SIS Configuration

and Control

The XTP T HDMI and XTP R HDMI can be configured and controlled using Extron Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands or the XTP System Configuration Software (see XTP System Configuration Software on page 23). This section contains basic SIS communication details and SIS commands and responses when connected directly to an XTP T HDMI or XTP R HDMI. Topics in this section include:

•Host Device Connection

•SIS Programming Guide

•Command and Response Tables for Transmitter SIS Commands

•Command and Response Tables for Receiver SIS Commands

Host Device Connection

Use a computer running the HyperTerminal or Extron DataViewer utility, or a control system to make serial control of the transmitter and receiver possible. To connect directly to an XTP T HDMI or XTP R HDMI, connect the computer to the XTP HDMI transmitter or receiver through the front panel USB Config port.

SIS Programming Guide

Host-to-Device and Device-to-Host Communication

SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are required to begin or end a command sequence. When the XTP T HDMI or the XTP R HDMI determines that a command is valid, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. All responses from the transmitter or receiver to the host end 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.

The XTP R HDMI also includes various audio extraction options, allowing users to separate audio from the HDMI signal for independent audio processing.

On the other hand, the XTP T HDMI serves as a transmitter within the same ecosystem, designed to convert HDMI video and audio signals into a format suitable for long-distance transmission. This device also supports 4K resolution and comes with a variety of input options that can cater to diverse installation needs. The XTP T HDMI is equipped with scaling capabilities, enabling users to select a preferred output resolution to match display capabilities, ensuring optimal performance in varied AV environments.

One of the standout technologies included in both the XTP R HDMI and XTP T HDMI is the Extron XTP technology, which provides a robust and reliable way to distribute AV signals over a single twisted pair cable. This technology allows signals to travel distances up to 330 feet (100 meters) without compromising signal quality. Additionally, both units support various formats, including HDMI, allowing for comprehensive compatibility with various sources and displays.

The XTP systems offer flexible setup options with features such as EDID communication, which ensures that the source device can communicate effectively with the display for the best possible image quality. Furthermore, integration with Extron’s proprietary Global Configurator software facilitates simplified configuration and programming, leading to smoother installations and management.

In summary, the Extron XTP R HDMI and XTP T HDMI are essential components for professional AV setups, providing excellent performance in signal transmission with advanced features and technologies that ensure superior integration and functionality in diverse applications.
