About the FOX Matrix Switchers
The FOX matrix switchers (see figure 1 for a FOX Matrix 14400
example) are configurable matrix switchers that distributes optical
signals. Fiber optic I/O boards route signals that are compatible with
all Extron FOX 500, FOXBOX, FOX 3G HD-SDI, and FOX 2G fiber
optic product lines. The matrix switcher routes any input signal to
any combination of outputs. The matrix switcher can route multiple input/output configurations simultaneously.
The Extron proprietary fiber optic signal that is generated by
Extron fiber optic transmitters, can include video, stereo audio,
and transmitter-to-receiver RS-232 serial communication. The video
component of the signal can be RGB video, Digital Visual Interface (DVI) video, SDI/HD-SDI video, or low resolution video, depending on
the transmitter and receiver.

NOTES: • Compatible optical signals are digital signals from
270 Mbps through 4.25 Gbps that are sent and
received via fiber optic small form factor pluggable (SFP) modules. The FOX matrix switchers support all
compatible optical signals, whether transmitted or
received by an Extron fiber optic system component or
not.
• The FOX transmitter-to-receiver communications,
including the serial link, occupy one matrix switcher
input and output..
This matrix switcher can also support the FOX return
(receiver-to-transmitter) serial communications, but
returning this signal stream to the transmitter occupies
a separate matrix switcher input and output.
By adding or removing I/O boards, you can expand and contract the FOX matrix switcher from an 16-input by 16-output matrix up to a
144-input by 144-output matrix (FOX Matrix 14400) or 320-input by
320-output matrix (FOX Matrix 320x).
NOTE:
On a fiber optic I/O board as delivered from Extron,
all transceiver modules are configured the same:
either all multimode or all singlemode. You can mix
multimode and singlemode fiber optic I/O boards in
a FOX matrix switcher, but you must ensure that you
connect the proper transmission mode fiber cables to the board.

Figure 2. Arrangement of Inputs and Outputs on the I/O Boards
The board position designators correspond to the input and output
numbers served by that position (1 - 16, 17 - 32, and so on).
The location designators, A through P, correspond to the transceiver
modules, numbered from left to right, each of which includes an
input and an output.
See figure 2. The input and output numbers supported by the I/O board in location 17 - 32 are as follows: A = 17, B = 18, C = 19,
D = 20, and so on.

Remote Control
This section describes using the remote control features of the FOX
matrix switchers to control the devices. Topics that are covered
include:
• Selected SIS™ Commands
• Installing and Starting the Control Program
• Accessing the HTML Pages
Selected SIS™ Commands
You can use Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands for operation and
configuration of the switchers. You can run these commands from
a PC connected to a serial port (item b and g) or Ethernet port
(item c) on the switcher.
Establishing a Network (Ethernet) Connection
NOTE:
If you connect to the switcher via the LAN port, and it
is the first time you have done so, you may change the default settings (IP address, subnet mask, and [optional]
administrator name and password) of the controller. See Configuring for Network Communication for details.
Establish a network connection as follows:
1. Open a TCP socket to port 23 using the IP address of the switcher.
NOTE:
The factory default IP address is 192.168.254.254.
The switcher responds with a copyright message including the date, the name of the product, firmware version, part number,
and the current date and time.
NOTES: • If the switcher is not password-protected, the device is now ready to accept SIS commands.
• If the switcher is password-protected, a password
prompt appears.
2. If the switcher is password-protected, enter the appropriate password.
If the password is accepted, the switcher responds with Login
User or Login Administrator.
If the password is not accepted, the Password prompt reappears.

Command
NOTE:
(unit to host)
The switcher accepts SIS commands through either serial port, the USB port, or the LAN port. SIS commands consist of one or more characters per command field. They do not require any special
characters to begin or end the command character sequence. Each
switcher response to an SIS command ends with a carriage return
and a line feed (CR/LF = ]), which signals the end of the response character string. A string is one or more characters.
Response
Host-to-Switcher instructions
ASCII Command
Telnet connections to a switcher can be used to monitor
for changes that occur on the switcher, such as front panel
operations and SIS commands from other Telnet sockets or a
serial port. For a Telnet session to receive change notices from
the switcher, the Telnet session must be in verbose mode 1 or 3. See the Set verbose mode SIS command. In verbose mode 3, the Telnet
socket reports changes using messages that resemble SIS command
responses.
(host to unit)
Verbose Mode
Tie input X! to output X@
Example (see Note, above):
A switcher can have up to 200 simultaneous TCP connections,
including all HTTP sockets and Telnet connections. When the connection limit is reached, the switcher accepts no new connections
until some have been closed. No error message or indication is given
that the connection limit has been reached. To maximize performance of your switcher, keep the number of connections low and close unnecessary open sockets.
• Commands can be entered back-to-back in a string, with no spaces. For example: 1*1!02*02&003*003%.
• The matrix switchers support 1-, 2-, and 3-digit numeric entries (1*1!, 02*02&, or 003*003%).
• The ! tie command, the & tie command, and the % tie command can be used interchangeably.
• The ! read tie command, & read tie command, and the % read tie command can be used interchangeably.
Number of Connections
NOTES:
Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at
5 minutes and periodically issuing the Query (Q) command
to keep the connection active or disconnecting the socket
and reopening the connection when necessary.
Create ties
NOTE:
Additional description
The Ethernet link times out and disconnects after a designated period
of time of no communications. By default, this timeout value is set

Starting the Program
1. Click Start > Programs > Extron Electronics > Matrix
Switchers > MATRIX Switcher + Control Pgm.
The Comm Port Selection window appears.
b. If the switcher is password-protected, enter the appropriate
administrator or user password in the Password field.
c. Click Connect. The Matrix Switchers Control Program is ready
for operation.
Accessing the HTML Pages
Another way to operate the switcher is via its factory-installed
HTML pages, which are always available and cannot be erased
or overwritten. The HTML pages pre-loaded on the switcher are
accessible through its LAN port, connected via a LAN or WAN, using
a web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. See item g, on
page 10, for connection information.
Configuring for Network Communication
2. Choose the comm (serial) port that is connected to the switcher or
IP [LAN].
NOTE:
For a comm port, check the baud
rate displayed in the Comm Port
Selection window. If you need to
change the baud rate, click the
Baud button and double-click the
desired baud rate.
Click OK.
If you selected a serial port in step 2, the Matrix Switchers Control
Program is ready for operation.
3. If you selected IP [LAN] in step 2, the IP Connection window
appears.
The first time you connect a PC to a switcher via its LAN port, you
may need to temporarily change the IP settings of the PC in order
to communicate with the controller. Then you must change the
default settings of the controller (IP address, subnet mask, and
[optional] administrator name and password) in order to use the unit
on an intranet (LAN) or on the Internet. After you have set up the
FOX matrix switcher for network communication, you can reset the
PC to its original network configuration.
NOTE:
The computer and the switcher must both be
connected to the same subnet on a LAN (using a
straight-through cable). Alternatively, you can use
a crossover Ethernet cable to connect the controller
directly to the computer.
Use the ARP command to configure the IP address as follows:
1. Obtain a valid IP address for the FOX matrix switcher from the
network administrator.
2. Obtain the MAC address (UID #) of the switcher from the label on
its rear panel. The MAC address should have this format: 00-05-A6xx-xx-xx.
3. If the switcher has never been configured and is still set for factory
defaults, go to step 4. If not, perform a Mode 4 system reset. For
detailed information on reset modes, refer to “Reset Operations”
in the FOX Matrix 320x and FOX Matrix 14400 User Guide.
NOTE:
a. Examine the Matrix IP Address field, which displays the last
Matrix IP address entered.
The switcher must be configured with the factory
default IP address (192.168.254.254) before the ARP
command is executed, as described below.
If necessary, enter the correct IP address in the field.
NOTE:
20
192.168.254.254 is the factory-specified default
value for this field.

4. At the PC, access the MS-DOS® command prompt, then enter the arp –s command. Type in the desired new IP address for the unit
(obtained in step 1) and the MAC address of the unit (from the rear panel of the unit). For example:.
arp –s 10.13.197.7 00-05-A6-03-69-B0 and then press
{Enter}.
After receiving the arp -s command, the controller changes to
the new address and starts responding to the ping requests, as
described in step 5.
NOTE:
You must ping the FOX matrix switcher as shown in
step 5 for the IP address change to take place. The response should show the new IP address, as shown in
the following figure.
5. Execute a ping command by entering “ping” followed by a space and the new IP address at the command prompt. For example:.
ping 10.13.197.7
Loading the Start-up Page
NOTES: • If your Ethernet connection to the matrix switcher
is unstable, try turning off the proxy server in your
Web browser. In Microsoft Internet Explorer, click

Maintenance and
Modifications
This section describes repairing and reconfiguring the FOX matrix
switchers by replacing components. Topics that are covered include:
• Removing and Installing an I/O Board or Blank Panel
• Removing and Installing a Power Supply Module
• Removing and Installing a Fan
Removing and Installing an I/O Board or Blank Panel
Circuit boards can be added or removed to increase or decrease the I/O configuration (size) of the switcher.
WARNING: The fiber optic I/O boards of the FOX matrix
switchers output continuous invisible light, which
may be harmful to the eyes; use with caution.
• Do not look into the fiber optic cable connectors
or into the fiber optic cables themselves.
• Plug the attached dust caps into the optical
transceivers when the fiber cable is unplugged.
NOTES: • On a fiber optic I/O board as delivered from Extron, all
transceiver modules are configured the same: either all
multimode or all singlemode..
You can mix multimode and singlemode fiber optic I/O
boards in a FOX matrix switcher, but you must ensure that you connect the proper transmission mode fiber
cables to the board.
• Typically, singlemode fiber has a yellow jacket and
multimode cable has an orange or cyan jacket.
• For proper cooling and air flow, boards and/or blank
panels should be installed in all locations during normal
switcher operations.
• See A Note on I/O Boards to understand the different
arrangement of connectors on the I/O boards.
