EDID Management
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 needed for EDID hand
shaking thus making switching quicker and more reliable.
Configuration of the EDID settings for each input can be achieved using the following RS-232 commands to specify the
required EDID:
EDIDxxDFzz
Where xx = Input: 00 refers to ALL inputs; 01-08 = specific input
zz = EDID as shown below
zz = 00 : HDMI 1080p@60Hz, Audio 2ch PCM (default)

The front panel buttons are used to individually amend the input / output structure of the matrix. Using the Output
Up / Down buttons, first select the desired output, then using the Input Up / Down buttons, select the source
device to switch to. Clicking the Input Up / Down buttons scrolls through the Input / Output numbers sequentially
from 1 - 8 then back to 1.
The Output Up / Down buttons scroll from 1 - 8 then ‘A’ for All, before returning to output 1. Selecting ‘A’: will switch
all outputs to the selected Input.
The front panel buttons can be used for other control features:
• Input Up - press and hold for 3 seconds to power o the matrix (press to power on when in standby mode)
• Output Down - press and hold for 10 seconds to turn on/o front panel button lock
• Output Up - press and hold for 3 seconds to set PTP mode (output 1 = input 1, output 2 = input 2 etc)
Front Panel Control
The Matrix features CEC control of source devices and displays via the products web GUI and RS-232. It is possible to
send CEC commands such as power on / o, input selection as well as volume volume up or down.
Please see the RS-232 command list at the end of this document for a full list of CEC commands available.
Please note: CEC is subject to the support of standardised codes for the sources and displays connected to the Matrix.

Terminating CAT Cable for use with HDBaseT™
It is important that the interconnecting CAT cable between Blustream HDBaseT™ products is terminated using the
correct RJ45 pin configuration. The link CAT cable MUST be a ‘straight’ (pin-to-pin) CAT cable, and it is advised that this
is wired to the T568B wiring standard as this format is less prone to EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference).
When installing CAT cables it is advised that you use the best possible CAT cable quality. HDMI distribution products
will only work if used with CAT5e standard cable or above. Blustream recommends using a CAT6 cable (or better) for
installations, especially when running longer distances, in areas of high EMI, or for 4K signal distribution. It is advised
that using any method of patch panel, wall plate, or join within the CAT cable is avoided as these can add degradation
to the signal. Blustream also recommend using RJ45 connectors that are recommended for use with the choice of CAT
cable.
RJ45 Wiring -
T568B
Understanding the HDBaseT™ Status LED’s
The matrix includes status LED indicators on the HDBaseT™ RJ45 ports to show all connections are active, and to help
diagnose potential connectivity issues.
Understanding the Status Lights - C66 / C88:
• The yellow HDBaseT™ status link light will be OFF when there is no HDBaseT™ link established with a Blustream
HDBaseT™ receiver
• The yellow HDBaseT™ status link light will be ON when there is a HDBaseT™ link established with a Blusream
HDBaseT™ receiver
• The green HDBaseT™ link light will be OFF when there is no video signal being transmitted between the matrix and
Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver
• The green HDBaseT™ link light will be ON when a there is a HDCP enabled video signal being transmitted between
the matrix and Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver
• The green HDBaseT™ link light will BLINK when there is a video signal with no HDCP being transmitted between the
matrix and HDBaseT™ receiver
The link lights will only serve as an indication to the connectivity between matrix and HDBaseT™ receiver unit.
The LED’s will not indicate a termination, bandwidth, interference or cable length issues on a CAT cable run. Blustream
always recommend qualifying / verifying / certifying a CAT cable run for suitability prior to the installation of HDBaseT™
equipment.

This following pages take you through the operation of this Matrix’s Web GUI. You must connect the TCP/IP RJ45 socket
to your local network in order to access the products Web GUI.
By default the matrix is set to DHCP, however if a DHCP server (eg: network router) is not installed the matrix IP address
will revert to below details:
Default IP Address is: 192.168.0.200 Default Username is: blustream Default Password is: 1234
The Web GUI supports multiple users along with multiple user permissions as follows:
Guest Account - This account does not require a user to login. The Guest account can only change sources for each
zone. Guest access can be changed by the Admin, limiting inputs or outputs as necessary.
User Accounts - 7x User accounts can be utilised, each with individual login details. User accounts can be assigned
permissions to specific areas and functions. A User must log in to make use of these functions.
Admin Account - This account allows full access to all functions of the Matrix as well as assigning users with
permissions.
Guest Control Page
The Guest Control Page allows a guest user to change inputs for each zone without needing to be logged into the
matrix. Simply select the square that corresponds with the input and zone you wish to change.
There is also a power button on the lower right corner to turn the Matrix on or o.

RS-232 Page - HDBT
The RS-232 HDBT Page allows you to remotely control devices connected via DB9 serial to remote HDBT Receivers
independently. It is also possible to automate the display on, input select and display o process via RS-232 for each
HDBT output, when the Matrix is turned on.
If RS-232 On is enabled, the Display On, Display Input Select, User Commands 1, 2, and 3 are all sent out of the
corresponding HDBT Receiver, when the Matrix is turned on.
If RS-232 O is enabled, the User O Command will be sent out of the corresponding HDBT Receiver, when the Matrix is
turned o.
You can also specify the Baud Rate and Command Ending (eg: new line, carriage return) to the match the RS-232
device connected to the HDBT Receiver.

RS-232 Configuration and Telnet Commands
The Blustream matrix can be controlled via serial and TCP/IP.
The RS-232 port is used for configuration and control of the product, as well as pass through of RS-232 commands to a
compatible Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver.
The default RS-232 communication settings are:
Baud Rate: 57600
Data Bit: 8
Stop Bit: 1
Parity Bit: none
The following pages list all available serial commands.
Commonly used Serial Commands
There are several commands that are commonly used for control and testing:
STATUS Status will give feedback on matrix such as zones on, type of connection etc...
PON Power on
POFF Power o
OUTxxON (xx is the zone number you wish to turn on)
Example:- OUT01ON (This would turn output one back on)
OUTxxFRyy (xx is the zone out, yy is the input)
Example:- OUT01FR04 (This would switch output 1 to source input 4)
Common Mistakes
• Carriage return – Some programs do not require the carriage return where as other will not work unless sent
directly aer the string. In the case of some Terminal soware the token <CR> is used to execute a carriage return.
Depending on the program you are using this token maybe dierent. Some other examples that other control systems
deploy include \r or 0D (in hex)
• Spaces – Blustream commands do not require space between commands unless specified. There may be some
programs that require spacing in order to work.
- How the string should look is as follows OUT01ON
- How the string may look if spaces are required: OUT{Space}01{Space}ON
• Baud rate or other serial protocol settings not correct
