The Extron SSP 200 is a high-performance surround sound processor that automatically decodes Dolby®, DTS®, and PCM

formats from digital input sources to discrete audio outputs. Providing up to ten built-in balanced analog outputs, the SSP 200

provides the flexibility needed for pro A/V applications in corporate, commercial, and education environments. It supports

the latest immersive formats of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X plus legacy Dolby and DTS formats. An upmix function synthesizes

exceptional multichannel audioSOfrUoRmCEstereo content. The SSPIN2P0U0Tfeatures an HDMI inpuVtOwLiUthMEloop through, coaxial and optical
digital inputs, and an analog stereo input. It is designed for integration into pro A/V installations, featuring a compact, half-rack
1 2 3 4 5 metal enclosure, RS-232 serial and LAANTMOcSontrol, and balanced line level outputs.

The SSP 200 (A) uses an IEC power cable to connect to a 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz, power source. The SSP 200 (B) accepts one HDMI input with embedded audio, three digital inputs, and one analog input. In addition, there is
an HDMI loop out (through) connector. · Input 1 accepts digital signals through an HDMI cable, supporting HDMI version 2.0 with HDCP version 2.3 compliance. · Input 2 accepts a 75 ohm unbalanced digital coaxial S/PDIF input. · Inputs 3 and 4 accept digital signals through S/PDIF optical (TOSLINK®) cables. · Input 5 accepts a balanced or unbalanced, stereo or mono, analog input through a 6-pole captive screw connector.
Connect an EXP-enabled device to the DMP expansion port (C) for a digital audio connection using Extron proprietary protocol.
Use the included one-foot long shielded CAT6 cable to connect the SSP 200 to a Primary EXP-enabled device (see the SSP 200 User Guide for EXP bus operation details).
The ten outputs (H) are balanced or unbalanced, line level, analog signals made available through captive screw connectors
providing outputs for the following surround sound channels.

B Configuration port -- The SSP 200 can be configured through PCS or by using SIS commands through this USB mini-B
port or through the LAN and RS-232 ports on the rear panel. In addition, this configuration port is used for firmware updates from a PC.
C Input Source format indicators -- The bank of eight LEDs identify the format of the audio input. D Input selection buttons -- Push one of the buttons to select between the five audio inputs. When a button is selected, the
button lights green indicating it is the active input. For digital inputs 1 through 4, the button turns amber when it is selected and the digital clock signal has not been detected.
E Volume adjustment knob and LED bar -- Use the rotary encoder to adjust the output volume from 0 to 100. The default
setting is 80.
Configuration and Operation
Extron PCS To configure and operate the SSP 200 using PCS, install the software (available on the Extron website, www.extron.com) to a PC connected to the processor via Ethernet (using the LAN connection) or the front panel USB configuration port. After the installation, start the program and connect to the device (see the SSP 200 User Guide at www.extron.com). For full instructions while operating PCS, press <F1> on the keyboard or click the ? button in the software and select Help File.
Toolbelt Software To manage the SSP 200 using Toolbelt, install the software (available on the Extron website, www.extron.com) to a PC connected to the processor via Ethernet (using the LAN connection). After the installation, start the program and connect to the device by using Device Discovery to locate and then select the desired device. For full instructions while operating Toolbelt, press <F1> on the keyboard or click the Help button in the software and select Toolbelt Help.
Internal Web Pages To configure the SSP 200 using the factory-installed web pages in a web browser, connect the LAN connector to a LAN or WAN. The default IP address is 192.168.254.254. There is a limited amount of configuration that can be performed with the web pages (see the SSP 200 User Guide at www.extron.com).
SIS Commands To configure the SSP 200 with SIS commands via an RS-232, USB, or Ethernet connection, use the Extron DataViewer utility or a control system to send and receive SIS commands. For a list of SIS commands and variables, see the SSP 200 User Guide at www.extron.com.
