OR OPERATING THE 4X1 DVI/ADC SWITCHER
• If two monitors are connected to the switcher, both monitors (one DVI and one ADC)
must have the same native resolution.
• The 4x1 DVI/ADC Switcher is housed in a metal box for better RF shielding.

the ADC monitor are active and can be used to connect additional USB peripherals.
OPERATION NOTES

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing Gefen’ s ex•tend•it 4x1 DVI/ADC Switcher series. The 4x1 DVI/
ADC Switcher switches DVI/ADC, USB and audio between any combination of four com-
puters. Now you can switch easily and reliably between any combination of four computers
using one DVI or ADC display, USB keyboard and mouse. The 4x1 DVI/ADC Switcher is
switched using the RMT-4IR. The 4x1 DVI/ADC Switcher saves space – there’s no need
to work on a desk crowded with four monitors, keyboards and mouse devices. It saves
time – there’s no need to move from one monitor to another to access different computers.
And it saves money – there’s no need to purchase additional monitors, mouse devices,
keyboards etc. The 4x1 DVI/ADC Switcher allows you to choose between any combination
of Macintosh or PC computers.

1. Remove battery cover from the back of the RMT4-IR remote.
2. Verify that dip switches 1 & 2 are in the down (OFF) position.
3. Insert the battery, hold the battery so that you can see the positive side facing up. The
side that is not marked must be facing down.
4. Test the RMT4-IR remote by pressing ONLY one button at a time. The indicator light
on the remote will flash once each time you press a button. WARNING: Do not press
multiple buttons simultaneously and do NOT press buttons rapidly. These actions will
cause the remote to reset and steps 1-4 will have to be repeated.
Note: The RMT4-IR ships with two batteries. One battery is required for operation, the
second battery is complimentary.
