3.3 Matrix VGA switch installation
Steps sequence:
1. Use HDB15 male to male cables to connect the VGA ports of your monitors or
projectors to the VGA ports of VGA switches.
2. Use HDB15 male to male cables to connect the VGA port of your computers
to the VGA ports of VGA switches.
3. Connect the speaker to the audio output ports.
4. Plug in DC 5V external power adaptor in final step.
Precaution Notes:
1. The DDC (Display Data Channel) complies with each same
channel of PC and monitor respectively. (for example, Monitor 1PC1,
Monitor2PC2,…..etc.)
2. If you need to change monitor connected to the other one but still
connected on same computer port, or if the PC changed to the other one,
we strongly recommend rebooting the computer to detect refreshing
signals between monitor and computer, and then video displayed would
be fed back to required quality.
