6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING
Problems with the MX-2522 Matrix Switcher are rare. Most of the time, the problem is
caused by the use of an incorrect cable for the signal type, too long a cable run, bad
connectors on the cable or damaged cables. Bad grounds or use of different AC power
sources for the MX-2522 Matrix Switcher, Signal Source and/or Display Device(s) may
also cause problems due to ground loops.
After trying the above suggestions should the problem still persist, contact your dealer
