4 UltraMatrix AV Installation and Operations Manual
Install the RoseControl switching software on the computer or laptop that will be used to control and switch the video
and optional audio inputs. Installation of RoseControl follows the standard Windows® type installation procedure.
Follow the onscreen instructions to properly install the software.
NOTE: All equipment should be powered on prior to installing the RoseControl software.
When the installation of RoseControl is complete, a RoseControl ICON will be placed in the start-up menu.
Click on the RoseControl Icon to invoke the switching software. If you have saved a previous configuration, you can
load that configuration by clicking on the “Yes” tab, select the configuration file, and load it to the OSD matrix.
If you click on the “No” tab, the “Configure Router” window will display as shown below.
Figure 2. Configure Router
For a single unit installation, configure the UltraMatrix AV as follows:
1. Select 1 for the “Router Count”.
2. Click on the down arrow for “Router Type” selection. For this model, select AV-8x8.
3. The “Inputs” and “Outputs” fields will change to match the router type selected (16 inputs and 16 outputs)
These fields can be manually changed to any value from 1 to 16. If you have 4 video input sources to switch to
8 displays, change the inputs field to 4 and the outputs field to 8. The switching matrix will automatically adjust
to a 4 x 8 switching matrix.
4. Select the “Com Port” to connect the serial communication cable to.
5. The “Router Timeout” field set how many seconds the program will wait for the UltraMatrix AV unit to respond
to commands. Example: 2.5 will wait 2 and 1/2 seconds. If 0 is entered, the unit will not wait for a response and
any errors that occur will not display.
6. When all fields are set to the correct values, click on the “OK” tab. The matrix OSD will display as
shown in Figure 3.
