Page 5: Introduction
Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the NeoPro audio/video matrix switch. The NeoPro family of matrix switches features component video and both analog and digital audio signal routing with a variety of features, including: System Control Serial control via RS232 or USB ports •... -

Fig.1 and the table below. Do not use any other type of CAT5 balun with the NeoPro matrix, as they may cause damage to the matrix and the NeoPro baluns, which is not covered by the NeoPro warranty. The common standards... -
Page 8: Grounding Requirements
* The 24 Vdc return is not connected to “ground” or “common”. Grounding Requirements NeoPro CAT5 matrix switches (using NeoPro Hornets) are designed to operate with CAT5 cable runs up to 1000 ft. (305 m). The Hornet uses a patented automatic gain circuit to achieve true high definition video. -

Page 10: Operation
Operation Overview The NeoPro matrix can be controlled via IR (built in sensor or wired input on rear panel) and serial port (RS232/USB). 8x4 or 8x8 matrices (Fig.2) can also be controlled via the front panel. 8x16, 12x8 or 12x16 matrices cannot be switched via the front panel, so they have a slightly different front panel button set (Fig.3). -
Page 11: Ir Remote Control
IR Remote Control Figure 4 shows the layout of the NeoPro IR Remote. Controlling the matrix switch via the rear IR jack is the same as using the NeoPro IR Remote. Discrete IR Codes Discrete IR Codes allow you to minimize IR codes sent from program macros when doing switching and volume commands. -
Page 12: Dual Function Keys
For example, on a 12x8 matrix, to choose input number 12, you would press (or use the IR code) for the F2 key. Fig. 4: NeoPro IR Remote Power Via Front Panel A single touch of the power button turns the unit on. To prevent an accidental power down, two button presses are required to shut down the matrix (places matrix into Standby Mode). -

The volume control ranges from 0 to 99. At level 99, the output level equals the input level for a unity gain. For bass and treble, 50 is used for a “flat” frequency response. Maximum is 99 and minimum is 00. DOC42-00027-C Integrator's Guide.doc... -

A command is always wrapped in square braces: [command] It is not necessary to follow the command by any carriage returns or other special characters. The closing brace will trigger the switch to process the command. DOC42-00027-C Integrator's Guide.doc... -
Page 18: Group Commands
The response will be in curly brackets { }, like in a group command, and can be used as a command back to the matrix or be used as an input to memory edit function. DOC42-00027-C Integrator's Guide.doc... -
Page 19: Errors
Any command with invalid parameters or a syntax error will result in a response Switching Protocol Note: Some NeoPro matrix switch models do not have all these features and will display the error [E] response when such a command is received. Refer to the Model Specific Features section for details. -
Page 20: Audio Transition Time
For lower volumes, the matrix switch will not wait for the time to expire, which means switching can happen faster once the target volume is reached. Volume Only Commands Please check the Features section to ensure your NeoPro model has this feature. These commands only affect analog audio. The Volume command format is: [mL,f,n]... -
