Connecting the Power Supply

Connecting the Power Supply

Connect the provided 12 VDC, 1 A power supply to the HDMI DA2 by following these instructions:

WARNING: Remove power before wiring. The two power cord wires must be kept

separate while the power supply is plugged in.

ATTENTION:

This product is intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit marked

“Class 2” or “LPS,” rated 12 VDC, maximum 1.0 A. Always use a power supply supplied or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end product.

Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities. The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as the Extron AV processing equipment in an ordinary location, Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet, podium, or desk.

The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 75, and the Canadian Electrical Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to building structure or similar structure.

1.Cut the DC output cord to the length needed.

2.Strip the jacket to expose 3/16 inch (5 mm) of the conductor wire.

NOTES:

The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical. The ideal length is 3/16 inches (5 mm). If the exposed section is longer, the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit between them. If it is shorter, the wires can be easily pulled out, even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.

Do not tin the wires. Tinned wire does not hold its shape and can become loose over time.

3.Verify the polarity of the wires.

4.Slide the exposed end into the captive screw connector and secure by tightening the screw.

5.Use the supplied tie wrap to strap the power cord to the extended tail of the connector.

For added convenience, the Extron HDMI DA2 features EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) management, which allows the device to communicate effectively with connected displays. This ensures that the source and display can agree on the optimal video settings, enhancing compatibility and performance across diverse equipment.

Another notable characteristic is the automatic input switching feature, which allows the device to seamlessly switch between multiple HDMI sources if used in conjunction with other Extron products. This is particularly useful in situations where multiple devices may need to be accessed without the hassle of manual intervention.

The HDMI DA2 is also designed with ease of use in mind. It includes LED indicators that provide users with real-time feedback on power, input selection, and signal status. This streamlined approach helps in quickly diagnosing any issues that may arise during operation.

In terms of installation, the DA2 is compact and rack-mountable, making it a versatile choice for any AV system setup. With its rugged build quality and reliability, the Extron HDMI DA2 is tailored for professionals who demand high performance and dependability from their audio-visual equipment. Overall, this HDMI distribution amplifier is a critical component for any AV system requiring superior signal management for multiple displays.
