RS-232 insertion from the Ethernet control port — Saves system resources and
•
simplifies installation by enabling a control processor to access remote RS‑232 devices
over Ethernet.
• CEC insertion — A control processor can insert CEC commands via SIS ‑ Simple
Instruction Set, to control devices connected at the HDMI output.
Supports multiple embedded audio formats — The DTP2 T 203 is compatible with
•
a broad range of multi‑channel audio signals, providing reliable operation with HDMI
sources.
Compatible with all DTP receivers and DTP-enabled products — Enables mixing
•
and matching with desktop and wallplate receivers, as well as other DTP‑enabled
products to meet application requirements. Support for remote power requires
connection to a DTP2‑enabled product.
• User-selectable HDCP authorization — Allows the unit to appear HDCP compliant
or non‑HDCP compliant to the connected source, which is beneficial if the source
automatically encrypts all content when connected to an HDCP‑compliant device.
Protected material is not passed in non HDCP mode.
Comprehensive EDID management — Use PCS software to access EDID Minder for
•
setting video input EDID, capturing EDID from connected displays, or uploading custom
EDID files. Proper EDID management ensures that sources and displays are easily
integrated into a system resulting in optimized system operation. Free downloadable
EDID Manager 2.0 software is available for advanced EDID editing and creating custom
EDID files.
• EDID Minder automatically manages EDID communication between connected
devices — EDID Minder ensures that the source powers up properly and reliably
outputs content for display.
• HDCP authentication and signal presence confirmation — Provides real‑time
verification of HDCP status for each digital video input and output. This allows for
simple, quick, and easy signal and HDCP verification through front panel LEDs, RS‑232,
USB, or Ethernet, providing valuable feedback to a system operator or helpdesk
support staff.
• HDCP Visual Confirmation — When HDCP‑encrypted content is transmitted to
a non‑HDCP compliant display, a full‑screen green signal is sent to the display for
immediate visual confirmation that protected content cannot be viewed on that display.
• HDMI to DVI Interface Format Correction — Automatically enables or disables
embedded audio and InfoFrames, and sets the correct color space for proper
connection to HDMI and DVI displays.
• Automatic color bit depth management — The DTP2 T 203 automatically adjusts
color bit depth based on the display EDID, preventing color compatibility conflicts
between source and displays.
• Output muting control — Provides the capability to mute the HDMI and/or analog
audio output at any time.
• Front panel security lockout — This feature locks out all front panel functions; all
functions however, are available through LAN, USB, or RS‑232 control.
• Built-in web page — Enables the use of a standard browser for device monitoring and
some configuration over an intuitive web interface.
RS-232 control port — Enables the use of serial commands for integration into
•
a control system. Extron products use the SIS ‑ Simple Instruction Set command
protocol, a set of basic ASCII commands that allow for quick and easy programming.
