NOTE: If you want to watch 3D video, make sure that your TV or projector supports the
same HDMI 3D video format as your source. A 3D image cannot be delivered to a TV or

that are compatible with 3D video, such as Rocketsh high-speed HDMI cables.

POWER/SELECT
button on your switcher for at least two seconds. The power LED

is connected to. If you are uncertain how to do this, see the documentation
that came with your TV or projector.
3 Turn on the HDMI
