7. Plug the 12V power supply to HT-150
8. Plug the 12V wall mount power supply into the wall outlet
9. Turn power on the source and the display
1.7 HT-150’s matching receiver options ;
HCE II Rx : CATx (HDBaseT) to HDMI receiver. IR. 230ft (70m)
HTR Rx : CATx (HDBaseT) to HDMI receiver. IR. 330ft (100m)
* for detail specification information about HCE II Rx and HTR Rx, please go to pg 9-11.
Caution :
HT-150 is not designed to work in a network environment, do not connect it to network to avoid
damage
Do not place IR transmitter near from IR receiver to avoid mutual interference
The CATx wiring must be away from any elecromagnetic wave equipment, i.e : mobile phone,
microwave, radio, fluorescent lamp, high voltage power lines.
1.8 EDID Management
PureLink HT-150 provides Auto EDID management system; easy and fail safe way to handle EDID, via
pre-loaded factory default 1080p 2ch and EDID emulation.
What's EDID?

PureLink by Dtrovision
8
Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is an information set that digital display provides to describe its
capabilities to a Video source. Video source will know what kinds of displays are connected and it will determine
which resolution to Output according to the EDID information received from the display.
The EDID normally includes manufacturer name and serial number, sets of capable resolution including native
resolution, supported timing, pixel mapping data (for digital displays only) and etc.
In a digital connectivity environment; in order to support the maximum resolution of connected monitor, EDID
handshake is a critical because improper EDID handshake between sources to the display will result in no image
on the display.
EDID handshake may sound simple; however, with multiple peripheral devices within the chain, display's EDID
information easily get lost or blocked while it is traveling to the source device.
HT-150 provides Auto EDID management system to meet today’s sophisticated digital connectivity integration
environment. There is an EDID setting DIP switch on the back of the unit;
EDID

Dip switch 1,2,3,4 “up” position Communicate EDID with factory default at 1080p 2ch

Dip switch 3 "down" position & 1,2,4 "up" position Communicate EDID with output #3 (CATx) connected display
Dip switch 4 "down" position & 1,2,3 "up" position Communicate EDID with output #4 (CATx) connected display
1.9 IR cable connection guide

PureLink by Dtrovision

There are two (2) IR ports on the HT-150 unit, 1 x IR Tx, and 1 x IR Rx.
IR Tx port is to send IR signals to remote location AV devices (mostly displays) via CATx (HDBaseT) cable
from a local source near HT-150 (ex. Blu ray player).
IR Rx port is to receive IR signals from remote locationAV devices (mostly displays) via CATx (HDBaseT)
cable to control a local source near HT-150 (ex. Blu ray player).
* Please note that HT-150 can only send same IR commands to all outputs. If more than one of the displays
Share the same IR codes, they will react to the commands simultaneously. To avoid this, please use different
brands or models of the displays.
Common IR cabling application would be like below diagram;
