Introduction
chapter we would like to introduce the device highlighting the most important
features in the below listed sections:
High bandwidth allows extension of resolutions up to 4K
and even 3D sources and displays are supported.
Analog audio and video signals are converted to digital
before being sent to the output.
Each output has a clean, jitter free signal, eliminating
signal instability and distortion caused by long cables or
on the digital video inputs can be disabled when non-
protected content is extended.
Built-in Event Manager
The Event Manager tool takes care of all the necessary
Hence, in a less complex environment, there is no need
to invest in additional control solutions, which makes the
receiver the best choice for numerous applications.
The Autoselect feature can sense the port status on the
video input ports and select automatically one of them.
Priority number can be set for each input port and the
feature allows to set variuos modes for the automatic
RS-232
controlled devices. Serial port pass-through supports
any unit that works with standard RS-232.
Description
UMX-HDMI-140 switches universal 4K video and audio to a HDMI
output port. This device was designed for digital and analog video
stereo audio from local inputs or embedded 7.1 HBR audio. The unit
can also handle HDCP encryption. Analog signals (both audio and
video) are converted into digital format. Using the factory, custom
on each input connector. Advanced EDID Management forces the
conforming the system requirements.
The device can be mounted on a rack shelf or used standalone.
UMX-HDMI-140 is compatible with HDMI extenders and matrix
switchers.

Audio Embedding
The switcher has a built-in audio embedder function which means the audio signal being received on the
analog audio input port can be embedded to the HDMI output.

Technical Background
Serial data communication can be established via the local RS-232 port (Phoenix connector). Three different
RS-232 modes can be set for the serial port: Control mode, Command Injection mode, or Event Manager

Event Manager Mode
Third-party devices can be controlled from Event Manager in this mode. ASCII characters and binary data in
hexadecimal format can be used in this case.
The following ways are available for controlling the devices:
▪The System controllerSwitcher to the given port number. The
Switcher converts the incoming TCP messages to RS-232 commands and transmits over the local
RS-232 port to the HDTV. The local RS-232 port has to be set to Command Injection mode. In this case
the direction of the communication is bi-directional between the Switcher and the System controller,
▪The Switcher sends a "power on" message to the HDTV via the RS-232 port if signal is received on the
Event Manager mode and an event has to be
created where the condition is "signal is received on I4" and the action is "send a message on RS-232
port". Find a detailed example for the serial message sending in the Event Creating - Example section.
IR Interface

The Concept
An IR detector is attached to the Infrared input port of the switcher and IR signals are sent by the Remote
UMX-HDMI-140 switcher's input can be routed by the remote controller the following way:
Step 1. Make the Switcher learn the IR codes of the desired remote control buttons, see the
section.
Step 2. Arrange the events in Event Manager; if the set IR code is received from the IR input (condition), then
switch the input source between the Blu-ray player and the MacBook (action) in the Switcher. In this case
you can control the HDTV via the Switcher remotely. See the details about the Event Manager settings
in the Event Manager section.

Settings of the Switcher
▪For Relay 1: create an event in Event manager: when signal is present on Input 1 (I1) then set GPIO pins
to low level for Relay 1 opening. Also create another event when signal is not present on Input 1 (I1)
then set GPIO pins to high level for Relay 1 closing.
▪For Relay 2: create an event in Event manager when signal is present on Input 1 (I1) then set GPIO pins
to high level for Relay 2 closing. Also create another event when signal is not present on Input 1 (I1)
then set GPIO pins to low level for Relay 2 opening.
send signal to Relay 1 to open which results turning off the lights. Furthermore GPIO pins also send signal
signal to Relay 2 to open so projection screen returns to its enclosure.
ATTENTION! Please always check the electrical parameters of the devices what you want to control. The
maximum current of one GPIO pin is 30 mA, the maximum total current for the seven pins is 180 mA.
