1.2 Installation and connection
1.2.1 Installation
TMX-0804HTK Matrix Switchers can be fixed in an
exactly fitting standard cabinet.
A couple of mounting brackets ①are attached to the
product package. First release the screws ②from the
lateral sides of the matrix. Bolt on the brackets to the
housing by using the screws previously released. Now
put the unit into the cabinet, and fix it by screws. As
figure 1.3.
Figure 1.3 Installation
1.2.2 Connection between Matrix Switchers and
PC
TMX-0804HTK Matrix Switchers can be controlled and
setup by computer via RS-232 interface COM2. And it
also can be controlled by Central Control System via
RS-232 interface COM1, this interface is also used for
software upgrade (Figure 1.4).
1.2.3 Connection with input, output devices
TMX-0804HTK Matrix Switchers support various AV and
VGA signal sources. AV signal source equipment should
have RGB or YC joints, VGA signal source equipment
should have RGB joints. If VGA equipment does not
have RGB joints, VGA-RGB converters or drivers
provided by TAIDEN can be used.
Please use good quality 3-core RGB cable to connect
input and output device.
Input connection example for PC, chosen INPUT =
No.1: connect RGB cores 1 to 3 from PC to the
corresponding RGB BNC INPUT joints 1 to 3, in each
case marked No. 1 on the RGB Matrix Switchers (Figure
1.4).
Output connection example to Projector, chosen
OUTPUT= No. 4: connect RGB cores 1 to 3 from
Projector, to the corresponding RGB BNC OUTPUT
joints 1 to 3, marked No. 4 on the TMX-0804HTK Matrix
Switchers (Figure 1.4).
