CONNECTION & OPERA
TION
Adjustment of the IR emitter position after installation
may be required to achieve the best results as moving
to different areas of the source fascia can improve IR
performance.
Plug the 3.5mm jack of the IR emitter into the
corresponding number IR TX port on the rear panel of the
MATRIX.
NOTE
HDMI output supports up to 1080p only. 4K
source cannot be duplicated. EXP-SCL-DAC-4K
scaler is required to scale up the 1080p signal for
connection to a local 4K screen
For two-way IR control of display from source
location:
i. Connect a WyreStorm IR link cable (CAB-IR-LINK)
between the IR RX port on the matrix output modules to a
control system.
or
ii. Connect 3.5mm jack of the IR receiver into the
corresponding IR RX port on matrix output cards,
ensuring the IR receiver eye is placed in clear view to
receive an IR signal from the handset to be used to
control.
Connect a good quality, well-terminated Cat 5e/6/7
cable with an RJ45 connector wired to 568B standard
at both ends from the HDBaseT Output port of matrix
transmission cards the UTP IN of the RX-70-4K display
receiver. *
* Please be mindful of cable type, transmission
range and 4K or HD support as stated in
Specification (Section 5 of this manual)
NOTE
Although all WyreStorm products are tested
using Cat5e as standard, we suggest using Cat6 as
the preferred cable due to its improved transmission
capabilities.
Ensure both RJ45 connectors are pushed securely
into each port and supported by the connector strain relief
clip to prevent loosening.
If using a WyreStorm extender set, connect the
transmitter device to the matrix via the HDMI port and
connect to the RX-70-4K receiver via Cat5e/6/7.
NOTE
No power supply is required to the RX-70-4K
if connected from the MX-0808-PP-POH-4K matrix
or other PoH-enabled transmission device.
The 12v power input on the display receiver is
optional, and should be used only if there is
insufficient power from the transmission device.
Power is passed along the Cat5e/6/7 cable so
the quality of termination, cable and condition are
essential for successful delivery of video, audio,
control and power to receivers.
Poor quality terminations lead to intermittent
performance and longer install times.
PoH functionality will not be possible if using a non-
PoH enabled Receiver.
Sudden movement of the matrix and receivers could
lead to loss of picture and sound if connections
become loose or strained, resulting in unnecessary
service call-backs. We strongly recommend using
the mounting brackets supplied to secure devices.
Connect HDMI OUT of the RX-70-4K to the HDMI IN
of the display device.
Plug the 3.5mm jack of the IR receiver into the IR RX
port of the display receiver.
Place the IR receiver discretely on the front of the display
with care taken to achieve a clear line of sight with the
remote control to be used.
For two-way IR controlling the display from the matrix
end: Plug the 3.5mm jack of the IR emitter into the IR TX
port on the display receiver, ensuring the emitter is placed
directly over the infrared receiving sensor of the display
using the adhesive backing.
Again, adjustment of receiver and emitter position may be
needed to achieve the best IR signal distribution.
Switch on the power to your input sources, displays,
and any display receivers used.
All receivers must be connected to the matrix
via UTP cable before matrix is powered on.
As power forms part of the HDBaseT carrier
signal, if a transmission link can not be established
between matrix and display receiver, it is unlikely
the receiver will be able to draw power.
Should such problems be experienced between
transmission and receiving device, investigate the
root cause of the issue by following the checklist in
the Troubleshooting section of this guide.
Finally, switch on the matrix at the rear and your
WyreStorm system should now be fully connected and
ready for use.
If IR transmitters and receivers are correctly placed
discrete control of both sources and displays will be
possible from either location.
