Leaf LTHDMI88 / LTHDMI88E manual 

 

Page  10  Of  16 

 

All IR ports support direct connection and drive of 5 volt, 3 wire IR detectors (e.g. Leaf 
hammerhead ) to 2 wire IR blasters (e.g. Leaf LB41). The IR ports on the LTHDMI88 / 
LTHDMI88E can also be configured (DIP Switches 1 and 2)  to accept so called 

“5 Volt 

Ti

p Ring Sleeve” direct drive IR signals from external control systems. (See table 2 for 

DIP switch configuration details.)  

3.9  RJ45 type Through RS232 ports 

The  Remote  RS232  connectors  are  used  for  routing  the  associated  signals  between 
the  LTHDMI88/E  and  LTB1  /  LTB1E  breakouts.  Again,  these  connections  are  treated 
as through connections in a similar fashion to the IR routing with the exception that the 
connections are bi-directional, full duplex. 

3.10  HDMI Input ports 

These  standard  HDMI  input  ports  are  for  the  purpose  of  connecting  HDMI  sources. 
They are labelled 1 to 8 reflecting the front panel LEDs from left to right.  

All Leaf True systems accord with the  HDMI  1.4 specification and  includes support of 
3D formats.  

4  FEATURES 

4.1   EDID Management 

The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) of all sinks (TVs, Display Panels, etc) 
attached  to  a  zone  are  merged  and  presented  to  the  source.  This  ensures  that  the 
source outputs the correct audio and video format to all sinks . 

When  a  sink  is  switched  to  a  source  the  LTHDMI88  remembers  its  EDID.  After  a 
calibration, or each time new sinks are switched, the combination or merge of this sink 
EDID  and  previously  switched  sink  EDIDs  is  calculated  and  stored  for  use  thereafter 
until power off or recalibration. 

This guarantees true repeater functionality while minimising interruption to active TVs 
or Display panels when selecting sources. 

4.2  Calibration 

This process effectively gathers all of the information from the source and sink devices 
(EDID and HDCP keys data) and pre-calculates the EDID merging and HDCP key list. 
This results in faster switching times and isolates the effect on one zone from another 
zone when new connections are routed. 

Other manufacturer’s systems may lose video 

and  or  audio  for  some  seconds  under  similar  circumstances.  Refer  to  the  Calibration 
description in the Operation section for more detail.
