Connect HDMI sources (such as HD-DVD, Blu-ray,
games console, AppleTV, satellite/cable etc.) to HDMI
inputs 1 – 4 of the MATRIX.
Attention
Do Not Hotplug! - Please insert and
extract cables carefully with the power SWITCHED
OFF. Connecting and disconnecting while the unit is
powered can result in damage to circuitry.
Attach the IR emitter directly over the infrared
receiving sensor of the input source using the adhesive
backing. You may need to adjust the position of the
emitter after installation to achieve the best results.
Sometimes moving the sensor to different areas of the
source can improve IR performance.
Plug the 3.5mm jack of the IR emitter into your
chosen number IR TX port on the rear panel of the
MATRIX.
For two-way IR control of the display from the matrix or
connection to a control system, connect an IR Link cable
to the control system or plug an IR RX receiver cable into
the corresponding IR RX port on the rear panel of the
MATRIX, ensuring the receiver is placed in clear view to
receive an IR signal.
NOTE
Make sure the IR jacks are in the same number
ports.
HINT
Locate the infrared sensor on devices by
shining a flashlight onto the display panel of sources
and look for a small sensor.
Connect a good quality, well terminated Cat5e/6
cable with an RJ45 connector wired to 568B standard
at both ends from the UTP Output port of the MATRIX to
the UTP In of the display receiver. If cascading an output,
connect the UTP to the UTP IN of the transmission
device.
Ensure both RJ45 connectors are pushed securely into
each port and supported by the connector strain relief
clip to prevent them from becoming loose. The quality
of termination for your RJ45 is essential. Poor quality
terminations lead to intermittent performance and longer
install times.
HINT
Although all WyreStorm products are tested
using Cat5e as standard, we suggest using Cat6 as
the preferred cable due to its improved distribution
capabilities.
