INTRODUCTION

Atlona Technologies’ AT-PROHD48M-SR is a 4x8 HDMI Matrix Switcher over Twisted Pair designed to work as

a switcher for multiple Audio/Video sources and displays. The Atlona unit is capable of switching HDMI signals

between four sources (such as: Blue-Ray player, HD DVD player, satellite receiver, game system, etc.) and

eight displays. Because it is a matrix switch, any or all of the 4 inputs can simultaneously be switched to any or

all of the outputs. Along with supporting HDMI 1.3 and HDCP Compliance, switcher will support high deﬁnition

video in multiple resolutions of up to 1080p or 1920x1200. Five switching modes are available including front

panel buttons, local IR, IR call back from remote locations, RS485 and TCP/IP. The PROHD48 is capable of

routing IR signal from remote locations to the main location where the switcher is. The IR emitters/receivers

can control the switch as well as sources next to it.

The Atlona PROHD48M-SR has 8 dual* outputs.

*Dual Output: HDMI + Dual Twisted Pair output where both are active at the same time. Each output could be

connected to either 2 displays or AVR and a Display; however the signal from both outputs will be identical.

CONNECT AND OPERATION

1) Connect the HDMI input sources (such as HD-DVD, PS3, AppleTV, DirecTV etc) into the inputs on AT-PRO-

HD48M-SR.

2) Connect the HDMI outputs from AT-PROHD48M-SR (such as LCD, Plasma, LED, Projector, Monitor)

3) Power on the input source you want to show. (Keep the unused input power off, otherwise it may interfere

with the normal display.)

4) Use IR remote, front panel, RS232, TCP/IP or RS485 connections to choose desired input source.

5) IR calls back from remote locations allows controlling the matrix switch as well as nearby sources (such as

DVD, AppleTV, Satellite, Cable and etc…).

Note: To enable the function: press the output2 selection button and the key lock button at the same time for

about 3 seconds. After all the output1 LEDs and the output2 LEDs ﬂash once, the function is enabled.

*Disable the function: press the output2 selection button and the key lock button at the same time for about 3

seconds. After all the output1 LEDS and the output2 LEDS ﬂash twice, the function is disabled.

7) Instruction on IR Emitter.

The sequence of “IR1, IR2, IR3, IR4” one-to-one correspond with “HDMI INPUTS1 through 4”. When an output

chooses certain input, the call-back IR signal of RJ45 on this output will choose the corresponding “IR” port to

send the signal out.

For example, OUTPUT1 chooses INPUT3, then the call-back IR signal of RJ45 on OUTPUT1 will choose “IR

3” to send the signal out.

Note: For better functionality of the IR, we suggest to place the IR receiver Eye at the IR Eye of the controlling source.

8) EDID Settings:

There are three DIP switches on the back of the switcher. Below you will ﬁnd the deﬁnition of each one of the

dip switches.

EACH TIME DIP SWITCHES ARE CHANGED; THE ATLONA SWITCH HAS TO POWER CYCLED.

DIP #1: Auto EDID Management (ADM) is a smart function which will allow users to have matrix switch ﬁgure

out the best and most appropriate EDID.

The way it works: Atlona 4x8 matrix acquires EDID from all the outputs and after processing it, chooses the

EDID which will work on all the outputs.

Example # 1: User has 8 outputs connected where 6 of the outputs are 1080P TV’s only and the other 2 loca-

tions are 720P TV’s. The Atlona’s EDID would be 720P with 2-channel Stereo (because most TV’s will only be

able to take stereo audio though HDMI input).

Example # 2: User has 8 outputs connected, where 6 outputs are 1080P TV’s and the remaining are 2 x Sur-

round Sound Receivers (after connected to the TV’s for video only). The Atlona’s EDID would be 1080P with

Stereo or PCM (because most TV’s will only take Stereo Audio though HDMI input).

Important Note # Every time new TV’s or AVR’s are added or replaced, the ADM would have to perform again.

The way to do it is to (Simultaneously press and hold the “Output# 1”and “Lock Key” buttons for three seconds)

Remark: If you don’t like the Auto EDID Management functions, switcher has some pre-recorded modes which

will certainly satisfy you.

DIP #2: If one of your Output devices is a projector or display with a unique resolution, please connected it to

the output # 1 and perform the following operation (Simultaneously press “Output# 1”and “Lock Key” buttons).

The HDMI output has a higher priority than RJ45 outputs.

DIP #3: Atlona Switcher has a few built-in EDID modes; this mode is for 1080P with Stereo Audio. When this

mode is selected and user has some of the displays which are not compatible with 1080p, those displays may

not be able to show the image correctly. User might need to use an Atlona HDMI down-scaler for each low

resolution display.

DIP #4: Switcher has a few built-in EDID modes; this mode is for 1080i/720p with Stereo Audio. This mode is

designed for applications where user has a mix of displays 1080p, 1080i, 720p and wants them all to work.

This mode will set the resolution to 1080i or 720p on the source.

DIP #5: Switcher has a few built-in EDID modes; this mode is for 1080p with 5.1 Digital Audio. This mode is

designed for applications where user has AV Receivers in each remote location which are able to accept Digital

Audio from HDMI inputs. If this mode is selected and in even one of the locations user has a TV without an AV

receiver, the TV might “mute” or start outputting garbled audio (because most TV’s don’t support digital audio

though HDMI input)

DIP #6: Switcher has a few built-in EDID modes; this mode is for 1080p with 7.1 Digital Audio. This mode is

designed for applications where user has AV Receivers in each remote location which are able to accept Digital

Audio from HDMI inputs. If this mode is selected and in even one of the locations user has a TV without an AV

receiver, the TV might “mute” or start outputting garbled audio (because most TV’s don’t support digital audio

though HDMI input)

DIP #7: This mode is similar to “DIP # 1”; however requires special RJ45 receivers will be required to work on

a single RJ45. Ask Atlona sales representative for this option prior purchasing the switch.

DIP #8: This mode is similar to “DIP # 2”’; however requires special RJ45 receivers will be required to work

on a single RJ45. Ask Atlona sales representative for this option prior purchasing the switch.

IR REMOTE CONTROL

The AT-PROHD48M-SR comes with 32 button IR remote control, which could be used to

control the switcher when pointing at it or controlling the switcher from a remote location

by pointing the remote control to the IR Eye connected to the HDMI receiver.

For users who would like to use a 3rd part IR remote control or IR remote system, we

recommend either learning IR codes off the remote or copying and pasting the IR HEX

code into the remote control software. The ﬁle with HEX codes could be found on Atlona

website under downloads for AT-PROHD48M-SR.

There are 2 scenarios which codes to use:

• User will need to learn all 32 x codes in order to control each location when pointing at

the switcher

• User will only need to learn 4 x codes if there will be a separate remote for each re-

mote location

Note: The switcher can only accept and route IR signal which doesn’t exceed 38

KHz. In other words, if you are trying to send IR signal from the remote location

though out HDMI receiver and the IR signal is higher than 38 KHz, the IR signal

will not pass though.

F.A.Q.

1. Question: Some of my sources are not HDMI, how can I have them all routed though this switch?

Answer: Atlona offers a wide range of scalers and converters for converting: Composite, S-Video,

Component, VGA, DVI, HDSDI to HDMI

2. Question: What type of cable do you suggest I use for connecting the matrix switch to the HDMI receiver?

Answer: CAT7 would be the best, then CAT6, and then CAT5e and the last would be CAT5

3. Question: How do I terminate the RJ45 cable?

Answer: We strongly suggest terminating your RJ45 cables 568B for the best performance

4. Question: On one of the TV’s the signal is going in and out; however it is able to support as high of

resolutions as other TV’s

Answer:

a) We recommend illuminating RJ45 wall plates and patch panels and connect the output of the switch

directly with the receiver.

b) Also, we suggest checking the termination of the wire with RJ45 tested, all 8 wires have to work.

c) HDMI receiver is not plugged in to the power outlet.

d) Try another input on the TV.

5. Question: The audio which comes into the Audio receiver is only Stereo or PCM

Answer: Please check EDID dip switch conﬁguration page, as it fully explains the audio works

6. Question: I have a universal remote control and I would like to program this switcher into it.

Answer: Under the download page on Atlona website you would be able to ﬁnd IR codes in HEX format

which you use to program your remote control or you can also learn the commands.

7. Question: When using local HDMI outputs the signal is going in and out; however when connecting displays

though CAT5 receivers everything is ﬁne.

Answer: Our switcher has priority set on CAT5 outputs and some sources require priority to be changed in

order to work properly. Please contact Atlona tech support to obtain software which will allow you to unlock

the priority and change it to HDMI outputs.
