Product Introduction

Thanks for choosing the PT-PMS-82S 8x2 multi-format seamless presentation matrix switcher with one PT-HDBT-200 extender kit! The matrix switcher simplifies meeting room and presentation space system integration by providing one HDBaseT input, four HDMI inputs, one VGA input, one DP input, one USB-C input, one HDBaseT output and one HDMI output. It also provides external audio inputs to be embedded in HDBaseT, HDMI and VGA video inputs respectively. Moreover, it provides MIX audio input for global audio.
The matrix switcher provides true 4K scaling up to 4K@60Hz@4:4:4. Both inputs and outputs are capable of providing 4K@60Hz@4:4:4 signals. The HDBaseT input and output provide an innovative solution with VLC technology, allowing transmission of HDMI 2.0 signals over a CATx cable while ensuring very high, original image quality. It is designed for use with the PT-HDBT-200 extender kit. The USB-C input is ideal for AV interfacing with newer MacBook, Chromebook, and Windows PC, as well as smart phones and tablets.
The matrix switcher supports auto switching on HDMI, HDBaseT and HDMI loop outputs based on TMDS activity signals sensing. It also allows users to control system functionality via Web GUI, RS232, IR and CEC. Additionally, users can control relay device such as the rise and fall of projector screen over RELAY ports.
The matrix switcher is designed to be the central component of AV system. It is ideal for applications where multiple signals with different resolutions must be optimized for displays. It is also suitable for presentation spaces where two displays are needed.

Third-party Device Control

The switcher supports RS232 pass-through control, the third-party device can be controlled by RS232 command, and the command format as shown below:

Command FunctionCommand Example
UARTPassThrough:Y.RS232 mode selection:
Y=0, Local Control: The RS232 port of the switcher is used to connect control device (e.g. PC) to control the switcher.
Y=1, HDBT Transmitter Pass Through: Establish RS232 pass-through communication between the switcher and the HDBaseT transmitter (e.g. PT-HDBT-200-TX). The RS232 port of the switcher can be used to transfer commands to control the third-party device which is connected to the HDBaseT transmitter.
Y=2, HDBT Receiver Pass Through: Establish RS232 pass-through communication between the switcher and HDBaseT receiver (e.g.PT-HDBT-200-RX). The RS232 port of the switcher can be used to transfer commands to control the third-party device which is connected to the HDBaseT receiver.
CommandFunctionCommand Example
/+[Y]/[X]:******.xxx: ASCII characters. Y: Represents the RS232 port. 1) Y=1: The RS232 port of switcher. 2) Y=2: The RS232 port of HDBaseT receiver. 3) Y=3: The RS232 port of HDBaseT transmitter. X: Represents the baud rate of third-party device. 1) X=1, 2400 2) X=2, 4800 3) X=3, 9600 4) X=4, 19200 5) X=5, 38400 6) X=6, 57600 7) X=7, 115200/+3/3:123456. Send the command “123456” to the third-party device. The baud rate is 9600.
