The Extron DXP DVI Pro and DXP HDMI series are digital matrix  
switchers that route single link DVI-D signals or HDMI signals from  
multiple sources to any or all of up to eight DVI- or HDMI-equipped  
display devices. All DXP matrix switchers support resolutions of up to  
1920x1200 and HDTV 1080p/60, and are HDCP-compliant, enabling  
simultaneous distribution of a single source signal to one or more  
compliant displays.  
The following matrix sizes are available:  
DXP 44 DVI Pro and DXP 44 HDMI: 4 inputs by 4 outputs  
DXP 48 DVI Pro and DXP 48 HDMI: 4 inputs by 8 outputs  
DXP 84 DVI Pro and DXP 84 HDMI: 8 inputs by 4 outputs

computer to control the networked switcher with SIS commands,  
the Matrix Switchers Control Program, or the embedded HTML  
pages on the switcher.  
Ethernet connection indicators — The Link and Act LEDs  
indicate the status of the Ethernet connection.  
Link: Indicates that the switcher is properly connected to an  
Ethernet LAN. This green LED should light steadily.  
Act (Activity): Indicates transmission of data on the RJ-45  
connector. This yellow LED should flicker as the switcher  
communicates.  
Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 3, 5e, or 6 unshielded twisted  
pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with  
RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are limited to 328 feet (100 m).  
NOTES: Do not use standard telephone cables. Telephone  
cables do not support Ethernet or Fast Ethernet.  
Do not stretch or bend the cables because this can  
cause transmission errors.

A cable that is wired as T568A at one end  
and T568B at the other (Tx and Rx pairs  
reversed) is a "crossover" cable.  
A cable that is wired the same at both ends  
is called a "straight-through" cable, because  
no pin or pair assignments are swapped.

Remote Control  
This section describes selected SIS commands that pertain to system  
setup. It also contains instructions for obtaining, installing, and  
starting the Matrix Switchers Control Program and for accessing the  
DXP HTML pages. The following topics are discussed:  
Establishing a Network (Ethernet) Connection  
You can send SIS commands over an Ethernet link (rear panel RJ-45  
LAN port) or a serial connection (front panel Config port or rear panel  
Remote RS232/RS422 port). The network connection procedure is  
described below; for information about the serial connection, see the  
DXP DVI Pro and DXP HDMI Series User Guide.  
Establish a network connection as follows:  
1. Open a TCP socket to port 23 using the switcher IP address.  
NOTE: The factory default IP address is 192.168.254.254.  
The switcher responds with a message consisting of the copyright  
date, the name of the product, firmware version, part number,  
and the current date and time.  
Example (with an Internet connection):  
(c)Copyright20nn,ExtronElectronicsDXPDVI-HDMI,  
]
Vn.nn,60-nnnn-01  
]
Ddd,DDMmmYYYYHH:MM:SS  
NOTES: If the switcher is not password-protected, the device is now  
ready to accept SIS commands.  
If the switcher is password-protected, a password prompt  
appears.  
2. If the switcher is password-protected, enter the appropriate  
password.  
3. If the password is accepted, the switcher responds with Login  
Useror Login Administrator.  
4. If the password is not accepted, the Passwordprompt reappears.

Connection Timeouts  
The Ethernet link times out and disconnects after a designated  
period of no communications. By default, this timeout value is set to  
5 minutes but the value can be changed.  
NOTE: Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at  
5 minutes and periodically issuing the Query (Q) command  
to keep the connection active or disconnecting the socket  
and reopening the connection when necessary.  
Number of Connections  
A switcher can have up to 200 simultaneous TCP connections,  
including all HTTP sockets and Telnet connections. When the  
connection limit is reached, the switcher 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 your switcher, keep the number of connections low and close  
unnecessary open sockets.  
Verbose Mode  
Telnet connections to a switcher can be used to monitor for changes  
that occur on the switcher, 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 switcher, the Telnet session  
must be in verbose mode 1 or 3 (see the Set verbose mode command  
in the Command and Response Table for SIS Commands).  
SIS Commands  
The switchers have SIS commands that you can use for operation and  
configuration. You can issue these commands from a PC connected to  
either of the DXP serial ports or the Ethernet port (see "Rear Panels  
and Connections" in the "Setup" section for connection information).  
Host-to-switcher Instructions  
The switcher accepts SIS commands through the LAN port or through  
either serial port. 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 switcher 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.

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data)  
EDID is a communications protocol or instruction set for the  
identification of display devices to computers using the DDC (Display  
Data Channel) transmission standard. EDID information consists of  
the resolution, refresh rate, and pixel clock information of a display  
device.  
You can apply an EDID to a selected input by selecting one of the  
following categories of EDID files, shown in the EDID table on the  
The EDID of the display connected to an output (numbers 1  
through the number of outputs on your DXP)  
One of 28 factory-loaded EDID files (numbers 9 through 36)  
One of the four user-defined files, to which you have assigned  
your own EDID values (numbers 37 through 40)
