Understanding the Matrix / Receiver Status Lights
The Blustream matrix and HDBaseT™ extender solutions include status LED indicators on both the matrix and receiver
products to show all connections are active and to help diagnose possible problems.
Understanding The Status Lights
Blustream Matrix:
• The Yellow HDBaseT™ status link light will be o when the zone output has been turned o or there is a problem
with the specific matrix output
• The Yellow HDBaseT™ status link light will blink when the zone output is on and working
• The Green HDBaseT™ link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Blustream matrix and
HDBaseT™ receiver
• The Green HDBaseT™ link light will be lit when a there is an active HDBaseT™ receiver connected to the matrix
• The Green HDBaseT™ link light will be o when a there is no connection with a HDBaseT™ receiver
Blustream HDBaseT™ Receiver:
• The HDMI link light will be o when there is no connection with a display
• The HDMI link light will be on when there is an active connection with a display (Note: Not all HDBaseT™ RX feature
a HDMI status LED)
• The HDBaseT™ link light will be o when there is no CAT cable / active HDBaseT™ connection on the RJ45
HDBaseT™ input
• The HDBaseT™ link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Blustream matrix and HDBaseT™
receiver
• The HDBaseT™ link light will be lit when a CAT cable is connected to the HDBaseT™ RJ45 output on the matrix and
an active connection is achieved with the Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data
is used by the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display. By pre-determining
the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time need for EDID hand
shaking thus making switching quicker and more reliable.
Configuration of Matrix EDID settings can be achieved in one of three ways:
1Using EDID dip-switches located on the rear of the Matrix - (For further details see ‘C44-KIT User Manual’)
2Using Supplied Blustream Matrix IR Remote Control (For further details see ‘C44-KIT User Manual’)
3Using C44 Web browser interface (For further details see ‘Blustream Web GUI Manual’)
