Definitions  
The following terms are used throughout this manual:  
EDID — Extended Display Identification Data. A communications protocol or  
instruction set developed by VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association)  
for the identification of display devices to computers using the DDC (Display  
Data Channel) transmission standard.  
DVI — Digital Visual Interface. The digital video connectivity standard that was  
developed by DDWG (Digital Display Working Group). This connection  
standard offers two different connectors: one with 24 pins that handles digital  
video signals only, and one with 29 pins that handles both digital and analog  
video. This standard uses TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signal)  
from Silicon Image and DDC (Display Data Channel) from VESA (Video  
Electronics Standards Association). DVI-D is a DVI connector that supports  
digital signals only, and DVI-I supports both digital and analog signals.  
SDI — Serial Digital Interface. The standard based on a 270 Mbps transfer rate.  
This is a 10-bit, scrambled, polarity independent interface with common  
scrambling for both component ITU-R 601 and composite digital video and  
four channels of embedded digital audio.  
HD-SDI — High-definition version of SDI specified in SMPTE 292M. This  
standard transmits audio and video over a single coaxial cable with a data  
rate of 1.485 Gbit/second.  
Preset A configuration that has been stored, allowing the setup and recall of  
recurring I/O configurations using either the front panel, RS-232/422, or  
Ethernet control.  
Input: Up to 128 input presets (individual I/O configurations) may be saved  
and recalled. An input preset is a user-defined set of input and picture  
control settings that can be saved for each source within a system so that  
they can be recalled whenever the source is active. Input presets can be  
recalled on any input that supports the saved input’s video format. This  
type of preset saves specific settings for size, centering, contrast, brightness,  
detail, zoom, and input configuration. Unlike user presets, input presets save  
parameters that can be recalled only on the source that was active when the  
preset was saved.  
User: Up to 16 user presets per input are available. A user preset saves  
specific settings for color, brightness, detail, size, and centering. User presets  
are used when a shortcut is needed to quickly recall a group of settings that  
relate to the current content or current input. Each input has it’s own set of  
16 user presets.  
PIP: Up to 16 user defined PIP window layout presets can be stored,  
available for later use. Ten factory default PIP window layout presets come  
as standard and can be overwritten.  
Auto Memory The automatic saving and recall of input and picture controls for  
signals that have been previously applied.

Resetting the Unit with the Reset Button  
There are four reset modes (numbered 1, 3, 4, and 5 for the sake of comparison  
with Extron IPL products) that you can access by pressing the Reset button on the  
rear panel. The Reset button is recessed, so use a pointed stylus, ballpoint pen, or  
Extron Tweeker to press it. See the table on the next page for a summary of the  
reset modes.  
C
Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset mode may result  
in unintended loss of flash memory programming, port reassignment, or  
processor reboot.  
N
The reset modes listed in the table close all open IP and Telnet connections and  
close all sockets. Also, each mode is a separate function, not a continuation  
from mode 1 to mode 5.

Hold down the recessed Reset button  
while applying power to the unit.  
The USP 507 reverts to the factory default firmware.  
Event scripting does not start if the device is powered  
on in this mode. All user files and settings (drivers,  
adjustments, IP settings, etc.) are maintained.  
This mode reverts to  
the factory default  
firmware version if  
incompatibility issues  
arise with user-loaded  
firmware.  
N After a mode 1 reset is performed,  
update the USP 507 firmware to the  
latest version. The reset tofactory intsled  
firmware is temporary. When power is  
cycled, the unit uses the last installed  
firmware. Do not operate the firmware  
version that results from this mode reset.  
If you want to use the factory default  
firmware, you must upload that version  
again. See page 6-10 for details on  
uploading firmware.  
N If you do not want to update firmware, or you  
performed a mode 1 reset by mistake, cycle power to the  
device to return to the firmware version that was  
running prior to the mode 1 reset. Use the 0Q SIS  
command to confirm that the factory default firmware is  
no longer running (look for asterisks following the version  
number.)  
N User-defined  
Web pages may not  
work correctly if  
using an earlier  
firmware version.  
This Mode turns events on or off.  
This mode is useful  
for troubleshooting.

Setting Up the USP 507 to Work with a Matrix Switcher  
The Sync to Matrix tool is a powerful software tool that can simplify the control  
system necessary when using an Extron matrix switcher and an USP 507.  
The “Sync to Matrix” script can sense when a new tie that is made on the matrix is  
routed to the USP 507 and automatically recalls the input preset associated with the  
input on the matrix switcher. The input preset recalls all the settings for the input  
including the signal format, input sampling settings, and picture controls.

Setting Up the USP 507 to Work with an Auxiliary Audio  
Switcher  
An auxiliary switcher, such as an Extron SW 8A, can be connected to the USP 507  
for audio routing, and controlled via the rear panel 9-pin D-sub Aux Sw Follow  
(RS-232) port (see n on figure 2-2). When the USP 507 switches inputs by RS-232,  
IP, or front panel, the USP 507 sends the corresponding switch command  
X! !) via the Aux Sw Follow port to the auxiliary switcher. The port can also  
(SIS:  
transmit the audio mute command (1Z) to the auxiliary switcher when the USP 507  
video is muted or frozen, and when the video is unmuted or unfrozen, a command  
is sent to unmute the audio.  
This port cannot directly accept SIS commands nor report the status of the  
connected auxiliary switcher.  
N
The auxiliary switcher must be connected to the Aux Sw Follow port using a NULL  
RS-232 cable only.  
Connect the audio input sources to the auxiliary audio switcher, ensuring that the  
video input number matches the audio input number.

SIS Programmer’s Guide  
The USP 507 can be operated and configured using Simple Instruction Set(SIS)  
commands input via a PC connected to the top RS-232 port on the rear panel or the  
Ethernet port. See m on page 2-4, and Appendix B for wiring details.  
RS-232/RS-422 Link  
The USP 507 has one rear port (the upper serial port) and one front port (see a on  
page 3-2) that can be used for serial control. All ports enable use of SIS commands  
and the Windows®-based control software. The default protocol for these ports is:  
• 9600 baud, • 1 stop bit, • no parity, • no flow control, • 8-bit.  
The lower rear serial port (named Aux SW Follow) is for connection to an  
auxiliary device and should not be connected to a PC or control device.  
N
Ethernet (LAN) Port  
The rear panel Ethernet connector on the unit can be connected to an Ethernet  
LAN or WAN. Communications between the unit and the controlling device is via  
Telnet (a TCP socket using port 23). The TCP port can be changed if necessary. This  
connection makes SIS control of the unit possible using a computer connected to  
the same LAN or WAN. The SIS commands and behavior of the unit are identical  
to that when communicating to it via RS-232.  
Ethernet connection  
The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover  
cable and must be properly terminated for your application. See Appendix B for  
cable termination details.  
Default IP addresses  
To access the USP 507 via the Ethernet port, you need the Extron IP address and  
may need the subnet mask and the gateway address. If the IP address has been  
changed to an address comprised of words and characters, the actual numeric IP  
address can be determined using the ping (ICMP) utility (see Appendix B for more  
details). If the addresses have not been changed, the factory-specified defaults are:  
IP address: 192.168.254.254, subnet mask: 255.255.0.0, gateway address: 0.0.0.0.  
Establishing a connection  
Establish a network connection to the processor as follows:  
1.  
Open a TCP socket to port 23 using the processor’s IP address.  
If the local system administrators have not changed the value, the  
N
factory-specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.  
The processor responds with a copyright message including the date, the  
name of the product, firmware version, part number, and the current  
date/time.  
If the processor is not password-protected, the device is ready to accept SIS  
commands immediately after it sends the copyright message.  
N
If the processor is password-protected, a password prompt appears below the  
copyright message.  
2.  
If the processor is password protected, enter the appropriate administrator or  
user password.  
If the password is accepted, the processor responds with Login Useror  
Login Administrator.  
If the password is not accepted, the Passwordprompt reappears.  
USP 507 • SIS Programmer’s Guide  
4-2

Connection timeouts  
The Ethernet link times out after a designated period of time of no communications.  
By default, this timeout value is set to five minutes but the value can be changed.  
Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at five minutes and periodically  
issuing the Query (Q) command to keep the connection active. If there are long  
idle periods, Extron recommends disconnecting the socket and reopening the  
connection when another command must be sent.  
N
Number of connections  
The USP 507 can have up to 200 simultaneous TCP connections, including all HTTP  
sockets and Telnet connections. When the connection limit is reached, the processor  
accepts no new connections until some have been closed. No error message  
or indication is given that the connection limit has been reached. To maximize  
performance of an IP Link® device, the number of connections should stay low and  
unnecessary open sockets should be closed.  
Using verbose mode  
Telnet connections to the processor can be used to monitor for changes that occur  
on the processor, such as front panel operations and SIS commands from other  
Telnet sockets or a serial port. For a Telnet session to receive change notices from  
the processor, the Telnet session must be in verbose mode 1 or 3. In verbose mode  
1 or 3, the Telnet socket reports changes in messages that resemble SIS command  
responses.  
Host-to-Processor Instructions  
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command field. They do not  
require any special characters to begin or end the command character sequence.  
Each processor response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return and a line  
feed (CR/LF = ), which signals the end of the response character string. A string  
]
is one or more characters.  
Processor-Initiated Messages  
When a local event such as a front panel operation occurs, the processor responds  
by sending a message to the host. The processor-initiated messages are listed  
below.  
With an RS-232/422 connection (upon power up):

number.  
]
Password:  
The processor initiates the password message immediately after the copyright  
message when the controlling system is connected using TCP/IP or Telnet and the  
processor is password protected. The processor requires an administrator or user  
level password before performing the commands entered.

Processor Error Responses  
When the USP 507 receives an SIS command and determines that it is valid, it  
performs the command and sends a response to the host device. If the processor  
is unable to perform the command because the command is invalid or contains  
invalid parameters, the processor returns an error response to the host. The error  
response codes are:  
E01 — Invalid input channel number (out of range)  
E10 — Invalid command  
E11 — Invalid preset number  
E12 — Invalid output number/port number  
E13 — Invalid parameter (out of range)  
E14 — Command not available for this configuration  
E17 — Invalid command for this signal type  
E22 — Busy  
E24 — Privilege violation  
E25 — Device not present  
E26 — Maximum number of connections exceeded  
E27 — Invalid event number  
E28 — Bad filename/file not found  
Using the Command/Response Table for SIS Commands  
The command/response table begins on page 4-7. Lowercase letters are acceptable  
in the command field except where indicated. The table below shows the  
hexadecimal equivalent of ASCII characters used in the command/response tables.  
ASCII to HEX Conversion Table  
ASCII to hexadecimal conversion  
Symbols are used throughout the table to represent variables in the command/  
response fields. Command and response examples are shown throughout the table.  
If unit does not support or recognize the entered commands, nothing happens  
and no response is issued.

The USP 507 checks several possibilities, in the following order, and then  
responds accordingly:  
Does the address include a specific file name, such as  
“192.168.254.254/file_name.html”? If so, the unit downloads that HTML  
page.  
Is there a file in the device’s memory that is named “index.html”?  
If so, the device downloads “index.html” as the default startup page.  
If neither of the above conditions is true, the device downloads the  
factory-installed default startup page, “nortxe_index.html” (figure 6-2),  
also known as the System Status page.

Control Pages  
These three Control pages (User Control, Memory/Input Presets, and PIP Setup/  
PIP Presets) allow limited device configuration. From the User Control page, the  
selection and viewing of inputs, mute and freeze selection, and execution of Auto-  
Image is possible. Picture control and input sampling is also available on the User  
Control page. From the Memory/Input Presets page, up to 16 memory presets and  
up to 128 input presets can be saved and recalled. Using the PIP Setup/PIP Presets  
page an input can be selected and swapped to become either the main image or the  
secondary (PIP) image. In addition, the PIP can be turned off and Auto-Image can  
be performed an either input. Within PIP Setup limited picture control is possible.  
The Control pages initially open on the User Control page.  
User Control page  
The User Control page emulates some of the front panel features and displays the  
current picture control settings and input sampling data (see figure 6-11).  
In addition, image muting/unmuting, freezing/unfreezing and Auto-Image can be  
selected.  
Figure 6–11 User Control page  
To select an input to be displayed, click on an input number. The selected input is  
displayed.  
To mute or unmute, freeze or unfreeze the input image, click on the appropriate  
button. Muting the image blanks the display screen. Unmuting the image allows  
the image to be displayed.  
Freezing the image keeps the same image displayed, even when the input is  
switched. Unfreezing the image allows images from switched inputs to be viewed.  
Select Auto-Image to initiate an Auto-Image on the selected input.  
For picture control, select and change the criteria in this section as desired.  
The input sampling section allows adjustment to specific image settings (horizontal  
and vertical start, pixel phase, total pixels active pixels, and active lines). To view  
or adjust these, an active signal must be present and PIP must be turned off.

Default address  
To access the USP 507 via the Ethernet port, you need the unit’s IP address. If the  
address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, the  
actual numeric IP address can be determined using the ping utility. If the address  
has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.  
Ping can also be used to test the Ethernet link to the USP 507  
.
Ping to determine Extron IP address  
The ping utility is available at the command (Cmd) prompt. Ping tests the  
Ethernet interface between the computer and the USP 507. Ping can also be used  
to determine the actual numeric IP address from an alias and to determine the Web  
address.  
Ping the device as follows:  
1.  
2.  
From the Windows Start menu, select Run... . The Run window opens.  
In the Open text field, enter command.

4.  
Click OK. A DOS command window opens.  
At the DOS prompt, enter pingIP address. The computer returns a display  
similar to figure B-2.  
The line Pinging ... reports the actual numeric IP address, regardless of  
whether you entered the actual numeric IP address or an alias name.  
Figure B–2 — Ping response  
Ping to determine Web IP address  
The ping utility has a modifier, -a, that directs the command to return the Web  
address rather than the numeric IP address.  
At the DOS prompt, enter ping -aIP address. The computer’s return display  
is similar to the ping response shown in figure B-2, except that when you specify  
the -a modifier, the line Pinging mail... reports the Web IP address instead of  
the numeric IP address, regardless of whether you entered the actual numeric IP  
address or an alias name.  
Connect as a Telnet client  
The Telnet utility is available from the DOS prompt. Telnet allows you to input SIS  
commands to the USP 507 from the PC via the Ethernet link and the LAN.  
Access the DOS prompt and start Telnet as follows:

Telnet tips  
It is not the intention of this manual to detail all of the operations and functionality  
of Telnet. However, some basic level of understanding is necessary for operating  
the USP 507 via Telnet.  
Connecting to the USP 507 (Open command)  
You connect to the USP 507 using the Open command. Once your computer is  
connected to the unit you can enter the SIS commands the same as you would if  
you were using the RS-232 link.  
Connect to the device as follows:  
1.  
At the Telnet prompt, enter openIP address.  
If the processor is not password protected, no further prompts are displayed  
until you disconnect from the USP 507.  
If the processor is password protected, Telnet displays the password prompt.  
2.  
If necessary, enter the password at the password prompt.  
Connection to the processor via the Ethernet can be password protected.  
There are two levels of password protection: administrator and user.  
A person logged on as an administrator has full access to all the processing  
capabilities and editing functions.  
Users can select test patterns, mute or unmute the output, select a blue  
screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the  
processor is delivered with both passwords set to carriage return.  
Once you are logged in, the processor returns either Login Administrator or  
Login User. No further prompts are displayed until you disconnect the from  
the USP 507.  
Escape character and Esc key  
When Telnet is first started, the utility advises that the Escape character is ‘Ctrl+]’.  
Many SIS commands include the keyboard Esc key. Consequently, some confusion  
may exist between the Escape character and the Esc key.  
The Telnet Escape character is a key combination: the Ctrl key and the ] key pressed  
simultaneously. Pressing these keys displays the Telnet prompt while leaving the  
connection to the USP 507 intact.  
The Escape key is the Esc key on the computer keyboard.  
Local echo  
Once your computer is connected to the USP 507, by default Telnet does not display  
your keystrokes on the screen. SIS commands are entered blindly, and only the SIS  
responses are displayed on the screen. To command Telnet to show all keystrokes,  
enter set local echoat the Telnet prompt before you open the connection to the  
processor.  
With local echo turned on, keystrokes and the processor’s responses are displayed  
on the same line. Example: 1*1*1!01Out01 In01 All where 1*1*1!is the  
SIS command and 01Out01 In01 Allis the response.  
Note that all keystrokes are displayed, even those that should be masked, such as  
the password entry. For example, when entering a password with local echo turned  
on, you see a display such as a*d*m*i*n*, where adminis the keyed-in password  
and ***** is the masked response.  
B-4  
USP 507 Ethernet Connection

Local echo can be turned off by entering unset local_echoat the Telnet prompt.  
If your computer is connected to the USP 507, and you need to access the Telnet  
prompt to turn local echo off, enter the Escape sequence (Ctrl + ]).  
Setting carriage return-line feed  
Unless commanded otherwise, Telnet transmits a line feed character only (no  
carriage return) to the connected processor when you press the Enter key. This is  
the correct setting for SIS communication with the processor. The Telnet set crlf  
command forces Telnet to transmit carriage return and line feed characters when  
Enter is pressed; however, if crlf is set, the SIS link with the processor does not  
function properly.  
Closing the link to the processor  
To close the link to the processor, access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escape  
sequence (Ctrl + ]). At the Telnet prompt, enter close.  
Help  
For Telnet command definitions, enter ?at the Telnet prompt.  
Exiting Telnet (Quit command)  
Exit the Telnet utility by entering quitat the Telnet prompt. If you are connected  
to the USP 507, access the Telnet prompt by entering the Escape sequence (Ctrl + ]).  
Subnetting — A Primer  
A subnet is a subset of a network — a set of IP devices that have portions of their  
IP addresses in common. It is not the purpose of this manual to describe TCP/  
IP protocol in detail. However, some understanding of TCP/IP subnetting is  
necessary in order to understand the interaction of the USP 507 and the mail server  
gateway. To understand subnetting at the level required to install and operate the  
USP 507, you must understand the concepts of a gateway, local and remote devices,  
IP addresses and octets, and subnet masks and octets.  
Gateways  
The USP 507 can communicate with the e-mail server that it uses for e-mail  
notification directly (if they are on the same subnet), or the communication can be  
routed via a gateway (a computer that provides a link between different subnets).  
Local and remote devices  
The local and remote devices are defined from the point of view of the function  
being described. In this manual, subnetting is an issue when you are using the  
controlling PC to set TCP/IP values in the USP 507.  
IP addresses and octets  
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields, properly called  
“octets”, which are separated by dots (periods) (figure B-4). Each octet can be  
numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to 3 digits total per octet, are  
optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.  
Typical IP Address: 192.168.254.254  
Octets

Subnet masks and octets  
The subnet mask (figure B-5) is used to determine whether the local and remote  
devices are on the same subnet or different subnets. The subnet mask consists  
of four numeric octets separated by dots. Each octet can be numbered from  
000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to 3 digits total per octet, are optional. Each  
octet typically contains either 255 or 0. The octets determine whether or not the  
same octets of two IP addresses will be compared when determining if two devices  
are on the same subnet.  
255 indicates that this octet will be  
0 indicates that this octet will not be  
compared between two IP addresses.  
compared between two IP addresses.  
Typical Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0  
Octets  
Figure B–5 Subnet mask and octets  
Determining whether devices are on the same subnet  
To determine the subnet, the local device’s IP address is compared to the remote  
device’s IP address (figure B-6 below). Each address’s octets are compared or not,  
depending on the value in the related subnet mask octet.  
If a subnet mask octet contains the value 255, the related octets of the local  
device’s address and the remote device’s IP address are unmasked.  
Unmasked octets are compared (indicated by ? in figure B-6).  
If the subnet mask octet contains the value 0, the related octets of the local  
device’s and remote device’s IP addresses are masked.  
Masked octets are not compared (indicated by X in figure B-6).  
If the unmasked octets of the two IP addresses match (indicated by = in figure B-6,  
example 1), the two addresses are on the same subnet.  
If the two unmasked fields do not match (indicated by an unequal sign in  
figure B-6, example 2 and example 3), the addresses are not on the same subnet.
