INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Use the free trial period or activate the driver at any time by assigning to this project the license you purchased from the driverCentral website (requires the driverCentral cloud driver).
- Ensure the GEFEN switch firmware is at the most recent level.
- Select the right GEFEN Matrix Model property. THIS IS IMPORTANT, as models have slightly different commands and responses.
- When using IP control, set the GEFEN switch to a static IP address or ensure it always receives the same IP address from the DHCP server via a MAC-based reservation.Enter the IP address in the Connections area.
- When using Serial control (by itself or as a backup to IP control), make the appropriate Serial connection. If both are connected and IP fails, the driver will use serial and revert back to IP when restored.
- Connect the HDMI inputs and outputs as well as room controls as appropriate. If your actual matrix switch supports less than 8 inputs or outputs, connect only the appropriate bindings, starting at 1 (or A).
