SAFETY INFORMATION
1. To ensure the best results from this product, please read this manual and all other documentation before operating your equipment.
Retain all documentation for future reference.
2. Follow all instructions printed on unit chassis for proper operation.
3. To reduce the risk of re, do not spill water or other liquids into or on the unit, or operate the unit while standing in liquid.
4. Make sure power outlets conform to the power requirements listed on the back of the unit. Keep unit protected from rain, water and
excessive moisture.
5. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents or aerosol cleaners, as this may damage the unit. Dust with a clean dry cloth.
6. Do not use the unit if the electrical power cord is frayed or broken. The power supply cords should be routed so that they are not
likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
7. Do not force switched or external connections in any way. They should all connect easily, without needing to be forced.
8. Always operate the unit with the AC ground wire connected to the electrical system ground. Precautions should be taken so that the
means of grounding of a piece of equipment is not defeated.
9. AC voltage must be correct and the same as that printed on the rear of the unit. Damage caused by connection to improper AC
voltage is not covered by any warranty.
10. Turn power off and disconnect unit from AC current before making connections.
11. Never hold a power switch in the “ON” position.
12. This unit should be installed in a cool dry place, away from sources of excessive heat, vibration, dust, moisture and cold. Do not use
the unit near stoves, heat registers, radiators, or other heat producing devices.
13. Do not block fan intake or exhaust ports. Do not operate equipment on a surface or in an environment which may impede the normal
ow of air around the unit, such as a bed, rug, carpet, or completely enclosed rack. If the unit is used in an extremely dusty or smoky
environment, the unit should be periodically “blown free” of foreign dust and matter.
14. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to
qualied service personnel. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
15. When moving the unit, disconnect input ports rst, then remove the power cable; nally, disconnect the interconnecting cables to
other devices.
16. Do not drive the inputs with a signal level greater than that required to drive equipment to full output.
17. The equipment power cord should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
18. Save the carton and packing material even if the equipment has arrived in good condition. Should you ever need to ship the unit,
use only the original factory packing.
19. Service Information Equipment should be serviced by qualied service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged.
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the equipment.
C. The equipment has been exposed to rain.
D. The equipment does not appear to operate normally, or exhibits a marked change in performance.
E. The equipment has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of one of the most innovative
Component/Digital/Audio matrix switching products on the market today.
The SB-5644 4x4 Component Video + Digital/Analog Audio matrix
switcher with RS-232 is designed to work as a switcher for multiple Audio/
Video sources and displays. Capable of switching Component Video,
SPDIF and Stereo Audio signals between (4) sources and (4) displays
with compatible inputs. A maximum bandwidth of 325MHz will support
a sharp and highly dened video in multiple resolutions of up to 1080p.
Because it is a matrix switcher, it allows any input to be routed to any
output; or the same input to be routed to all outputs or any combination.
It completely eliminates the need to constantly move around video input
and output cables. RS-232 control allows the switcher to be controlled
by a computerized system such as HTPC and in this case eliminates the
need for an infrared remote control. The 4x4 matrix switcher works with all
video equipment that has proper connections: such as cable and satellite
receivers, computers, video scalers, DVD players, VCRs and so on.

OPERATING THE UNIT
Once you have connected the SB-5644 as described above, you must be certain that the inputs are being fed appropriate signals and are
not suffering from signal loss due to cabling problems or problems with the source device.
If the input signals to the SB-5644 are appropriate, switch the power switch to <ON> and you should see and hear the signals on the
devices you have connected to the various output connectors of the SB-5644.
POWER AND CONNECTIONS
This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet. The off state for this unit is called
standby mode. In standby mode the unit is designed to consume a reduced quantity of power compared to normal operating modes.
When not using the unit for a long period of time. Insure that the AC power cord is disconnected from the wall outlet. The AC wall outlet
should be installed near to the unit and be easily accessible. Do not plug in or attempt to operate an obviously damaged unit.

Before making any connections observe the following:
• Ensure the main voltage supply matches the label on the supplied plug-pack (+/-10%).
• Ensure that the power switch is OFF.
• Ensure that all system grounds (earth) are connected to a common point.
• Avoid powering equipment within a system from multiple power sources that may be separated by large distances.
• Connect all audio video sources and destination equipment.
• Power up all source and destination audio-visual sources.
• For each destination output select the appropriate input source by using the front panel input select buttons. The supplied IR remote
control. Or through the RS-232 serial communications port.
• Upon powering up the switcher, it will return to its last used setting before being powered down.

RS-232 SERIAL INTERFACE CONNECT a PC or CONTROL SYSTEM
RS-232
The switcher can be controlled via the RS-232 serial control port to allow for
interfacing to a PC or similar third party control system.
The serial communication parameters are 9600 baud, 8 bit, No Parity and 1 stop
bit - this is often referred to as 9600 8N1. When the unit recognizes a complete
command it will perform the requested action - there is no delimiter character
required.
The unit does not send out a message when a value is changed from the front
panel or by IR control. If the unit needs to be controlled via the front panel in
addition to the RS-232 control, you should regularly poll the unit status to ensure
the control system accurately reects the current settings.
PROTOCOL COMMANDS

MORE STUFF FOR SB-5644
FNote: Turning the unit system power off over RS-232 will distinguish the LED display leaving only the power switch LED
on. The video and audio outputs will also mute. While the unit is turned off by RS-232 it will continue to accept and
act upon switching commands. For Example: if the unit is in the off mode (via RS-232) and you send a command
to switch an input to an output, that route will complete and the video and audio will now appear on that channel only.
The front panel LED for that particular output will also show the input selected (for that single output channel only). The
remaining LED’s will remain off and video and audio outputs muted. The unit will still return status and change messages
in response to commands sent while in power off state. A hard reset command (SBALLRST) will return the unit to
normal operation and also unlock the front panel.
POWER OFF MODE
SBSYSMOF - Put system into Standby (Soft Power Off)
SBSYSMON - Bring unit out of Standby (Soft Power On)
Unit will respond with:
SBALOFAK - Unit is in Standby
SBALONAK - Unit is no longer in Standby
Example: Put Unit in Standby (Soft Power)
SBSYSMOF -Send
SBALOFAK -Rcvd
FRONT PANEL LOCK
FNote: Hard resetting the unit will unlock the Front Panel controls.
SBSYSMLK - When front panel is locked, changes can only be made by RS-232

Unit will respond with:
SBSYSLOK - Front Panel has been Locked
SBSYSULK - Front Panel has been Unlocked
Example: Lock Front Panel Buttons
SBSYSMLK -Send
