HDMI Wiring
IMPORTANT! Wiring Guidelines
• The use of patch panels, wall plates, cable extenders, kinks in cables,
and electrical or environmental interference can have an adverse effect
on HDMI transmission limiting performance. Steps should be taken to
minimize these factors (or remove completely) during installation for
best results.
IR Ext (Receiver) Wiring
Connection for IR Ext (receive) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) stereo jack that
outputs +5V DC to power the included IR receiver.
IMPORTANT! IR TX Connection Guidelines
• 3rd party IR receivers may require a different voltage, refer to the
documentation provided with the IR receiver before making any
connections to avoid damaging the device.
• When connecting to an IR control system use the
WyreStorm CAB-IR-LINK stereo to mono cable to remove the sleeve
+5V DC.
Tip:
Ring: IR Signal
+5V DC
Sleeve: Ground (GND)
RS-232 Wiring
RS-232 Connection Guidelines
The following wiring diagram shows the pinouts for the extender set.
While not shown, connect the TX (transmit) to RX (receive) pins at the
control system or PC side of the cable.
Most control systems and computers are DTE where pin 2 is RX, this can
vary from device to device. Refer to the documentation for the connected
device for pin functionally to ensure that the correct connections can be
made.

EDID Settings
EDIDs can be congured to resolve issues with video output on displays
that may not accept the maximum resolution available from the source.

Note:
• Ensure that a display is connected and powered On to the selected
output before copying EDIDs 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 EDIDs
1. Set the EDID dipswitch to the Front Panel, Web UI or API EDID
Control (all switches down).
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. OK indicates that the copy was successful, FL-2 indicates
that the copy failed.
5. Reboot the matrix.
Note: EDID Copy feature is not available when Matrix in Smart EDID
mode.

Troubleshooting
No or Poor Quality Picture (snow or noisy image)
• Verify that power is being supplied to the splitter, sources, and display
devices.
• Verify that the splitter supports the output resolution of the source.
• Verify that the splitter and display devices support the output resolution
of the source.
• Congure EDID Settings to a lower resolution.
• If transmitting 3D or 4K, verify that the HDMI cables used are 3D or 4K
rated.
• Verify that all source and HDBaseT connections are not loose and are
functioning properly.
Troubleshooting Tips:
• WyreStorm recommends using a cable tester or connecting the cable
to other devices to verify functionality.
