PLATINUM SERIES V2 USER MANUAL
Our Platinum series of HDBaseT Matrix products oer the very best performance
and flexibility for the custom installer. The Platinum Matrix V2 is a 4K HDCP 2.2
compliant Matrix, transmitting HDMI, Bi-directional IR, RS-232 and PoH (PoE) up
to lengths of 100m over a single CAT cable. The Matrix also provides advanced
features including independent audio routing, Audio Return Channel (ARC),
simultaneous HDBaseT/HDMI outputs, HDBaseT inputs and LAN Serving. The
Matrix can be controlled and configured using the Blustream soware or Web -
GUI, allowing the user to define audio channels, designate EDID presets and insert
audio delays on outputs to correct any lip sync issues within the system.
Introduction
• 6-8x HDMI inputs which can be independently routed to 6-8x HDBaseT/HDMI video outputs (quantity dependent on
model)
• Simultaneous HDBaseT™ and HDMI outputs to allow connection to dual displays per zone
• Supports 4K UHD video (3840 x 2160 @30Hz 4:4:4, 4096 x 2160 @24Hz 4:4:4, and 4K @60Hz 4:2:0)
• Supports distances of up to 70m @ 1080p & 40m @ 4K on a single CAT cable
• 1-2x HDBaseT inputs allowing sources to be located remotely using Blustream HDBaseT transmitters (quantity
dependent on model)
• Supports POH (Power over HDBaseT) to power Blustream transmitters and receivers - no local power supplies
required
• Integrated 24 Input x 16 output Audio Matrix (16 Input x 12 output on PLA66 models)
• Analogue audio L/R embedding onto HDMI outputs with audio delay adjustment
• HDMI audio de-embedding to analog audio L/R + digital coaxial outputs. Please note: Input must be PCM 2CH audio
as the Matrix does not down-mix 5.1ch audio signals

PLATINUM SERIES V2 USER MANUAL
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 then from this information the source will discover what the best
audio and video resolutions need to be outputted.
While the objective of EDID is to make connecting a digital display to a source a simple plug and play procedure issues do arise when
multiple displays or video matrix switching is introduced because of the increased number of variables.
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 acheived in one of three ways:-
1Using Matrix web browser interface (See ‘Blustream Web Browser Interface Guide’ for further details available at www.
blustream.co.uk )
2 Using Matrix Front Panel Buttons (For further details see page 8)
3Using Supplied Blustream Matrix IR Remote Control (For further details see page 12)
EDID Control
Note: EDID settings were revised June 2017 to include independant 4K 4:2:0 and 4K 4:4:4 settings to help with signal management/bandwidth
limitations when using HDMI over HDBaseT distribution. For alternate EDID settings and Firmware please visit the Blustream website.
Audio Breakout
The PLAXX V2 Matrix includes both both coaxial digital and 2CH analogue audio outputs. Audio can be selected from:-
• Breakout from selected HDMI/HDBaseT output. Extracted audio will be concurrent with the corresponding HDMI/HDBaseT
video output.
• Breakout from selected HDMI/HDBaseT inputs. Extracted audio will be fixed to the selected HDMI/HDBaseT source input.
• Analogue 2CH audio inputs. Audio will be fixed to the selected analogue audio input.
• ARC audio return when used with compatible HDBaseT Receivers (feature only available on PLA88/66ARC models). Extracted
audio will be fixed to the selected HDMI/HDBaseT zone output.
The PLAxx V2 analogue outputs include pre-amp line level control allowing you to connect the Blustream Matrix directly into a
power amplifier for all your multi-room audio needs.
Both coaxial and analogue audio outputs can be adjusted for audio delay.
Control of the pre-amp line level outputs is via RS-232, TCP/IP or using the in-built web browser interface. Please see ‘RS-232 &
Telnet Commands’ on page 17 for further details.
Note: Volume control is only available on the analogue audio outputs. Source input must be PCM 2CH audio for analogue audio
outputs to work. The PLAxx V2 Matrix do not down-mix 5.1CH audio signals.
Volume control of audio outputs is not possible via Infrared control.

Terminating HDBaseT CAT cable
It is important that the interconnecting CAT cable between the 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 possible. HDMI distribution
products will only work if used with CAT5e standard cable or above. Blustream recommends using a CAT6 cable for
your installations, especially when running over 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 in the CAT cable is avoided as these will result in
HDBaseT signal degradation. Blustream also recommend using the best quality RJ45 connectors possible.
RJ45 Wiring -
T568B
Understanding the Matrix / Receiver HDBaseT 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 Matrx 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.

PLATINUM SERIES V2 USER MANUAL
RS232 and Telnet Commands
The Blustream Platinum Matrix products can be controlled via serial and TCP/IP. The following pages list all available serial com-
mands for the Platinum Matrix. Details of RS-232 pin assignment can be found on page 5.
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 aer the
string. In the case of some Terminal soware the token <CR> is used to execute a carriage return. Depending on the program you
are using this token maybe dierent. 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 - please see Page 5 for Matrix settings
