Quick Setup Guide

Initial Setup & Operation for HDMI via Front Panel

The KD-HDMS8x8 is set by default to HDMI Input. To change these default settings please see “Initial Setup & Operation via CAT6/STP Baluns” section below.

1. Insert HDMI cables into card slots 1 through 16

» Slots 1-8 are labeled Rx, and are Input Card Slots 1-8.

» Slots 9-16 are labeled Tx, and are Output Card Slots 1-8.

» Connect your source components to the Input cards

» Connect your displays to the Output cards

» Power up all sources and displays

2. Establish an HDMI Handshake for Each Source

» Push the left selector to access the Main Menu choices

» Using the left selector, scroll to the “7-EDID Setup” Menu

» Press the right selector to navigate to the EDID sub-menus

» With the left selector, scroll to the Input source you wish to copy the EDID to

» Using the right selector, scroll to the HDMI or CAT6/STP Output you wish to establish an HDMI handshake for, or select a Default EDID 01-08 from the EDID library (see pg.10)

» Press the right selector to set the Handshake for that combination

» Continue this procedure for all Inputs

» The EDID control and HDMI input set up is stored in a non-volatile memory back up and is only required during initial set up or when a new display or source is added to the system.

» Establish a default handshake for ALL Inputs:

» Using the ‘7-EDID Setup’ Menu, select ‘ALL Inputs’ and scroll to the Output number you wish to copy the EDID from (HDMI, CAT6/STP or a Default EDID setting) and press the right selector

3. Switching via Front Panel

» Push the left selector to access the Main Menu choices

» Using the left selector, scroll to the “1-Video Switch” Menu

» Press the right selector to navigate to the Video Switch sub-menus

» Using the left selector, scroll to the Output you wish to select

» Using the right selector, scroll to the Input you wish to select

» Finally, press the right selector to make the switch

4. Sending your output via KD-BBRX CAT6/STP Receive Balun(s)

» Both HDMI and CAT6/STP Outputs are active on all Output Card Slots, therefore no configuration is necessary to activate the CAT6/STP Output for each Tx Card Slot.

5. Sending your source via KD-BBTX CAT6/STP Transmit Balun(s)

» Set dipswitch #2 of the KD-BBTX Balun to “DDC” in order to establish a proper HDMI handshake

» Configure the appropriate Input Card Slot to activate its CAT6/STP input using the “6-Video Input Setup”

Initial Setup & Operation via CAT6/STP Baluns

When using Key Digital Baluns (RX/TX) you must use the following procedure to correctly format both the baluns and HDMS8x8 matrix switcher for correct operation.

» NOTE: Slots 1-8 are inputs, slots 9-16 are outputs.

» The KD-BBTX Dipswitch #2 MUST be set to the DDC position.

½ IMPORTANT: Make sure that you power up all baluns, sources and displays. Confirm that you have an active connection on the Balun indicated by the solid red “LINK” LED.

1. By default, the KD-HDMS8x8 is configured to accept a direct HDMI connection. When using a KD-BBTX, you MUST change the input mode from HDMI to CAT6/STP to enable the switcher to “see” the CAT6/STP/Balun input. Select “6-Video Input Setup” from the main menu. Press the right selector to navigate to the sub-menus. Using the left selector, scroll to the Input number you wish to change. Using the right selector, scroll to select “CAT6/STP” and press the right selector to enter your choice.

2. Repeat procedure for any other input where a KD-BBTX is being used.

3. Once you have correctly configured the inputs to accept either HDMI and/or CAT6/STP/Balun, you need to establish the correct HDMI “handshake”.

4. See previous section on establishing an HDMI handshake.

SPCCAT6/STPIC xxyy

xx = Input numberyy = EQ Value 0-40 (default is 20)

To adjust CAT6/STP Input EQ for fine tuning Video signal if necessaryExample: To adjust CAT6/STP Input 6 EQ to value 30, issue the command: ‘SPCCAT6/STPIC0630’

Configure CAT6/STP Output to either DDC or PCM Audio

SPCCAT6/STPOC hhhh

‘hhhh’ = hex value for Input or Output numbers selected.

To set CAT6/STP Output to either DDC (Data Display Channel) or PCM Audio.Default or unselected will be DDC, selected Inputs/Outputs will be PCM Audio.Binary value 0 = DDC, 1 = PCM AudioExample: To set the CAT6/STP output of outputs 1 and 6 to PCM, issue the command; ‘SPCCAT6/STPOC2100’, all other outputs will remain DDC

Reset to Factory Defaults

SPCDFxx xx = 01-08 and represents the default EDID choice desired after reset. (See menu 7-EDID Set Up options for default EDID choices)

To reset factory default settings by type.Example: To reset to 1080p HD Audio EDID, issue the command; ‘SPCDF06’

Specifications

» Video Input Interface (HDMI Input Card): Has both HDMI and CAT6/STP (RJ45) Inputs, only 1 of these Inputs can be selected per Input card

» Supports HDMI 1.3a and 3D Feature of HDMI1.4

» CAT6/STP(RJ45) works only with KD-BBTX Balun and HDMI with KD-CATHD(TX) Baluns.

» Video Output Interface (HDMI Output Card):

» Features both HDMI and CAT6/STP(RJ45) outputs, and provides both simultaneously.

» Supports HDMI 1.3a and 3D Ready, 4K Resolution Support features of HDMI1.4

» CAT6/STP(RJ45) works only with KD-BBRX Balun and HDMI with KD-CATHD(RX) Baluns..

» Audio Input Interface (HDMI Input Card):

» Supports both PCM and Analog Stereo Audio inputs. The PCM Input shares the same RCA connector as Left Analog stereo and only one of these audio inputs / formats can be selected at a time.

» The Analog Stereo Audio input is processed at 48kHz sampling rate.

» Audio Output Interface (HDMI Output Card):

» Supports both PCM and Analog Stereo Audio Outputs. The PCM Output shares the same RCA connector as Left Analog stereo and only one of these audio outputs / format types can be selected at a time.

» 1. When the PCM Output is selected and its source is from the external PCM Input, PCM (at 48 kHz) will be in bypass mode to pass Dolby Digital, DTS, or 2Ch PCM and will be without audio control.

» 2. The Analog Stereo Audio Input is processed (at 48 kHz) and will be converted to digital audio at the PCM Output if desired. Full audio control will be available in this case.

» 3. When HD Audio (HD-Dolby Digital, HD-DTS etc.) or multi-channel PCM is carried by HDMI, it will be muted at the PCM Output if HDMI is selected as the audio input source.

» Control Interface (HDMI Input/Output Card):

» Supports both RS-232(up to 115200bps) and Serial IR and shares the same stereo mini-jack. Only one control protocol can be selected through control port settings.

» RS-232 and Serial IR support bi-directional paths. Output signal level is +5V TTL and has +/-12V tolerance.

» Control Interface (Power Board):

» Supports one RS-232(DB9), one TCP/IP(RJ45), one USB(B Type) for service only (software upgrade), one Serial IR and one IR Eye.

» RS-232 baud rate for control of unit is fixed at 57,600bps.

» RS-232 and TCP/IP share same control commands.

» Serial IR supports bi-directional path. Output signal level is +5V TTL with +/-12V tolerance.

» IR Eye is only for Remote IR receiving sensor.

» Front Panel Interface:

» 2 row LCD Display, two rotary knobs(left and right) with push-to-select action to control menu choices for front panel control, and IR Eye

» IR Eye is only for Remote IR receiving sensor.
