Operating and Controlling the MTX3-88-SE

Principles of Operation

This section covers the following topics:

• Matrix Operation Modes on page 11.
- Routing IP-Driven Control Signals via Built-in Control Gateway on page 11.

Matrix Operation Modes

MTX3-88-SE has 2 major operation modes:

  • Matrix mode – Seamless switching, with clean “cut” transition, of any matrix input to any matrix output. Matrix mode is the default operation mode. Switching operation actions, via panel buttons and webpages, are immediately affecting matrix routing and displayed output signals. For switching operation via matrix web-pages, see Switching an Input to an Output in the Matrix Mode on page 12.
  • Multi-View mode – Multiple window layouts for viewing multiple input signals on various output ports, as flexibly set via matrix management web pages, and operated by end user via control. Multi-view mode and selected windows layout settings and activation is done via the embedded web pages, control, or matrix panel buttons. Windows layout settings are applicable for displayed output signals during related multi-view layout activation only. For multi-view windows layout settings, see Selecting a Windows Layout in the Multi-View Mode on page 12.

Routing IP-Driven Control Signals via Built-in Control Gateway

Remote IP connected clients can send from the LAN, via the MTX3-88-SE matrix built-in control gateway, RS-232 commands, and receive responses and notifications, to control devices connected to MTX3-88-SE matrix RS-232 control port. The built-in control gateway sends the control commands (converted from the client received IP messages) to the connected controlled devices, and distributes the responses received from the connected controlled devices to all connected clients.

Built-in control gateway setting is done via the MTX3-88-SE matrix control gateway webpages.

Operating the Device using the Device Panel Buttons

Perform the following actions using the front and rear panel buttons:

• Using Front and Rear Panel Buttons on page 12.
- Switching an Input to an Output in the Matrix Mode on page 12.

  • Selecting a Windows Layout in the Multi-View Mode on page 12.
    • Storing and Recalling an Operation Preset on page 13.
  • Configuring IR and RS-232 over HDBT on page 14.

Using Front and Rear Panel Buttons

MTX3-88-SE front and rear panel buttons enable the following actions:

  • Routing an INPUT to an OUTPUT in Matrix Mode.
  • Selecting from one of the Multi-View Mode Configurations
  • Configuring the IR and RS-232 operation mode
    • Storing and Recalling a Preset

Switching an Input to an Output in the Matrix Mode

The MTX3-88-SE matrix mode is the default operation mode. Any of the 8 inputs can be switched to any of the 8 outputs. Switching is immediate and seamless see Connecting MTX3-88-SE on page 9.

Kramer MTX3-88-SE - Switching an Input to an Output in the Matrix Mode - 1

If you're in MULTI-VIEW, (one of the MULTI-VIEW buttons are lit) press any lit MULTI-VIEW button to return to Matrix mode.

To switch an input to an output via the front panel buttons:

  1. Verify that the matrix mode 8x8 matrix indication is activated. For further details (see Selecting the Desired Operation Mode on page 24)
  2. On the front panel, press an output and then an input, or multiple inputs, to switch to the selected output.
  3. Selected inputs are switched to the output.

Selecting a Windows Layout in the Multi-View Mode

Select the multi-view windows layout, which activates the matrix multi-view mode too. Multiple windows, on multiple output ports, view multiple input signals, as associated to each layout window via the embedded web pages settings.

To select the windows layout in multi-view mode:

  1. Press a multi-view front panel button to set one- of the following multi-view mode window layouts:

The input signals, viewed in each multi-view windows layout, are set by default as follows: Input 1 to Window 1, Input 2 to Window 2, Input 3 to Window 3 and Input 4 to Window 4. Assigning a different input to a window association is via the embedded web pages (see Multi-View Operation Mode Settings on page 27)

Storing and Recalling an Operation Preset

Store and recall operation presets via the INPUT selection front panel buttons or via the P3K commands (see Protocol 3000 Commands on page 64w).

Input selection buttons 1 to 8 can store 8 matrix operation presets, which can be recalled when needed.

Each operation preset stores:

• The AV Routing configuration.
- The matrix operation mode (matrix or multi-view operation modes).
• Video output signals saturation, contrast and brightness.
- Output displays borders, labels and their properties (for example, color and background color).
- Audio output signals settings (for example, mute state and volume settings).

Kramer MTX3-88-SE - Storing and Recalling an Operation Preset - 1

Last active operation preset is recalled following power up.

Storing an Operation Preset

You can store 4 operation presets via the front panel input selection buttons (1 to 4).

To store an operation preset:

  1. Set the matrix to the desired operation preset configuration.
  2. Press STO. The STO button lights.
  3. Press a storing input button (1 to 4).

The operation preset configuration is stored on the selected input button.

Recalling an Operation Preset

You can recall a stored operation preset from any of the 4 front panel input selection buttons (1 to 4).

To recall an operation preset:

  1. Press RCL. The RCL button lights.
  2. Press an input selection button (1 to 4) to select the desired operation preset configuration.

The device will perform reset, and the selected operation preset is recalled and activated.

Configuring IR and RS-232 over HDBT

Use the DIP switches together with the Data Routing webpage to configure the routing path for extending RS-232 and IR over the HDBT.

See (Figure 6): Each of the RS-232 and IR data signals may be configured for extension between HDBT (RJ-45) ports (⑫ and ⑮), or between an

HDBT port (⑫ or ⑮), and a panel (Terminal Block) port (⑭).

Connecting Ethernet Port via a Network Switch

You can connect the Ethernet port of MTX3-88-SE to the Ethernet port on a network switch or router using a straight-through cable with RJ-45 connectors.

Configuring Ethernet Port

You can set the Ethernet parameters via the embedded Web pages.

Discovering and acquiring IP address

MTX3-88-SE includes IP address auto-acquiring policy via LAN-connected DHCP server by default. When no DHCP server is detected, a fallback static IP address of 192.168.1.39, and 255.255.255.0 subnet mask (class C), is assigned until an IP address is acquired via the DHCP server.

Restarting and Resetting the Device

Two types of resets can be performed:

  • Restart – Reboots your device and keeps all your device settings, including the IP address and password.
  • Reset – Reboots your device and restores all factory settings including input/output definitions, switching configuration, IP address and password (a DHCP-acquired IP address is retained).

To restart the device:

  1. Click DEVICE RESTART on the Device > General page (Figure 45).
  2. Click CONTINUE.

Protocol 3000

Kramer devices can be operated using Kramer Protocol 3000 commands sent via serial or Ethernet ports.

Understanding Protocol 3000

Protocol 3000 commands are a sequence of ASCII letters, structured according to the following.

- Command format:

PrefixCommand NameConstant (Space)Parameter(s)Suffix
#Command-Parameter

- Feedback format:

PrefixDevice IDConstantCommand NameParameter(s)Suffix
~nn@CommandParameter
  • Command parameters – Multiple parameters must be separated by a comma (,). In addition, multiple parameters can be grouped as a single parameter using brackets ([ and ]).
  • Command chain separator character – Multiple commands can be chained in the same string. Each command is delimited by a pipe character (|).
  • Parameters attributes – Parameters may contain multiple attributes. Attributes are indicated with pointy brackets (<...>) and must be separated by a period (.).

The command framing varies according to how you interface with MTX3-88-SE. The following figure displays how the # command is framed using terminal communication software (such as Hercules):
