DTV-RX02-HD Digital TV Receiver High Definition

Overview

As part of an AMX TDS (Television Distribution System) installation, the DTV-RX02-HD

High-Definition Receiver (FG1411-02) is located at the display to receive an incoming digital

TV signal from a DTV Transmitter, and convert it to a compatible HD format for the display

(FIG. 1).

AMX TDS System Description

The AMX TDS system can be deployed in any installation where digital A/V broadcast over IP

is desired, and delivers Digital TV and other encoded A/V signals to a number of TV sets, or

desktop PC's.

System Components

The AMX TDS system consists of several components, including a DTV-MA01 TDS

Management Appliance, Receiver (and IR Remote Controller), and Transmitter. See the AMX

TDS Operation/Reference Guide for details.

Network Considerations

Because of the high bandwidth associated with A/V distribution, the TDS system is typically

managed via a separate IT infrastructure. However, content may be streamed over the main

network if desired. Consult your IT representative to determine the proper network

configuration for the TDS system.

The AMX TDS system transmits audio/video using IP multicast. In order for this to work

satisfactorily, it is vital that the network switches are multicast-enabled in order to prevent

unwanted flooding of traffic on the network.

• Within the context of AMX TDS documentation. the term “Multicast-enabled” means

that all network switches carry out IGMP snooping, and one switch must function as the

IGMP querier.

• AMX Digital TV supports version 2 of IGMP.

Front Panel Components

External IR Receiver Socket

Use the External IR Receiver socket on the front panel to connect the included External IR

Receiver (60-1411-01).

The IR Receiver provides wired IR control of the RX02.

IR Receiver

The IR Receiver on the front panel allows the DTV-RX02-HD to use the DTV-RC01 Digital TV

Remote Control (included) for channel selection and control of local monitor volume and

power.

Rear Panel Connectors

All connectors are located on the rear panel of the DTV-RX02-HD, for ease of installation and

easy access. Refer to FIG. 1 for the connector layout.

10/100 Port

The 10/100 (RJ45) port on the rear panel provides 10/100 BaseT network connectivity.

Network Port Pinouts and Signals

The following table lists the pinouts, signals, and pairing for the 10/100 Network port.

Note: The maximum distance that a Receiver can be mounted from the Network Switch is

100m (328’).

Consult the Network Administrator for correct cabling from the DTV-TX Transmitter onto the

network.

• For remote connectivity, the Firewall may have to be configured to open port 2008 for

remote connectivity over UDP.

• For remote connectivity, the Receivers will use ports 2008, 5000, 5001, 5002 and 5003

for remote connectivity over UDP.

Installing DTV-RX02-HD Receivers

DTV-RX02-HD Receivers receive TDS broadcasts from DTV-TX03-US Transmitters (via

Ethernet), and pass the signal to the end display-device via standard A/V connectors. DTV

Receivers do not connect directly to the Transmitters. Rather, they connect to Transmitters

indirectly via the LAN (using a network switch).

• One DTV-RX02-HD Receiver is required for each display device. The Receivers are

designed to be mounted on or near the display devices.

• Each DTV-RC01 remote controller is associated with a Receiver via options in the

TDS Configuration Manager. See the AMX TDS Operation/Reference Guide for

instructions.

Applying Power to the Receivers

Each DTV-RX02-HD Receiver receives 12 VDC power via the 12VDC POWER connector

on the rear panel (FIG. 3).

Note: This connector is intended to be used only with the provided power supply.

Connecting DTV-RX02-HD Receivers to the Network

Use standard (Cat5/5e/6 UTP) network cable to connect the DTV-RX02-HD Receivers to a

network switcher. DTV-RX02-HD Receivers feature standard A/V connectors to deliver the

incoming TV signal to the display device (FIG. 4).

Setting the Receiver’s IP Address via the RS 232 Port

In most cases, all setup and configuration for both Transmitters and Receivers is done via

the Digital TV Configuration Manager. However, the Receiver’s IP Address can also be

specified using a local command line interface, accessible via the RS 232 (Serial) port.

In order to configure the network settings via the RS 232 Port, the Receiver must be placed

in Command mode.

To place the Receiver in Command mode, press ’Enter’ while the unit is booting up.

To reboot, re-cycle power to the unit by disconnecting and re-connecting the 12VDC

POWER connector on the rear panel.

Use the setip lan command to configure the network settings:

Note: The default baud rate is 115200.

Note: All DTV Transmitters and Receivers must have an assigned IP Address, Network

Mask, and Gateway Address in order for the DTV system to work correctly. This applies to

units that utilize DHCP and to units that have been assigned Static IP addresses. If you are

using DHCP, verify that these address assignments are provided by the DHCP Server.

Configuring DTV-RX02-HD Receivers

DTV Receivers are configured via the Digital TV Configuration Manager (see below).

Digital TV Configuration Manager

The DTV-MA01 TDS Management Appliance features a built-in web console called the

Digital TV Configuration Manager. The Digital TV Configuration Manager allows you to

configure the Receiver and all Transmitters in the TDS solution via a web browser on any

PC that has access to the DTV-MA01 in the TDS system.

These instructions assume that the TDS System has been installed, and that the

DTV-MA01 and a PC is connected to the LAN.

Accessing the Digital TV Configuration Manager

1. On any PC that has access to the LAN to which the DTV-MA01 is connected, open a

web browser and enter the following default URL to access the TDS Configuration

Pages (on the DTV-MA01):

http://<IP Address assigned to the DTV-MA01>:8080/TDS/web/TxNetworkPage.xml

2. Press enter to be prompted for the default User Name and Password for the DTV-

MA01:

•Default User Name: "amxdtv" (case-sensitive)

•Default Password: "admin" (case-sensitive)

Note: The User Name and Password can be changed via options in the System

Setup page (in the Digital TV Configuration Manager). See the AMX TDS Operation

Reference Guide for details.

3. Press OK to proceed to the Digital TV Configuration Manager. The initial view is of

the Transmitter Setup page (FIG. 5).

The command buttons along the top of the page provide access to the main areas of the

Digital TV Configuration Manager:

• Tx Setup - Click to configure DTV Transmitters

• Rx Setup - Click to configure DTV Receivers

• External AV - Click to add and configure external AV devices to be included in the

TDS system

• System Setup - Click to configure the TDS System

The links directly below the three command buttons (Network Settings, Channel Setup, IR

Settings, Firmware Upgrade & Diagnostics Logs) provide access to configuration options

specific to the current area of the Configuration Manager.

Additional Documentation

Refer to the AMX TDS Operation/Reference Guide (available online at www.amx.com) for

additional product information, details on connecting the AMX TDS system, using the

Digital TV Configuration Manager, upgrading firmware and descriptions of all supported

NetLinx commands.
