Introduction

The HDSpider™HDMI 1.3 over Single Cat.5 Distribution Series provides the most

flexible solution by which the uncompressed, unmodified, and pure digital HDMI

signals with 7.1-channel audio can be transmitted to different locations over a long

distance. The cascadability of HDSpider™ series is virtually unlimited, allowing you

to extend HDMI/DVI displays almost anywhere.

The whole HDSpider™series products can be easily inter-connected to suit almost every

application through Cat.5/5e/6 cables. By taking the advantage of Cat.5/5e/6 cables,

installation work becomes so easy and particularly cost effective wherever the distribution of

HDMI signals is required.

OVERVIEW

HVE-9000 HDSpider™Long Range Cat.5 HDMI Receiver

Input Panel

HDMI Signal IN: Connect to the HDMI Signal OUT port on the HVE-9001, HVE-9002, HVE-9004,

or HVE-9008 with a Cat.5e/6 cable.

+5V DC: Connect to 5V 2A DC power supply.

Output Panel

Signal Level: Adjust the 8-level signal equalization control to the received HDMI signals.

The HDMI signal level varies from 0 (strongest) to 7 (weakest) for respective

transmission length from longest possible range to short distance. Dial the Signal

Level from 7 to 0 and stop turning the rotary switch whenever the audio/video is

playing normally. Inappropriate signal level setting may cause overpowering issues

that would shorten the product’s life significantly!

HDMI OUT: Connect to a HDMI display with a HDMI male-male cable.

PANEL DESCRIPTION

HVE-9001 HDSpider™Cat.5 HDMI Sender

Output Panel

HDMI IN: Connect to a HDMI source with a HDMI male-male cable

Mode: 0 = HDMI mode with surround sound (up to 7.1ch) audio output

1 = HDMI mode with stereo (2ch) audio output

2 = DVI mode

3 ~ 5 = Not in use

6 = Use default EDID profile

7 = Learn the EDID from the display*

Note for EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) learning

1. Connect the display which you want to read EDID with a HDMI cable to HDMI-IN on

HVE-9001 and dial MODE to 7 so the HVE-9001 can learn the EDID information from the

connected display. The LED on the RJ-45 connector will dim and bright again in a few

seconds, which indicates the EDID learning process is complete.

2. Dial MODE clockwise [

] from 7 to 0 or 1 for desirable audio setting and enjoy the

experience. DO NOT let the rotary control arrow pass by 6. Doing so will erase the

EDID just learned and restore the default EDID profile.

Output Panel

+5V DC: Connect to 5V 2A DC power supply unit.

HDMI Signal OUT: Connect to the HDMI Signal IN of the HVE-9000 or HVE-9900 with a

Cat.5e/6 cable.

Note for EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) learning

1.Don’t plug in HDMI cable to [HDMI In] when you want to restore default EDID or learn the

display’s EDID.

2.Please connect the display which you want to read EDID to HDMI OUT so the HVE-9002

can learn the EDID information from the connected HDTV.

3.To learn EDID from HDMI display, pull up-and-down the DIP switch 1 from OFF to ON, the

green light will dim and light to indicate the EDID learning process is complete. You

DON’T NEED to pull up the DIP switch again unless you want to learn another EDID by

pulling DIP switch 1 up and down.

Note

1If the HDTV shows video but without audio, please try to set audio mode to stereo.

2Factory default: Pin#1-OFF[©], Pin#2- OFF[©] for 1080p with stereo.

3If you encounter any unsolved audio/video output problem during system installation,

please turn to Safe Mode (Pin#1-OFF[©] & Pin#2-ON[ª]) to enforce the most compatible

720p stereo output for system check.

4Bypass means the matrix will maintain playing the original format of HDMI signals in video

and perhaps audio. By setting at this mode, the users may encounter compatibility issue

among different kinds of HDMI sources and displays. If you cannot get the audio and/or

video output normally at the system installation, please change the DIP switch setting to

default mode or even safe mode to verify the functionality of the device.

5Set Pin#1 at ON[ª]first then connect the HDMI Input to HDTV through a HDMI cable. Wait

for 20 seconds. The EDID learning procedure will be finished. If you want to learn the EDID

from another HDTV, you must set Pin#1 at OFF first and repeat this procedure.
