4K-866 USER MANUAL V1.0 6 ACCESSORIES 6.1 INFRA-RED RECEIVERS (IR RX) The infra-red receiver for the 866 range consists of a photo diode at one end and a 3.5mm stereo jack on the other. The photo diode accepts infra-red signals from an infra-red emitting handset and the 3.5mm jack takes this signal to the TX or RX866 to the 3.5mm socket as indicated below.
4K-866 USER MANUAL V1.0 6.2 INFRA-RED TRANSMITTERS (IR TX) The infra-red transmitter for the 866 range consists of an infra-red emitting diode at one end and a 3.5mm stereo jack at the other. The 3.5mm stereo jacks takes infra-red signals from the 866 device and send them to the IR emitting diode, the IR emitting diode should then be attached in close proximity of the IR receiver of the device you wish to control.
4K-866 USER MANUAL V1.0 6.3 RS232 PLUGS Each 866 device is supplied with a 3-pin phoenix screw lock plug to insert in to the receptacle on the 866 as indicated below. The pin out is indicated on the silk screen of the 866 device, you should strip back approximately 10mm of cable and then secure by screwing in to the appropriate space of the screw lock plug.
Above is a picture of the 24V power supply sent with each individual TX or RX 866 unit when purchased individually, if items are purchased as a pair (4K-866) then one unit will be sent to power both units through PoC.
1. Test the CATx cables to be used for HDBaseT link and if required Ethernet. This can be achieved with a cable tester, optionally you could purchase a 4K-9000 HDBaseT tester from Smart-e which is purpose built to test for HDBaseT installations. Ensure cables are terminated correctly and preferably to the specification as outlined in section 9 of this manual.
4K-866 USER MANUAL V1.0 8 STATUS LEDS 8.1 HDBASET LINK LED A HDBaseT indicator LED is located next to the RJ45 HDBaseT connector on both the TX and RX variants of the 866. This is the primary indication to show the CATx cable used is suitable to enable the TX and RX devices to communicate with one another.
A HDMI compliant source outputs a +5V signal, this signal is detected by a HDMI compliant screen and it responds with a Hot-Plug Detect +5V signal to tell the source a screen is attached. The 4K-866 can handle this mechanism at both the TX and RX end.
Smart-e support immediately. HDBaseT signals can be susceptible to noise, causing image loss or snowy effects on output screens. The best way to mitigate against these problems is by using a high quality CATx cable. Smart-e specify cable as below.
