Extron streaming encoders:
• NAV E 501 Encoder — Streams HDMI video and audio over a managed 1G IP network. Also supports USB and Ethernet extension.
• NAV E 101 Encoder — Streams HDMI video and audio over a managed 1G IP network.
NOTE: In this guide:
• The NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 are both referred to as an “encoder.” They are referenced by model name when differences exist.
• NAV encoders and decoders collectively are referred to as “endpoints.”
About the NAV System
The Extron NAV decoders and one or more compatible encoders form an AV distribution and switching matrix on an Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Managed IP
Network. The encoders are configured for low latency multicast streaming. The decoders are configured to join the assigned multicast group.
About the Encoder
A NAV encoder inputs an HDMI video signal and generates a video and audio stream that can be transmitted over an IP network using the Extron PURE3 Codec. The PURE3 Codec exceeds many of the performance characteristics of existing compression formats and provides exceptionally robust protection against network errors, making it ideal for qualitycritical applications.
The data stream can include:
• HDCP-compliant HDMI video (which can include embedded digital audio [SMPTE 299M and SMPTE 272M-A]) at resolutions up to 4k @ 60 Hz
• Optional analog audio
• RS-232 and IR control signals
• NAV E 501 only — USB 2.0 port control and data signals
• NAV E 501 only — An Ethernet Extension port allows communication to the same network

Figure 1. Typical NAV Application
The streamed NAV signal is routed using a managed network switch and can be dedicated to a specific VLAN. AV switching can be done via a control system by interfacing to the NAV decoder or the NAVigator.
NOTE: The RS-232 and IR communications are driven via a control system.
The encoder and decoder do not generate or respond to the RS-232 and IR communication signals.
About the Decoder
One or more compatible decoders, such as the NAV SD 501 or NAV SD 101, decode the data stream back into the original video and audio signal formats and output them locally.
System Interaction and Capabilities
Each encoder and decoder has an integrated web interface. All normal system configuration and control is via the web interface of the NAVigator. Using a computer on the same network and a standard web browser; such as Google Chrome™, Mozilla™ Firefox™, or
Microsoft ® Edge™; you can configure any encoder or decoder unit in the system.
The embedded audio can be transported as a 2-channel LPCM uncompressed stream.
Audio can follow video to the same decoder or be broken away to a different endpoint.
A dedicated RS-232/IR port, a secure platform device (SPD), is available for distributing
RS-232 and IR data with the coded/decoded video, such as for control of a projector. Tally and Contact Closure supports Extron Show Me Cables.
The units are housed in 1-inch high, half-rack width metal enclosures that can be mounted in any standard 19-inch rack or under furniture with optional mounting kits.
The external 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power supply provides worldwide power compatibility.

Connector and Cable Details
HDMI connectors
HDMI signals for 4K video run at a very high frequency and are especially prone to errors caused by bad video connections, too many adapters, or excessive cable length. To avoid the loss of an image or jitter, follow these guidelines:
• Do not exceed 12 feet (3.6 meters) on the encoder input or loop-thru output.
• Use only a cable designed for HDMI signals.
• Limit or avoid the use of adapters.
• Use only cables specifically intended for HDMI or DVI signals. Use of non-HDMI or non-DVI cables or modified cables can result in a missing video output.
Lockit Lacing Brackets
To securely fasten an HDMI or USB cable cable to a device:
1. Plug the rear panel HDMI or USB (NAV E 501 only) cable into the panel connection (see figure 3, 1 ).
3
Figure 3. Installing the LockIt Lacing Bracket
2. Loosen the HDMI connection mounting screw from the panel enough to allow the
LockIt lacing bracket to be placed over it ( 2 ). The screw does not have to be removed.
3. Place the LockIt lacing bracket on the screw and against the HDMI connector, then tighten the screw to secure the bracket ( 3 ).
ATTENTION:
• Do not overtighten the HDMI connector mounting screw. The shield to which it fastens is very thin and can easily be stripped.
• Ne serrez pas trop la vis de montage du connecteur HDMI. Le blindage auquel elle est attachée est très fin et peut facilement être dénudé.
4. Loosely place the included tie wrap around the HDMI connector and the LockIt lacing bracket as shown ( 4 ).
5. While holding the connector securely against the lacing bracket, use pliers or similar tools to tighten the tie wrap, then remove any excess length ( 5 ).

NOTES:
• The length of exposed wires is important. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm).
• If the stripped section of wire is longer than 3/16 inch, the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit.
• If the stripped section of wire is shorter than 3/16 inch, wires can be easily pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.
• Do not tin the power supply leads before installing them in the connector. Tinned wires are not as secure in the connector and could be pulled out.
A balanced stereo audio connector consists of a tip, ring, and sleeve. An unbalanced mono audio connector consists of a tip and sleeve. When you are making connections for the units from existing audio cables, see the drawing at right to identify the tip, ring, and sleeve parts of the connector. The ring, tip, and sleeve wires are also shown on the captive screw audio connector diagram (see figure 4).

It is vital that your Ethernet cable be the correct cable type and that it be properly terminated with the correct pinout. Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 5e or CAT 6, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair
(STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet cables are limited to a length of
328 feet (100 meters).
NOTES:
• A CAT 5e cabling infrastructure is the minimum acceptable to support a NAV system. Anything less is insufficient.
• Do not stretch or bend cables. Transmission errors can occur.
The Ethernet cable must be terminated as a patch (straight-through) cable and must be properly terminated in accordance with the TIA/EIA T568-B wiring standard (see figure 6).

NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 Encoders • Installation and Basic Operation 12
Startup and Basic Operation
Power
The encoder can be powered in one of three ways:
•
Locally, from the included external power supply and via the power connector (see
on page 6).
• Remotely, receiving PoE via the NAV 1G/PoE+ port (see switch or from an optional PI 140 Power Injector.
); either from the network
•
Locally ( J ) and remotely ( G
), with priority on the NAV 1G/PoE+ port. If PoE voltage drops below a threshold, the encoder immediately transitions to the power connector with no effect on system operation.
When power is applied, the encoder runs a series of self-tests that blink the front panel
Power LED and all other indicators. The encoder then boots the NAV operating system. It can take approximately 45 seconds for self-test and system startup to complete. When the process is complete, the Power LED lights steadily.
NOTE: The encoder is NOT operational until the boot process is complete (the Power
LED is lit steadily).
Pairing Devices Manually
Manually pair devices as follows:
1. Use a Tweeker or other small screwdriver to press and hold the encoder front panel ID button for approximately 3 seconds, until the
ID LED blinks. The encoder enters pairing mode.
ID
2. One at a time, use a Tweeker or other small screwdriver to press and hold the decoder front panel ID button for approximately 3 seconds, until the ID LED blinks. Release the ID button. The decoder is now paired to the encoder.
3. Repeat step 2 for each decoder.
4. Use a Tweeker or other small screwdriver to press and release the encoder front panel
ID button. The encoder exits pairing mode.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 to pair decoders to other encoders.
NOTE: Units can be paired manually via the ID button, but they cannot be unpaired manually. To unpair units, use the embedded HTML pages of either the decoder (see the applicable decoder user guide) or of the NAVigator (see the NAVigator User Guide ).
The applicable user guides are available at https://www.extron.com
.
NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 Encoders • Installation and Basic Operation 13
Operation
After the encoder, all decoders, and their connected devices are fully booted up and operational (the Power LED on each unit is lit steadily) and the devices are paired, the system is fully operational. If any problems are encountered, ensure all cables are routed and connected properly.
System operation with a NAVigator
Your NAV system must include an Extron NAVigator, a system manager that configures and controls the AV streaming system. The NAVigator allows you to make changes to multiple endpoints in the system from a central location, simplifying operations such as making ties or bulk configuration.
The base version of the NAVigator can support up to 16 endpoints by default, but if a
LinkLicense is installed, support can be expanded to up to 240 endpoints, depending on the LinkLicense.
See the NAVigator User Guide , available at https://www.extron.com
for details.
Configuration and other operations
Configuration and more complex operation of the system is accomplished via embedded
, beginning on page 16) or Extron Toolbelt. Simple
Instruction Set (SIS) commands (see SIS Operations , starting on page 61) cannot be
issued directly to the encoder, but are issued via an Extron control system on the AV network using a process known as “encapsulation” (see the NAVigator User Guide , available at https://www.extron.com
for details).
Reset operations
The rear panel Reset button initiates three levels of resets (numbered 1, 4, and 5 for comparison with an Extron IPL product). The Reset button is recessed, so use a pointed stylus, ballpoint pen, or small screwdriver to access it.
See the
on page 15 for a summary of the modes.
ATTENTION:
• Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset mode may result in unintended loss of flash memory programming, port reassignment, or an encoder reboot.
• Étudier de près les différents modes de réinitialisation. Appliquer le mauvais mode de réinitialisation peut causer une perte inattendue de la programmation de la mémoire flash, une reconfiguration des ports ou une réinitialisation du contrôleur.
NOTES :
•
The reset modes listed in the table are separate functions, not a continuation from
mode 1 to mode 5.
• The modes listed close all open IP and other connections and close all sockets.

Control System
This section includes:
•
•
•
Global Configurator Plus and Professional
•
The encoder can be remotely controlled from a host device such as a computer or Extron control system. The controlling device communicates over the network via the NAV/PoE+ port (see
G on page 6).
Secure Platform Device
As a Secure Platform Device (SPD), the encoder is a system based device that communicates with an Extron controller and supports 802.1X port-based Network Access
Control. When applied, 802.1X authentication requires that all devices are approved before network access is granted.
The encoder communicates with compatible controllers such as Extron IPCP Pro and
IPL Pro series control products over a secure, encrypted channel. The encoder hosts multiple Secure Platform Interfaces, exposing control of the entire NAV system to connected primary controllers.
Toolbelt
The Extron Toolbelt utility is available on the Extron website . Toolbelt is a stand-alone
Windows ® application for the management of control systems. Toolbelt can automatically discover Pro Series controllers and devices and NAV devices on a network (see the Toolbelt
Help file ). You also can manually add devices, using the known IP addresses. Once you log in to a NAV device, such as a NAVigator or NAV E 101, you can perform tasks such as:
• Launch the embedded encoder HTML page after discovery.
• View the device and system information.
• View and edit network information.
• View and set SSL certifications.
• Use utilities such as Ping , Reset , and Reboot.
• Configure 802.1X security settings.
• View 802.1X status logs.
• Update the firmware to a selected device or group of devices.
NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 Encoders • Control System 57
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Certificates
Extron NAV devices ship with factory-installed SSL certificates created by Extron. If you want or are required to use a different SSL certificate at your installation site, then you can use system utilities in the Toolbelt software to change the SSL certificate at any time. The
Toolbelt Help File provides instructions on how to apply an SSL certificate to a device.
NOTES:
• You must run Toolbelt as an administrator.
• Some certificates require a passphrase that is created when the certificate is created. If a passphrase is required, you must enter that passphrase before uploading and applying the certificate.
NAV devices support standard OpenSSL certificate encodings such as .
pem (Privacyenhanced Electronic Mail) and .
der (Distinguished Encoding Rules) file types. PEM file types are ASCII encoded and are the required format for uploading to the device. DER file types are binary encoded and can typically have several file extension variations, such as .
crt and
.
cer . There are many standard tools that can convert from DER to PEM file encodings if needed.
NOTE: A DER format file must be converted to PEM encoding before uploading it to the device.
To properly create the certificate for uploading to Extron NAV devices, ensure that the certificate file meets the following requirements:
• Contains X.509 certificate information
• Contains public and private keys
• Uses PEM encoding
NOTE: ITU-T standard X.509 covers aspects of public key encryption, digital cryptography, certificates, and validation.
Contact your IT administrator for more information on what tools and policies are required to obtain or create the SSL certificate and, if necessary, the corresponding passphrase.
NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 Encoders • Control System 58
Global Configurator Plus and Professional
NOTE: NAV products can be used in control systems with the following Extron control products:
• IPCP Pro Processors such as the IPCP Pro 250
• IPL Pro Control Processors such as the IPL Pro S3
Global Configurator is an Extron control system configuration software for use in AV systems that include Extron Pro Series control products. Conditional logic, variables, and macros provide flexibility for elaborate control system designs. No direct programming knowledge is needed to use the program.
The functional logic is built into Global Configurator. You merely select the functions that you want to use. You can quickly set up schedules, macros, monitors, and the like, using available actions and commands, without having to write control script.
Global Configurator has two modes:
• Global Configurator Plus — Ideal for smaller applications requiring one control processor and one control interface.
• Global Configurator Professional — Suited for applications requiring multiple control processors, enhanced functionality, and advanced configuration. Access to Global
Configurator Professional requires ECP Certification.
In a NAV system with an Extron controller, such as an IPCP Pro 250, you can perform actions such as:
• Load device drivers for monitoring the status of and controlling devices with the NAV system.
• Upload GUI Designer interface layouts to touchpanels and third-party touch interfaces.
• Create the configuration containing all the settings for the control processor and the products with which it interacts in the NAV system.
• Upload the configuration to the control processor.
• Send limited commands (such as some SIS commands) via the controller to a NAV device (but without receiving a response from the device).
To obtain Extron control product software, you must have an Extron Insider account and contact an Extron support representative on the Extron S3 Sales and Technical Support
Hotline (see https:// www.extron.com
for the phone number in your region of the world).
Extron provides training to our customers on how to use the software. Access to the features of Global Configurator Professional is available to users who successfully complete
Extron Control Professional Certification.
For detailed descriptions and procedures to setup a control system with an IPCP Pro device and Global Configurator, see the applicable Global Configurator Help File .
NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 Encoders • Control System 59
Global Scripter
NOTE: NAV products can be used in control systems with the following Extron control products:
• IPCP Pro Processors such as the IPCP Pro 250
• IPL Pro Control Processors such as the IPL Pro S3
Global Scripter is a powerful and versatile control system programming software from Extron for AV systems that use an Extron Pro series control processor (such as an IPCP Pro 250).
Global Scripter, being programming (rather than just configuration) software, is much more flexible than Global Configurator. Global Scripter allows an integrator to write customized programs for his or her specific AV system. Using customized programming commands for configuration and control allows for larger AV systems than Global Configurator.
Global Scripter uses the easy-to-learn Python scripting language and includes the Extronexclusive Python library: ControlScript. ControlScript increases the productivity of AV programmers by incorporating functions used in common AV control system projects, as well as helpful documentation, reference material, and sample code. Global Scripter can insert specific AV devices (such as SPDs) and functions into the code.
In a NAV system with an Extron controller, such as an IPCP Pro 250, you can support many more devices (system controllers, NAVigators, and endpoints) than Global Configurator, send very specific SIS commands (as programmed code) and get feedback.
NOTE: Global Scripter software users and integrators other and must know how to program with Python and should know how to use Extron ControlScript.
For detailed descriptions and procedures to setup a control system with an IPCP Pro device and Global Scripter, see the Global Scripter Help File .
NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 Encoders • Control System 60
SIS Operation
The encoder can be remotely controlled, monitored, or configured using the following:
• A user-defined string consisting of SIS commands (see below)
NOTE: SIS commands cannot be issued directly to the encoder, but are issued via an Extron control system on the AV network using a process known as
“encapsulation”.
• Extron Toolbelt or a control system constructed using either Global Configurator Plus,
Global Configurator Pro, or Global Scripter (see Control System
on page 57)
• Built-in HTML pages (see
This section provides guidance on operation of the encoder via a string of commands and lists the SIS commands, including:
•
Host-to-Encoder Communications
•
•
•
Using the Command and Response Tables
•
SIS Command and Response Table
Host-to-Encoder Communications
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are required to begin or end a command character sequence. When a command is valid, the encoder executes the command and sends a response to the host device. All responses from the encoder to the host end with a carriage return and a line feed (CR/LF = ] ), which signals the end of the response character string. A string is one or more characters.
Encoder-Initiated Messages
When the encoder completes its start-up, it issues the following message to the host:

NAV E 501 and NAV E 101 Encoders • SIS Operation 61
Encoder Error Responses
When the encoder receives a valid SIS command, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. If the encoder is unable to execute the command because the command is invalid or it contains invalid parameters, the encoder returns an error response to the host. The error response codes are:
E10 — Invalid command
E12 — Invalid port number
E13 — Invalid parameter
E14 — Invalid for this port configuration
E17 — Invalid command for signal type
E22 — Busy
E24 — Privilege violation
E25 — Device not present
E28 — Bad file name or file not found
The command operation is aborted with no other indication.
Using the Command and Response Tables
The command and response tables
begin on page 63. Symbols are used throughout the table to represent variables in the command and response fields. Command and response examples are shown throughout the table. The ASCII to HEX conversion table below is for use with the command and response table.

The following table lists common NAV alarms shown on the Monitoring page (see
on page 43) and suggested remedies:
The endpoint failed to be assigned to a
NAVigator.
Cause
The endpoint is reporting a conflicting assignment status.
Remedy
Verify that the endpoint is not assigned to another NAVigator. If it is, it must be unassigned from the previous NAVigator.
If the previous NAVigator is unavailable,
(see page 14) on the conflicted endpoint.
Confirm that the NAVigator has not reached its endpoint assignment limit.
If a device has been decomissioned from the NAV system, unassign the endpoint from the "Offline endpoints" list. If endpoint still cannot be assigned,
on the endpoint.
Increase the output level of audio source.

Two or more NAV devices on the network have been given the same input or output number.
Communication Failure An online assigned endpoint cannot establish a connection with the
NAVigator.
Controller Disconnect The NAV device is unable to connect to a paired control processor.
CPU Usage
Device Offline
The NAV device CPU is overloaded.
An assigned NAVigator is not discovered on the network.
Check whether login attempts were from internal personnel. If not, take action to strengthen security measures.
Debug network connectivity between the
NAVigator and endpoints.
For devices affected, change the input number or output number so that each is unique in the system.
Check the network settings to ensure unicast routing is possible between the
NAVigator and endpoints.
Verify the control processor is online.

The NAV device is receiving excessive network traffic.
The NAVigator cannot obtain time from the specified NTP server.
The clock to which all devices are synchronized is changing too frequently, for example, due to network jitter.
NAV device cannot synchronize its
PTPv2 clock with any peers.
Remedy
Reboot the NAV device. If the issue persists, perform a software reset that delete files (see
Reboot the NAV device. If the failure persists, perform a mode 1 reset (see
on page 14) .
Upgrade the firmware on the deviating device.
Change the device names affected so that each is unique.
Change the IP addresses affected so that each is unique.
Check the network for flooding, also check for improper network configuration.
Debug the network connectivity between the NAVigator and the specified NTP server.
Check network for flooding and correct
PTPv2 packet priority.
Ensure that network policies allow
PTPv2 packets to reach the NAV Device from a clock master.

Alarm
Stream Conflict
Stream error
Temperature Interna l
Tie Failure
Video loss
Cause
Multiple NAV endpoints are configured to use the same video, audio, AES67, or
USB multicast IP address.
NAV E 501 only — The encoder has lost reception of the USB stream for
2 seconds or more.
The NAV device is overheating.
The encoder failed to establish a tie with the specified endpoint.
The input is changed and video sync cannot be established within a two-second window.
Remedy
Reconfigure endpoint stream settings for a unique stream address.
Check all network switches and routers that support your NAV system for proper multicast (IGMP) configuration.
Check the ambient temperature of the
NAV device installation location.
• If greater than 104 °F, (60 ºC) use
HVAC system to lower ambient temperature.
• If ambient temperature is
104 °F, (60 °C) or less, check the mounting location for nearby equipment emitting excessive heat.
Ensure there is an air gap around endpoint to allow adequate airflow.
Debug the network connectivity between the encoder and decoder.
Debug the connectivity of the A/V source device to the NAV encoder.

UL Rack-Mounting Guidelines
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements pertain to the installation of the unit into a rack.
CAUTION:
• Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (TMA = +104 °F,
+40 °C) specified by Extron.
• Reduced air flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
• Reliable earthing (grounding) — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as use of power strips).
Consignes UL pour le montage en rack
Les consignes UL (« Underwriters Laboratories ») suivantes concernent l’installation en rack d’un boîtier l’encodeur :
ATTENTION :
• Température ambiante élevée — En cas d’installation de l’équipement dans un rack fermé ou composé de plusieurs unités, la température du rack peut être supérieure à la température ambiante. Par conséquent, il est préférable d’installer l’équipement dans un environnement qui respecte la température ambiante maximale (Tma) spécifiée par Extron.
• Réduction du flux d’air — Si l’équipement est installé dans un rack, veillez à ce que le flux d’air nécessaire pour un fonctionnement sécurisé de l’équipement soit respecté.
• Charge mécanique — Installez l’équipement en rack de manière à éviter toute situation dangereuse causée par le déséquilibre de la charge mécanique.
• Surcharge électrique — Lorsque vous connectez l’équipement au circuit d’alimentation, observez la connexion de l’équipement et étudiez les effets possibles d’une surcharge du circuit sur les protections contre les surintensités et les conducteurs d’alimentation. Consultez à cet égard les indications de la plaque d’identification de l’équipement.
• Mise à la terre — Assurez-vous que l’équipement est correctement mis à la terre.
Accordez une attention particulière aux connexions électriques autres
