3.2 Rear Panel
1. EDID Control Switch: Default setting is TV (downstream). In this mode the
QU-18S will search all output ports (starting at output 1) for the highest
video/audio settings connected to each of the outputs. The detection priority
of the matrix is v1.3 HDMI, v1.2 HDMI, DVI. Switch to STD (xed EDID) if
you have any issues with the default setting (TV). When switching to STD,
please ensure that the unit is powered OFF, then ON again, for the setting to
be made. By changing to STD, this will force the source to be congured as
standard stereo (PCM) Audio and initiate a search for a common compatible
video resolution.
2. HDMI Input: Connect input port to the HDMI or DVI output of your source
equipment such as a Blu-Ray player or set-top box.
3. HDMI Outputs 1 to 8: Connect each of the output ports to the HDMI display.
When more than one output is connected, the HDMI outputs play an identical
video signal simultaniously.
4. POWER: Plug the 5V DC power supply into the splitter and connect the
adaptor to the AC wall socket.
