Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the LINDY DVI Switch Remote. This high performance switch allows you to connect multiple DVI/HDMI devices to a single DVI/HDMI equipped TV, projector or TFT monitor.

Designed for Home Theatre/Cinema installations, the DVI Switch Remote supports HDCP signals and HDTV resolutions of up to 1080p. VGA analogue sources are also supported, when used with the correct adapters. Please note, however, that there is no signal conversion from analogue to digital or vice versa – this means the monitor has to support and auto-switch between active analogue and digital input by itself. Switching between devices is achieved using the push button on the switch or the supplied infra-red remote control. The remote control is designed to allow reconfiguration of the IR codes to resolve IR conflicts with other devices.

Installation

Note: Please make sure all devices are turned off before beginning the installation

1. Using a DVI cable (not included), connect your display or projector to the DVI OUT port on the DVI Switch Remote.

2. Connect each of your source devices (e.g. DVD player, PC, Set-Top Box) to the DVI IN ports.

3. Plug the mains adapter into the power supply socket and then into the mains, to power on the DVI Switch Remote.

4. Power on all the connected devices.

Note: If your devices are equipped with an HDMI connector you can use DVI to HDMI cables or adapters. Please be aware, however, that the DVI interface

supports display signals only. Therefore, you will need to make separate audio connections from your source to your display/amplifier etc.

Operation

You can select the input source in two ways: from the push button on the front of the switch or via the infra-red remote control.

Front Panel Push Button Selection:

The front panel push button is used to select the current channel. Pressing the button during normal operation will cause the next channel to be selected.

Remote Control Selection:

Use the channel select buttons to directly select the required channels. The Channel Up/Down buttons allow you to move up and down the different channels.

Note: It is normal for there to be a short delay when switching between devices as the screen refreshes.

IR Code Selection:

When the unit is first powered on, the currently selected IR code will be displayed by the LED indicator (A, b, C, d). The default is A.

If the remote control conflicts with another device you can reconfigure it to use one of four different IR codes. Press and hold an IR code button (A, B, C or D) until the appropriate letter (A, b, C, d) is displayed by the LED indicator on the switch.

If the DVI Switch does not respond to the IR remote control, for instance after the battery has been replaced, simply press and hold any of the IR code buttons until it is registered and displayed by the LED indicator.

Connecting mixed VGA and DVI equipped devices

Please note: To connect analogue VGA devices, your display must feature either a 15 Way

VGA or a DVI-I (Analogue and digital) input. When connecting VGA analogue devices, you must use a combination if DVI-I cables and VGA

adapters to make the connection from both the device and the display to the DVI Switch Remote. This is because DVI-D cables do not support analogue signals.

Example:

1. To connect a PC equipped with a VGA output to the DVI IN port on the DVI Switch Remote, you can use either:

 A 2m VGA TO DVI Adapter Cable (LINDY No. 41206, UK only)

or...

 A DVI Analogue to VGA Adapter Cable (LINDY No. 41222) and a

3. Connect the DVI-I cable from the DVI Switch Remote’s DVI OUT port to the DVI-Female

4. Plug the DVI-I/splitter cable into the VGA and/or DVI inputs on your display.

Note: When connecting mixed VGA and DVI equipped devices to the DVI Switch Remote, we recommend you use a display that supports auto switching between digital and analogue inputs. If your display does not support this function, you will have to manually select the required input each time you switch between DVI and VGA devices.

Troubleshooting

The DVI Switch Remote does not respond to any commands from the remote control.

 If present, remove the plastic tab labelled ‘Remove this tab’ that ships with the remote

control.

 Make sure you are in line of sight of the DVI Switch Remote. Make sure that there are no

obstructions which may be blocking the infra-red signal from the remote control.

 Try switching channels using the push button on the switch. If this does not work, unplug

and plug all the connections as described in the Installation section earlier in this manual.

 Press and hold one of the IR code buttons until the code is displayed on the switch’s front

panel LED.

 Try unplugging and plugging all connections as described in the Installation section of this

manual.

 Ensure the battery is correctly installed in the remote control. Try a new battery (Type

CR2025)

There is no picture on the display.

 Check all connected devices are correctly switched on.  Make sure all cables and connectors are correctly installed.  If a computer is connected, hit a key or move the mouse to wake it from power saving mode.  If connecting mixed DVI/HDMI and VGA devices and your display does not support auto-

switching between analogue and digital inputs, you may have to manually select the correct line-in input on your display.

A connected DVD Player is set to Pause but restarts playback when the DVI Switch Remote port is switched

 This problem is caused by an incompatibility between the firmware of certain DVD Players

and DVI switch chipsets. Try installing the latest firmware update for your DVD player.

Er unterstützt digitale HDTV Signale einschließlich der HDCP Verschlüsselung bis zu den aktuell höchsten Auflösungen von 1080p sowie Computer-DVI-Signale bis 1920x1200 bis 60Hz. Analoge VGA Signale werden ebenfalls unterstützt und umgeschaltet, es findet jedoch keine Signalwandlung analog (VGA) nach digital DVI (DVI-D) statt! Wenn Sie gemischt analog und digitale Signalquellen verwenden muss Ihr Monitor die Darstellung beider Signalarten beherrschen! Das Umschalten erfolgt entweder über die mitgelieferte Fernbedienung oder über die Tasten an der Front des Switches.
