Quickstart Guide
WyreStorm 8x8 4K HDMI 1.4 Matrix with Audio
Processor Including ARC support
MX-0808-4K

Before Installation

Do Not Hotswap HDMI plugs – Insert/extract cables carefully
with devices and mains switched off to avoid static build over the
cable that can damage circuitry.
Ensure any 4K sources and 4K display devices used are
compatible and outputting the correct resolutions for EDID to be
successfully negotiated and signals received.
We advise CAT 2 High Speed HDMI cables be used to connect
source and display devices - we recommend using WyreStorm
HDMI cables.
Setup and Operation
1
Using good quality HDMI 1.4 cable, firmly connect 4K or HD
source devices (such as: Blu-ray, computer, games console,
satellite/cable, music streaming device, CCTV etc.) to the relevant
HDMI IN ports 1-8 of the matrix.
2
Firmly connect HDMI OUT 1-8 of the matrix to HDMI IN of 4K or
HD display devices, ensuring both source and display devices are
compatible and correctly configured to accept the signal.
3
If using an AVR or analog audio device, connect via the S/PDIF
optical / coaxial audio outputs.
If connecting to an analog audio output, a WyreStorm
EXP-CON-DAC-DD Digital to Audio converter should be
used between the coaxial output and the analog device.

Insert the matrix power supply included and switch on the Power
on the front panel. Check front panel LED screen is lit to indicate
your WyreStorm system should now be fully connected and ready
for use.
Remember, always switch off the matrix before unplugging
any inputs or outputs – follow last on, first off protocol.
See Control section of instruction manual for full details on
controlling the matrix.
5
Basic switching of source inputs to output displays achieved via
the front panel control of the matrix, with the front LED screen
displaying the current input and output status of the matrix.
i
Once the front panel stops flashing on start up, select OUTPUTS
by pressing the LEFT / RIGHT arrow buttons and INPUTS by
pressing UP / DOWN to scroll forwards and backwards numerically
through the connected devices. The corresponding I/O channel
number will blink on the front display when reached.
ii
Press ENTER to select a I/O and the display will stop blinking to
confirm your selection.
NOTE: Additional control of the MX-0808-4K is possible
via IR remote control, or serial RS232, RS485 or LAN. See
instruction manual for full details on controlling the matrix.
6
If IR extension is required, should the matrix IR sensor window
be obstructed or the matrix itself placed our of sight, connect the
included IR RX to the matrix IR EXT port, ensuring the IR receiver
eye is placed in clear view of the handset used to control.
Should connection issues be experienced between transmission
and receiving device, investigate the root cause of the issue by
following the checklist in the Troubleshooting section of this guide.
COMBINED 4K AND HD DISTRIBUTION:
To maintain 4K resolutions to 4K screens in distributions containing
lower resolution legacy displays, a WyreStorm EXP-CON-4K-DD scaler
and Dolby downmixer should be used inline between HDMI devices to
scale down 4K transmissions to 1080p HD 24fps and Dolby downmix to
enable audio scaling between 5.1 and stereo PCM depending what the
display can support without sacrificing the integrity of the distribution.
Visit wyrestorm.com for more information on 4K/HD scaling and Dolby
downmixing.
