Smart ScanTM:
Octava’s HD switch with Smart ScanTM saves you the hassle of fumbling
with multiple remote controls. Simply power on the HDMI source you want
to view and the HDMI switch will automatically switch to the correct port.
Energy Smart: If the HDTV is off or if all HDMI sources are off, the
switch will go into standby mode to conserve power.
"The AUDIO Inputs will switch in sync with the HDMI Input selected.
For example,
If HDMI INPUT 3 is selected, then both the TOSLINK and COAX Digital
Audio will also be switched to the AUDIO INPUT 3.
