout matches before use.

1. IR Output to Source 1 through 4
The IR output from each connected B-500-RX-230-IR is transmitted to the IR OUTPUT TO SOURCE ports.
Commands can be routed to the source selected or to the like-numbered port.
2. IR Input to Room 1 through 4
Use 3.5mm mini-mono cables to connect IR flasher outputs on a control system to these ports to send commands
to displays or equipment located at the B-500-RX-230-IR matrix receiver location. The number corresponds to the
output zone number, so IR Input to Room port 1 will send signals to HDBaseT output 1.
3. System All IR Out
This port repeats any command sent from the IR Receiver ports on B-500-RX-230-IR Matrix Receivers connected
to any HDBaseT output.
4. System IR In
3.5mm mono mini IR input port for matrix switch IR control.
