Bidirectional Pass-through Data Lines
The direction of the video extension is fixed
from TX towards RX but the pass-through data
lines are bidirectional*. It means the RS-232,
IR, Ethernet source and sink devices can be
connected either to the TX or to the RX and the
signal is transmitted to the other extender.
* In fact IR transmission is uni-directional but
the extender has two IR channels with different
directions.
RS-232
Third party devices with standard RS-232 port are supported as the extenders work in „pass-
through” mode. TX and RX provide 3-pole Phoenix connector. The RS-232 options – the baud
rate and the parity bits are set on the third party devices and it can be anything. The extenders
support any kind of serial settings.
Please find the RS-232 device type in its user guide; the extenders work as DCE devices.
Ethernet
The Ethernet port on the RX or on TX can be connected to a LAN hub, switch or router with a
LAN cable. The other side behaves as an Ethernet uplink port. The extenders support 10/100
Mbps data transfer rate. The Ethernet port has auto crossover function. It is able to recognize
and handle both cable types: patch and cross TP cables.
Infrared (IR)
One emitter and one detector is enough for remote controlling one IR sink device. If there
is an IR sink device to be controlled next to the TX and the other one is next to the RX, two
emitter-detector pairs are needed. The IR emitter and the detector have standard 3.5 mm TRS
(jack) connectors. The emitter’s plug has two poles (mono) and the detector’s plug has three
poles (stereo).
The emitter and detector pair is not supplied with the product, it can be ordered from
Lightware separately.

TPS Link Modes
The TPS working mode between the transmitter and the receiver parties is determined by
the mode set in them. Both parties influence on the setting which determines the final TPS
transmission mode. The following TPS modes are defined:
Long reach (LR):
Longer CATx cable length, less bandwidth (limited resolution). The
LPPF mode is not available in LR TPS link mode.
HDBaseT
TM
(HDBT):
more bandwidth (higher resolutions), shorter CATx cable length. If
no video present, the units change to LPPF mode automatically.
Low Power Partial Functionality (LPPF):
Only Ethernet, RS-232 and IR are extended.
Toggling between TPS link modes
The toggle switch on the extenders can
be used to toggle between the LR and
Auto TPS modes. If both units have Auto
state and there is valid video signal on
the transmitter the common mode will
be HDBT. If the video signal disappears
devices go into LPPF mode.
TPS mode between an extender and a
port of a matrix board
If an extender and a TPS matrix board are paired the board forces the extender to use the
settings of the matrix. The extender’s TPS mode switch has no effect.
Always use the Auto mode with third-party devices!

This example shows how to mount the FP-HDMI-TPS-RX97-GB3
receiver easily into an industrial standard box (GB3 mounting box is not
supplied with the product, it can be purchased separately).
1
Release and remove the fixing screws of the rear frames from the
extender.
2
Insert the extender into the GB3 P3 frame.
3
Put back the rear frame on the extender and position it to get the
holes aligned.

Mounting of FP-HDMI-TPS-RX97-Legrand variant is really similar to this method.
Mounting of another variants of WP-HDMI-TPS-RX97 series are really similar to this method.
Thanks to the design of Lightware devices, WP-HDMI-TPS-RX97-US receiver can
be mounted easily into an industrial standard box as the figures show below. B225R
switch/outlet box is not supplied with the product, it can be purchased separately.
1
Release and remove the fixing screws from the front side of the extender.
2
Insert the extender into the B225R outlet box and position it to get the holes aligned.
3
Fasten the front side of the extender to the B225R outlet box by fitting all
the screws.
Remove the center barrier.
Left and right barriers can
be kept in the floorbox.

Ventilation
To ensure the correct ventilation and avoid overheating
mount the extender into an industrial standard switch/outlet
box. Let enough free space in front of the appliance and
keep the ventilation holes free.
