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 its 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 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 WyreStorm 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.

Cat6 Cable Performance Guide

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.

RS-232 Wiring

The EX-70-H2X 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.

Refer to RS-232 Mode Settings for details on setting RS-232 modes.

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)

Setup and Configuration

EDID Configuration

EDIDs can be configured to resolve issues with video output on displays that may not accept the maximum resolution available from the source.

• Ensure that a display is connected and powered On tto the selected output before copying EDIDs or the copy will fail. When this occurs, the EDID will be set to 4K @30Hz 2ch.
• Power to the extender must be cycled (Off/On) after changing dip switches in order for the setting to take effect

Note: Switches shown in gray can be in any position for the described function

EDID Copy (Default)		4K@30Hz/8bit only2ch audio without HDR
4K@60Hz 2ch audio without HDR		4K@30Hz 2ch audio with HDR
4K@60Hz 2ch audio with HDR		4K@30Hz 7.1ch audio with HDR
4K@60Hz 7.1ch audio with HDR		1080P@60Hz 2ch

Long Cable Mode

This extender can be set to allow for extending 2K HDBaseT signals up to 140m/459ft by setting Long Cable Mode On. We recommend that this mode is set to Off for cable runs of 100m/328ft or less. These settings apply to the Setting dipswitch located on the transmitter.

Note: Switches shown in gray can be in any position for the described function.

Long Cable Mode On

Long Cable Mode Off

RS-232 Mode Settings

The RS-232 connector is used to transmit RS-232 over HDBaseT to the remote location and for firmware updates. Ensure that the RS-232 Mode switch on the receiver and the Setting dipswitches on the transmitter are the proper position for the operation being performed.

Receiver RS-232 Mode Switch

Set the mode switch to Normal to transmit RS-232 signals from the TX to the RX for controlling devices in the remote location.
Set the mode switch to the Update position to install a firmware update in either the TX or RX.

Transmitter Setting Switch

RS-232 Pass-Through (DEFAULT)
HDBaseT Update

Note: Switches shown in gray can be in any position for the described function.

Troubleshooting

No or Poor Quality Picture (snow or noisy image)

• Verify that power is being supplied to the transmitter and receiving device.
• Verify that all HDMI and HDBaseT connections are not loose and are functioning properly.
• 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.
• Configure EDID Settings to a lower resolution. Refer to EDID Configuration for details.
• If transmitting 3D or 4K, verify that the HDMI cables used are 3D or 4K rated.

No or Intermittent 3rd party Device Control

• erify that the IR, RS-232, and Ethernet cables are properly terminated following the Wiring and Connections section.
• Verify that RS-232 modes are properly selected for the desired operation. Refer to RS-232 Mode Settings for details.

Troubleshooting Tips:

- WyreStorm recommends using a cable tester or connecting the cable to other devices to verify functionality.
