Basic Operation LED Status The Power Link LED indicator on the Sender and Receiver unit provides basic information on the current status of the 4K Ultra HD HDBaseT Extender w/ 2-way IR and POL. The information, in the table below, applies to both the Sender and Receiver unit. Status Description Solid blue • The Sender / Receiver unit is powered. • Link integrity between Sender and Receiver unit is good. • Link integrity is compromised.
Basic Operation Bidirectional IR Control Controlling the Source from the Viewing Location 1. Connect an EXT-RMT-EXTIRN IR Extender (1 pc included) to the IR In/Ext port on the Receiver unit. If using an automation system, connect the 3.5mm mini-stereo connector from the IR In/Ext port on the Receiver unit to the automation system. IR signals are transmited over the Link cable. 2.
Basic Operation Bidirectional IR Control Controlling the Display from the Source Location 1. Connect an EXT-RMT-EXTIRN IR Extender (1 pc included) to the IR In/Ext port on the Sender unit. If using an automation system, connect the 3.5mm mini-stereo connector from the IR In/Ext port on the Receiver unit to the automation system. IR signals are transmited over the Link cable. 2. Connect an EXT-IREMIT IR Emitter (1 pc included) from the IR Out port on the Receiver unit to the IR sensor on the display.
Basic Operation Bidirectional IR Control Controlling the Source / Display from Different Locations Information Additional IR extenders (Gefen part no. EXT-RMT-EXTIRN) and IR emitters (Gefen part no. EXT-IREMIT) will be required for this configuration. Using bidirectional IR, the 4K Ultra HD HDBaseT Extender w/ 2-way IR and POL allows the source and/or display to be controlled from the Sender or Receiver unit. Refer to the diagram, below, for connection details.
GTB-UHD-HBTL-S DIP Switch Configuration IR Out IR In/Ext Sender unit ON RSN 1234 GTB-UHD-HBTL-R ON RSN 1234 Link IR In/Ext Power ON Link 24V DC Receiver unit Basic Operation Link On the bottom of both the Sender and Receiver unit are a set of DIP switches. The Sender unit has a bank of four DIP switches. The Receiver unit has a bank of two DIP switches. See the following pages for DIP switch settings.
Basic Operation DIP Switch Configuration Each of the following sections describe the DIP switch settings that control each feature. DIP switches that are not related to a specific feature have been grayed-out. Note that DIP switch settings can be used independently or in conjunction with other features, as desired. Information DIP switch 2, on the Receiver unit, is not used and is reserved for optional future expansion.
Basic Operation DIP Switch Configuration HPD Mode HPD (Hot-Plug Detect) is an HDMI feature that senses if the HDMI cable is disconnected from the source or sink device. Once this occurs, the HDMI link is re-initialized if necessary. The 4K Ultra HD HDBaseT Extender w/ 2-way IR and POL allows you to control the way HPD is handled. Description Sender unit HPD High • Both DIP switch 1 and 2 must be in the down (OFF) position when setting HPD high.

Appendix Surface Mounting Instructions The Sender and Receiver units can be mounted on any flat surface, as shown below (screws not included). There should be an inch or two of clearance between the edges of the unit and any walls or vertical surfaces to allow for enough clearance for connection and disconnection of the HDMI cables. For installation on a drywall surface, use a #6 drywall screw. When installing, it is recommended to use the center hole on a stud.
