Operation of the handset is the same regardless of
location – locally (source/IR emitter) or remotely (display/
IR receiver).
Simply toggle through the input sources connected to the
matrix by either pressing the left/right arrow buttons or
buttons numbered 1 – 4 for each output.
Should local control of the Matrix via the front panel IR
sensor be an issue, for example if the sensor is obstructed
or the unit is installed in a closed area out of infrared line
of sight, the IR receiver included can be inserted into the
IR EXT port at the rear to extend the IR sensor range and
enable local control of the matrix. Make sure the receiver
itself is located with a clear line of
sight to the remote handset controlling it.
IR Call-back of Matrix and Source Devices
The MX-0404-POH-KIT is not only a switcher and
extender of multiple HDMI signals to multiple HDMI
receivers located remotely, it also passes IR control
signals through the IR call-back system to the matrix
and HDMI sources for full, independent control of all
connected inputs from output locations.
The IR call-back function can be turned on and off as
required. See below
Setting: To enable IR call-back press and hold OUTPUT
2 and OUTPUT 4 together for 3 seconds until the LED
lights FLASH on OUTPUT 1 and OUTPUT 2. Call-back
is now activated and control of the Matrix is now possible
from remote locations.
To disable the call-back function, repeat the process until
the LED lights flash again.
Two-way IR Call-back Between Matrix, Sources and
Displays from Multiple Locations
A key feature on our HDBaseT Matrix range is discrete
IR control of the matrix, sources and displays from any
location – so inputs at the matrix end can be controlled
at a display location and displays can be controlled at the
matrix location.
This is accomplished by placing a series of IR emitters
on devices to control and IR receivers at all locations you
wish to control from to enable the IR signal to travel both
ways via the single Cat5e/6 cable.
