Atlona AT-HDVS-150-TX-PSK User manual

Three-Input Switcher for
HDMI and VGA Inputs with
HDBaseT Output
The Atlona AT-HDVS-150-TX-PSK is a 3×1 switcher with two HDMI inputs, a VGA input with audio,
and an HDBaseT™ output. Video signals up to 1080p, plus embedded audio and control can be
transmitted up to 230 feet (70 meters), and up to 130 feet (40 meters) for 4K/UHD video @ 60 Hz
with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling. The AT-HDVS-150-TX-PSK is identical to the AT-HDVS-150-TX,
with the addition of local powering capability and an external power supply. This makes it ideal
for extending AV and control directly to a projector with an HDBaseT input. The AT-HDVS-150-
TX-PSK can serve as the central component of a small, automated AV system through automatic
input selection, and by sending RS-232 control commands to the projector. With automatic display
control capability, the AT-HDVS-150-TX-PSK can power the projector on or off whenever a source
is connected or disconnected from the unit.

Troubleshooting
1. Can I use this unit with an AT-HDVS-200-RX?
We do not recommend this combination, as this will result in limited functionality of both
products and you will be unable to program settings into either one.
2. Can I use this unit with the AT-HDVS-150-RX?
Yes. Using this unit with an AT-HDVS-150-RX offers enhanced functionality, such as
automatic display control through RS-232.
3. How do I program settings into this product?
Settings are programmed into the RX side, using the RX software (included in the AT-HDVS-
150-RX firmware file, under “setup.exe”).
4. How do I check the firmware version?
You can check the firmware version of the TX by accessing the On-Screen Display (OSD)
on the RX side. Please note that you will need to have the TX and RX directly connected to
each other via HDBaseT for this to work.
5. How do I update the firmware?
You can update the firmware through USB. Please note that you will need a USB A to
Mini B cable.
6. Does this device have a webGUI?
No, this unit does not have a webGUI.
7. Is this unit compatible with AMS?
No, this unit is not compatible with AMS.
8. Does this unit support free-running analog audio?
No. Analog audio on the AT-HDVS-150-TX-PSK requires a VGA signal.
