5. Panel Button Control

5.1 I/O Connection Switching

The front panel features eight input selection buttons and eight output selection buttons for switching I/O connection.

1) To convert 1 input to 1 output:

Example: Input 1 to Output 3

→ Press INPUTS 1 + OUTPUTS 3 + ENTER button.

2) To convert 1 input to 2~7 outputs:

Example: Input 1 to Output 3, Output 6, Output 7.

→ Press INPUTS 1 + OUTPUTS 3, Output 6, Output 7 + ENTER button.

3) To convert 1 input to 8 outputs:

Example: Convert Input 2 to all outputs

→ Press INPUTS 2 + ALL button + ENTER button.

Note: Indicators of the pressed buttons will blink blue for three times if the conversion

is done, then it will be off. If the conversion failed, they will be off immediately.

5.2 I/O Connection Inquiry

Press OUTPUTS button 1, 2, 3, 4,5,6,7 or 8 to inquiry its corresponding input, and then the indicator of the input button will turn blue.

5.3 LOCK Function

Long press the LOCK button for three seconds, all buttons on the front panel disable to work. And then long press the LOCK button for three seconds again or unlock on GUI control, the front panel button will unlock.

5.4 PRESET RECALL Function

Press and hold the PRESET 1~4 at least three seconds to save the current switching status to the corresponding preset 1~4.

Press the PRESET 1~4 to recall the saved preset 1~4.

Note: The matrix switcher supports six presets, but only preset 1~4 can be saved and recalled by button control. Please manage other preset by GUI control or RS232 control.

If the input sources, HDBaseT output devices and local HDMI output devices are supports CEC, they can be controlled by sending the following command instead of IR remote.

CEC[I/O][AA][BB][CC][DD].

l The “[I]” represents the input port. The “[O]” represents the output port.

l The “[AA]” represents the port number. The HDMI input ports are 01~08. The HDMI

output ports are 01~08.

l The “[AA]” is “FF” for sending command to all input or output ports.

l The “[BB]” represents the device type (e.g. TV: 40/20/80; Blu-ray DVD: 04/08).

l The “[CC]” represents the CEC function type (e.g. “44”: Remote control).

l The “[DD]” represents the specific command from the table below.

9. Firmware Upgrade

Please follow the steps as below to upgrade firmware by the FIRMWARE port on the rear panel:

1) Prepare the latest upgrade file and rename it as “08010000.APP” on PC.

2) Power off the switcher, and connect the FIRMWARE port of switcher to the PC with

USB cable.

3) Power on the switcher, and then the PC will automatically detect a U-disk named of

“BOOTDISK”.

4) Double-click the U-disk, a file named of “READY.TXT” would be showed.

5) Directly copy the latest upgrade file 08010000.APP (.bin) to the “BOOTDISK” U-

disk.

6) Reopen the U-disk to check the filename “READY.TXT” whether automatically

becomes “SUCCESS.TXT”, if yes, the firmware was updated successfully,

otherwise, the firmware updating is fail, the name of upgrade file (.bin) should be

confirm again, and then follow the above steps to update again.

7) Remove the USB cable after firmware upgrade.

8) After firmware upgrade, the switcher should be restored to factory default by

sending command.
