Product appearance Front panel Figure 1: Front panel of HDBaseT 4x4 Matrix Switcher (1) Firmware Micro USB port for updating firmware. (2) Power indicator Power 'on' indicator light. (3) IR receiver IR receive window. (4) LCD indicator Shows real-time system status. (5) INPUTS/Menu Normal mode: Input buttons range from 1 to 4.
Note: This applies to all IR inputs on this switch. When using a control system, such as Clare Controls, Crestron, or URC, the 3.5 mm female mono to 3.5 mm male stereo adapter cable (included) must be used. The female mono end connects to the control system.
Connection with RS232 communication port The CM-MT4410-BT-70 HDBaseT matrix switch can be controlled by the front panel, IR, or RS232. RS232 control is via the rear RS232 communication port. It is a female 9-pin D connector. The pin definitions are listed in the table below.
Twisted pair cable connection The cables for HDBaseT ports must be straight-thru using the T568B standard, as shown below. Table 2: T568B cable standards TIA/EIA T568B Cable color orange white orange green white blue blue white green brown white brown 1st Ground 2nd Ground 3rd Group...
System connection Usage precautions The system should be installed in a clean environment with the proper temperature and humidity controls. All of the power switches, plugs, sockets, and power cords should be insulated for safety. All devices should be connected before powering on. ...
Connect the 48 VDC power adapter to the HDBaseT 4x4 matrix switcher. System applications The CM-MT4410-BT-70 matrix switch is useful in any scenario when an HDMI signal (along with control signals) must be transmitted reliably across greater distances than is practical using traditional HDMI cables. It can be used in both residential and commercial applications when centrally locating the source equipment and displaying HD video in remote locations.
Application solution Figure 4: Solution diagram System operations The button operation examples are shown in “Error! Reference source not found. Here e make a brief introduction to the system inquire operations. I/O control Convert an input to an output. Example: Input 1 to output 2. Operation: Press 1 + 2 + SELECT Note: In default status, eight IR OUTs are corresponding with eight HDM INPUTS.
Convert an input to all. Example: Convert Input 1 to all outputs. Operation: Press 1 + GLOBAL + SELECT Note: Each button flashes three times, and then extinguishes. Should the operation fail, the light extinguishes immediately. Learn EDID data Learn EDID data from one input port to one output port. Example: Enable input 2 to learn EDID data from output 4.
Status check To access the System Inquire menu, press SELECT for 3 seconds. Use the left and right direction buttons to navigate checking previous and next item.

IR control Using IR and HDBaseT transmission technology, the switcher has the following functions. Control far-end output device from local Control local input and output device remotely Control the switcher locally or remotely Note: Non-flashing emitters are not supported. You can control the switcher using its built-in IR receiver, or through the IR EYE port by connecting it to an extended IR receiver.
(4) Direction buttons Up, Down, Left, Right, Enter to confirm. (5) Output buttons 1 to 4, IR signal switched to the corresponding output signal. IR operations IR matrix switching The four “IR OUT” ports make up an 8x8 IR switcher with the four “IR IN” ports of the far-end receivers, as shown below.

Example: Send command “3R2.” to transfer the IR signal received from zone 2 to IR OUT port 3. Note: When you switch all of the four IR input signal channels to the same IR out channel, it is not able to control the all controlled device(s) at the same time. IR carrier enforcing Only when the IR receiver that is connected with the HDBaseT receiver is with IR carrier, can the received IR signal be transferred to the IR OUT port of the switcher.

The IR signal is transmitted via the twisted pair to the remote output device.
RS232 control Bi-directional RS232 to each connected HDBaseT receiver allows control of displays, projectors, etc. at the receiver locations. The default settings of the CM-4410-BT-70 are: baud rate = 9600, data bit = 8, stop bit = 1, and parity bit = none. Communication protocol: RS232 communication protocol Baud rate: 9600 Data bit: 8 Stop bit: 1...

TCP/IP control You can configure your switcher remotely using its web interface. Connection modes The default IP settings are as follows: TCP/IP: 192.168.0.178 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 IP control port: 4001 You can change the IP and gateway settings as needed. Do not change the serial port number.
Page 34
Set the PC’s IP and gateway to the same IP subnet as the default IP of the switcher (192.168.0.178). Launch your web browser, and then enter 192.168.0.178. This is the default IP address for all Clare Controls HDMI switchers. When the Web Interface Login page displays, enter the password “secure7”, and then click Login.
