INSTALLATION NOTES
SYSTEM RULES
These two rules will help you understand what is possible with this product:
Rule 1: This product uses 10 channels. Each transmitter needs to use a different channel,
therefore you can have up to 10 transmitters in the same WiFi environment.
Rule 2: Only 2 receivers at most can be linked to a transmitter.
DISPLAY SLEEP
The Rx will stop outputting HDMI if no source is present for 10 minutes. This allows the display
to go to sleep when the source is off.
SWITCH TIME
Can be up to 7 seconds because an EDID has to happen each time.
FREQUENCY SPECTRUM
This product uses 5GHz WIFI channels so it can be affected by outside interference in the same
way as any wifi device. This product uses non-DFS channels.
IR PASSBACK
If using a source device which has a remote control, this product allows the remote to be
pointed at the display in the remote location. The IR signal is relayed from the Rx to the Tx to
the source device.
To make this happen the IR blaster and receiver cables mush be used.
•The diode on the blaster must be as close as possible to the source IR receiver.
•The diode on the receiver must be in line-of-sight of the remote control.

MATRIX
1. Connect sources to Tx, and displays to
Rx
2. Set each Tx to different channels. You
cannot have two Tx sharing same
channel.
3. Adjust channel on each Rx to switch
which source is shown.
The maximum number of devices in a matrix
system is 2 x 2.
Because you can use 10 x Tx simultaneously you could have 5 discrete matrix systems, or a
blend of Matrix, Distribution, and Switching systems running at the same time.
DISTRIBUTION
Shows content from one source on two
displays.
1. Connect source to Tx, and displays to
Rxs
2. Set them all to the same channel.
Because you can use 10 x Tx simultaneously you could have 10 discrete Distribution systems, or
a blend of Matrix, Distribution, and Switching systems running at the same time.

10
TC-HDMIWM_manual_en.doc
SWITCHING
Up to 10 sources, and one receiver.
1. Connect sources to Txs, and display to Rx
2. Set each Tx to different channels.
3. Change channel on Rx to determine which source it displays.
It is possible to have multiple switching systems in the same
environment; the limitation is the number of Tx in total: 10.
Because you can use 10 x Tx simultaneously you could have a
blend of Matrix, Distribution, and Switching systems running at the
same time.
PRESENT BUTTON
If you have just one display, you can use PRESENT button on the
front panel of Txs (or remote control).
This button sends a command to Rx saying “switch to my
channel”. To activate set dip switch on rear of all devices to “1RX”.
`
If system has more than one receiver this function cannot be used.

INFO ONSCREEN DISPLAY
Press i button on remote control to display channel information, showing other SSID device in
the area. It shows signal strength and Wifi congestion to help trouble-shoot.
Note: To show all SSID in range the Rx must not be “connected” to any Tx when you do this.
Change the Rx channel to an unused channel first.
Note: if you are having problems and need to Contact Us via www.visionaudiovisual.com please
send a photo of the information on this screen.
