Note: Please retain the original packing material should the need ever arise to
return the unit. If you find any items are missing, contact your reseller or TV One

4.0 CONNECTING THE HARDWARE
Please study the panel drawings below and become familiar with the signal input,
outputs, power requirements plus any controls present. Note that the three Video
Models are the same product except for the Input/Output connector type.
Connect the AC power Adapter to the AC socket and then connect the small
tubular plug to the unit, twisting it gently to lock it in place. Connect the
appropriate input cables and the output cable and turn the power switch on. The
power LED should light indicating the presence of DC voltage at the unit.

5.0 OPERATING THE UNIT
After you have applied power and connected the appropriate cables, select the
desired input by pressing the appropriate button. A Green LED will light within
the button indicating that the unit has accepted your selection.
For the Video Routing Switchers, you can select any of eight inputs and with the
Audio Routing Switcher, a total of four inputs are available for selection.
6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING
If your product does not illuminate the “Power” LED, check that you have AC
available at the AC socket. Occasionally AC sockets are un-powered until a wall
switch is closed. Next make certain that the power plug is securely connected to
the unit. (It should be pushed in and gently turned to lock it in position).
If the unit powers up but does not switch sources, check the input and output
cables and their connectors for integrity and damage. Try a different cable on the
output (if no output is present) and try a different cable on any input that appears
to be defective.
Realize that you must use a high quality cable if you want to experience the full
bandwidth capability of this product.
After trying the above suggestions should the problem still persist, contact your
dealer for additional suggestions before contacting TV One. Should the dealer’s
technical personnel be unable to assist you, contact TV One via our support
website: http://tvone.crmdesk.com. Create a technical support request on the
site and our support team will respond within a short period of time.
