Basic Wiring Diagram

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 the 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 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.

RS-232 Wiring

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.

Audio Wiring

This matrix contains audio connections for Digital Audio.

This matrix contains audio connections for Analog Audio.

Setup and Configuration

Accessing the Web UI
This matrix uses an Auto IP method to generate the initial IP address based on the network connections. By default, the IP address is set to DHCP and will pull the IP address from a connected DHCP server. Should the network not contain a DHCP server the IP address will be generated based on the unit’s mac address.
The above operation will occur unless the IP Address setting in the web UI is set to static.

1. Connect the matrix to the same network as a PC.
2. Using a 3rd party network scanner, scan the network for the IP address of the matrix.
3. Open a web browser and enter the IP Address of the matrix.
4. Enter the password for the matrix. Default Password: admin

IP Address Notes

• The IP address of the unit can be displayed by pressing and holding the Up and Down buttons on the front panel for 3 seconds. The IP address will be displayed on the front panel.
• The installer password and general password are the same by default. WyreStorm recommends changing the password for installer login to avoid any unwanted changes being made to the matrix configuration.

Low Power Mode (Standby)

This matrix contains a Low Power Mode that will place the unit into Standby using less power than the normal operating mode. While in this mode the Front Panel display and LEDs will be Off and outputs will be powered down. Once a command is sent via the Front Panel buttons, IR remote/control system, or RS-232/ IP control system the unit will wake from Standby and be fully operational. The unit can be placed back on standby via the Web UI or by sending an API command as described in the following sections.

Enabling Low Power Mode via Web UI

1. Access the Web UI. Refer to Accessing the Web UI.
2. Navigate to the Settings tab within the Admin section of the Web UI. The default password is admin.
3. Under Low Power Mode, select On to enable.

Enabling via RS-232/IP
Refer to the products API document for information on Com port and IP address settings.

• To place the unit into Standby send the command STANDBY.
• To remove the unit from Standby send the command WAKE.
• To query the current Standby state send the command GET STANDBY.

Troubleshooting

No or Poor-Quality Audio or Video (snow or noisy image)

• Verify that A/V mute is not enabled. Check Web UI for status on the selected output.
• Verify that the matrix is not in Standby. Refer to Low Power Mode (Standby) for details.
• Verify that power is being supplied to the source and receiving device and they are not in standby mode
• Verify that all HDMI connections are not loose and are functioning properly.
• Verify that the output resolution of the source and display is supported by this matrix and receiver.
• If transmitting 3D or 4K, verify that suitable HDMI cables are being used.

No or Intermittent 3rd party Device Control

• Verify that the IR and RS-232 cables are properly terminated following the Wiring and Connections section.
• Change the matrix IR code set in order to avoid interference with other devices. Refer to IR Code Settings.

Troubleshooting Tips:

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