Chapter 1: Introduction

Overview

At times multiple AV signals need to be transferred to multiple nearby output monitors. The HDTV Router allows multiple VGA/audio inputs to be routed to multiple outputs simultaneously, by way of a direct connection into the router.

The HDTV Router is a high-quality switching matrix for VGA type signals. All signal formats are catered for including VGA, SVGA, XGA, RGBHV and sync on green (SOG) applications. For ease of installation, Standard VGA connectors (HD15 sockets) are used for the input as well as the output video signal. All that is required is a standard pin-to-pin VGA cable to connect to the signal source.

Stereo audio can also be routed to multiple outputs. The audio can either be routed independently or together with the video signal using the SmartControl software that is very easy to use.

Note: for maximum signal performance, use only high quality cable that has internal coaxial cable for each color.

The units contain a very high bandwidth routing matrix for the Red, Green and Blue video channels.

Chapter 2: Installation

Connecting the HDTV Router (Detailed Instructions)

Video and Audio Inputs

The video input for the HDTV Router is a standard HD15 connection.

Connect all of the Input video sources to the back of the HDTV Router unit.

Hint: You may want to label the input video connections so as not to lose track of where the signal is coming from. Later on when the software is installed you will be able to give each connection a name and the software will remember it for you. This way you can switch the video connections without having to look at the physical connections on the back of the unit. (You can also use the included page at the end of this manual in order to keep track of the connections as you make them.)

The audio inputs for the HDTV Router are standard 3.5 mm Stereo Miniplug connectors.

Connect all of the audio inputs to the back of the HDTV Router unit. Many computer audio sources use this standard connection but there is other equipment such as receivers, and VCRs where a special adapter cable will be needed. Such as a 3.5mm miniplug to stereo RCA cable.

Make sure that the audio and video are coming from the same source and are plugged the same input number. For example, if the audio from one computer is connected to input 1, then the video should also be connected to input 1.

Video and Audio Outputs

The video and audio connections for the HDTV Router outputs are exactly the same. The only difference is that they are located on the left side of the back panel

Connect all of the external video monitors and corresponding speakers to the output connections located on the back of the SuperMatrix unit.

Chapter 3: Software Installation & Operation

Find the Installation CD that came with your HDTV Router unit. This CD has the SmartControl software that you will need in order to control the unit using a computer.

Insert the CD into your CD-ROM. On the CD you should see:

SmartControl Installer.exe

SmartControl Help File •

HDTV Router Manual in PDF format •

Double click SmartControl.exe in order to initiate software installation. Click Install. After installation has completed, click CLOSE.

In order to use the software, click on the START button>Programs>SmartControl. There you should see a help file, the SmartControl launcher as well as a shortcut to uninstall SmartControl. Click on SmartControl in order to launch the software.

When the software starts you will see a screen like this.

Configure Router Router Count 1 Advanced Configuration Reset Advanced Configuration Router Type A/V Split Inputs Outputs 00 SuperMatrix 16 16 Com Port Router Timeout Comm Type COM1 0.2 seconds Type B Cancel OK

Advanced Configuration: If you have more than one Router installed you will want to check this box.

Router Type: Select SuperMatrix.

A/V Split: Check this box if you need to route audio and video independently, regardless from which source they originated from. Leave unchecked if you want audio and video signals from the same input to remain together.

For example, if you wanted to route different video feeds to different locations but wanted all of them to have the same audio, you should check the box.

Chapter 3: Software Installation & Operation

Inputs/Outputs: Enter the number of Inputs/Outputs your HDTV Router has. For now we will assume that there are 16 inputs and 16 outputs.

Com Port: Select the appropriate com port that your computer is using to access the router.

Router Timeout: By default this is 0 meaning the computer acknowledges commands almost instantly. Sometimes a computer takes longer to respond. This setting should be left at 0. If you need to change it, it should be no higher than 0.2.

After you have entered in the necessary information click OK.

This will now take you to the Main Routing Window where you can route the different video/audio connections.

On this screen you will notice the input buttons running down the left side while the output buttons run across the top. They are each labeled 1 through 16.

Note: The three small colored buttons at the lower right labeled ALL, VIDEO, and AUDIO are not available if AV Split was not checked when you configured your router.

Chapter 3: Software Installation & Operation

The Main Routing Window enables you to control the router(s) connections by means of the matrix panel, the button panel, or with pre-recorded routes called macros.

Matrix Panel: This is probably the simplest way to route the connections. Simply click on the cross point itself. The input on the left will then be routed to the output above.

Note: Inputs can be routed to several different outputs, but each output can only have a single input at any one time. So you can have several connections horizontally but not vertically.

The Button Panel: These are the numbered buttons across the top and left sides. Click an output button on the top, and then click an input button on the left.

Options for using the Button Panel

Output Options: •

To select multiple outputs next to each other, click on one output, then hold the shift key down and click the last output. When the input is clicked, it is routed to all selected outputs

To select multiple outputs individually, hold the control key down and click on any number of outputs. When the input is clicked, it is routed to all selected outputs.

Input Options: •

To route an input to all the outputs at once, hold the control key down and click on an input.

To leave the outputs selected after the route is made, hold the shift key down and click on an input.

Chapter 3: Software Installation & Operation

Macros: This section of the window is used to save and play back macros. Macros store a set sequence of routes.

To record a macro:

Click on the Record button (last button shown above). A blinking "recording" message below 1. this button will be displayed to indicate that all routes are being recorded.

Select the desired cross points. (See Matrix Routing for details on making these routes.) There is 2. no limit on the number of routes you may record.

If you click a macro button while in the record mode, the macro will be executed, and these 3. routes will be added to the recording. This makes it possible to combine the routes of two or more macros into one bigger macro.

When finished, click the "Save Macro" button. You will be instructed to then click on one of the 4. macro buttons. Doing this will save the recorded routes to that button.

To cancel saving the macro, click the "Cancel Save" button.

To play back a macro, simply click on one of the 50 macro buttons. Use the scrollbar to bring 5. any of these into view.

The macros are automatically saved in the current configuration file. They are also saved when 6. you select the File/Save Configuration... menu.

To save macros in a separate file for a special purpose, select the File/Save Macros...menu.

"0" Through "9" ChrAsc|sChar - 48) Subtract 48 from ASCII value of character
"A" Through "Z"Chr{Asc|sChar} - 53) Subtract53 from ASCII value of character
"a" Through "z"ChrAsc|sChar - 55) Subtract55 from ASCII value of character
"."Chr{&H27}Substitute the character "." for ASCII value 0x27
" " {space}Chr&H0bSubstitute the character " " for ASCII value 0x0b
"."Chr{&H26}Substitute the character " " for ASCII value 0x26
