5. Setup Instructions
The EXVIST extender kit is designed for plug-and-play operation. The units are pre-paired from the factory. Follow these steps for initial setup:
5.1 Basic Wireless Connection (1-to-1)
- Connect your HDMI source device (e.g., laptop, PC, PS4) to the HDMI IN port of the TX unit using an HDMI cable.
- Optional: Connect a local display to the HDMI OUT (loop-out) port of the TX unit to monitor the source signal.
- Connect your display device (e.g., HDTV, projector) to the HDMI OUT or VGA OUT port of the RX unit using an HDMI or VGA cable, respectively.
- Connect the provided power adapters to the DC 5V ports of both the TX and RX units, then plug them into power outlets.
- Ensure both units are powered on. The indicator lights will show connection status. After a few moments, the video signal should appear on your display connected to the RX unit.

5.2 IR Remote Control Extension
- Connect the IR Blaster cable to the IR OUT port on the TX unit. Position the IR Blaster emitter near the IR sensor of your source device (e.g., DVD player, set-top box).
- Connect the IR Receiver cable to the IR IN port on the RX unit. Position the IR Receiver in a location where it can receive signals from your remote control.
- You can now use your source device's remote control from the location of the RX unit to control the source device connected to the TX unit.
5.3 Wired Connection (LAN Extension)
For extended distances or through complex building structures, you can connect the TX and RX units via an Ethernet cable through a network switch or router.
- Connect the NETWORK (RJ45) port of the TX unit to your network switch/router using an Ethernet cable.
- Connect the NETWORK (RJ45) port of the RX unit to the same network switch/router using another Ethernet cable.
- Ensure both units are powered on. The system will automatically detect the wired connection and prioritize it for transmission, offering lower latency and increased stability.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Transmission Modes
The EXVIST extender supports both 1-to-1 and 1-to-many transmission modes.
Image: Diagram illustrating 1-to-1 and 1-to-many (up to 8 receivers) transmission modes for the wireless HDMI extender.
- 1-to-1 Mode: One TX unit transmits to one RX unit. This is the standard setup described in Section 5.1.
- 1-to-Many Mode: One TX unit can transmit to multiple RX units (up to 8 receivers). To use this mode, simply power on additional RX units and ensure they are within wireless range or connected to the same network as the TX unit. The TX unit will automatically broadcast to all paired RX units.
6.2 Re-pairing Units
If the TX and RX units lose connection or you need to pair new units, follow these steps:
- Connect both the TX and RX units directly with the provided RJ45 Ethernet cable.
- Power on both units.
- Press and hold the RESET button on both units simultaneously for approximately 5-10 seconds until the indicator lights flash, indicating successful re-pairing.
- Disconnect the RJ45 cable. The units should now be paired and ready for wireless operation.
6.3 RTSP Stream Extraction (TX Unit)
The TX unit supports RTSP protocol, allowing you to extract the video stream directly for playback via VLC player or other compatible software.
- Ensure the TX unit is powered on and receiving an HDMI input signal.
- Connect the TX unit to your network via the RJ45 port.
- On a computer connected to the same network, open VLC Media Player.
- Go to Media > Open Network Stream...
- Enter the RTSP URL, typically in the format:
rtsp://[TX_Unit_IP_Address]:554/stream(The default IP address is often 192.168.1.168, but may vary. Consult your network settings or device documentation for the exact IP). - Click Play to view the stream.
7. Maintenance
- Keep the devices clean by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
- Ensure the antennas are securely attached and positioned for optimal signal reception.
- Avoid placing the units in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
- Periodically check cable connections to ensure they are secure.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No video output on RX display. | No power; Incorrect connections; Units not paired; Signal interference. | Check power adapters and connections. Ensure TX and RX units are paired (see Section 6.2). Reduce distance or obstacles between units. Try a wired connection. |
| Video flickering or unstable. | Weak signal; Interference from other wireless devices; Excessive distance. | Relocate units closer to each other. Ensure antennas are properly oriented. Minimize obstacles. Avoid placing near Wi-Fi routers or microwaves. Consider wired connection. |
| IR remote control not working. | IR Blaster/Receiver incorrectly positioned; Cables loose. | Ensure IR Blaster is directly over the source device's IR sensor. Ensure IR Receiver has a clear line of sight to your remote. Check cable connections. |
| Noticeable video latency (delay). | Inherent to wireless transmission; Signal quality. | A slight delay (approx. 150ms) is normal for wireless extenders. For applications requiring minimal latency (e.g., fast-paced gaming), a wired connection is recommended. Ensure optimal signal strength. |
| Cannot connect via wired (RJ45) method. | Incorrect network configuration; Faulty Ethernet cable. | Ensure both units are connected to the same network switch/router. Verify Ethernet cables are functional. Check network settings if using static IPs (though usually automatic). |
