Hardware recommendations
At tvONE, we design our products to the highest quality standards. To
get the best results from our products, we recommend that you use
the best quality connectors, cables, and adapters. Consider the points
below when you choose accessories and position equipment.
nFor best results with HDMI/DVI, use cables under 15m long, or
shorter if you use connection adapters. If you need to place your
products more than 15m apart, use a signal extender.
See our range of signal extenders at tvone.com/signal-extension-
systems.
nFor best results with HDMI, use High Speed or Premium High
Speed HDMI cables.
nIn industrial environments, use shielded Ethernet cables.
Shielded Ethernet cables are often marked F/UTP or FTP. This is
relevant when using HDBaseT modules for Cat 6 and AVIPmodule
for USB.
nUse good quality USB drives compatible with USB 3.0.
Extractor tool
Modules with four inputs or outputs can be difficult to remove. Some,
including HDMI four input, are designed with a small notch. Use the
extractor tool to hook into the notch and pull out the module, as
illustrated.

About your CORIOmatrix™
CORIOmatrix connects to a wide range of sources and displays, and
works with the CORIOmatrix UI web application to give you complete
control over your video and audio routing, with up, down, and cross
conversion.

In a CORIOmatrix, slots are numbered from 1 at the top left to 16 at the bottom
right. Slots 1 and 2 can only contain input modules, and slots 15 and 16 can only
contain output modules. This means you can't put an audio module that has
both input and output in those slots.

In a CORIOmatrix mini, slot 4, at the bottom left, can only contain an output
module and slot 6, at the bottom right, can only contain an input module. This
means you can't put an audio module that has both input and output in slot 4 or
slot 6.

Quick start
This Quick Start Guide gives you an overview of the steps involved in
setting up your CORIOmatrix or CORIOmatrix mini. See your
CORIOmatrix™ User Guide for more details.
1. Plan what AV inputs and outputs you need, and check that you
have the right input and output modules for the slots.
Label your cables with the source or display they are connected to.
2. Install your hardware.
a. Set up your displays.
b. Connect your sources to your input modules.
c. Connect your displays and any audio output devices to your
output modules.
d. Connect your control PC.
e. Power on your CORIOmatrix.
3. Your CORIOmatrix comes with a USB drive which contains
software for installing CORIOdiscover as well as release notes and
a PDF of the CORIOmatrix quick start guide.
4. Open CORIOdiscover and select your CORIOmatrix from the list.
If you can't see your CORIOmatrix listed, see the full user guide.
The user guide is available on the USB drive that came with your
CORIOmatrix.
5. If you use DHCP, select your CORIOmatrix from the list in
CORIOdiscover, and select Open to access the CORIOmatrix UI.

QSG-C3-3xx-V2.01 7
If you don't use DHCP or need a static IPaddress:
a. Select your CORIOmatrix in CORIOdiscover.
b. Select Configure.
c. In the Configuration field, select Static.
d. Note the IP address.
e. Open an internet browser and enter the CORIOmatrix's IP
address.
6. Log in to the CORIOmatrix UI. The default user name is admin
and the default password is adminpw.
7. When you first log in to CORIOmatrix UI, you see the routing
screen, which lists all video and audio slots. It lists input slots
vertically and output slots horizontally. You configure routing in the
cells where the inputs and outputs intersect.

8 tvONE
If the display panes overlay each other, select Ctrl +F5 to clear the cache.
8. Select Synchronized. In synchronized mode, the routing you set in
the main workspace is only applied to the CORIOmatrix itself when
you select Take.
9. Optional, but recommended: name your input and output ports.
a. Select to define a new name for a slot in the Settings pane.
b. Give each port a name that describes the device connected to
it. Names must be unique and start with a letter. They can
contain letters, numbers, and underscores, and can be up to 19
characters long.
c. Select Done then Save.
d. If in synchronized mode, select Take to apply the names to
your CORIOmatrix.
10. Set up your basic video routing
a. Find the video source you want to play on the left-hand side.
b. Find the display you want your source to appear on along the
top.
c. Select the cell in the row for your source, and the column for
your display

QSG-C3-3xx-V2.01 9
d. The cell turns blue, with a blue lozenge in it.
11. Set up your basic audio routing
a. Clear Video at the top left.
b. If you have an audio module, you can route the inputs and
outputs of your audio module in the same way that you route
video. Select the cell in the row of your audio input, and the
column of your audio output.
c. If you are routing audio from an AV source, select the cell in the
row of your AV input, and the column of your audio output.
d. The cell you select turns blue, with a purple lozenge in it. This
means that the audio is in breakaway mode.
12. Choose a mode for your audio routing.
a. Select a cell, and then select one of two modes from the
list:Audio Follows Video (AFV) or Breakaway.

10 tvONE
nIn AFV mode, you define the audio source in relation to the
video source. When you select a specific video source for an
output, the related audio plays. If you change the video source,
the audio source changes as well. Audio in AFV mode shows
as a yellow lozenge.
nIn breakaway mode, you define the audio source in relation to
the output module, which could be a video display or an audio
device. Whatever video source you choose, you always hear
the audio that you chose for that output. Audio in breakaway
mode shows as a purple lozenge. Breakaway is the default for
audio modules, which initially have the same source for video
and audio input. To set audio to come from a different source,
select Configure from the cell's dropdown menu.
See your CORIOmatrix User Guide for further details.
13. Select Take to apply the video and audio routing to your
CORIOmatrix and reset the cells to a black background.
14. Check that the sources you expect to see are playing on the
devices you expect them to play on. If not, check:
nYou've connected your sources and displays to the correct
ports
nYou've named your ports correctly
nYou've selected the right cells for routing
nYour sources are playing
nThat your cables are connected and not damaged
See your CORIOmatrix User Guide, in the Troubleshooting section,
for further advice.
