About this Setup Guide

This setup guide helps you to easily and quickly set up,

conﬁgure, and operate your Extron SMX matrix switcher using

step by step instructions. It covers basic operations using the

front panel controls and selected Simple Instruction Set (SIS™)

commands, how to load and start the Windows®-based SMX

Control Program, and how to connect to the built-in HTML

pages for switcher operation.

NAs used in this guide the terms “video model” and

“audio model” refers to any SMX switcher that switches

video and audio respectively. The terms "SMX matrix

switcher", SMX switcher", "SMX", and "switcher" are

refer to a typical SMX System MultiMatrix Switcher.

NFor detailed information on the product described in this

guide, refer to the SMX System MultiMatrix Switchers

User’s Manual (also referred to as the SMX User's

Manual), available at www.extron.com, or the Extron CD.

Installation and cabling

Step 1 — Mounting

Turn off or disconnect all equipment power sources and rack mount the SMX,

following the detailed instructions in chapter 2, SMX System MultiMatrix

Switchers User’s Manual found online at www.extron.com.

Step 2 — Connect inputs

Connect inputs from video and/or audio sources to the applicable I/O

board connectors marked “Inputs” (see table on page 1-2 for connector/

signal types).

Step 3 — Connect outputs

Connect audio and video output devices to the applicable I/O board

connectors marked “Outputs” (see table on page 1-2). See page A-3 for

audio connector wiring details

SMX System MultiMatrix Switchers • Installation

2-3

Also refer to the SMX System MultiMatrix Switchers User’s Manual at www.extron.com.

Step 4 — Connect control devices

LAN Ethernet port —Connect to an Ethernet LAN or WAN via this

RJ-45 connector bto control the switcher from a remote location, using

a PC’s Internet browser. See page A-2 for network cable termination

method.

The Ethernet connection indicator LEDs marked “Link” and “Act”,

indicate the status of the SMX’s Ethernet connection. The Link LED

lights green when connected to an Ethernet LAN, and the Act LED

ﬂickers amber, as the devices communicate.

NDo not use standard telephone cables, as they do not support Ethernet

or Fast Ethernet. Do not stretch or bend cables as transmission errors

could occur.

Remote port — For serial RS-232 or RS-422 control, connect a

host computer or control system via this 9-pin D connector d.

RS-232 protocol (default values):

• 9600 baud • 1 stop bit • no parity • 8 data bits • no ow control.

NSee chapter 4, “SIS™Programming and Control”, in the SMX User’s

Manual, for deﬁnitions of the SIS commands. See chapter 5, “SMX

Software” to install and use the control software.

Step 5 — Connect power

AC power connector —Plug in a standard IEC power cord from a 100 to

240 VAC, 50 - 60 Hz power source into this receptacle a.

Step 6 — Set plane address

Set the plane address (0-15) with the 16 position (0-F) rotary encoder m.

Installing/swapping the Input/Output boards

The I/O boards used in any installation will vary and can be installed

and changed as desired.

NAll boards are hot-swappable, and can be installed without shutting

down the switcher and removing the power.

Follow the instructions on the card supplied with the boards.
