1. INTRODUCTION This unit is part of a 4K UHD Multi-Function Extension system that allows you to extend HDMI or VGA signals along with KVM using the TCP/IP protocol over regular Cat.5e/6/7 network cable. This extender supports the reception of Ultra High-Definition signals (up to 4K@30Hz RGB) with audio and USB up to 100m over a single cable.
3. PACKAGE CONTENT 1× UHD Video over IP Receiver 1× 5V/4A DC Power Adapter 1× IR Extender Cable 1× IR Blaster Cable 1× Power Cord 1× Operation Manual 4. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS HDMI receiving equipment such as an HDTV, monitor, or audio amplifier.
5. FEATURES HDMI 2.0 and DVI 1.0 compliant HDCP 1.4 & 2.2 compliant 1×HDMI output Video, audio and control reception over TCP/IP in Unicast (point-to- point) or Multicast (single-to-many) modes HDMI output resolutions up to 4K@30Hz (RGB, 8-bit) Note: 4K@50/60Hz (4:2:0) sources are automatically converted to 4K@25/30Hz (RGB) and 4K@50/60Hz (4:4:4) sources are automatically converted to 1080p@50/60Hz (RGB) prior to transmission from the...
6. OPERATION CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS 6.1 Transmitter's Front Panel POWER SWITCH CH + CH - RESET LINK USB 2.0 USB 1.1 MODE LINK IR IN IR OUT CONTROL BUTTON POWER LED: This LED will flash while the unit is powering on and will illuminate solidly once it is ready to be used.
Page 10
CH+/LINK Button: This button controls the following functions: Channel +: Press this button momentarily to increase the streaming channel to the next available channel on the local network. Note: If no other channels are detected, the channel number will not change.
Note: By default this is set to the right (towards the Control Button ports) and allows normal RS-232 functionality. Setting this switch to the left enables ISP engineering mode. CONTROL BUTTON 1~2 Ports: Connect to dedicated Trigger Buttons (Optional, not included) which are used to change the currently selected streaming channel.
LAN 1 (PoE) ~3 Ports: Connect via a Gigabit Ethernet switch to compatible transmitters to receive video and data, or to a PC/laptop to control the unit via WebGUI. Note: This unit can be powered directly by the connected Gigabit Ethernet switch if it provides PoE (802.3af).
6.5 WebGUI Control Device Discovery Please obtain the “Device Discovery” software from your authorised dealer and save it in a directory where you can easily find it. Connect the unit and your PC/Laptop to the same active network and execute the “Device Discovery” software. Click on “Find Devices on Internet”...

WebGUI Overview All major functions of the unit, including status, streaming method, streaming channel selection, output resolution, video wall configuration, EDID management, Ethernet settings, and reset/firmware functions are controllable via multiple tabs in the WebGUI interface allowing for reasonably intuitive operation. Each transmitter, receiver, or transceiver is controlled by its own WebGUI interface which may be accessed by opening a standard web browser on a PC and typing in the IP address of the unit you wish to connect to.
strongly suggested to avoid mixing your regular network traffic with AVoIP streaming traffic and the AVoIP traffic should exist within a separate subnet, at the minimum. 6.5.1 System Tab The System tab contains 4 windows that provide access to firmware version information, a firmware update interface, utilities for rebooting and resetting the unit, Telnet command entry, and a variety of statistics and information about the operational state of the unit.
Page 16
3) Utilities: The Utilities window allows users to reset the unit back to the factory defaults by clicking “Factory Default”. The unit may be rebooted (without resetting settings) by pressing the “Reboot” button. Note: Enable Log Messages is for troubleshooting purposes and should only be checked if instructed to do so by technical support.
Page 17
4) Statistics: The Statistics window shows all available information about the operational status of the unit, including current Host ID Name, serial number, Ethernet information, MAC address, unicast/multicast mode, link status and mode.
6.5.2 Video Wall Tab The Video Wall tab allows user to design, edit and manipulate a video wall system created using multiple receiver units connected to identical displays. The bezel and video size of the displays being used, as well as the horizontal and vertical monitor count, is defined here.
Page 19
When saving changes on the Video Wall tab, remember to select the appropriate “Apply To:” target unit before pressing the “Apply” button. To make changes to the unit you are currently connected to, select “This” as the target. Otherwise, select the IP address of the receiver (client) you want to apply changes to from the “Apply To:”...
Page 20
Note: Typically all monitors in a video wall are identical and have the same dimensions, but it is possible to use differently sized displays as long as the same measurement units are used to measure each display and the displays are still arranged in a normal rectangular layout with corners meeting at the same place.
Page 21
Column Position: Set the horizontal location of the currently controlled display. (Counts left to right, from 0 to 15) 3) Preferences: This section of the Video Wall tab provides additional controls over how the source video is displayed on the video wall as well as providing a drop down to determine which receiver to apply changed settings to.
6.5.3 Network Tab The Network tab provides controls over the receiver’s broadcast reception channel, IP configuration, and network broadcast mode. Changes made to the network settings will require a reboot of the unit. After clicking on “Apply” please follow the reboot instructions in the WebGUI. Note: If the IP address is changed then the IP address required for WebGUI access will also change accordingly.
Page 23
1) Channel Setup: Use the dropdown to select the broadcast reception channel for the receiver. The receiver will display the video stream from the transmitter using the selected broadcast channel. The available channel range is from 0 to 255. 2) IP Setup: This section allows for configuration of the IP acquisition mode and Ethernet settings of the unit.
6.5.4 Functions Tab The Functions tab provides control over the receiver’s output resolution, video loss settings, as well as a wide variety of optional features and functions, including USB and serial control extension. Changes made to these settings typically require a reboot of the unit. After clicking on “Apply”...
Page 25
Video Loss Options: Use the drop down to set the length of time to wait for a lost source to return before showing the Link Lost screen. Available options are: 3, 5, 10, 20, 30, 60 seconds, or Never Timeout. If the “Turn off screen”...
Page 26
Compatibility Mode: These troubleshooting options enable specialised optimizations to solve issues when a mouse or touch panel is not responding properly. They should normally be left unchecked. 3) Serial over IP: This section provides controls for the Serial over IP extension functionality, including enabling/disabling serial support and setting the RS-232 data configuration.
6.6 Telnet Control Before attempting to use Telnet control, please ensure that both the unit and the PC are connected to the same active networks. Start your preferred Telnet/Console client, or use the built in client provided by most modern computer operating systems. After starting the client, connect by using the current IP address of the unit and port 23 (if the communication port number used by the unit has not been changed previously).
