System Connection
System Diagram
The following diagram illustrates the typical input and output connections for the SY-HS12:
Connection Procedures
Connect a HDMI / DVI source device (e.g. BluRay DVD) to the HDMI INPUT socket of SY-HS12
with HDMI cable.
Connect HDMI displays to HDMI OUTPUT sockets of SY-HS12 with HDMI cable.
Plug a DC 5V power adapter to the power port of SY-HS12.
Note:
1. All the ports support hot-plug detection. Be aware that hot plugging a display may
result in a splash screen on the display.
2. Output HDCP compliance status depends on the input signal. When the input signal

contains HDCP, so does the output; when the input does not have HDCP, neither does
the output.
3. A HDMI signal contains both HDMI video signal and embedded audio signal (PCM,
Dolby Digital, DTS, and DTS-HD), while a DVI signal contains only the video signal.
4. Pictures shown in this manual are for reference only, different model and
specifications are subject to the real product.
5. SY-HS12 is capable to switch input signal format according to the displays.
For example, when the input signal is HDMI and the display can only support DVI
signal, SY-HS12 will switch the signal into DVI format.
EDID Management
SY-HS12 comprises 1 HDMI input port & 2 HDMI output ports, EDID management helps in
distributing and routing signals from the source at the resolution of the first detected display
(detecting from output 1~2).
For example: when output 1 connects with a 1080p display, SY-HS12 will select 1080p as output
resolution and distribute 1080p signal to displays connected to output 1~2.
Note: If the display connected to output 2 doesn’t support the 1080p signal, there will be no
output on that display.
