HDTVSupply WolfPack™ Build your own Seamless Modular Component Matrix Switcher Chassis using an integrated Component video and Component audio modular Component chassis. The chassis back plane allows various technologies, like Component, to be converted and switched eliminating external converters. A Component Matrix Switcher allows any input to be routed to any output, or the same input to be routed to all outputs, or any combination using Component input and Component output cards or other cards of different or mixed technologies. A built-in LCD screen lets you view your selections directly on the front of the Component matrix switcher. An optional 7-inch Color Touch Screen can also be used for status & control.The core of these Component Seamless Modular Component Matrix Switcher Chassis consists of its highly configurable backplane that supports up to 36-seamless Component input cards & up to 36-seamless Component output cards. You can control the Component Matrix Switcher via its iOS or Android app, a few simple buttons taps from the front panel buttons, a WEB GUI Browser control or the Dual RS-232 serial and LAN ports. Our Modular Component Matrix Switchers also can support high-resolution Component sources routed to Component displays, monitors, projectors, etc.
This Modular WolfPack Modular Matrix System has dual RS232 ports on the back of the chassis that can be used (1) as a back-up control if one malfunctions and (2) you can use the 2nd-RS232 port to control the Matrix Switcher at the same time as the first. The same for the 2-LAN ports.
Hardware Scaling via DIP Switches on both in and out cards: The 8-pin DIP switch on the cards are for the up/down manual scaling of resolutions. Each HDMI card has an 8-pin DIP switch to select multiple resolution settings to conform to your HDMI source devices and the HDMI destination devices.

These modular matrix switchers can usually be integrated with many third party control systems using the RS232 port on the back of the matrix.
For experienced AV hardware and software professionals who want to write their own drivers for 3rd party control systems from:
- AMX™
- Control4™
- Creston™
- RTI™
- DTVGameControl™
- Elan g!™
- Media Switcher™
- OnControls™
- Savant™
- SimpleControl™
- SwitchItUp™
- SAVI Control™
- URC Control™
...and we have created a simple and very easy to use RS232 script to write your own drivers.
EXAMPLE: If you want to switch input 8 to output 1, 8, 16, the RS232 command would be x1&8&16. and notice the command has a period (.) at the end of the string. The matrix even replies "OK" when the right command is received and shows "ERR" when receiving a wrong command. Here is the RS232 User Manual if you want to write your own drivers.
How to use the info:
END USER: If you are an end user and want to have a whole-house control system from any of the above 3rd party control houses but your budget can't support the price you were quoted, do the following:
- Call us for a quote
- Once you get our quote call a 3rd party control reseller or installer in your area and tell them "Here is the hardware I want to use, please give me a quote on writing the software and installing all of the hardware at my location." You usually can save $1,000s on larger systems.
CAVEAT: We are not certified by any of the above 3rd party control systems companies nor have the necessary hardware to verify, troubleshoot and support the 3rd party writing of the code. We do warranty, though, that the RS232 script in the above RS232 Users Manual has and will work to control the matrix directly.
