 LAN(10M/100M), RS232 are for PC control
 Analog Audio IN/OUT ports are bond with corresponding HDMI ports .
For example, if INPUT HDMI 1 signal is DVI, matrix will use analog AUDIO IN 1 as HDMI 1
audio source
Note, Analog AUDIO IN is only available when the corresponding video input is DVI
signal.
Analog AUDIO OUT n will always output the same audio content with HDMI OUTPUT n
Analog Audio IN/OUT connection
 IR IN and IR OUT
IR IN/OUT is for remote control routing, and followed with video routing,
For example, if input HDMI m is routed to output HDMI n1 and n2 ports, then
IR IN n1 and n2 ports will be routed to IR OUT m port. Please refer to bellow
illustration.
