SW-0501-HDBT HDBaseT Presentation Switcher/Scaler Installation Guide | 160211-1512
Control and LAN Connections
While the SW-0501-HDBT may be controlled using the front panel buttons, in most installations this may not be possible due to the
switcher being hidden in a rack or cabinet. Control of the switcher in these installations is via either a contact closure switching device or
RS-232.
Additional control connections are available to control display devices that are connected to the switcher either locally via HDMI or
remotely via HDBaseT.
Local Area Network (LAN) Connection
In order to access the built-in Web UI or send/receive Ethernet signals over HDBaseT, the switcher must be connected to a LAN. There
are 2 LAN ports each specific to a function on the switcher.
1. Connect the LAN port to an Ethernet router or switch using a high quality Ethernet cable to send/receive Ethernet signals to/from
connected HDBaseT transmitters and/or receivers.
Refer to the Local Area Network (LAN) Wiring section for termination pinouts.
I/O Switching Devices
Contact closure hard button switching devices like those found in presentation podiums may be used to control the switcher. The
switcher even has connections for LEDs to indicate the currently selected source.
1. Connect the Contact In port on the switcher to the buttons on the I/O control device using a cable terminated per the Remote I/O
Control Device Wiring section.
2. Connect the LED Out port on the switcher to the LEDs on the I/O control device using a cable terminated per the Remote I/O
Control Device Wiring section.
RS-232 Control of Switcher and Connected Devices
There are three RS-232 ports on the SW-0501-HDBT that have various functions and wiring options.
Refer to the RS-232 Wiring section for connection details.
IR Control of Remote and Local Device via HDBaseT
The HDBaseT port supports Bi-directional IR which allows for devices at the remote location to be controlled via IR from the source
location. Additionally, devices at the source location can be controlled from the remote location.
1. Connect the IR port on the switcher to an IR Receiver and emitter at the switcher location using a cable terminated per the IR Wiring
section.
