EDID Control switch: This EDID control switch is determined if you are going to use the EDID from the display attached to output 1 or use an onboard EDID. When select to TV, the EDID will attach to output 1 and send the signal according to output 1's EDID. Therefore, it is suggested to put lowest or the most compatitive display specification on output 1. When selected to STD, the EDID will become onboard EDID which supports video up to 1080p 50/60Hz and PCM2Ch for audio. The factory default setting is in TV mode.

②

HDMI Output 5~8: These slots are to connect to the HDMI displays. When more than one output is connected, the HDMI output play identical video signal simultaneously.

③

HDMI Input: This slot is to connect to HDMI or DVI source equipment such as DVD player or set-top-box for input video and audio sending.

④

Sync LED: This red LED will illuminate when the HDMI source signal is connected to the output display.

⑤

System Reset/CEC ON: When switch to System Reset, the system will send the internal CEC command to the display within 8~10 minutes to force all the displays switch to HDMI port 1’s EDID. Meanwhile, the source CEC Command will not functional to the system. When switch CEC in ON, the CEC Command will be active according to each output display’s EDID.

②

HDMI Out 4/ARC/Ethernet: Connect Ethernet and Audio Return Channel to capabilities of TV, the TV will pass the Ethernet and Audio signal via HDMI input to HDMI port 4. The HDMI port 4 will separate the Ethernet and audio and send it out from ARC and Ethernet ports. For the ARC, the user had a TV with a built-in tuner or DVD player and wanted to send content

“

upstream” from the TV back to the audio system to play any multi-channel audio. The HDMI Ethernet Channel, it can consolidates video, audio and data streams into a single HDMI cable to the Ethernet Hub/AP to access the Internet and it incorporates a dedicated data channel into the HDMI link, enabling high-speed, bi-directional networking at up to 100Mb/sec to control and search from the TV.

Note:

1. Be sure to connect devices with one of the new cables designed to support HDMI Ethernet Channel functionality, either the Standard HDMI Cable with Ethernet or High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet.

2. If the HDMI port 4 with the Audio and ARC are exist at the same time, the ARC will be the ﬁrst priority to access.

③

HDMI Out 1~3: Connect each of the output ports to the HDMI display. When more than one output connected, the HDMI output play identical video signal simultaneously.

④

Power LED Indicator: The LED will illuminate when the power is connected.
