FRONT PANEL CONTROL
Front panel buttons can be used for source selections, adjusting output resolution, front panel buttons
management, software updating and output screen settings. There are 6 sources for choose in total, including
HDMI1, HDMI2, HDMI3, HDMI/MHL4, VGA1, VGA2. Video signals support auto-switching and manual-
switching (factory default).
Manual-switching:
Dial back arrow to select the previous source, dial forward arrow to select the next source.
Auto-switching:
Press and hold for SOURCE/AUTO for 3 seconds or more to enter in auto-switching/ manual-switching mode.

The auto-switching mode abides by the following:
New input:
Once detecting a new input signal, the switcher would switch to this new signal automatically.
Rebooting device:
The EVSW1061 have the ability to save the last conguration before losing power. If the last switching mode
is auto-switching, once rebooted, the switcher will automatically enter auto-switching mode, then detect all
inputs and memorize their connection status for future rebooting using. If the last displayed signal is still
available, the unit will output the signal. If not, the unit will detect all the inputs signals with priority from
HDMI1 to VGA2. When detected the rst signal, it will transfer to output.
Signal removing:
Once removing the current display signal, Compact Scaler Switcher will detect all input signals with priority
from HDMI1 to VGA2. It will transfer the signal rstly detected to be available to output devices
RS232 CONTROL
