Wyre Storm RX-70-PP Quick Start Manual

Single cable HD Display Receiver with bidirectional IR,
routed serial control
Part Number
RX-70-PP
Connect an HDMI source (such as Blu-Ray, games console, satellite/
1
cable, media server etc.) to an HDBaseT transmission device (such as
a WyreStorm HDBaseT transmitter, AMP-001-010 Digital Amplifier or
MX-PP-POH matrix solution).
Connect a good quality, well-terminated Cat5e/6 cable of no more
2
than 70m/230ft in length between the UTP/HDBaseT output of the
transmission device to the UTP Input of the RX-70-PP.
70m/230ft is the maximum recommended transmission distance
!
for this classification of HDBaseT equipment and denotes perfect
transmission conditions - including straight cable runs with no
electrical interference, bends, kinks, patch panels or wall outlets.
If any of the above is a factor in your installation, transmission
range may be affected – take care to avoid where possible.
Connect the HDMI sink (LED/LCD display or digital projector) to the
3
HDMI Output of the RX-70-PP.
We strongly recommend using supplied mounting brackets to
!
secure the receiver to a flat surface behind/near the sink device.
Sudden movement of these devices could lead to loss of picture/
sound if connections become loose or strained, resulting in
unnecessary service call-backs.
NOTE: If daisy-chaining receivers, repeat process for all RX-70-
PP units connected to HDBaseT transmission devices.
Connect the 12v power supply included to the RX-70-PP and power on
4
source, HDBaseT transmission and display devices.
Check POWER, STATUS & LINK lights are illuminated on the RX-70-PP
to indicate a successful connection, with a lit HDCP light illustrating the
presence of encryption within the signal.
Note: We do not recommend passing remote power from the
transmission device to the RX-70-PP - local power is required at the
display point.
Signal IR/RS232 Control Connection
For two-way IR control of connected sources and displays from either
5
location, first, connect IR TX transmitters to the IR TX ports of the
HDBaseT transmitter device and RX-70-PP.
Firmly attach the IR TX emitter eye directly over the infrared receiving
6
sensors of the device to be controlled. Location of the emitter eye
on the device may need to be adjusted later to achieve best IR
performance.
If unsure of positioning, IR sensors can be located on devices by
!
shining a flashlight onto the facia of the device - the IR sensor
should be identifiable as a small round sensor behind the panel.
Consult your device manufacturer handbook if difficulties are
experienced.
WyreStorm Quickstart Guide
Extending HDMI using Cat5e/6 to 70m/230ft
Insert IR receivers into IR RX ports of the RX-70-PP and HDBaseT
7
transmission device
For serial control an IR Link cable should be used to connect from the
8
IR RX port of the HDBaseT transmission device and the control system.
For an RS232-based control system, insert RS232 cables into RS232
ports of transmission devices to enable RS232 serial control.
NOTE: for serial control of receivers, a compatible matrix model
featuring routed RS232 should be used.
At the display end, position the IR RX eye on or near the display device,
9
ensuring a clear line of sight to the remote handset used to control it.

NOTE: Although WyreStorm
products are tested with Cat5e, we
recommend Cat6 due to increased
bandwidth and improved capacity
for handling large transmissions
along a single cable.
