7. Operation Controls and Functions
The following sections describe the hardware components of the unit, along

② HDCP indicators: When the input source has HDCP protection the
HDCP LED will turn on.
③ SYNC Indicator: The LED will turn on when the input source's signal is
detected by the device.
④ Power LED: The LED will turn on when power is on.
7.2 Rear Panel
① IR IN: This slot is to be connected with the IR receiver cable included in the
package and use the source’s remote to control source equipment.
② OUT: This slot connects with the IR blaster cable included in the
package and should be placed it in front of the source for sending and
infrared signal.
③ EDID Control Switcher: Switch the EDID between STD & TV. Switch to STD
to use the built-in EDID or switch to TV to use TV’s EDID. Default factory
setting is on TV, leave as is when the display is working properly.
Note:
1. When EDID is switched to TV, the unit will detect the first HDMI output
EDID and record in the unit. If the first detected output source is DVI it
will pass on to the next one until the first HDMI source been detected.

Audio →PCM 2CH
3. The EDID selection will only activate when the unit is plugged in and
powered on.
④ System Reset: When switched “ON”, the system will send the internal CEC
to the display within 8~10 minutes to force all the displays to switch to
HDMI 1 input port. Meanwhile, the source’s CEC will not be functioning.
When switched “OFF”, the system reset function will be stopped. Factory
default is “OFF”.
⑤ Video/DDC input: These slots are for connecting the Video/DDC input to
the Video/DDC output of the transmitter unit with CAT6 cables.
⑥ Video/DDC output: These slots are for connecting the Video/DDC output
to the Video/DDC input of the receiver unit with CAT6 cables.
Note:
A. This system was tested with CAT6/23AWG/ cables, so if using cables
of another type, the user must be warned that this may result in a lower
maximum distance.
B. Cable distance tested with a PS3 40G, and 37" Samsung 12 bit LCD TV.
C. Figures provided in this manual are reference figures only, actual
figures may depend on source and display use with cable specification.
⑦ HDMI Outputs 2~8: These slots allow you connect to HDMI displays with
