UltraAV® HDMI 4x4 Matrix 
with HDBaseT
Setup
Note: All Cat5e/6 cables must be terminated to 568B standards.  
Unsheilded (or properly terminated sheilded cable), solid core Cat5e,  
Cat6, Cat6e, Cat7 or Cat7e cable can be used. Str anded core is not 
suggested as it can reduce signal tr ansfer. Recommended to use a 
continuous length of cable terminated at the matrix and receiv er ends.
With the matrix power switch in the OFF position, connect an HDMI High 
Speed cable from the HDMI Output of the most commonly used audio/
video source to the HDMI Input 1 located on the rear of the matrix. 
Similarly , connect the remaining source devices to the HDMI Input  Ports  
on the matrix.
Tips: Use the shortest length HDMI cables possible in each point 
in the installation. Use only High Quality and High Speed HDMI 
cables.
If desired, run a LAN cable from y our network or router into the port 
labeled LAN IN on the rear of the matrix.
Next, connect a Cat5e/6 cable to the HDBase T Out 1 port on the rear of 
the matrix. Connect the other end of the Cat5e/6 cable to the HDBase T 
IN port on the rear of the HDBase T receiver positioned near the TV. Run 
a short, High Speed HDMI cable from the HDMI Out port on the receiv er 
to the HDMI In port on the TV .  If desired, two Ethernet ports are 
provided on the rear of the receiv er for connection to Internet enabled 
TV and/or computer . Plug a provided power adapter into an AC outlet 
and the other end into the HDBase T receiver. Using the same steps,  
connect the remaining audio/video sources to the matrix.
The matrix has internal memory that stores the system 
information for faster switching. Please follow the steps in the 
order listed: T urn ON the displays and ensure they are awake (not in 
standby mode). Check the displa ys INPUT setting to ensure the correct  
HDMI port is activ e. 
T urn on the source devices and ensure they are awake (not in standby  
mode). Connect the power adapter to the matrix. Plug the power 
adapter into a surge protected AC power outlet. T urn the matrix power 
switch to the ON position.
The matrix has a low power d raw and is intended to be left on. If  
the matrix is turned off , start up the system as noted abo ve. If new 
hardw are is added, please perform a RESET .
To  RESET the matrix, turn off the display and source devices.  Power off 
the matrix and unplug the power adapter from the rear of the matrix. 
Wa it 20 minutes for the memory of the system configur ation inside of 
the matrix to be deleted.  Follow the setup instructions abo ve to correctly 
initiate the setup .

Q.  Get the message “This protocol is not supported” or other error message. 
A. See answer A1 abo ve and repeat the steps outlined .
Q.  The matrix is not down sampling the video and some of the TV’ s are not 
displaying a picture. 
A1. Go into the TV’ s setup and configure the resolution to match all the  
connected TV’ s. The TV’s should share the same resolution. 
A2. In the source devices menu options set the source device to output a 
resolution that matches all the connected displa ys.
Q.  My TV ’s resolution are not optimized.
A. The matrix will query the displa ys and provide the highest common video 
resolution amongst them. Example: Using a 1080p source, if 3 of the displa ys 
support a maximum resolution of 1080p and 1 displ ay supports a maximim 
resolution of 720p , all 4 display will oper ate at a resolution of 720p .  If the 720p 
TV in the example is then turned off , the other 3 displays can then operate in 
1080p resolution. T urn Off then turn On the matrix to refresh the configur ation. 
The three 1080p TV’ s will refresh (flicker) then each will displ ay a 1080p picture.

RS-232 Control Port (4x4 HDMI Matrix )
The RS-232 port located on the 4x4 HDMI Matix pro vides control similiar 
to the remote control from a remote device. A correctly configured 
RS232 cable is required. Connect the RS232 cable end to y our PC Serial 
port (default =COM 1). The other end to HDMI Matrix RS232 port. 
Place the included CD-ROM into y our computer CD-ROM drive. Go to  
the CD-ROM dri ve and double-click the “HDMI F amilySetupB.exe” file 
to install the command configur ation application. The HEX codes and 
settings, RS-232 cable configur ation as well as additional details on the 
usage of the application are included in PDF file format on the CD . Open 
the CD and locate the PDF file.  To open/read use Adobe Acrobat R eader.
The 4x4 HDBase T Matrix includes 4 pairs of Infr ared Extenders, 4 IR 
Tr ansmitters (I R-TX) and 4 IR  Receivers (I R-RX). The front panel of the 
matrix has 4 IR -TX ports and 4 IR -RX ports. The HDBase T Receivers each  
have one IR -TX port and one IR -RX port. Using the included extenders 
and appropriate IR port, y ou can choose to configure the IR to control  
the source devices when positioned at the displ ay or control the displ ay 
devices when postioned at the source.
To  control multiple source devices with one IR -TX, stack the sources  
together and position the IR -TX so that all the source devices can receive 
the IR signal (Blast) from the IR -TX.
The port on the matrix labeled “IR Extender” accepts an optional I\
R  
Re ceiver , taking commands from the included matrix remote control. This  
receiver enables line-of -sight if the matrix with its built -in IR receiver, 
labeled on the front panel as  IR, is not visable.
LED indicator lights
On initial power on, all LED lights on the matrix should come on solid  
blue. All the numerical LED displa ys will momentarily read ‘0’ and 
then change to ‘1 ’. If less than the maximum number of Displa ys 
are connected to the matrix (not all the outputs are used) the 
numerical indicator will indicate ‘0’ for that output and there wi\
ll be no 
corresponding  HDMI OUT blue LED for the unused output. Blue lights 
will only appear for devices connected. An y unused HDMI Input ports will 
also have its  HDMI IN blue LED unlit.
The HDBaseT Receiver has 4 LED indicators:  
1. HDCP: A solid LED indicates that the HDCP handshak e between the 
source and displ ay has been authenticated.
2. Link: Indicates a connection between the Matrix and the R eceiver.
3. Mode: A flashing LED indicates correct oper ation of the system.
4. P ower: A solid LED indicates power to the recei ver.
Operatio n
Manual Control : Yo u can oper ate HDMI source switching manually by  
using the buttons labeled ‘Out” located on the front panel. Press \
the 
button that corresponds to the output that y ou want to change the HDMI 
source on and toggle through until the desired HDMI input source video 
is being displayed. A numerical LED indicates which HDMI source input is\
  
being shown on each output (HD TV).
Remote Control:  Included with the Matrix is a R emote Control. It can 
control the matrix by pointing it at the front of the matrix, targeting \
the integr ated IR receiv er labeled IR. IR uses line-of -sight between 
the remote control (or IR -TX) and the receiver . The angle which the 
remote will work is at about a 15° degree angle in either direction t\
o the 
receive r. If the receiver is postioned such that there is not line-of -sight, 
the port labeled “IR Extender” accepts an optional IR R eceiver. This 
receiver enables line-of -sight if the matrix is out of position.
