HC 403 EU, HC 403 MK • Setup Guide
HC 404 and HC 403 Systems
The Extron HC 403 EU and HC 403 MK systems are AV presentation solutions. They incorporate a built-in control processor for
display control via HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), RS-232, IR, or Ethernet.
Each system is a dedicated transmitter-receiver pair that is factory-optimized to work together as if it were a single unit.
Together each transmitter-receiver system extends video, audio, and control signals up to 230 feet (70 m) over a single CAT
x
cable.
Each system offers auto-input switching modes, one of which automatically selects sources based on input signals and also
allows manual source selection (for the receiver input) via a button. Auto-switching modes can be enabled or disabled via Extron
Product Configuration Software. The “last connected” auto-switching mode is enabled by default.
Both systems feature three AV inputs and one output. Each system consists of a two-input switching transmitter (HCT 102 EU or
the HCT 102 MK) and a scaling receiver (HCR 102) that has one HDMI input and one connection from the transmitter.
•
The HCT 102 EU transmitter has an EU-style faceplate and fits most standard two-gang European wall boxes.
•
The HCT 102 MK transmitter has an MK-style faceplate and fits most standard two-gang MK-type wall boxes.
•
The HCR 102 receiver is wall, furniture, or rack mountable.
The EU and MK transmitter models are identical except for the EU- or MK-specific wallplates and mounting hardware. Features,
connectors, and operation are the same for both models.

Transmitters
Both transmitters are identical except for the faceplate and mounting options.
Each transmitter switches between one analog video and one digital (HDMI) video input. It
does not include input selection buttons or input LED indicators. For either transmitter, if
the selected input is HDMI, the extended video signal can be HDCP-compliant.
Receiver
The HCR 102 receiver incorporates a high performance, HDCP compliant scaler that
scales video to provide a consistent output resolution to a display. It accepts video with
resolutions from 480i up to 1920x1200, 1080p, and 2K, and performs upscaling and
downscaling with multiple output rates up to 1920x1200, including HDTV 1080p/60 and
2K. The receiver includes an on-screen display, test patterns, and EDID Minder

This setup guide provides instructions for an experienced installer to install the HCT 102 EU or HCT 102 MK and the HCR 102.
The guide provides information needed to configure the most essential settings for the system and the receiver. It also describes
basic operations using front panel controls and the on-screen display (OSD) menu system. Full details are available in the
