DIGI-HD60C Installation Guide

Cabling

Twisted Pair Wiring - Use T568B wiring for Cat5e/6

connection between send and receive units. If using

shielded cable, be sure to use shielded connectors, and

terminate the cable drain wire to the connector shell.

RS232 Wiring

– The DIGI-HD60C units include terminal blocks

that can be used for RS232 pass-through connection. You should

consult the owner’s manual of the devices you are connecting for

more information on pin out. Be sure to connect the DIGI-HD60C

RX pins to the TX pins of the connected device, and connect the

DIGI-HD60C TX pins to the RX pins of the connected device.

Connect the GROUND connection on the DIGI-HD60C to the

GROUND connection of the connected device. For your benefit,

we will illustrate how to properly pin out a straight-through

cable, using the DIGI-HD60C set to extend the signal.

IR Extension

You can use the IR TX and RX ports on the DIGI-HD60C to extend

the signal from your remote controls. This will allow you to

control the source, or the display, depending upon how you

connect the devices. The DIGI-HD60C supports bi-directional

communication, so you may send IR commands from the RX to

the TX and from the TX to the RX simultaneously. Be sure to use

Intelix DIGIB-EYE and DIGIB-EMT products, as 3

rd

party products

are not supported. The IR system is 5v, and you cannot connect

these ports directly to most IR distribution systems. If this is

necessary, please contact the Intelix Applications Department for

assistance.

IR RX – Connect the DIGIB-EYE to this port. The DIGIB-EYE is an IR

receiver (target). Point your IR remote at this device, and the IR

signal will be transmitted to the TX port of the other extender.

IR TX – Connect the DIGIB-EMT to this port. The DIGIB-EMT is an

IR emitter. Attach the DIGIB-EMT head over the IR window of the

device you wish to control. The DIGIB-EMT will emit IR

commands received by the DIGIB-EYE from the other extender.

Troubleshooting

Symptom

Possible Solutions

No signal

Link LED is off

Verify that both ends of the twisted pair cables

use T568B crimp pattern.

Verify HDMI cables and source and destination

HDMI ports are operational.

Link LED is blinking

Reterminate Twisted Pair cable

Replace Twisted Pair cable

Reduce Twisted Pair cable length

No signal

Verify the power supplies are connected to

both the send and receive baluns.

Verify the power LEDs on both the send and

receive units are brightly illuminated.

Unusual colors in the

video

Power off the destination device and power it

back on to force renegotiation.

Unplug and re-plug the HDMI cable from

receive to force renegotiation.

Important notice:

Do not attempt to disassemble or alter the extender

housing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the

unit. Doing so will void your warranty.

To minimize the possibility of equipment damage from

electrostatic discharge (ESD), all source and destination

equipment must be powered off during installation.

Do not connect the extender to a telecommunication

outlet wired to unrelated equipment. Doing so may

damage the unit or any connected equipment. Ensure all

connected twisted pair cabling is straight-through (point-

to-point).
