TRANSMITTER
Indicator Troubleshooting Lights on the Transmitter:
POWER – On the front:
(Red) This is an indicator that the power is connected. There are only two
states for light:
- Light Is On = The Power supply is connected and functioning.
- Light Is Off = Power supply is not connected or there is no power present. (To have power: check the power supply, USP, Outlet, etc…)
AV SYSTEM ACT – On the front:
- (Blue) This is an indicator of activity on the link – this light will blink randomly as data is sent/ received.
HDBaseT LINK – On the front:
- (Blue) This is an indicator that the RJ45 HDBaseT Link is stable. This light should always be SOLID.
HDMI SIGNAL STATUS – On the front:
- (Blue) This indicator shows that the HDMI source is connected.
The states are:
- Light Is On (Solid) = Sync w/ HDMI source is correct and solid.
- Light Is Flashing = The light flashes during the sync process. If it is flashing continuously, a picture may not be present.
If the BLUE HDMI SIGNAL STATUS LIGHT is flashing, check the following:
- The source. Plug it directly into the display to be sure it’s functioning properly.
- Try a longer HDMI cable. Some HDMI cables do not sync well at shorter lengths.
- Set the EDID to state #1 (See below).
- If these suggestions do not work, enable the “Test Pattern” (See Below). If you see the pattern, the problem is between the source and the transmitter, please try a different source.
- Contact AVProEdge if these suggestions do not work.
LINK – Above RJ45 (HDBT) Port:
(Green) This indicator shows that the AV HDBT link between the Tx and Rx is
intact. This light should ALWAYS be solid.
If this light is flashing or not present attempt the following:
- Check the length. The maximum distances are 70m (230ft) on 4K and 100m (330ft) on 1080P.
- Remove any coils of cable and make sure that there is no excess cabling.
- Bypass all patch panels and punch-down blocks.
- Re-terminate connectors. Sometimes, even if a cable tester indicates the run is valid, something may be slightly off.
- Standard RJ45 ends are recommended. Pass-through style types can cause interference/ crosstalk
- Contact AVProEdge if these suggestions do not work.
STATUS- Above RJ45 (HDBT) Port:
(Amber) This is an indicator showing that the power is present between the
Transmitter and Receiver. This light ALWAYS BLINKS steadily indicating
everything is OK. If you do not see this light, attempt the following:
- Check the length. The maximum distances are 70m (230ft) on 4K and 100m (330ft) on 1080P.
- Remove any coils of cable and make sure that there is no excess cabling.
- Bypass all patch panels and punch-down blocks.
- Re-terminate connectors. Sometimes, even if a cable tester indicates the run is valid, something may be just slightly off.
- Standard RJ45 ends are recommended. Pass-through style types can cause interference/ crosstalk
- Try powering from the Receiver instead of the Transmitter (See Receiver page for more about PoE direction).
- Contact AVProEdge if these steps do not work.
ETHERNET LIGHTS & USAGE
Ethernet usage is very straightforward. It is used for driving network communication over the HDbaseT link. The purpose of these ports is to act as a “Hub”, if you plug one port into a router all the other ports on both the Tx & Rx now have access to the network.
Usage Examples:
- Supplying a hardwire Ethernet connection to video zones for on-device streaming and/or local gaming devices and players.
- Supplying server-based content from a server to a remote display.
- Supplying a zone with a hardwired Ethernet connection for a Wi-Fi access point in remote zones.
Usage is plug-&-play – the ports are always active and so long as ONE of the FOUR combined ports between the Tx and Rx is connected to the network the other three have access.
Ethernet Indicator Lights:
- AMBER – This indicates an Ethernet connection is made, and the connection is stable. This should be SOLID.
- GREEN – This indicates that there is activity on the line. This light flashes randomly as data is transmitted. If this light is steady OFF no data is coming through or you may need to reset the Ethernet router.
Functions & Setup of the Transmitter
IR Mode Slide Switch: (On Front) This is used to select a preferred IR Mode –
There are two modes:
- IR-EYE – The IR Input will be configured to operate with an IR Receiver Eye.
- I-PASS – The IR Input will be configured to safely operate with a direct connection from a control system using a mono or stereo 3.5mm cable. It’s protected @ 3v-20v. The default mode is IR-EYE.
Using the Setting Button:
(On Front) The setting button can be pressed in different combinations based
on what is needed. The status light on the front will flash based on the
selection. The selections are in series, meaning, for example, if you are on
selection 5 (listed below), you can come back later and press it again to move
you to 6, 7, 8, 1, 2, etc… Using an ink pen is best to press the button.
The SETTING BUTTON is located just to the symbol, and the SETTING INDICATOR LED is just the right of the to the left of the symbol.

COPY DEVICE EDID
While in the USER EDID state (8), press and hold the setting button (for 4
seconds) to copy the EDID from the connected display or downstream device to
the user EDID and it will apply automatically.
Why do this?
This is commonly used when there is a need for a specific, known EDID that the
installer may prefer. It can also be used if you want to bypass an EDID of an
AVR or another connected device. (IE, plug the extender kit directly into a
display and COPY the EDID. Plug it back into an AVR that may not have a
current/good EDID).
Scaler Setting:
While in ANY state besides the USER EDID state, press and hold the setting
button (for 4 seconds) to toggle the scaler mode.
The options are:
- Normal Mode(ICT Mode) — LED Flashes 1 Time
- Down Scaler Mode (4K->2K) — LED Flashes 2 Times

Functions & Setup of the Receiver:
POE Slide Switch
(On Front)
This is used to select how you want PoE to be directed. There are two options (you are choosing where the power is ORIGINATING from):
- TX (Default)= You will need to power the TRANSMITTER, the receiver will be powered over the CAT Cable (Default).
- RX = You will need to power the RECEIVER, the transmitter will be powered over the CAT Cable from the receiver (This is called “Reverse Power”).
Using the Setting Button:
(On Front) The SETTING BUTTON is located just to the left of the POE switch.
This button can be used to enable/disable the built-in Test Pattern Generator.
Test Pattern Generator:
Press and hold the setting button (for 4 seconds) while powering up the
receiver. If you are powering from the transmitter side to power cycle the
receiver unplug the HDBaseT Category cable. You should see the color bar
pattern appear on the right of the screen. When in this mode, you can quickly
press the settings button to toggle the two resolutions. To Disable, power
cycle the receiver.
Quick press the setting button—Select the test pattern timing.
- 080P — LED Flashes 1 Time (3 sets of color bars, example below)
- 4K — LED Flashes 2 Times (5 sets of color bars, example below)
- NOTE: This can be useful for checking your cabling and for troubleshooting. You can also ensure you have sufficient distance based on the resolution as well.
Test Pattern Generator (GEN-2):
Quick press the Setting button to cycle through test patterns of 1080p, 4k,
and OFF. The test patterns can be used for stand-alone testing as long as the
Receiver is powered. If the Receiver is powered off while the test pattern is
enabled, it will still generate a test pattern once it is powered on again. Be
sure to disable the test pattern on the Receiver before powering it off.
RS-232 CONFIGURATION
RS-232 can be used to pass control signals bi-directionally to & from any RS-232-compatible device. This is commonly used to route control signals in the following way:
- Control System –> Display/Projector (ie, Power On/Off)
- Display/Projector –> Control System (ie, Display Status, Volume Status, etc…)
- When ultra-long-range serial communication is needed (think concerts, live events). Use the extender.
- The unit comes with 3-pin connectors to allow for any wire an integrator would like. The pinout configuration Left=TX, Center=Ground, Right=RX and looks like this:
- This is how the cable should look. If using the AC-CABLE-3.5-DB9F (Female) or AC-CABLE-3.5-DB9M (Male), the colors will be the same. With any other cable, please follow Tx, G, and Rx as shown below.
- See the RS-232 cable preparation diagram on the next page.
RS-232 CABLE FOR AVPRO EDGE
TO CONNECT YOUR COMPUTER TO THE SWITCH BY RS-232 YOU NEED TO MAKE YOUR CABLE
WITH ONE ENO PHOENIX CONNECTOR ANI AND THE OTHER ENDA RS-232 PORT. YOUR
COMPUTER DOESN’T HAVE A IS-232 INPUT. GET A USB CONVERTER (AS SHOWN BELOW),
AND PLUG THE ISB ENE TO ANY COMPUTER.
RS-232 Sample Application
IR CONFIGURATION
IR can be used in three ways:
- From Rack (Control System Direct)
- Plug a MONO 3.5mm cable into an emitter port of any control system directly into the “IR IN” port on the AC-EX40-444 Transmitter to pass IR signals directly to the remote end.
- NOTE – Be sure the IR MODE Slide Switch is set to “I-PASS” on the Transmitter
- From Rack (Using IR-EYE)
- Plug a receiver eye into the “IR IN” of the AC-EX40-444 Transmitter to pass infrared signals generated from a device or IR Remote.
- NOTE – Be sure the IR MODE Slide Switch is set to “IR-EYE” on the Transmitter.
- From Remote End
- Use an IR-Receiver Eye on the AC-EX40-444 Receiver (IR In Port) to send IR signals BACK to the rack and out of the TRANSMITTER IR Out Port with an emitter.

Audio Extraction
Audio Extraction on AC-EX70-444
A feature that is always active on the AC-EX70-444 (Tx and Rx) is Audio
Extraction. This feature extracts PCM Audio (2ch) from the source device to be
run to a separate amplifier or AVR. BOTH of the audio ports are always active
(on Tx & Rx). NOTE – These ports ONLY work if the source is 2ch. If downmixing
is needed, check out AC-AVDM-AUHD or AC-ADM-COTO.
To use the ports:
- Simply plug a 3-pin terminal block into the port on the Tx or Rx (both are always active) and make your cable assembly.
- There is an option to buy pre-made unbalanced 3-pin to RCA Female cables from www.avprostore.com
NOTE:
The source device needs to output PCM audio for the feature to work. This can
be done by using the on-board EDID management or setting the source as such.
