TECH NOTES
AC power must not be interrupted during IN1606 / IN1608 firmware update – To
ensure firmware updates are reliably installed, AC power must remain continuously applied for
the entire 4-9 minute duration of the IN1606 / IN1608 firmware update. Once the update is
complete, the unit will automatically reboot and restore normal operation.
Improved Feature – Added automatic update of IN 7/IN 8/OUT C DTP firmware on
first boot after loading new firmware – After loading firmware the IN1608 will
automatically reboot and check the version of DTP firmware on DTP Inputs 7/8 and on the DTP
Output C. If necessary, the DTP firmware will automatically be updated to match the latest
Engineering Revision.
NOTE: On the automatic reboot after loading firmware, the front panel IN3/IN7/IN8 LED’s will
individually sequence through an Amber – Red – Green color sequence, which indicates
successful programming of the updated DTP firmware. This process takes ~60 seconds on the
automatic reboot after loading new firmware, and it is critical that AC power is not interrupted
during this process. Each successive power cycle will illuminate the IN3/IN7/IN8 front panel
LED’s in an Amber – Green sequence for a short duration to indicate a successful DTP
firmware version check.

KNOWN ISSUES
The following is a list of known firmware issues found in the IN1606/IN1608 Version
2.21.0001
Issue (originated in v2.01.0016) – Reverting from firmware version 2.xx to
version 1.xx may cause the IN1606 to become unresponsive - If firmware is
reverted back from 2.xx to a previous 1.xx, the unit may become unresponsive from
the front panel. To resolve this state, perform a “Mode 5 Reset” by holding the rear
panel RESET button until the adjacent LED blinks three times, release and quickly
press again. This will clear any previous settings on the unit; wait 10 seconds after
the Mode 5 Reset, and then power cycle the unit.
Issue (originated in v2.09.0002) – In some cases, “Auto” audio input
detection passes analog with Multi-Ch digital present – If the unit is set to
‘LPCM-2Ch Auto’ mode, but receives Multi-Ch digital audio from a source, the unit
will pass the analog audio input instead of the Multi-Ch digital signal, which should
have priority.
Issue (originated in v2.09.0002) – OSD (on-screen display) menu will not
update DHCP and IP address after performing Mode-4 reset – If a ‘Mode 4’
reset is performed on the unit, the OSD will incorrectly show the old DHCP mode
status and IP address as they were prior to the reset, despite these values having
been returned to default in firmware.
Issue (originated in v2.09.0002) – Internal webpage allows some
‘administrator’ configuration parameters to be adjusted by basic ‘user’ level
login – When a user is logged into a unit that has an ‘administrator’ password set,
the following settings are incorrectly accessible by the ‘user’: Aspect Ratio setting
for each input; Size and Position adjustments for the output.
Issue (originated in v1.00.0013) – Composite video fails to pass after
specific reset sequence – If an IN1606 or IN1608 unit is reset with a composite
video input applied, and then the analog video input format is adjusted to Composite
video may not pass until a successive power cycle. This issue is only present directly
after a unit reset.
Issue (originated in v2.20.0003) – IN1606 output status LEDs continue to
illuminate green, even if output sync has been muted – With the IN1606’s
output sync mute enabled (2B via SIS), output status LEDs for any connected display
will remain green instead of flashing amber. This issue does not affect the IN1608.
Issue (originated in v1.00.0013) – OSD lists previous output format on
“Device Info” tab – With an output configured for ‘HDMI Format: Auto’ the On
Screen Display’s “Device Info” tab may list the previous output format instead of the
current output format. As a workaround, an additional Hot Plug of the HDMI output
will refresh the OSD, which will in turn display the correct output format.

FIRMWARE RELEASE HISTORY
Released Version: 2.20.0003
Affects:
Firmware Revision: 2.18.0001 and prior
Date: Units shipped prior to April 13, 2015
The following is a list of changes and fixes in this release.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09.0002) – Individual video output mutes on
IN1606 may affect all outputs – If output sync was muted on a single discrete
output of the IN1606, all outputs would incorrectly become muted. This issue only
affected the IN1606 (not IN1608) and is resolved in firmware v2.20.0003.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09.0002) – Picture Control adjustments may
affect adjacent inputs – Picture control adjustments such as Contrast and
Brightness could incorrectly apply to newly selected inputs. This issue is resolved in
firmware v2.20.0003.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.18.0001) – Incomplete IN7/IN8/DTP C
firmware update – The automatic DTP firmware update implemented in v2.18.0001
did not match the most recent DTP firmware found in other Extron products. This
issue is resolved in firmware v2.20.0003, and IN7/IN8/DTP C will be updated on first
boot to the latest DTP Engineering Revision (E27846).
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00.0013) – Audio DSP settings may not always
restore successfully from configuration – When restoring an IN1606 or IN1608
configuration via PCS some audio DSP settings may not be successfully applied. This
issue is resolved in firmware v2.20.0003.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.18.0001) – “Match Output” EDID icon missing
from internal web page – The internal web page’s EDID tab was missing the
EDID/display icon behind the “Match Output” option. This issue is resolved in
firmware v2.20.0003.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.15.0003) – OSD “Device Info” tab may
incorrectly list ‘Limited’ output quantization range – With HDMI Output Format
set to Auto firmware v2.15.0003 or greater will always output a Full HDMI
quantization range. The On Screen Display “Device Info” tab could still incorrectly
list “Limited” even though the actual HDMI output format was “Full” range. This
issue is resolved in firmware v2.20.0003.
(Note: although output quantization range is now correctly displayed, the output
format listed in the OSD may be inaccurate until after an additional Hot Plug – Please
see the ‘Known Issues’ section at the top of this document)

49-172-50 Rev. 2.21.0001
Release Version 2.20.0003 (continued)
Improved Feature – Added support for sink devices lacking valid EDID – If
display Hot Plug Detect is present, but valid EDID cannot be read, the IN1606 /
IN1608 will now output DVI video format. Previously the output would be
continuously muted in this scenario. Note that it is not possible to pass HDCP
content in this state, so only unencrypted sources will pass, and HDCP sources will
yield a green HDCP notification screen to such a display device.

FIRMWARE RELEASE HISTORY
Released Version: 2.18.0001
Affects:
Firmware Revision: 2.16.0001 and prior
Date: Units shipped prior to December 8, 2014
The following is a list of changes and fixes in this release.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – IN1608 DTP inputs or DTP output may
stop passing video over an extended operational period – In rare cases if an
IN1608 unit was left continuously powered for several weeks, DTP In 7, DTP In 8, or
DTP Out C may stop passing video until a successive power cycle. This issue is
resolved in firmware v2.18.0001.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – “No Signal” OSD bug may become stuck
over live video inputs – In rare instances the “No Signal” On Screen Display (OSD)
message could become stuck over live video. To resolve, the scaler needed to be
switched to another input and back, or at times a power cycle was required. This
issue is resolved in firmware v2.18.0001.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Incorrect output sync polarity – Some
output rates included incorrect horizontal and vertical sync polarity values. All
output rates have been updated to match VESA/SMPTE/CEA standards, as of
firmware v2.18.0001.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.13) – Out of range Input Configuration or
Picture Control values prevent video from being displayed – In rare instances
Input Configuration or Picture Control settings could take on out of range values,
which would prevent video inputs from being displayed. Firmware v2.18.0001
includes new logic to prevent this issue in the future, and also to automatically repair
any corrupt Auto Memories that may exist on a unit.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – “Mic/Line” audio selection for MA output
always displays as selected on internal webpage – When initially loading the
internal webpage on the IN1608 MA and IN1608 IPCP MA models the “Mix Options:
Mic/Line” checkbox always displayed as selected for the mono amplified output,
regardless of the actual setting. This issue is resolved in firmware v2.18.0001.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Issues with input switching, or new
input resolutions when in PSAV mode – If a unit had been placed into the low
power “Power Save” mode, and an input switch command, or a new input resolution
was applied, an incorrect or shifted video input could be displayed after exiting PSAV
mode. Firmware v2.18.0001 includes improved logic to better handle new input
resolutions applied to the selected input while in PSAV mode. Firmware v2.18.0001
also includes logic to automatically exit PSAV mode on any input switch command.

become delayed relative to the video output. This issue is resolved in firmware
v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Analog gain is not adjustable via internal
webpage – If an inputs audio format was set to “None”, analog input gain
adjustments would no longer be available on the remaining inputs when using the
internal webpage of the product. This issue is resolved in firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09) – Color space setting changes are applied
to the incorrect input – A change to input signal color space (RGB vs. YUV) on
Inputs 7 and 8 could be incorrectly applied to Inputs 1 through 6. This issue is
resolved in firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Loss of program audio output – In rare
instances, program audio output would be lost after extended durations of input
switching or after multiple power cycles of the unit. This issue is resolved in
firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – DNS address could not be changed using
the internal webpage – DNS address changes would not save when modified via
the default web page. This issue is resolved in firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09) – Auto-memory settings not saved for
YUVi input sources – When incoming video was analog NTSC/PAL component
video, auto-memory features would not save properly. This issue is resolved in
firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – OSD menu is inaccurate after factory
reset – When using the OSD (on-screen display) menu to perform a factory reset,
various Input and Output parameters did not correctly update after the reset
completed. This issue is resolved in firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09) – Audio occasionally out of phase after
power cycle – In rare cases after a power cycle, the left and right audio channels
may become slightly out of phase until a subsequent power cycle is performed. This

49-172-50 Rev. 2.21.0001
Release Version 2.15 (continued)
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09) – OSD (on screen display) menu
occasionally would not function after power cycle – In rare instances after a
power cycle, the OSD menu would not appear. This issue is resolved in firmware
v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Custom EDID assignments not possible
via webpage – When using the internal webpage to configure EDID assignments,
the user was unable to assign connected display or custom EDID files to inputs 7 and
8 (IN1608 models). This issue is resolved in firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09) – Custom interlaced output rates
incorrectly output as progressive – Custom output rates that were defined as
interlaced were erroneously formatted and output as progressive. This issue is
resolved in firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09) – Custom interlaced EDID files incorrectly
listed as progressive – Custom EDID files defined as interlaced were erroneously
listed as “progressive” within the OSD or webpage. This issue only affected text
displayed within the internal web page, and did not impact the emulated EDID. This
issue is resolved in firmware v2.15.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.09) – “HDMI” audio duck checkboxes always
shown as disabled – After initially loading or refreshing the IN1608 internal web
page, the “HDMI A and B / DTP C” audio duck targets would always display as
disabled, regardless of their current state. This issue is resolved in firmware v2.15.
Improved Feature (originated in v1.00) – Continuous EDID polling until
successful – After a hot-plug is detected, the unit will continuously poll for EDID
data until successful. This will eliminate possible EDID communication errors with
some displays which have abnormally long wait times between a hot-plug event and
the transfer of EDID data.
Improved Feature (originated in v1.00) – Default audio settings not ideal
for many applications – Starting with firmware v2.15, several audio settings have
new default values to better accommodate common installation environments. The
new defaults are as follows; note that all audio settings can be adjusted using the
internal web pages or PCS software.
* Analog Input Gain/Attention (IN1 – IN8)
+12dB (previously 0dB)
* Program Audio Offset (SA Output)
+12dB (previously 0dB)
* Program Audio Offset (MA Output)
+6dB (previously 0dB)
Improved Feature – Improved compatibility with upstream DTP UWP and
DTP USW devices – On rare occasion, switching inputs, or applying a new video
input to an upstream USW / UWP could lead to incorrect sizing and centering on the
IN1608. Specific logic has been implemented in v2.15 to prevent this issue.
Page 10
49-172-50 Rev. 2.21.0001
Release Version 2.15 (continued)
Improved Feature – Auto Output Format removes limited quantization
option – When set for “Auto” Output Video Format, the unit would previously use
limited quantization range for SMPTE resolutions. For better compatibility with a
majority of sink devices, the “Auto” mode now outputs DVI to DVI sink devices, and
HDMI RGB 444 Full Quantization to HDMI sink devices, regardless of the set output
resolution.
Added Feature – Additional HDCP modes added – Firmware v2.15 now supports
additional HDCP modes for greater compatibility with various sink/display devices.
This setting can be found on the Device Settings tab of the internal web pages, or
PCS, and is also available via SIS.
Added Feature –Video and audio format added to EDID icons on product’s
internal webpage – The internal webpage has been enhanced to show video and
audio format of a given custom or output EDID within the EDID icon graphic.
Added Feature – Digital gain/attenuation control – Firmware v2.15 now
supports input gain/attenuation (+24 to -18dB) for LPCM-2Ch audio input streams,
allowing for greater ability to normalize inputs with varying audio levels.
Added Feature – Program Audio offset of up to +12dB can now be added to
any audio output group – Some customers note that the Program Audio outputs of
the IN1606 / IN1608 may be too low, especially on the amplified SA/MA outputs. A
new Program Offsets control has been added to the Audio “Mix Controls” tab of the
internal web page and PCS to allow up to +12dB of Program Audio gain to be added
to individual audio output groups.

FIRMWARE RELEASE HISTORY
Released Version: 2.09
Affects:
Firmware Revision: 2.02
Date: Units shipped prior to December 3, 2013
The following is a list of changes and fixes in this release.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Loss of audio during breakaway input
switching – When using the audio breakaway feature, audio output would
occasionally become muted when switching input sources, and would require a
power cycle or input switch to restore audio. This issue has been resolved in
firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – Leaving USB port connected for long
periods of time caused communication to become inactive – USB
communication would become unresponsive if left physically connected to a PC but
with no active communication or software running for long periods of time. This issue
has been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – Unwanted noise and/or total loss of
audio after a duration of use – After adjusting audio parameters, usually after
prolonged use, the audio may become highly attenuated or corrupted. This issue
has been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – ‘Green Screen’ (non-HDCP compliance)
would occur on some HDCP compliant DVI displays – Some display
manufacturers may not correctly indicate HDCP compliance during hot-plug events
on DVI inputs, resulting in the IN1606/IN1608 unit showing a ‘Green Screen’ at the
video output. This issue has been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Ducking state lost during power cycle –
When ducking is in the disabled state, it would incorrectly become enabled during a
power cycle of the unit. This issue has been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – IN1608 MA – Does not pass mono audio
properly – The audio output was incorrectly set to ‘stereo mode’ and therefore
would only output one channel of audio rather than summed mono. This problem
would also result in reduced audio output level. This issue has been resolved in
firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Audio did not properly de-embed when
using certain HDMI sources – Embedded audio from certain HDMI sources was
not properly de-embedded, which led to no signal at the analog outputs of the
IN1606/IN1608. This issue has been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Page 13
49-172-50 Rev. 2.21.0001
Release Version 2.09 (continued)
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – No video output when display provides
corrupted EDID data or no EDID data – If the connected display did not provide
EDID, or the EDID is determined to be corrupted, the unit would not output any
video. Video output format will now default to DVI format if this circumstance occurs.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – Audio not passing correctly on DTP
inputs – If the input source was HDCP authenticated but not encrypted, embedded
audio may not be handled properly and could incorrectly mute. This issue has been
resolved in Firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Garbage TMDS data causes undesirable
behavior – Some upstream sources can enter a state where their HDMI/DVI output
will not contain valid TMDS video, and instead will consist of garbage TMDS
transitions. Such sources could cause the IN160x to indicate incorrect signal/HDCP
status, and in rare circumstances lead to loss of control of the scaler. This issue has
been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Audio test pattern not audible when
format set to Multi-Ch – While using the internal audio test pattern, audio was not
present at the output when using Multi-Ch audio. This issue has been resolved in
firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – PAL at 60Hz is not properly detected –
When using PAL at 60Hz (PAL-60 or “pseudo PAL”) as an input rate, the output video
will not display properly. This issue has been resolved in Firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Webpage reports ‘No Signal’ – Analog
video inputs would read ‘No Signal’ on the internal webpage of the IN1606/IN1608,
even when a valid video input was present. This issue has been resolved in firmware
v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – Webpage shows incorrect HDMI Audio
Ducking status – When viewing any audio Ducking targets on the internal webpage
of the IN1606/IN1608, parameters would appear unselected regardless of the true
state of the setting. This issue has been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – Web firmware update would display
erroneous time out message – When updating firmware through the default web
pages, an erroneous time out pop-up message would occur even though the
firmware update was successful. This issue has been resolved in firmware v2.09.
Page 14
49-172-50 Rev. 2.21.0001
Release Version 2.09 (continued)
Improved Feature (originated in v1.00) – Default audio settings not ideal
for most applications – Starting with firmware v2.09, several audio settings have
new default values to better accommodate common installation environments. The
new defaults are as follows; note that all audio settings can be adjusted using the
internal web pages or PCS software.
* Mic 1 and Mic 2 Mutes enabled – Previously unmuted, which could add noise in
systems that are not using Mic inputs.
* Mic 1 and Mic 2 Ducking disabled – Previously enabled, which could lead to
Program Audio attenuation, due to noise on Mic inputs.
* Output Limiters enabled – Previously disabled, which could lead to clipping on
high-level audio inputs.
* Volume Knob controls Program Audio – Previously controlled Output Volume, which
also includes Mic Levels, which is generally not desirable.
Added Feature – Added discreet video output mutes – Firmware 2.09 now
features individual output mutes for each video output (HDMI-A, HDMI-B, DTP-C).

FIRMWARE RELEASE HISTORY
Released Version: 2.02
Affects:
Firmware Revision: 1.00
Date: Units shipped prior to July 10, 2013
The following is a list of changes and fixes in this release.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Scaler lockup after extended duration of
input switching – Due to a specific firmware bug, after a period of input switching
on the scaler, the scaler could become unresponsive until after a power cycle. This
issue has been resolved in firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Loss of analog Program Audio after
power cycle – After a power cycle, analog Program Audio would not be present until
after switching to a different input and back. This has been resolved in firmware
v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Program audio unmutes after input
switch – If the Program Audio Group Master had been muted, Program Audio would
incorrectly begin to pass after an input switch, even though the Mute state still
indicated enabled. This issue has been resolved on firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – No Mic Audio without active DVI/HDMI
input – Previously Mic audio would incorrectly mute if the selected HDMI input did
not have an active DVI/HDMI input signal. This has been corrected in firmware
v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Mic audio drops during input switch – Mic
audio would incorrectly attenuate during an input switch. This issue has been
resolved in firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – “Auto” audio input mode mutes on loss
of HDMI input – In one of the two “Auto” audio input format modes, audio would
incorrectly mute if HDMI / DVI signal on the selected input has been lost or
removed. Firmware v2.02 includes a specific fix to correctly pass analog audio in the
event that the selected HDMI / DVI input is removed.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Non LPCM-2Ch audio passes to analog
audio outputs – An input detection issue allowed LPCM audio of 3 or more
channels, or bit stream formats to pass to the analog audio outputs, which could
result in audio “garbage” being present on these outputs. Updated logic in firmware
v2.02 correctly routes such audio inputs to only the embedded audio outputs.
Page 16
49-172-50 Rev. 2.21.0001
Release Version 2.02 (continued)
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Video tearing visible on output refresh
rates < 30Hz – Output resolutions with refresh rates below 30Hz may have
exhibited tearing on the video output. This issue has been resolved in firmware
v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – Video inputs shifted left by one pixel –
Starting with firmware v2.01, all video inputs could be shifted one pixel to the left.
This issue has been resolved on firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – HDCP Green Screen after display power
cycle – After power cycling some display devices, the IN1606 would output a green
image due to the incorrect assessment that the display was not HDCP compliant.
Firmware v2.02 includes improved logic to better handle such display devices.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – No image to CODEC devices – The IN1606
would only output black video to some sink devices. Improved logic in firmware
v2.02 will better identify, and correctly handle such sink devices.
Fixed Issue (originated in v2.01) – Presence of HDMI audio causes
inadvertent HDMI video muting – For some HDMI computer sources, if a system
sound was played on the embedded HDMI output, the video would inadvertently
mute. This issue has been resolved in firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) Freeze mode incorrectly holds video after
input switch – If a video input had been frozen, and then a new input had been
selected on the scaler, the Freeze state would report disabled, but a frame of the
previous video input would be incorrectly held at the output. This has been
corrected on firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Analog audio input Gain/Attenuation
always reset to 0dB – If any of the scaler’s inputs had been set to Audio Format:
None, navigating to the Audio - Line Input tab on the internal web page would reset
the Gain/Attenuation setting of all inputs to 0dB. This issue has been resolved in
firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – Audio noise on embedded audio outputs
with internal test patterns – With the scaler set to a 1080p, 1920x1200, or
1600x1200 output resolution, audio noise may have been audible on the embedded
HDMI / DTP outputs if one of the scaler’s internal test patterns had been activated.
This issue has been resolved in firmware v2.02.
Fixed Issue (originated in v1.00) – HDMI +5VDC output remains active,
even with outputs disabled – If the HDMI video outputs had been disabled via the
“Mute Video and Sync,” Screen Saver Mode, or Power Save Mode, +5VDC would
incorrectly remain active on each HDMI output. This issue has been resolved on
firmware v2.02.
