SPLITMUX-DVI-4 3.02 Release Notes
Correction for display of serial number in the OSD.
SPLITMUX-DVI-4 3.00 Release Notes
Transparent USB 2.0 Matrix
The transparent USB 2.0 Matrix allows switching of up to four USB devices to the connected hosts.
New improved Video ICs
The new video processor of SPLITMUX-DVI-4 provides best image quality in Quad, PiP, Dual and Fullscreen mode. New
interpolation filters guarantee brilliant image quality when scaling.
New equalizers allow connecting sources and console at up to 20 meters distance.
Improved Input Video Mode Support
New DVI receivers support any resolution up to 1920x1200@60 Hz at digital inputs following the VESA or CEA standards.
Support for 1920x1200 and 1920x1080 at 50 Hz and 60 Hz as analog input modes.
1920x1200 and 1920x1080 at 50 Hz and 60 Hz are now supported as analog input modes.
Improved EDID Management
Input EDIDs can now be programmed comfortably. The content of monitor EDIDS can be copied into the input EDIDs.

iii
SPLITMUX-DVI-4 - 2.1 Release Notes
SPLITMUX firmware version 2.1 contains new and improved features, including smooth transitions, manual input video mode
selection, and automatic hiding of notifications like “no signal” to prevent burn-in.
New Features in 2.1
Fade through black
An elegant visual effect for presentations: When switching channels or display modes, the previous image fades to black, and the
next image is faded in smoothly. Fade through black can be enabled or disabled by the user, and has five speed settings.
Screen protection
Some servers switch off their video output after a period of inactivity. To prevent burn-in, notifications such as “no signal” are
hidden after 10 seconds.
Manual settings for input video mode
To enable users to ensure they always have the current input video mode, SPLITMUX now supports manual settings for modes
that are difficult to distinguish automatically.
Improved video mode detection
Automatic input and output mode detection have been improved.
SPLITMUX-DVI-4- 1.40a Release Notes
SPLITMUX Firmware version 1.40a features improved keyboard compatibility and includes minor features and bug fixes.
New Features in 1.40a
Improved keyboard compatibility
Version 1.40a adds compatibility with programmable keyboards that can send custom key combinations. Now you can efficiently
operate a single unit as well as multiple cascaded units with the press of a button.
Raw EDID data
Using the CONSOLE->EDID menu, it is now possible to view the raw EDID data of the connected monitor to facilitate
troubleshooting.
New resolution
HDTV 720p (1280x720) is now accepted both as an analog signal as well as a digital signal. Previous firmware versions only
support digital HDTV resolutions.
More on Cascading
By cascading the SPLITMUX-DVI-4, you can connect up to 16 computers, and show them simultaneously on a single display.
Please see drawings at the end of this manual. They are for 8 computers on a single console (or computers with multiple outputs).
NOTE: Instead of using a standard keyboard you can use a key pad (like X-key) and program any command behind a
single key. This allows switching comfortably between display modes and active channels.
LIMITATION: Please remember the issue with the lack of resolution of displays and the real time video issue.
There will be no real time video in each of the small quadrants even if you would lower each computers resolution to 800x600 and
rise the refresh rate to 180Hz.. The reason is that the outputs of the “slave” Splitmux-DVI-4unit will only support up to 80Hz.
This means about 10-12 frames per second for each of the up to 16 quadrants.

iv
SPLITMUX-DVI-4- 1.40 Release Notes

SPLITMUX-DVI-4 - Installation and Operation Manual
INTRODUCTION
1
Thank you for choosing SPLITMUX-DVI-4 from NTI. This product represents the latest state-of-the-art tech-
nology in keyboard-video-mouse (KVM) switching. The SPLITMUX-DVI-4‘s key advantage over conventional
KVM switches is that it allows you to simultaneously display and administer 4 computers on a single console. It
combines key features of a high-end KVM switch and a digital multiviewer scaling and converting videos at both
inputs and output.
DISPLAY MODES
QUAD MODE u
In this mode, the screen is split into four elds of equal
size each displaying the entire screen contents of one
source.
tFULLSCREEN MODE
In Fullscreen mode, one of the four sources
is displayed in full screen size and maximum
resolution.
PiP MODE (Picture in Picture) u
Using this feature, the full screen display of one of the
four video sources is accompanied by one to three small
images (thumbnails) of the other video sources which
are displayed on the right hand side of the screen allowing
simultaneous monitoring.
All PiP display modes are described in chapter
OSD – MODE – PIP (pages 27ff).
tDUAL MODE
In Dual mode the left halves of the fullscreen images
from two video sources are displayed side by side at
full size and at full vertical resolution. For a version of
Dual mode with two images side by side at full size
(entire screen content, not only left halves) see page 22.

DVI & VGA
SPLITMUX-DVI-4 supports resolutions of up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz for both DVI and VGA.
Any combination of VGA and DVI at all standard resolutions is possible at inputs and output. Analog video input
is converted to digital. If an analog display is connected, SPLITMUX-DVI-4 converts the digital signal to analog
at the output. Internally, SPLITMUX-DVI-4 processes video purely digital guaranteeing best digital image
quality.
USB & PS/2 for keyboard / mouse / touch screen / trackball
Use either PS/2 or USB ports on the computer to connect keyboard and mouse to SPLITMUX-DVI-4. It supports
any combination.
To connect the console, SPLITMUX-DVI-4 features two USB ports for mouse, keyboard, touchscreen or
trackball connection.
Transparent USB 2.0
SPLITMUX-DVI-4 features a transparent high speed USB 2.0 matrix: USB 2.0 devices (e.g. printer, external
memory, memory stick,webcam, 3D mouse, nger printer) can be switched to computers connected.
Operation
There are six ways to operate SPLITMUX-DVI-4, switch channels, and select display modes:
1. Using the buttons on the front of the unit
2. Using congurable hotkeys
3. Using the unit’s external conguration program on a remote computer
4. Via a serial port using the protocol DCP XML
5. Using mouse functions (Hotmouse)
6. Using a touch screen
The conguration of SPLITMUX-DVI-4 is effected via an On Screen Display (OSD) opened and and navigated
either with keyboard commands or front panel buttons or remotely via ConfDev on an external PC.
The LEDs on the front panel indicate the unit’s current status.
Use the serial (RS232) port for remote control and rmware updates.

Setting output resolution to safe display modes
To set output resolution to 640 x 480 pixel @ 60 Hz simultaneously press buttons 1 and 2 for longer than 1
second. Use of this feature is recommended when you cannot use the OSD (on screen display dark or illegible)

(640x480@60), you can choose a resolution the connected monitor supports in the OSD.
Alternatively, hold buttons 1 and 2 again to cycle through the following video modes:
VGA 640x480@60, SVGA 800x600@60, XGA 1024x768@60, UXGA 1600x1200@60, and the preferred video
