Commands:
socat5 b [Host baud rate] [Client baud rate]
Ie. socat5 b 115200 9600
Transmier can send RS-232 command to mulple Receivers at same me . Only one Receiver can
feedback to Transmier at one me. The Receiver can occupying RS -232 return channel 5 seconds.
Aer last transmission, than other Receiver can take over RS -232 return channel.
2) Reset transmier baud rate when forget previous set ng

chain.
(2) Check power indicator and make sure all DC power adapters had well connected to Transmier and
Receivers, and well plugged into power socket.
(3) Make sure all HDMI cables are well connected between PC and Transmier, display and Receiver.
(4) Use EDID copy funcon to improve compability.
Problem: Keyboard/Mouse don’t work
Soluon:
(1) Make sure Cat.5e cables are well connected from Transmier to Receiver.
(2) Make sure USB cable is well connected to Transmier and Receiver.
(3) Make sure Keyboard/Mouse are well connected between PC and Transmier.
Problem: RS-232 don’t work
Soluon:
(1) Make sure the pin assignment of RS-232 cable is correct,
* If the pin assignment of RS-232 cable is correct, the TxD&RxD Status Indicator LED on the Receiver will

(2) Make sure Broadcast or Unicast mode is correctly. And, make sure right mode chosen and seng.
(3) Make sure the baud rate seng on Transmier and Receiver are correct, and matching to control PC
and display RS-232 port seng.
(4) If RS-232 command from Receiver to Transmier got issue, wait for 5 seconds, then issue command at
Receiver side again. Only one Receiver can transmit RS-232 at same me. The Receiver will keep occupying
RS-232 return channel 5 seconds. Aer last transmission, then other Receiver can take over RS-232 return
channel. Or, use unicast mode.
