INSTRUCTION MANUAL

SAFETY INFORMATION
1. To ensure the best results from this product, please read this manual and all other documentation before
operating your equipment. Retain all documentation for future reference.
2. Follow all instructions printed on unit chassis for proper operation.
3. To reduce the risk of re, do not spill water or other liquids into or on the unit, or operate the unit while standing
in liquid.
4. Make sure power outlets conform to the power requirements listed on the back of the unit. Keep unit protected
from rain, water and excessive moisture.
5. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents or aerosol cleaners, as this may damage the unit. Dust
with a clean dry cloth.
6. Do not use the unit if the electrical power cord is frayed or broken. The power supply cords should be routed so
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular
attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
7. Do not force switched or external connections in any way. They should all connect easily, without needing to
be forced.
8. Always operate the unit with the AC ground wire connected to the electrical system ground. Precautions
should be taken so that the means of grounding of a piece of equipment is not defeated.
9. AC voltage must be correct and the same as that printed on the rear of the unit. Damage caused by connection
to improper AC voltage is not covered by any warranty.
10. Turn power off and disconnect unit from AC current before making connections.
11. Never hold a power switch in the “ON” position.
12. This unit should be installed in a cool dry place, away from sources of excessive heat, vibration, dust,
moisture and cold. Do not use the unit near stoves, heat registers, radiators, or other heat producing
devices.
13. Do not block fan intake or exhaust ports. Do not operate equipment on a surface or in an environment
which may impede the normal ow of air around the unit, such as a bed, rug, carpet, or completely enclosed
rack. If the unit is used in an extremely dusty or smoky environment, the unit should be periodically “blown
free” of foreign dust and matter.
14. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
15. When moving the unit, disconnect input ports rst, then remove the power cable; nally, disconnect the
interconnecting cables to other devices.
16. Do not drive the inputs with a signal level greater than that required to drive equipment to full output.
17. The equipment power cord should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
18. Save the carton and packing material even if the equipment has arrived in good condition. Should you ever
need to ship the unit, use only the original factory packing.
19. Service Information Equipment should be serviced by qualied service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged.
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the equipment.
C. The equipment has been exposed to rain.
D. The equipment does not appear to operate normally, or exhibits a marked change in performance.
E. The equipment has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

TOP PANEL
qOLED SCREEN: Displays the current signal analysis information or test pattern mode
selection details including input and/or output resolution timing. The screen layout changes
depending on the unit’s mode.
ANALYZER MODE (Analyzer/Pattern button is
RED): In Analyzer mode, if there is no live video
source detected on the input port, the OLED will
display any voltage, TMDS or sync that might be
present. Once a live video signal is detected, the unit
will display that signal’s current timing, format, HDCP
version, AV Mute status, color space, color depth and
audio format.
PATTERN MODE (ANALYZER/PATTERN BUTTON
IS BLUE): In Pattern mode, when the output isn’t
connected to a sink, the unit will display the current
output timing, RxSense and Hot-plug detection
status. Once an active sink has been connected, the
lower portion of the display will change to indicate the
current test pattern number and name.
