Important Safety Instructions
Please read and keep the information in the attached safety instructions supplied with the
product before you start using the device.
Introduction
HDMI-TPS-RX120-HDSR is a TPS receiver with a local HDMI input and a built-in HD video
scaler. Conversion between common formats and frame rates are supported. One common
resolution can be used across a system independently of the connected displays requirement,
which improves general performance.
The connected display receives continuous HDMI signal thanks to the scaler, thus eliminating
annoying warnings and longer interruptions when switching the input signal.
Compatible Devices
The receiver is compatible with other Lightware TPS devices, TPS and TPS2 output boards,
as well as third-party HDBaseT-extenders, displays, but not compatible with the phased out
TPS-90 extenders.
The product is compatible with any HDBaseT
TM
third party devices.
HDBaseTTM and the HDBaseT Alliance logo are trademarks of the HDBaseT Alliance.

Optional Accessory
The following accessory can be purchased separately:
Powering Options
 The receiver cannot be powered remotely, always use the supplied power adaptor.
Warranty is void if damage occurs due to use of a different power source.
Locking DC Connector
The DC connector has a small latch which helps to avoid
an unwanted power disconnection – push the plug until it
stops. Be careful when disconnecting the DC plug from the
connector, do not pull it by grabbing the cable, always grab the
moveable plastic angular housing as indicated in the gure.

Mounting Options
The receiver can be mounted by the optional VESA100 Mounting adapter (please contact
[email protected]). See the below example about the application:
Two mounting holes can be found at the bottom of the receiver at each side, the Mounting
adapter can be xed as indicated. The other two holes of the plate can be xed to a VESA-
mounting compatible device (e.g. rear panel of an HDTV).
 The VESA100 Mounting adapter can be used to x the receiver e.g. under the desk.
Connecting Steps Remote Control Unit (Optional Accessory)
Bi-directional Pass-through Data Lines
The direction of the video extension is xed from the transmitter side towards to the receiver
but the pass-through data lines are bi-directional. Thus, RS-232, IR, Ethernet source and sink
devices can be connected either to the TX or to the RX and the signal is transmitted to the
other extender.

About the IR Extension
The IR input and output ports receives/sends baseband IR signal, no modulation/demodulation
is done. These ports are suitable for wired IR connections mostly.
IR Port Pinout (Applicable Plugs)
 The IR Transmitter and Receiver units supplied with other Lightware devices cannot
be connected to the receiver directly.
RS-232 Communication
The serial data coming from the TPS line is passed through to the RS-232 port and vice versa.
If the incoming command is known by the receiver, it will be processed. Please note that in
such cases the response from the receiver will be sent to the sender only. E.g. if a command is
sent from the local RS-232 port, the response would not be sent over the TPS line but appear
only at the local RS-232 port.

 The response values are single Bytes except in the case of the [OUTPUT] which is always
a double Byte, eg. ‘12’.
List of RS-232 Commands
 The underlined values mean the default settings.
Typical Application
RS-232 Commands
Below listed commands can be used to query or control the receiver. The commands can be
sent via the local RS-232 port or via the TPS line. Please check the serial port settings which
are xed in the device:
Baud rate: 9600; data bit: 8 bits; parity: none; stop bit: 1
 Connect a cross-link serial cable between the receiver and a computer.
Protocol Description
The commands must be followed by Carriage return and Line feed (<CR><LF>).
The parameters can be queried (read) by the ’R’ letter in each case.
The parameters can be set by the ’S’ letter.
The commands are not case-sensitive.
The ● symbol means the space character in below examples.

Error Responses
When undened value is sent (e.g. S SOURCE 9) the response will be ERROR. Unknown
and insufcient commands are not processed, response is not sent.
The Handling of the Batteries
Use only standard batteries. Do not use new and used batteries together. This may cause a
battery to break or leak and may cause re, injury, or contamination (damage). When replacing
the batteries, insert them with right polarity. Otherwise, the battery may become damaged or it
may cause re, personal injury or damage due to leakage of the internal liquid. The batteries
(and rechargeable batteries) are not ordinary refuse and must be returned for recycling
purposes. The customer is responsible for returning the used or rechargeable batteries for
recycling. Be careful that children do not place the batteries in their mouths when removed
from the remote control. Place the battery in a location that children or infants cannot reach.
Correct Disposal of Batteries in this Product
This marking on the battery indicates that the batteries in this product should
not be disposed of with other household waste at the end of their working life.
Where marked, the chemical symbols Hg, Cd or Pb indicate that the battery
contains mercury, cadmium or lead above the reference levels in EC Directive
2006/66. If batteries are not properly disposed of, these substances can
cause harm to human health or the environment. To protect natural resources and to promote
material reuse, please separate batteries from other types of waste and recycle them through
your local, free battery return system.

2. Launch the LDC software and select the Serial Devices tab.
3. Press the Query button of the given COM port, select the device and press the Connect
button.
Connecting via the TPS Line to an MX-FR Matrix Switcher (TPS Output Board)
1. Connect the receiver to an MX-FR matrix with TPS output port.
2. Connect the matrix to a LAN and connect a computer to the same LAN.
3. Start the LDC software and connect to the matrix listed at Ethernet Devices tab.
4. Open the Port properties panel of the given TPS output port and press the Open remote
device settings button at the bottom of the window.
 The preferred resolution of the last attached sink will be the default when connected.
