■ Panel Descriptions
Front Panel
Activity Display (Front):
a) When Power is applied all lights flash RED and the machine
begins to function. If no devices are plugged in, you can
verify power by looking inside the vent on the right side of
the unit.
b) When the INPUT device is plugged in, the light blink RED
while
“handshaking” is occurring, and goes SOLID once
communication is complete and signal is good.
c) When a sink (display) is plugged into an OUTPUT, the
corresponding light blinks RED until the “handshake” is
complete. Once the connection is made the OUTPUT lights
will go SOLID (If a sink or display is plugged in).

EDID Setting (Notes):
Note1: EDID Copy mode: EDID will be copied from sink on OUTPUT
1. The AC-DA12-AUHD is set this way by default for maximum
“Plug & Play” Compatibility. If you change sink (Display) plugged
into OUTPUT 1, please follow the steps below if you wish to use the
new sink’s EDID.
1. Start with power off
2. Set DIP to ‘00000’ (all up).
3. Power on the unit
4. Power on the source device and connect the HDMI input
port.
Note2: Cascading mode (Ideal for larger installations) Cascade
mode does not react to the EDID from the sink device. It
sends the signal that you put in, out. This is ideal for linking
multiple units together. The method below is an ideal way to
use this function effectively.
AC-DA12-AUHD
To use cascading mode:
1. Start with power off
2. Fix an EDID on the FIRST unit in the series from the
list above (4K60, 4K30, 1080P, etc…)
3. Set the DIP on all subsequent units to “11111” (all
down).
4. Connect the source device
5. Power up the system
