[IHD-210PT/IHD-210PR] How can I convert the video source?
There are three ways to convert the video source. One is to use DIP switch, while the other is to set VLAN port and go with HDMI splitter (matrix).
A Tx (transmitter) supports DIP switch for 64 channels, and every time when you convert the source you have to switch DIP of all units to the same number.
To set VLAN to convert the video source, please refer to the topology below and imagine that the concept is based on your issue.
You can set up port-based VLAN for the transmitter (IHD-210PT), and then for the receiver (IHD-210PR). You can just dynamically swap the receiver port to a different VLAN for video source change. You can swap VLAN via Web interface of the switch.
Instructions about the topology above:
As for Test A
, we set port1 and port3 to a VLAN, and set port2 and port4 to another VLAN. The Rx will convert the source if we change the connection of Rx and switch from port3 to port4.
As for Test B
, we set port1 and port3 to a VLAN, and the Rx will convert the source if we issue the command via telnet to set port2 and port3 to a VLAN.
You also could use HDMI splitter (matrix) for converting the sources.
As you see, two sources are connected to the input of HDMI matrix and output to Tx, and then Tx and Rx are all connected to the switch. In this case, we use the HDMI matrix controller to select the source.
