Output On/O Function

The HEX31WP-TX features a variety of ways that the unit can be automated to, or allow for, the powering of the display

connected to the HDBaseT™ receiver.

Output On/O Button

The Output On/O button can be programmed to power on, or o, the display connected to the HDBaseT™ Receiver

via CEC, IR or RS-232 as required by the user. The default setting on the unit is enabled for CEC (Consumer Electronic

Control), but disabled for IR and RS-232. When triggered, the Display On/O button will be illuminated. When removing

the last source device connection from the HEX31WP-TX, the display will (by default) remain powered.

The default function can be disabled (or re-enabled) as required - see below. Or refer to the RS-232 command section

of this user manual on page 08 for the full list of function commands.

Output On/O via CEC

As outlined above, the HEX31WP-TX wallplate, by default, will send out a Power On command via CEC automatically

when a video signal is sensed by the unit.

To disable this automatic feature via RS-232, send the following command:

CECAUTO OFF

To enable this automatic feature via RS-232, send the following command:

CECAUTO ON

Output On/O via IR Learning

The HEX31WP-TX can be programed to issue an IR command, via HDBaseT™ to the connected display device, when it

either detects a new signal / loss of signal, or when pressing the Output On/O button on the wall plate. To learn an IR

command into the unit, follow these steps:

1) Press and hold both Output On/O and Auto Switching buttons simultaneously for approximately 3 seconds until

both of the button LED’s flash alternately.

2) Use the Output On/O button to select between the command to be set as follows:

• A quick flashing LED for the Output On/O button indicates that Output On mode is selected

• A slow flashing LED for the Output On/O button indicates that Output O mode is selected

3) Within 30 seconds, point the IR remote control that you wish to learn at the IR sensor on the HEX31WP-TX and press

the respective button on the IR remote control.

4) The Output On/O button LED will stop flashing, and remain lit to indicate that the IR command has been learnt.

5) Press and hold the Auto Switching button for approximately 3 seconds until both the button LED’s turn o to exit IR

learning mode. The unit will return to normal operation 5 seconds aer.

Output On/O via RS-232

To enable RS-232 commands to be triggered on signal sense/loss or via the Output On/O button, send the following

commands via RS-232 to the unit:

1) To configure a command to be sent on signal sense, use the following RS-232 command:

RS232ON y:z:a

2) To configure a command to be sent on signal loss, use the following RS-232 command:

RS232OFF y:z:a

where: y = a: ASCII, h: HEX

z = 1: 2400, 2: 4800, 3: 9600, 4: 19200, 5: 38400, 6: 57600 (Default), 7: 115200

a = RS-232 command to be sent

You can also disable the RS232ON/OFF command by replacing y:z:a with DISABLE in the above commands.

Auto Switching

The HEX31WP-TX can automatically switch sources based on when an input signal is detected or lost. This feature will

automatically switch to any new source that is connected to the HEX31WP-TX, and subsequently will switch back to the

previous source when a signal is lost.

To enable or disable this feature, press and hold the the Auto Switching button for 3 seconds. The Auto Switching

button LED will blink to confirm this command has been received.

The Auto Switching button will remain lit when auto switching is enabled.

USB Type C

The USB-C input of the HEX31WP-TX gives instant connectivity with laptops and smart devices with USB-C, negating

the requirement of having to use USB-C to HDMI adaptors to obtain AV connectivity.

Not all USB-C cables support the transfer of Video and Audio. A type 3.1 USB-C cable must be used to ensure AV can

be transferred over the USB-C cable. The cables supplied with laptops or mobile devices are normally reserved for

charging only and are generally not type 3.1.

The USB-C input of the HEX31WP-TX does not support charging of mobile devices.

Mounting the HEX31WP-TX

The HEX31WP-TX has been designed to fit into a standard UK or European double-gang backbox. The mounting holes

are hidden under the magnetic faceplate on the le / right (for UK backboxes), and top / bottom (for EU backboxes).

A minimum backbox depth of 40mm is required, however, due to the normal operating temperature of HDBaseT™

equipment, we would recommend using a deeper backbox (47mm) to assist with additional heat displacement and air

circulation to the rear of the unit.

Prior consideration should be made to the choice of backbox, with particular emphasis to the location/s of cable entry

so that the maximum bend radius of the CAT cable is not exceeded.

If mounting the wallplate into a counter top, table top, or lecturn, a backbox may not necessarily be required. Please

see below technical drawing of the unit for overall and cut-out dimensions:

EDID Control

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data

is used by the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display. By pre-determining

the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time needed for EDID hand

shaking thus making switching quicker and more reliable. Configuration of the EDID settings for each input can be

achieved using the following RS-232 commands to specify the required EDID:

EDIDxxDFzz

Where xx = Input: 00 refers to ALL inputs; 01 = input 1 (HDMI 1); 02 = input 2 (HDMI 2); 03 = input 3 (USB-C)

zz = EDID as shown below:

zz=00: HDMI 1080p@60Hz, Audio 2ch PCM

Loading A Custom EDID

A custom EDID file can be loaded into the HEX31WP-TX. Some custom EDID’s can be found on Blustream’s website, or

use a 3rd party EDID tool to create a custom EDID. To load an EDID onto the HEX31WP-TX complete the following steps:

1) Rename the EDID file to be “EDID.bin”

2) Copy the EDID.bin file to a USB drive

3) Connect the USB drive to the HEX31WP-TX Micro-USB upgrade port (a USB to Micro USB cable may be required)

4) Connect your PC to the HEX31WP-TX RS-232 port via a serial RS-232 cable, see page 06 for RS-232 information

5) Send the command: EDID SAVE zz (where zz = 19 or 20 - see above) to save the EDID from the USB onto the

HEX31WP-TX into EDID position 19 or 20

6) Send the command: EDID 00 DF zz to recall the EDID for all inputs where zz is the position the EDID (19 or 20)

RS-232 Configuration

The RS-232 port is used for configuration / control of the product, including pass through of RS-232 commands to a

compatible Blustream HDBaseT™ Receiver / Matrix device.

The default RS-232 communication settings are:

Baud rate: 57600

Data bit: 8

Stop bit: 1

Parity bit: none

Common Mistakes

• Carriage return – Some programs do not require the carriage return where as other will not work unless sent directly

aer the string. In the case of some Terminal soware the token <CR> is used to execute a carriage return. Depending

on the program you are using this token maybe dierent. Some other examples that other control systems deploy

include \r or 0D (in hex)

• Spaces – Blustream commands do not require space between commands unless specified. There may be some

programs that require spacing in order to work.

- How the string should look is as follows OUT01FR02

- How the string may look if spaces are required: OUT{Space}01{Space}FR{Space}02

• Baud rate or other serial protocol settings not correct - please confirm the settings being used match the RS-232

configuration settings above.
