IN1608 xi • Setup Guide (Continued)
Mounting and Cabling
Step 1 — Mount the device
a.
Turn off or disconnect all equipment power.
b.
Mount IN1608 xi scaler to a rack using the
pre-installed rack ears, or use an optional
mounting kit for under-desk mounting (see the
two images at right).
The IN1608 xi comes in a 1U, full rack width
enclosure (shown in the examples at right). All
other IN1608 xi models come in 2U, full rack
width enclosures.
Step 2 — Connect inputs
a.
Connect analog video sources to the VGA connectors (see figure 1,
b.
Connect digital HDMI or DVI (with an appropriate adapter) sources to the HDMI connectors (
c.
Connect a DTP transmitter to the DTP input connectors (
Recommendations for DTP and HDBaseT Communication
Signal LED — Lights green when the unit is receiving an active video signal from a DTP transmitter.
Link LED — Lights amber when a valid link is established to a DTP transmitter.
d.
To pass serial or infrared data, connect the control device to the RS-232 and IR Over DTP captive screw connectors
(see
RS-232 and IR Over TP Wiring
endpoint via Ethernet (see the IN1608 xi Series User Guide for more information).
e.
Connect analog audio sources to the inputs via the 5-pole captive screw connectors (
page for more information.)
f.
Connect Mic/Line audio sources to the inputs via the 3-pole captive screw connectors (
Step 3 — Connect outputs
a.
Set the twisted pair switch (
HDBT — Set the twisted pair switch to the Up position to set the twisted pair connector for HDBaseT
•
communication. The switch returns to the middle position after.
DTP — Set the twisted pair switch to the Down position to set the twisted pair connector for DTP communication.
•
b.
Connect an DTP/HDBaseT-compatible device to the HDBT output connector (
recommendations, see
Signal LED — Lights green when the scaler is outputting active video.
Link LED — Lights amber when a valid link is established between the scaler and the DTP/HDBaseT sink.
c.
To pass serial or infrared data, connect a control device to the RS-232 and IR Over DTP captive screw connector (see
RS-232 and IR Over TP Wiring
endpoint via Ethernet (see the IN1608 xi Series User Guide for more information).
d.
Connect suitable video displays to the HDMI connectors (
e.
Connect analog audio devices to the outputs via the 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors (
on the next page for more information.
f.
For SA and MA models, connect speakers to the Amplified Output via the 5 mm 4-pole or 2-pole captive screw
K
connector (
).
Step 4 — Connect control devices
a.
To control non-IPCP models through Ethernet, connect a LAN or WAN to the LAN connector (see
IPCP models, connect a LAN or WAN to any of the LAN connectors on the IPCP Pro control processor (
IP address of the scaler is 192.168.254.254. The default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
b.
For serial RS-232 control, connect a host device to the 3-pole captive screw connector (
9600.
c.
For control through USB, connect a host device to the front panel USB mini-B port (see figure 2,
