and keyboard at the same time, to achieve a single set of mouse and keyboard controls
4 mainframe imultaneously.
Connection Description:
1, through the cable four signal source is connected with the input port of the device;
2, by setting so that each window (as shown below Signal 1, Signal 2, Signal 3, Signal 4
four window) display is not the same as the signal source is different (setting mode
refer to the next chapter of the remote control ), do not change display window
position of the signal source;
3, via the USB cable so that the 4computer's USB port respectively, connect with USB1,
USB2, USB3, USB4 of the device; eg :A image of computer is displayed in the window
position of the 1signal,then the computer's USB cable must be connected to the USB1
port of the device, similar to other computer connection.
chapter Five Remote control operation
Properly connect the output signal and display terminal , then you need to properly
connect the input signal source and the device . via remote control, chassis button and
control software to set different display modes, such as quad display, select a signal
full-screen display, the PIP and other functions . This chapter describes how to operate
the equipment via infrared remote control, if you are use our devices for the first time,
configure or settings as follows

11
1, the window position of signal definition:
Before using LM-SH41-4K2K Quad video multiplexers, we must understand the
definition of signal 1, signal 2, signal 3 and signal 4:
Signal 1 is also called window1,in the top left corner of the screen;
Signal 2 is also known as window 2, in the lower left corner of the screen;
Signal 3 also known as window 3, in the upper right corner of the screen;
Signal 4 also known as window 4, in the lower right corner of the screen;
As the picture show:
2 Setting the resolution
If the output resolution of the device is higher than the physical resolution of the
display unit, the display may not display images ; if the output resolution of the device
is lower than the physical resolution of the display unit, the image display but not the
best, so we must select identical or similar resolution output .
SWITCH button on the remote control switching in turn the output resolution of the
device, so that the output resolution of device with physical resolution of the display
unit fit that achieve optimal effect, when switching the resolution we must note the
following:

12
☆, each time you press the SWITCH of remote control, need about 2 seconds before
you can switch to the next resolution;
☆, if the output resolution of device is higher than the physical resolution of the display
unit, the display unit will not display images, or display does not support ,and press the
MENU button of remote control does not pop up any menu;
☆, after switching resolution, if the display unit can support the resolution, will pop up
input resolution at side of the screen, you can selected the best resolution that support
the display unit by switching.
☆, press the MENU key, pop up menu, shows that the resolution setting can be
displayed properly.
3. Set the quad display mode:
First press buttons 0 of the remote control or cabinet , so display under Quad
mode,but press the 0 key may not post an image, you need to operate the following
steps.
