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 using pre-terminated HDMI and USB 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.
• This product contains a USB-C connection that can be used as an audio/ video input. When using this connection verify that the USB-C cable used supports audio/video functionality as not all USB-C cables support this requirement.

RS-232 Wiring

The SW-120-TX3-Ux 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.

• Baud Rate: 115200
• Byte: 8bits
• Pairty: No
• Stop Bit: 1
  Note: The RS-232 port is software driven which allows the SW-120-TX3-Ux to distinguish between a self-switching command or whether a routed, device control command is being sent over HDBaseT

Audio Connections

The audio connections use a 3.5mm (1/8in) TRS Stereo Jack.

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, USB 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.
  • If transmitting 4K, verify that the HDMI cables used are 4K rated.
• No or Intermittent 3rd party Device Control
  Verify that the RS-232 cables are properly terminated following the Wiring and Connections section.
