Manual EDID is loaded by PC Tool
3 Rear Panel
LAN(10M/100M), RS232 are for PC control
Analog Audio IN/OUT ports bind to corresponding HDMI ports.
For example:
If HDMI 1 audio source is selected with External LR by PC Tool, then analog AUDIO IN LR1 (with
ф3.5mm jacket) will be selected to replace the embedded audio of the HDMI input 1 data stream. If
HDMI 1 audio source is selected with AUTO by PC TOOL, then will use the original embedded audio of
input HDMI 1 as its audio data stream.
If the input is DVI signal, no matter how it is set up, system will get external analog audio input.Analog
AUDIO OUT n will always output the same audio content with HDMI OUTPUT n Analog Audio
IN/OUT connection
IR IN and IR OUT
IR IN/OUT is for remote control routing, and follow the video routing.
For example, if input HDMI m is routed to output HDMI n1 and n2 ports, then IR IN n1 and n2 ports
will be routed to IR OUT m port. Please refer bellow illustration.
