HC 402 • Setup Guide
HC402 System
The Extron HC402 system is an AV presentation solution that incorporates a built-in control processor for display control via
HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), RS-232, IR, or Ethernet. It also includes digital I/O ports.
Each system is a transmitter-receiver pair that is factory-optimized to work together as if it were a single unit.
Together each transmitter-receiver system extends video, audio, and control signals up to 230feet (70m) over a single CATxcable.
Each system offers two auto-input switching modes, one of which automatically selects sources based on input signals and also
allows manual source selection via buttons. Auto-switching modes can be enabled or disabled via Extron Product Configuration
Software (PCS). The “last connected” auto-switching mode is enabled by default.
The HC402 features two AV inputs and one output. It consists of a one-input transmitter (HCT101D) and a scaling receiver
(HCR102) that has one HDMI input and one connection from the transmitter. The transmitter has a decorator-style wallplate and
can be mounted into a standard US 1-gang junction box; and the receiver is wall, furniture, or rack mountable.
HCT101D HCR102
Transmitter
The HCT101D transmitter includes one digital (HDMI) video input and
one analog audio input. It does not include input selection buttons and
LEDs. The extended HDMI video signal can be HDCP-compliant.
Receiver
The HCR102 receiver incorporates a high performance, HDCP compliant
scaler that scales video to provide a consistent output resolution to a
display. It accepts video with resolutions from 480i up to 1920x1200, 1080p, and 2K, and performs upscaling and downscaling
with multiple output rates up to 1920x1200, including HDTV 1080p/60 and 2K. The receiver includes an on-screen display, test
patterns, and EDID Minder.
This setup guide provides instructions for an experienced installer to install the HCT101D and the HCR102. The guide provides
information needed to configure the most essential settings for the system and the receiver. It also describes basic operations using
front panel controls and the on-screen display (OSD) menu system. Full details are available in the HC400 Series User Guide.

hole and perform the physical installation so the surface will not be damaged.
• S’il est prévu d’installer le HCT101D dans du beau mobilier, il est préférable de faire appel à un artisan autorisé et
qualifié pour couper le trou d’accès et réaliser l’installation de telle façon que la surface ne soit pas endommagée.
• Follow all national and local building and electrical codes that apply to the installation site.
• Respectez tous les codes électriques et du bâtiment, nationaux et locaux, qui s’appliquent au site de l’installation.
NOTE: For the installation to meet UL requirements and to comply with National Electrical Code (NEC), the HCT101D must be
installed in a ULListed junction box. The end user or installer must furnish the junction box. It is not included with the unit.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance
When planning where to install the HC system, you may need to consider factors affecting accessibility of the units such as height
from the floor, distance from obstructions, and how far a user must reach to press the buttons or insert a cable. For guidelines,
see sections 307 (“Protruding Objects”) and 308 (“Reach Ranges”) of the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design available at
http://www.ada.gov/regs2010/2010ADAStandards/2010ADAStandards.pdf.
Site preparation
Each HCT101D fits a standard US one-gang junction box or mud ring
and decorator-style wallplate. Each unit ships with a mud ring.
Optional ULListed junction boxes, external junction boxes, and
surface mounting boxes are available for use with the unit. Read
any installation instructions and UL guidelines that come with the
mounting devices, then install the box or mud ring in the opening
at the installation site.
To prepare the site:
1. Using the size of the junction box or mud ring for reference,
cut the hole in the mounting surface. Protect the surface prior
to and during cutting so the surface is not damaged.
2. Run cables to the mounting location, leaving enough slack for
device installation.
3. Install the junction box or mud ring into the wall or furniture.
4. Secure the cables with a clamp for strain relief and so they do
not slip back down into the wall or furniture.
Step 3 — Connect AV, Interconnection, and Control Cables
1. Connect AV sources to the input connectors (see AV Inputs on page9).
2. Use a shielded twisted pair cable to connect the transmitter to the receiver via the Output and Input RJ-45 connectors (see
Transmitter-Receiver Interconnection on page10).
3. Connect AV output devices (display, projector, or other device, and an amplifier or powered speakers) to the output
connectors (see AV Outputs on page10).
4. If applicable, use Extron Show Me cables for controlling and indicating input selection (see instructions for the Remote
connectors in Control on page11).
5. Cable the control ports on the receiver as desired for controlling AV devices and for communicating with the system via LAN
(see Control on page11).

(see figures 8 and 9).
3. Secure the transmitter to the junction box or mud ring as
follows:
a. Insert the included screws through the oval
mounting holes at the top and bottom of the
transmitter and into the corresponding threaded
holes in the box or mud ring.
b. Using a Phillips screwdriver, lightly tighten
the screws until snug.
ATTENTION:
• Do not overtighten the screws.
• Veillez à ne pas trop serrer les vis.
4. Attach the wallplate to the transmitter:
a. Align the wallplate openings with the
faceplates of the transmitter, and place the
wallplate against the unit.
b. Insert the included screws through the
circular holes in the wallplate and the tabs
on the transmitter. Tighten the screws
using a flat bladed screwdriver until snug.
5. Reconnect power to all devices.

Digital AV input
For HDMI video and for digital audio embedded within HDMI signals:
1. Connect a digital video source device to any HDMI input connector on the
transmitter or receiver (see Din Rear and Side Panel Features on page3).
2. To secure each cable to the unit, attach an Extron LockIt®bracket to the unit and
secure it to the cable with a zip tie.
a. Plug the HDMI cable into the panel connection (see aat right).
b. Loosen the HDMI connection mounting screw from the panel enough to allow the
LockIt lacing bracket to be placed over it (b). The screw does not have to be
removed.
c. Place the LockIt lacing bracket on the screw and against the connector (c), then
tighten the screw (d) to secure the bracket.
d. Loosely place the included tie wrap around the connector and the LockIt lacing
bracket as shown (e).
e. While holding the connector securely against the lacing bracket, tighten the tie
wrap, then remove any excess length.
Complete details on LockIt installation are available in the LockIt HDMI Cable Lacing
Bracket Installation Guide.
Transmitter-Receiver Interconnection
Connect the Out port of the transmitter (see figure 3, E, on page 3) to the In port of the
receiver (F) using a shielded twisted pair CATxcable of up to 230 feet (70 m), as shown in
figure 1 on page 1. Terminate the cable with shielded RJ-45 connectors using the TIA/EIA-
T568B wiring standard at both ends, as shown at right.
ATTENTION:
• Do not connect this port to a computer data network or a telecommunications network.
• Veuillez ne pas connecter ce port à un réseau de données informatiques ou à un
réseau de télécommunications.
• Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or STP201 cable.
• N’utilisez pas le câble AV Skew-Free UTP version améliorée UTP23SF-4 d’Extron ou
le câble STP201.
For optimal performance, Extron highly recommends the following:
• Use the TIA/EIA-T568B wiring standard for terminating all STP cables with RJ-45 connectors.
• Use shielded twisted pair cable, 24 AWG solid conductor or better, with a minimum cable bandwidth of 400 MHz.
• Use shielded RJ-45 plugs to terminate the cable.
• Overall transmission distance capabilities vary depending on the number of patches used. If possible, limit the number of
patches to 2 total.
• If patches must be used in the system, Extron recommends shielded CAT6 (or better) patch cables.
AV Outputs
1. Connect a display, projector, or other AV device to the Outputs HDMI/CEC connector (see figure 3, G) on the receiver rear
panel for HDMI AV output.
2. Connect the cable and install the LockIt bracket (see step 2 within Digital AV input above) in the same method as for the
HDMI inputs.
3. For analog audio output, connect an amplifier,
powered speaker or other audio device to the
3.5mm, 5-pole captive screw connector. See the
diagrams at right for the appropriate wiring for your
application. For unbalanced audio, connect the
sleeve(s) to the ground contact; do not connect
the sleeve(s) to the negative (-) contacts.
