Note
1If the HDTV shows video but without audio, please try to set audio mode to stereo.
2Factory default: Pin#1-OFF[©], Pin#2- OFF[©]for 1080p with stereo.
3If you encounter any unsolved audio/video output problem during system installation, please turn to
Safe Mode (Pin#1-OFF[©]& Pin#2-ON[ª]) to enforce the most compatible 720p stereo output for
system check.
4Bypass means the matrix will maintain playing the original format of HDMI signals in video and
perhaps audio. By setting at this mode, the users may encounter compatibility issue among different
kinds of HDMI sources and displays. If you cannot get the audio and/or video output normally at the
system installation, please change the DIP switch setting to default mode or even safe mode to verify
the functionality of the device.
5Set Pin#1 at ON[ª]first then connect the HDMI Input to HDTV through a HDMI cable. Wait for 20
seconds. The EDID learning procedure will be finished. If you want to learn the EDID from another
HDTV, you must set Pin#1 at OFF first and repeat this procedure.

Rotary Control
In order to adapt the CAT5 cable, EX-G016 offers 8 level equalization control on the
received HDMI signal. The strongest equalization is applied while the knob stops at
number 0, while the weakest equalization happens at number 7. It is recommended to
switch from 7 to 0 to find the optimal visual experience.
HDMI Output Format Selection
When input signal exists, the output format LED turns on. If the input HDMI source is HDMI 1.3
format, you can set the output format to HDMI 1.2 mode and Red LED will be on. If the input HDMI
source is HDMI 1.2, the output format is always set to HDMI 1.2.

Notice
1. If the DVI or HDMI device requires the EDID information, please use EDID Reader/Writer to
retrieve and provide DVI/HDMI EDID information.
2. All HDMI over CAT5 transmission distances are measured using Belden 1583A CAT5e 125MHz
LAN cable and ASTRODESIGN Video Signal Generator VG-859C.
3. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of LAN cables, the type of HDMI sources,
and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid LAN cables (usually in bulk cable
300m/1000ft form) can transmit a lot longer signals than stranded LAN cables (usually in patch
cord form). Shielded STP cables are better suit than unshielded UTP cables. A solid UTP CAT5e
cable shows longer transmission length than stranded STP CAT6 cable. For long extension users,
solid LAN cables are your only choice.
4. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for LAN cables is recommended for better performance.
5. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in LAN cable, you can use
shielded LAN cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long transmission.
6. Because the quality of the LAN cables has the major effects in how long transmission distance will
be made and how good is the received display, the actual transmission length is subject to your
LAN cables. For resolution greater than 1080i or 1280x1024, a CAT6 cable is recommended.
7. If your HDMI display has multiple HDMI inputs, it is found that the first HDMI input [HDMI input #1]
generally can produce better transmission performance among all HDMI inputs.
