Wiring and Connections
WyreStorm recommends that all wiring for the installation is run and terminated prior to making connections to the switcher. Read through this section in this
entirety before running or terminating the wires to ensure proper operation and to avoid damaging equipment.
HDMI/HDBaseT Wiring
IMPORTANT! Wiring Guidelines
• The use of patch panels, wall plates, cable extenders, kinks in cables, and
electrical or environmental interference will have an adverse effect on HDMI
and Ethernet transmission limiting performance. Steps should be taken to
minimize or remove these factors completely during installation for best
results.
• WyreStorm recommends using high quality HDMI cables such as
WyreStorm Express to ensure the highest content performance available.
• The type of category cable and length used can restrict the available video
resolution. While Cat5e can be used, WyreStorm recommends using Cat6
or higher to ensure the highest content performance available. See Video
Resolutions in the Specications table before determining cable type and
length.

IR TX/RX Wiring
IMPORTANT! IR TX/RX Guidelines
• WyreStorm IR ports function differently than standard IR ports. For this
reason only WyreStorm IR emitters and receivers can be used.
• WyreStorm IR emitter and receiver cables cannot be spliced as cutting
into the cables will short the shield. While an extension cable may be used,
WyreStorm assumes no responsibility for operation using an extension
cable.
• When connecting the IR TX to an IR connecting blocks or control system
with different plugs, a cable must be made following the IR TX Port Pinout
diagram.
• When connecting to an IR control system use the WyreStorm CAB-IR-LINK
cable. This cable compensates for differences between the WyreStorm RX
and the control systems TX connection. Visit the WyreStorm CAB-IR-LINK
product page for details.

EDID Settings
An EDID can be congured to resolve issues with video output on displays that may not accept the maximum resolution available from the source.
• When set to SmartEDID (default) the matrix will scan all selected displays for the lowest resolution to dynamically adjust the source content to allow output
on 2K and 4K displays sharing the same source.
• When EDID Copy or a direct EDID is being used, SmartEDID is turned Off.
• Ensure that a display is connected and powered On to the selected output before copying an EDID or the copy will fail. When this occurs, EDID will be set to
4K@30Hz 2ch.
• Power to the matrix must be cycled (Off/On) after changing dip switches in order for the setting to take effect.
Copying and EDID
1. Set the EDID dipswitch to the Front Panel, Web UI or API EDID Control
(all switches up).
2. Reboot the matrix.
3. Using the front navigation buttons, select the input port for the output.
Example: Input 2 for Output 2
4. Once the output port indicator blinks, press and hold Enter for 5 seconds. An OK message of the display indicates that the copy was successful, an FL-2
indicates that the copy failed.
5. Reboot the matrix.
Note: EDID Copy feature is not available when Matrix in Smart EDID mode.

Accessing the Web UI
While the matrix will connect to a network out the box, it has a default static IP address that may interfere with other WyreStorm devices on the same network.
WyreStorm recommends changing the IP address of the matrix to one other than the default.
1. Connect the matrix and the PC to the same network.
2. Congure the PC to a 192.168.11.xxx IP address with a subnet of
255.255.0.0.
3. Open a web browser and enter the IP Address of the matrix.
Default: 192.168.11.143 | Password: admin
4. Login to the Installer Section by using the Installer Password
Default: admin
5. Navigate to Advanced Setting> Network.
6. Change the IP Address to match the range of the network and subnet
mask or use DHCP.
7. After updating the IP Address, congure the PC back to a 192.168.1.xxx IP
address with a subnet of 255.255.255.0.
Troubleshooting
No or Poor Quality Picture (snow or noisy image)
• Verify that power is being supplied to devices in the system and that they are
powered on.
• Verify that all source and HDBaseT connections are not loose and are
functioning properly.
• Verify that the HDBaseT cable is properly terminated per the HDMI/HDBaseT
Wiring section.
• Verify that the matrix, receiving device, and display supports the output
resolution of the source. Refer to Video Resolutions in the Specications
table for the max distance based on resolution.
• If transmitting 3D or 4K, verify that the HDMI cables used are 3D and/or 4K
rated.
No or Intermittent Matrix or 3rd party Device Control
• Verify that IR cable(s) are properly terminated. See IR TX/RX Wiring.
• Verify that the IR emitter is located near the IR receiver on the device.
Troubleshotting Tips
• WyreStorm recommends using a cable tester or connecting the cable to
other devices to verify functionality.
• Use a ashlight to locate the IR receiver behind any tinted panels on the
device being controlled.
