SMD202 • Setup Guide
The Extron SMD 202 is a compact, high performance media player and live stream decoder
for H.264 streaming applications. It provides the exibility to present a locally connected AV signal, decode a live streaming
source, or play back media les from internal memory, removable SD card, local USB, or network storage. The SMD 202 supports
a wide range of media le container formats and streaming protocols, making it adaptable for use with a variety of encoded
media. Advanced signal processing, scaling, and aspect ratio management supply high quality signals to AV displays. An intuitive,
interactive on-screen menu provides easy setup and source selection using front panel buttons or the optional handheld IR
remote control. Designed for pro AV applications, the SMD 202 can be controlled using Ethernet, RS-232, IR, or wired IR.
Install the SMD202
Before mounting and connecting the SMD202, turn off all devices that will be connected to it. The SMD202 is housed in a 1-inch
high, half-rack width, 6-inch deep metal enclosure that can sit on a table with the provided rubber feet or can be rack mounted.
Select a suitable location, then choose an appropriate mounting option.
Make all external device connections before applying power.

Control System and External Device Connections
The SMD202 can be congured and controlled from the RS-232 port or the front panel mini-type B USB cong port using
DataViewer, or from the LAN port using a standard Web browser. Since the LAN port must be connected for streaming source
input, Extron recommends also using it for conguration and remote control of the SMD202.
B
USB host port – Connect a USB compatible storage device to this port (see figure 1 on page 1).
C
SD Card slot – This slot supports SD, SD-HC, and SD-XC card types up to 512 Gigabyte card capacity and Class
10(UHS-1) data rates up to 25 Mbytes/sec. Mounted media is listed in the user le system under the media folder. The media
folder and contents are accessible from the File browser of the default Web interface (see Connect to the SMD202 and
Play a File or Stream: on page6).
H
IR In – Connect an (optional) IR receiver to this 3-pole 3.5 mm captive screw connector
to extend the range of the optional IR remote control (see gure at right). The handheld
IR remote provides access to the on-screen menus for conguration and for direct
control over playback (see the SMD202 User Guide).
I
RS-232 — To control the SMD202 using SIS commands over RS-232, connect the
host RS-232 cable to the rear panel (see the gure at right) with a 3-pole captive screw
connector for bi-directional (±5V) serial host control. The default protocol for this port is
9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no flow control (handshaking).
J
Reset button and LED — The SMD202 has four reset modes to restore default
conguration settings or all settings back to factory defaults (see gure at right). The
LED indicates the desired reset mode, and provides the reset status during the reset
operation. For information on using the reset mode, see the SMD 202 User Guide.
K
RJ-45 Ethernet connector (LAN) — Use a standard Ethernet cable to connect to a
network. The table (right) includes the default network settings of the SMD202.
The left side (amber) LED indicator on the LAN connector blinks in a pattern to indicate
the network link speed.
• Three blinks, pause — 1 Gbps
• Two blinks, pause — 100 Mbps
• One blink, pause — 10 Mbps
NOTE: The SMD202 LAN connection uses Auto MDI-X allowing direct connection of a control PC using a standard
straight through Ethernet cable.

ATTENTION:
• Always use a power supply provided by or specied by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all
regulatory compliance certication and may cause damage to the supply and the end product.
• Utilisez toujours une source d’alimentation fournie ou recommandée par Extron. L’utilisation d’une source
d’alimentation non autorisée annule toute conformité réglementaire et peut endommager la source d’alimentation
ainsi que le produit nal.
• Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities.
The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as the Extron AV processing equipment in an ordinary
location, Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet, podium, or desk.
• Sauf mention contraire, les adaptateurs AC/DC ne sont pas appropriés pour une utilisation dans les espaces
d’aération ou dans les cavités murales. La source d’alimentation doit être située à proximité de l’équipement de
traitement audiovisuel dans un endroit ordinaire, avec un degré2 de pollution, xé à un équipement de rack à
l’intérieur d’un placard, d’une estrade, ou d’un bureau.
• The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA 70, article 725 and the Canadian Electrical Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be
permanently xed to building structure or similar structure.
• Cette installation doit toujours être en accord avec les mesures qui s’applique au National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA70, article725, et au Canadian Electrical Code, partie1, section16. La source d’alimentation ne devra pas
être xée de façon permanente à une structure de bâtiment ou à une structure similaire.

Playback status indicator – Dual-color LED indicates the current state of playback operation.
• Solid Green – The SMD202 is actively decoding a stream or playing a le.
• Blinking Green – A stream or le is selected for decoding, but playback is paused.
• Off – The selected source is not being decoded.
• Solid Red – Lights during playback errors and when the source is unavailable.
C

• Solid Green – Indicates network conditions are favorable for the current source. The LED is also lit if the current source
is a local le.
• Red/Green – When ashing red and green, source or network conditions are marginal and might compromise image or
audio quality.
• Solid Red – Indicates server or network conditions are poor and are compromising video or audio quality.

Enter button – Press to make a selection on the interactive OSD menu.
Change the IP Address using the OSD menus:
1. Connect the external power supply to a 100 to 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz power source. The SMD202 powers up and undergoes
a self testing sequence.
2. Power up the display device. The SMD202 reads the EDID of the display and sets the output resolution and format.
3. Press Menu (see figure 5,

IR remote control number buttons.
NOTE: Press the front panel buttons quickly to accelerate the numbers in the octet. As you press faster, more numbers
are skipped so that the time locating the final number is reduced. You can also accelerate through the numbers using
the IR remote control. The longer you hold the Up or Down button, the faster it accelerates through the number eld.
9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 for the next three octets.
10. Press the Enter button to accept the new value or press the Menu button to cancel the changes.
11. In the same manner, repeat steps 4 through 10 to congure all communications settings.
12. When you are nished conguring the communications settings, press Menu on the front panel or the remote to exit the OSD.
Alternatively, you can use the following SIS commands to enable and disable DHCP, view and congure the IP address, and
change the subnet mask. Use DataViewer, available from the Extron Web page, on a control PC via any of the control system
connections to send commands to the SMD202 and view the results (ee the SMD202 User Guide for additional information).
