Flash MatrixTM Operating Instructions

Introduction

The Flash MatrixTM is a versatile multi-input A/V matrix switcher for connecting video and audio

sources to one or more video displays, Televisions or video monitors. It features eight inde-

pendent component video/audio inputs and three independent component video/audio out-

puts. PCM Digital audio can also be switched through the Flash MatrixTM.

The Flash MatrixTM is the ideal solution when your TV, monitor, or receiver doesn't have

enough video and audio inputs. Using the Flash MatrixTM, you can connect up to eight A/V

devices and switch them to one, two, or three TVs or video displays at the same time.

Examples include:

• DVD players

• Electronic game boxes

• Cable TV, satellite, and terrestrial DTV set-top receivers

• Digital video recorders (DVRs)

• D-VHS, S-VHS, and VHS VCRs

How It Works

The Flash MatrixTM has the capacity to independently switch eight sets of component Y, Pb, Pr

(three-wire) or component five-wire (R, G, B, H, V) video and analog/digital audio signals to

any or all of three output jack fields. All input/output selections are clearly displayed on the

front panel with blue LED indicators.

You can also switch S-video (with adapter) and composite video signals from VCRs, digital

video recorders,and satellite set-top receivers through the Flash MatrixTM.

Color-coded BNC jacks are provided on the rear panel for fast and easy hook-up. Each time

an input/output combination is selected, all of the video and audio jacks that correspond to

the selected input are assigned to the selected output.

Switching can be done in any of three ways:

Manually, using the front panel buttons and indicators

Remotely, using the supplied infrared remote control

Connecting A/V Equipment

Connecting your A/V equipment to the Flash MatrixTM is a simple process. Start with Input #1

and proceed to the next higher input each time you add an A/V device.

First, determine the video signal format you want to connect. If an A/V device has component

Y, Pb, Pr (three-wire) or component RGBHV (5-wire) video outputs, use these outputs for best

video quality. If component Y, Pb, Pr or RGBHV video outputs are not available, use the S-

video output instead, but an S-Video adapter cable is necessary. Composite video signals

can also be switched through the Flash MatrixTM, but these signals will have the lowest overall

video quality.

Next, determine whether you want to use the A/V device's analog audio outputs or an avail-

able digital audio output. Use analog outputs if you are switching audio to the analog inputs

of a TV or monitor. Use digital outputs if you are switching audio to an A/V receiver that uses

coaxial digital audio inputs for decoding surround sound signals.

WARNING - Do not connect a digital audio output signal to analog inputs on your TV

or monitor! It may damage your speakers!

The Flash MatrixTM is wired with professional-grade BNC female connectors. These connec-

tors offer a better match to video cables than do smaller RCA connectors. BNC plugs also

provide a positive bayonet lock when installed.

Many consumer A/V devices do not use BNC connectors. If this is the case with some or all

of the equipment, you will need to use RCA-to-BNC adapter plugs or adapter cable assem-

blies in order to connect the Flash MatrixTM to your associated equipment.

Example 1. Connecting a digital TV set-top receiver with component Y, Pb, Pr

(three-wire) or component five-wire (RGBHV) video outputs to the Flash MatrixTM

Connect the three-wire green, blue, and red (Y, Pb, Pr) cables from your set-top receiver to

the green, blue, and red jacks on the Flash MatrixTM. Connect the white and red analog stereo

audio cables from your set-top receiver to the white and red jacks on the Flash MatrixTM. If you

have a digital audio coax output available on your set-top receiver, you can connect it to the

yellow jack on the Flash MatrixTM.

Connect the green, blue, and red jacks from Outputs 1, 2, or 3 on the Flash MatrixTM to the

corresponding component video jacks on your TV or monitor. Connect the white and red

analog audio jacks from the same output to the corresponding audio jacks on your TV or

monitor.

If you wish to listen to digital audio from your set-top receiver, connect a cable from the yel-

low BNC jack in the same output section (1, 2 or 3) to your A/V receiver's coaxial digital audio

input. Do not connect the Flash MatrixTM digital output to either of the analog audio

inputs on your TV or monitor!

If your set-top receiver uses RGBHV outputs, you will need a 15-pin 'breakout' adapter cable

to use the switcher with your set-top receiver. Connect the red, green, and blue BNC plugs

from this adapter cable to the red, green, and blue jacks on the Flash MatrixTM. Connect the

black and yellow wires from the breakout cable to the white and red (analog audio input)

jacks on the Flash MatrixTM.

You can now connect an RGBHV signal to your monitor or TV by connecting red, green, blue,

white, and red outputs on the Flash MatrixTM directly to red, green, blue, black, and yellow input

jacks on your monitor or TV. These jacks may also be labeled R, G, B, H, and V. A second 15-

pin breakout cable may be required for certain sets.

You will not be able to use analog audio switching in RGB mode, so connect digital audio

(PCM) from your set-top receiver to the Flash Matrix as described above.

Example 2. Connecting a DVD player or game console with component Y, Pb,

Pr (three-wire) video outputs to the Flash MatrixTM

Connect the three-wire green, blue, and red (Y, Pb, Pr) cables from your set-top receiver to

the green, blue, and red jacks on the Flash MatrixTM.Connect the white and red analog stereo

audio jacks on your set-top receiver to the white and red jacks on the Flash Matrix. If you

have a digital audio output jack on your set-top receiver, you can connect it to the yellow jack

on the Flash Matrix.

Connect the green, blue, and red jacks from Outputs 1, 2, or 3 on the Flash Matrix to the cor-

responding component video jacks on your TV or monitor. Connect the white and red analog

audio jacks from the same output to the corresponding audio jacks on your TV or monitor.

If you wish to listen to digital audio from your DVD player or game console, connect a cable

from the yellow BNC jack in the same output to your A/V receiver's coaxial digital audio

input. Do not connect the Flash Matrix digital output to either of the analog audio inputs on

your TV or monitor!

Example 3. Connecting devices with S-video (two-wire) or composite video out-

puts to the Flash MatrixTM

S-video connection: You will need a 'breakout' adapter cable to connect your satellite

receiver, DVR, or S-VHS VCR to the Flash MatrixTM. This cable has a S-Video (DIN) plug at one

end and a pair of BNC plugs at the other connected to white and yellow wires.

Connect the white (Y) wire to the green BNC jack in the selected input jack field, and connect

the yellow (C) wire to either the blue or red BNC jack. Connect the white and red analog

stereo audio jacks on your set-top receiver to the white and red jacks on the Flash MatrixTM.

Connect the green BNC jack in the selected output jack field to the white (Y) wire of a sec-

ond S-video to BNC adapter cable. Connect the blue or red jack to the yellow (C) wire on the

adapter cable. Plug the other end into your TV or monitor's S-video input. Connect the white

and red analog stereo audio jacks to your TV or monitor.

Composite video connection: Connect the composite video jack (yellow) from your

VCR or DVR to the green BNC jack in the selected input jack field. Connect another com-

posite video cable from the green BNC jack in the selected output jack field to your TV or

video monitor. Follow the instructions above for connecting analog audio.

Manual selection and switching of A/V inputs and outputs with the Flash Matrix

Selecting video/audio inputs and switching them with the Flash Matrix is easy and fast.

There are three large pushbuttons with rows of blue LED indicators to the right of them on

the front of the Flash Matrix. Each pushbutton corresponds to a separate video/audio output,

and each indicator lamp corresponds to a video/audio input.

To switch an A/V device connected to a specific input to Outputs 1, 2, or 3, simply push the

button for that output repeatedly until the LED indicator for the desired input is lit. All video

and audio signals connected to that input are automatically sent to the selected output.

With the Flash Matrix, you can send video and audio signals from one input to one, two, or all

three outputs. Simply repeat the input selection process for Outputs 2 and 3. This is a practi-

cal way to send the signal from one device to several TVs or monitors at the same time.

Flash MatrixTM Operating Instructions

Remote selection and switching of A/V inputs and outputs with the Flash Matrix

You can operate the Flash Matrix using the supplied infrared (IR) remote control.

Press two digits on the IR remote control to perform the desired input and output switching

function. The first digit you enter corresponds to the desired video/audio output (1,2,3). The

second digit you enter will be the desired input (1-8).

For example, if you wished to connect a DVD player from Input 5 to Output 2, you would

depress the keys 2,5 in that order.

When the first numeric key has been pressed to select the desired video/audio output, a

blue LED channel input indicator on the front panel of the Flash Matrix will blink. Once you

select the desired A/V input, this indicator will stop blinking to confirm your selection.

If you prefer, you can also use the CH+ and CH- keys on the IR remote control to step

through and select input channels once an output channel has been entered with a numeric

key.

RS-232 Control and Multiple Unit Operation

The Flash Matrix can be controlled remotely through its RS-232 and IR ports from AMX,

Crestron, and Dataton systems using standard commands.

You can operate more than one Flash Matrix at the same time by setting the rear panel four-

position DIPswitch. The first two digits represent the unit number (1-15), the third digit repre-

sents the video/audio output (1-3) and the fourth digit represents the video/audio input (1-8).

Example: To switch unit 8's Output 3 to Input 7, you would enter the code 0,8,3,7 followed by

<Enter>. The first two digits, 08, represent the unit number, 3 are the output, and 7 is the

input.
