Atlona AT-HDVS-200-TX-PSK User manual

Three-Input Switcher for HDMI and
VGA Sources with Automatic Display
Control and Ethernet-Enabled
HDBaseT Output
The Atlona AT-HDVS-200-TX-PSK is a 3×1 switcher with two HDMI inputs, a VGA input with audio,
and an HDBaseT output. Video signals up to 4K/UHD @ 60 Hz with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling,
plus embedded audio and control signals can be transmitted up to 330 feet (100 meters). The
two-channel audio input can be assigned to any of the video inputs and embedded for HDBaseT
transmission. The AT-HDVS-200-TX-PSK is identical to the AT-HDVS-200-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-200-TX-PSK can serve
as the central component of a small, automated AV system by sending control commands to the
projector via RS-232 or Ethernet, and through automatic input selection. With automatic display
control, the AT-HDVS-200-TX-PSK powers the projector on or off whenever a source is connected
or disconnected from the unit.

Note: To ensure compatibility, please be certain both transmitter and receiver have blue HDBaseT ports. This
ensures both products are PoE (48V) compliant. The HDVS-200-TX is not compatible with PoCC
(black RJ45, 24V) devices

Mounting bracket x 2
The HDVS-200-TX-PSK comes with mounting brackets that can be used to affix the unit to a table,
desk, etc.
To affix the mounting brackets to the unit, use the four included screws. The bracket can be
affixed with the oval holes pointing to the bottom (for against the wall - picture A) or the oval holes
facing the top (for under tables - picture B).
Larger oval
hole will be
attached to
the wall/table.
Mounting
Circular holes
will always be
attached to the
unit.

The captive screw connectors allow you to cut cables to a suitable length, reducing cable clutter
while providing a more reliable connection.
Captive Screw
Connecting
The captive screw connectors have
a contact bar that is adjusted to
compress the wire against the top
contact plate. Use the screws at the
top of the connector to compress
the wire against the contact plate.
When connecting the cables to the female captive screw connector it is important that the wires be
terminated correctly. The female captive screw connector has a contact plate at the top and must
have the wires touching it for signal to pass. When wired correctly (see picture A) the signal will pass,
incorrectly (see picture B) no signal will pass.
Clockwise Counter
Clockwise
Turn the screws clockwise to
raise the contact bar to the
upper contact plate and hold
the wires in place.
Turn the screws counter
clockwise to lower the
contact bar to release the
wires.

RS-232 captive screw connector is included. RS-232 pin out will be determined by the RS-232 cable
and will connect as Rx (receiver), Tx (transmitter), and (ground). (See picture 1)
RS-232
Typical pin out:
2 - TX - Transmitter
3 - RX - Receiver
5 - GND - Ground
Pin out color will differ
per RS-232 cable.

Ethernet
For convenience, the HDVS-200-TX-PSK comes with DHCP on. This enables the switcher to be
connected to a network without knowing available IP addresses. If your network is not compatible
with dynamic IP addresses or if you are using the switcher with a TCP/IP control system, DHCP may
be turned off and a static IP address set using RS-232 commands or the webGUI.
To disable DHCP, use the following command: IPDHCP off. Once disabled, set the IP address using
the IPStatic command (e.g. IPStatic 192.168.1.56).
webGUI
The HDVS-200-TX-PSK provides a built-in webGUI for easy setup and control.
To find the IP address of the switcher, connect the HDVS-200-TX-PSK to a terminal using an RS-
232 cable, and use the following settings: baud rate: 115200, data bits: 8, flow control: None,
stop bits: 1. Use the IPCFG command to display the IP address. Launch a web browser and enter
the IP address of the switcher.
A login screen will appear (this is the same log in for admin and general users). The login for the
webGUI will be username “root” and password “Atlona”.

Troubleshooting
1. The Auto-Switch feature isn’t working. How do I enable it?
You can enable Auto-switching by using the AutoSW command, via TCP/IP or RS-232.
Auto-switching can also be enabled through the On-Screen Display (OSD) or the webGUI.
2. I want to pass only analog audio without video. How do I do this?
Place the unit in “standalone” mode. This mode can be enabled using the FreeRun on
command via TCP/IP or RS-232, or through the webGUI.
3. How do I update the firmware?
The firmware can be updated using the USB port or through the webGUI.
4. How do I find the IP address?
Run the IPCFG command using either RS-232 or TCP/IP. You can also get the IP address
through the webGUI and AMS.
5. How do I switch between DHCP and Static IP modes?
For the AT-HDVS-200-TX-PSK, DHCP can be turned on/off by pressing the INPUT button for
15 seconds. For the AT-HDVS-200-RX, DHCP can be turned on/off by pressing the AUTO
button for 15 seconds. You can also toggle between DHCP and Static IP modes using the
IPDHCP command via TCP/IP or RS-232, or by using the webGUI or AMS.
6. What is the default IP address?
The default static IP address is 192.168.1.254. Please note that the default static IP for both
the transmitter (HDVS-200-TX-PSK) and the receiver (HDVS-200-RX) are the same.
7. I can’t control my display. What’s wrong?
First, check that the desired control method is selected (TCP/IP, RS-232, or CEC). If you are
using RS-232, make sure that the baud rate for RXZone 1 (found under the webGUI)
matches your display settings. The baud rate can be set through the webGUI or by using the
RxRSparaZ1 command via TCP/IP or RS-232. When using the RxRSparaZ1 command, use the
following syntax: RxRSparaZ1[baudrate,data-bits,parity,stop-bits].
Example: RxRSparaZ1[115200,8,0,1]
