Frequently Asked Questions - RX-35 WyreStorm

How do I connect the RX-35 converter?

Connect an HDMI cable from your source device (e.g., DVD player) to the HDMI input of the RX-35. Then connect composite RCA cables (yellow for video, red/white for audio) from the converter's output to your TV or projector.

What power source does the RX-35 require?

The converter is powered via a micro-USB cable. You can plug it into a standard USB wall adapter (5V, 1A recommended) or directly into a USB port on your TV or computer.

Does the RX-35 support 4K resolution?

No, the RX-35 is designed for standard definition and HD signals up to 1080p. It does not support 4K pass-through or conversion.

Why is there no video output from the converter?

First, ensure all cables are firmly connected. Check that the HDMI source is powered on and outputting a signal. Verify the composite input on your display is selected. If using a USB power adapter, ensure it provides sufficient current (at least 500mA).

Does the converter support both PAL and NTSC?

Yes, the RX-35 automatically detects and converts the video format, supporting both PAL and NTSC video standards.

Can I use the RX-35 with a game console?

Yes, you can connect any HDMI-compatible game console (e.g., PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch) to the RX-35 and output to a composite display. Note that game consoles usually output 480p or higher; the converter will downscale as needed.

Is the converter compatible with HDCP?

The RX-35 may not pass HDCP-protected content. Some streaming devices or Blu-ray players require HDCP compliance. If you see a blank screen or error message, the source may be protected.

What audio formats does the converter support?

The RX-35 extracts stereo audio from the HDMI signal and outputs it via RCA left/right channels. It supports linear PCM 2.0; it does not support Dolby Digital or DTS pass-through.

How do I clean the RX-35?

Unplug the converter and use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe the casing. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.

Where can I find the user manual?

The user manual can be downloaded for free from the product page on notice-facile.com. You can also access it via the manufacturer's website, WyreStorm.

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 it's entirety before running or terminating the wires to ensure proper operation and to avoid damaging equipment.

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 signal transmission which may limit performance. Steps should be taken to minimize or remove these factors completely during installation for best results.
• WyreStorm recommends the use of shielded category cable to minimize signal noise and interference.
• WyreStorm recommends using pre-terminated HDMI cables due to the complexity of these connector types. Using pre-terminated cables will ensure that these connections are accurate and will not interfere with the performance of the product.

IR TX/RX Guidelines

• Using WyreStorm infrared emitters and receivers is the best way to ensure that most IR coding formats are transmitted and received Other 3rd party emitters and receivers can be used; however, these devices must operate in the same manner as the WyreStorm devices.
• Due to differences in IR across 3rd party control systems their IR ports should never be connected directly to a NetworkHD system as an incompatibility may exist. WyreStorm offers a cable that compensates for voltage differences as well adjusts for differences in the pins used within the port. Refer to the CAB-IR-LINK product page for more information.

RS-232 Wiring

The RX-35-POH uses a 3-pin RS-232 with no hardware flow control. 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.

Troubleshooting

No or Poor Quality Picture (snow or noisy image)

• Verify that power is being supplied to the transmitter and receiver.
• Verify that the HDBaseT cable is properly terminated following EIA568B standard.
• Verify that the output resolution of the source and display is supported by this extender.
• 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.

Cat6 Cable Performance Guide

WyreStorm recommends the use of shielded cable to minimize signal noise and interference

IR TX Port Pinout

Connection for IR TX (transmit) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) mono plug.

IR RX Port Pinout

Connection for IR RX (receive) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) stereo jack that outputs +5V DC to power the included IR receiver.

WyreStorm Connector			3rd Party Device
Pin 1	TX (Transmit) --->	To ---> RX (Receive)
Pin 2	RX (Receive) --->	To ---> TX (Transmit)
Pin 3	G (Ground)	---> To --->	G (Ground)

No or Intermittent 3rd party Device Control

• Verify that the RS-232 cables are properly terminated.
• Verify that emitters/receivers are compatible with WyreStorm IR.
• If using an IR control system, verify that it is connected using the CAB-IR-LINK cable.
