  • Page 6 -orange indicates audio and video (AFV, namely Audio Follows Video). 5.1.1 Switching time setup from keypad: The TZM443 features the “through blank” switching mode. The switching time is user- adjustable to permit the perfect matching with the destination device. This important feature prevents annoying effects coming from LCDs when switching a signal to their input.
  • Page 7 5.2 Keypad Setups By pressing a combination of keys, different commands and setups are possible for the TZM443 unit. In addition, it is possible to store 3 machine status presets and to recall them at a subsequent time. It is also possible to store a default configuration so that the machine will start up with a particular setup.
  • Page 8: Infrared Remote Control

    PLEASE NOTE The reception from the remote control can be enabled and disabled by holding down (during startup) the MODE button on the front panel of the TZM443. The TZM443 has been factory-set with remote control enabled The following functions can be carried out with the infrared remote control: Save + IN 1÷4...
  • Page 9: Control From Computer Via Rs232

    4x4 HIGH RES. & AUDIO MATRIX 7.0 CONTROL FROM COMPUTER VIA RS232 All functions of the TZM443 matrix can be controlled by sending or receiving hexadecimal and/or ASCII character strings via a computer. The dialogue via RS232 includes the following procedure:...
  • Page 10 Example: to switch the video of input 1 and the audio of input 3 to output 4, it is necessary to send the following characters in line: 42 30 34 30 31 30 33 0D The TZM443 matrix will respond: (Hex 06) if the control has been executed correctly NACK (Hex 15) if it has found incorrect transmission errors 7.3 Video switching command.
  • Page 11 Example: In order to bring the audio 2 output to 0 volt, it is necessary to send the following characters in line: 41 30 32 30 30 0D The TZM443 matrix will respond: (Hex 06) if the control has been executed correctly NACK (Hex 15) if it has found incorrect transmission errors 7.5 Status Request...
  • Page 12: Note

    4x4 HIGH RES. & AUDIO MATRIX 7.6 Creating a preset The TZM443 can create and execute up to 8 internal presets. A preset is a predetermined configuration of 8 switching points, 4 video and 4 audio, which are stored and can be recalled at any time.
  • Page 13 (from Hex 30 to Hex 39) Example: If the firmware release of the TZM443 is 1.0, the matrix will respond: 69 5A 30 0D 7.9 Global mode Request In addition to the configuration of the audio and video crosspoints, the GLOBAL MODE request allows you to know some machine conditions described below.
  • Page 14 1 = 0.5 sec. 2 = 1 sec. 3 = 2 sec. The TZM443 matrix will respond: (Hex 06) if the control has been executed correctly NACK (Hex 15) if it has found incorrect transmission errors Example: in order to set up the through blank switching time to 1 second relative to output 3, it is necessary to send the following characters in line: 57 30 33 32 0D 7.11 Through blank switching time request...
  • Page 15 X indicates if output 4 must be used as Preview: 1 = output 4 is the preview 0 = output 4 is a normal output The TZM443 matrix will respond: (Hex 06) if the control has been executed correctly NACK (Hex 15) if it has found incorrect transmission errors...
  • Page 16 NACK (Hex 15) if it has found incorrect transmission errors Example: in order to program the TZM443, connected as a unit with address 4, baud rate at 2400 bit/secs and a response time of 80 milliseconds, it is necessary to send the...
  • Page 17 The transmission protocol is of the multipoint master/slave type: the TZM443s are the slave machines, whereas the host which controls them is the master machine. Up to 8 TZM443 units, identified by addresses 0 – 7, can be connected to the 485 Bus. The serial connection features are:...
  • Page 18 Connections must be made with a cable according to the attached diagram: Caution If several units are daisy chained the 100 ohm termination must be placed on the last unit ELPRO Video Labs s.r.l.
