3 INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 SWITCHER LOCATION AND PLACEMENT
Binary HDMatrix switchers are designed to deliver unsurpassed technology with superior performance. How-
ever, where you install the switcher can have a large eect on the performance that you receive, and the life of
the unit. Here are some guidelines to follow when installing a B-300-HDMATRIX Switcher.
• Be sure that the unit is in a well-ventilated area that provides adequate cooling.
• Do not block the cooling vents located on both sides of the unit.
• Do not place the unit on carpeting or any similar material.
• Do not install the unit near a source of heat, or in an extremely humid or wet location.
• If your installation lacks good air ow (such as solid cabinet doors or wall-mounted racks), it may be
necessary to create ventilation to allow outside air into the space.
• Allow a minimum of 3” of free air space on either side of the unit. (Does not apply to rack mounting)
• Allow a minimum of 2” of depth behind unit to accommodate cables and connectors.
• When placing on a cabinet shelf, position the unit with all feet resting on a solid level surface.
3.2 RACK INSTALLATION
The B-300-HDMATRIX can be mounted in a rack with the front or rear panel facing outward. This allows for
easy access to the connections for installations that do not require the front panel of the unit to be accessed.
When mounting the rear panel facing out it is recommended that an IR receiver or Automation System is used.

CAUTION: Connections 1 and 2 provide power for IR receivers that can damage ashers and
Automation Systems. Check carefully before plugging an IR Flasher or IR Receiver into the
respective IR sockets. Warranty will not cover the damage.
See Section 5 IR Control Connections for proper cabling.
1. IR Receiver
In addition to using the front panel IR receiver, the B-300-HDMATRIX may also be controlled with IR using the rear
panel IR Receiver Input. Connect an IR Receiver or Automation System to control the switcher functions such as
source (inputs) and output selection. This connection only provides control of the switcher, IR sent to this input
is not sent to any other location. Note that when using a Automation System the 12V power must be removed to
avoid damaging those devices as explained in Section 5 IR Control Connections.
2. IR Input to Room
IR signals sent to this input are transmitted via the Cat5E/Cat6 to the B-300-HDMATRIX-RCVR connected to the
corresponding B-300-HDMATRIX-4x4 outputs. Connect an IR Receiver or a Automation System for pass-through
of IR signals to a room where a B-300-HDMATRIX-RCVR is connected. Note that when using a Automation
System the 12V power must be removed to avoid damaging those devices as explained in Section 5 IR Control
Connections.
3. IR Output From Room
IR from the B-300-HDMATRIX-RCVR is transmitted over the Cat5E/Cat6 from the room to the B-300-HDMATRIX-
4x4 and out the corresponding IR Output From Room 3.5mm jack. Connect an IR asher or Automation Systems
IR input for pass-through of IR signals from a room where a B-300-HDMATRIX-RCVR is connected.
For example:
IR signals received from the B-300-HDMATRIX-RCVR connected to Output 4 Cat5/6 are sent to IR Output from
Room jack 4.
4. All IR Out
All IR signals coming from a room via the B-300-HDMATRIX-4x4 (IR Output From Room) are summed on this
output. Connect an IR Flasher, IR Connecting Block or Automation System to this connection. If control of the
B-300 HDMATRIX-4x4 from rooms is required, use an IR Flasher connected to the From Room output or the All IR
Output, and place near the IR Receiver on the front panel of the B-300-HDMATRIX-4x4.

7 RS232 SERIAL CONTROL
The Binary™ HDMatrix receives control data on pin 2 (Rxd – Data Receive) and transmits control data on
pin 3 (TxD - Data Transmit). The connection cable between the HD MATRIX and the Automation System
will need to be configured so that pin2 (RxD) on the HD MATRIX is connected to the Automation Systems
Txd pin, and pin3 (TxD) on the HD MATRIX is connected to the Automation Systems Rxd (Receive Data) pin.
See below for details.
Configuration for the Automation System control ports can vary. Refer to the documentation for the
Automation System you are using to ensure proper connection and configuration. This port is also used to
communicate with a PC when using the PC Configuration Utility.
Refer to the Configuration Utility manual for details.
In addition to the RS232 DB9, the B-300-HDMATRIX-8x8 adds an Ethernet port that can be used to control the device
using Telnet Protocol. This port follows TIA 568 A/B standards; refer to these standards when creating wiring.

8 EDID CONFIGURATION
While most HDMI sources can provide full HD, the displays used within an installation may not support the
features available from the source. In these cases, the display may not play the content being provided by
the source. It is necessary to make sure each source will provide a Video and Audio format compatible with all
displays that will view that source. This can be accomplished by managing the EDIDs stored in the HDMatrix
for each source. The stored EDID is per source, so all display locations will see the same resolution and have the
same audio format when that source is selected.
The B-300-HDMATRIX-4x4 and B-300-HDMATRIX-8x8 provide sophisticated EDID management designed to make
sure that each source provides audio and video output that is compatible with all displays using that source.
The following section explains conguring EDIDs via the IR Remote. Before conguring the EDID, be sure to refer
to the source(s) and display(s) manuals for available features and resolutions for each device.
While all EDID congurations are available via the remote, a PC utility is also available on the HDMatrix support
page.
When conguring EDIDs via IR, the ENTER key must be pressed within 10 seconds of the last command in order
to be processed.
Source Setup
Most sources have selections for audio format and video resolution that can x the output so that it will not
change based on the EDID supplied by the connected display or switch. Please check each source and conrm
that the audio format and video resolution are set so that they will change based on the EDID negotiation.
Normally this is a setting called “Auto” or similar.
Display Setup
It is recommended that Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is turned OFF in all displays when using the HDMatrix.
This will provide for proper communications of video/audio signals and allow EDIDs to function at their optimum
performance. Refer to the display’s manual for information on how to turn this function OFF.
Verify that all displays are connected to the HDMatrix before continuing with EDID Conguration.
8.1 BASIC EDID CONFIGURATION
The quickest and easiest method for conguration is to use Auto EDID. When used the HDMatrix looks at the
EDID from each of the connected displays. It uses the lowest common denominator for video resolution and
audio format to create a new EDID and saves that in all of the Inputs.
Note: Auto EDID sets audio to 2ch for all inputs regardless of the capability of the connected displays. If multi-
channel audio is desired, embedded EDIDs or Learned EDIDs will need to be used.
When to use Auto EDID
• When all sources will be available on all displays
• Every display in the system accepts the same video and audio resolution from the sources
• As a rst step to conguration following up with advanced methods for particular displays and dedicated sources
For advanced EDID conguration when using legacy display and/or dedicated sources use embedded EDIDs or
learning as described in the following sections.

8.2 ADVANCED EDID CONFIGURATION
8.2.1 Embedded EDIDs Defaults
The B-300-HDMATRIX switchers contain 8 representative ‘embedded’ EDIDs that may be assigned to Inputs.
These EDIDs dene groups of video and audio capabilities that are useful for conguring sources in most systems.
When to use Embedded EDIDs
• 2ch audio is required for a particular display
• Lower video resolution is required for a particular display
Embedded EDIDs
Explanation of Embedded EDIDs
Video Resolution in the Embedded EDIDs is the highest resolution a connected source will output. If the
source is capable of 1080P@60, it will be required by EDIDs 1-6 to provide that resolution. However, if the source
is only capable of 1080i, it will output 1080i etc. It is assumed that any display that can accept the specied
video resolution can also accept all standard video resolutions less than that specied.
Color Depth is the maximum number of bits used to encode color. 24bit color depth is 8bits per color (Red, Blue,
Green) and 36bit color depth is 12 bits per color. When 36bit color is used, the bandwidth increases substantially.
This will dramatically reduce the distance between the switch and the display when using an extender.
3D indicates that the source can output 3D if it is available in the content.
Audio Format indicates the maximum number of audio channels as well as the audio format that the source is
allowed to output. For an Embedded EDID with 7.1ch Audio Format, the source device will output the highest
audio possible based on the content. For example, if 7.1ch is not available and 5.1ch is, the output will be 5.1ch.
The same holds true if 2ch is the only audio available from the source. Embedded EDIDs with 2Ch will limit
output of the source to 2ch regardless of the formats available in the content.
Embedded EDIDs 7 and 8 are provided for legacy displays that can only accept resolutions up to a maximum of
1080i / 720p. The 1080i is listed rst since almost all older HD displays can accept 1080i but not all can accept
720p. For these two Embedded EDIDs, (7&8) the source will output 1080i. Should 1080i not be available, the
source will output 720p. There is a possibility that 720p may not work for a very small number of displays
currently in use. If you have such a display, you will need to use a Learned EDID from the display to store in the
Input EDID of any sources that will be routed to that display.

8.2.2.2 Learning EDID to All Inputs
8.2.2.1 Learning EDID to a Single Input
8.2.2 Learning EDID
For more advanced EDID conguration, learning can be used to assign EDIDs. When used, the EDID from a
particular display is assigned to a particular source or all sources. This is useful when the system contains a
display that may not accept the highest resolution available from the sources.
It is also possible to learn EDIDs from displays connected via the 1CAT output. This is accomplished using the
optional B-300-HDMATRIX-ELD (EDID Learning Device) and the PC Conguration Utility. Please see the PC
Conguration Utility manual for details on this procedure.
When to Use Learned EDIDs
• An older display does not work properly with any of the embedded EDIDS.
• When the source is a PC it may be necessary to use a learned EDID. Learning EDID to a Single Input

9 ADVANCED CONFIGURATION
During the installation of an HDMatrix, there are settings that provide Advanced Conguration beyond the use
of the remote. These allow for ne tuning the HDMatrix when used under certain conditions and the settings
listed below are not available from the remote.
For more information refer to the Conguration Utility manual available on the SnapAV website.
9.1 PC CONFIGURATION OTHER SETTINGS
The following settings can be found in the PC Conguration Utility Other Settings menu.
9.1.1 IR RECEIVER ACTIVE
Use this setting to disable the front panel IR receiver to avoid IR command conicts and prevent IR ooding of
the HDMatrix. When IR is disabled, RS232 or IP must be used to control the HDMatrix.
9.1.2 FRONT PANEL POWER BUTTON ACTIVE
Use this feature to disable/Enable the front panel power button of the HDMatrix when using an Automation
System. This will prevent the HDMatrix from being powered OFF and preventing control of the device
from an automation system UI.
9.1.3 HDMI INPUT EQ SETTING
Use these settings when an HDMI image contains video noise and artifacts that can occur during switching
or viewing some HDMI sources or displays. Each input can be set to High when video noise is present. We
recommend that this be set to LOW as a starting point, and only changed should video noise be present on a
particular input.
