Crestron DM-TX-200-2G/400-3G Wall Plate DigitalMedia™ CAT Transmitters

Keyboard/Mouse Extender

When connected to a DM-MD series switcher, the DM-TX-200-2G and

DM-TX-400-3G function as keyboard/mouse extenders, allowing a USB HID

(Human Interface Device) compliant keyboard and/or mouse at the podium or

conference table to control a computer or other host device located at the central

equipment rack.

EDID Format Management

The DM-TX-200-2G and DM-TX-400-3G allow for management of the EDID

(Extended Display Identification Data) information that passes between the display

devices and input sources in the system. Using Crestron Toolbox™ software, the

format and resolution capabilities of each device can be assessed and managed

through the DM-TX-200-2G or DM-TX-400-3G, ensuring reliable operation by

instructing sources to output only the resolutions and formats that can be handled by

the displays and system wiring.

CEC Embedded Device Control

The primary objective of every Crestron system is to enable precisely the control

desired for a seamless user experience. DigitalMedia provides an alternative to

conventional IR and RS-232 device control by harnessing the CEC (Consumer

Electronics Control) signal embedded in HDMI. Through its connection to the

control system, the DM-TX-200-2G or DM-TX-400-3G provides a gateway for

controlling the connected source device right through the HDMI connection,

potentially eliminating the need for any dedicated control wires or IR probes.

Through proper CEC signal management, DigitalMedia allows you to take control of

each device in the system as you like.

Simple Wall Mount Design

The DM-TX-200-2G and DM-TX-400-3G are designed to be wall mounted using a

standard electrical box or plaster ring. The DM cable is terminated at the rear of the

transmitter using screw terminals. An array of indicators on the front of the

DM-TX-200-2G and DM-TX-400-3G provide for easy setup and troubleshooting,

verifying the status of connections and signal activity at a glance. Advanced

configuration is enabled through Crestron Toolbox software.

A Digital Upgrade for Legacy Systems

The DM-TX-200-2G and DM-TX-400-3G also afford perfect signal converters for

integrating DigitalMedia with analog-based systems like Crestron MPS,

QuickMedia

, and the CEN-RGBHV Series (all sold separately). A simple HD15

VGA cable connected between the output of an MPS system and the input of the

DM-TX-200-2G or DM-TX-400-3G allows every RGB, component, S-video, and

composite video input on the MPS to be converted to DigitalMedia*. Analog audio

is converted similarly through a simple unbalanced stereo audio cable. The

HDMI input may also be used to expand the input capabilities of the MPS system to

handle digital AV sources.

* The RGB input can accept component, composite, and S-video signals via direct interface to

Crestron MPS Series products, or through an appropriate adapter (not included). Input sync detection

is not provided for composite or S-video signal types through the RGB connection.
