The popularity of HDMI products has been increasing for several years andis now commonly seen in residential and commercial settings. As people
become accustomed to HDMI and use it more often, they acquire multiple
devices and then ﬁnd that they need something to help them link them
together. So the need for an HDMI matrix that can interconnect multiple
sources and different inputs has become an obsession for some. Well noneed to worry because our “HDMI V1.3 Matrix” is a powerful tool that you canuse to handle all of your HDMI needs. Furthermore the matrix supports HDMI
1.3, HDCP 1.1 and DVI 1.0, and can transfer Deep Color video and bit stream
digital audio with fantastic performance. Lastly the input EDID is independent
allowing each input to switch between TV or the built-in EDID.

① LCM monitor: This monitor displays your settings information with each
output and input selection.
② IR sensor.
③ POWER: Press this button to turn the system on. Once the system turns on
the LED will turn Green and when entering Standby Mode it will turn Red.
Once the system turns on the LED will turn Green and when entering
Standby Mode it will turn Red.
④ EDID: There will be two selections shown on the LCM: 1. TV mode and2.Standard Mode, press the number key to ﬁrst select the desired input
and then press one or two to select the EDID mode. The LED will turn on
when setting the EDID. After the selection is made, press enter key toconﬁrm. Standard mode means the device will use internal built-in EDID
and TV mode means the device will use TV/display’s EDID. When EDID isin TV mode,
Notes:
1. When EDID is switched to a TV the device will ﬁrst detect the HDMI
output source’s EDID from A-D and then record it in the unit regardlessof the HDMI output source from E-H. If the ﬁrst detected output source isDVI it will pass on to the next source, until the ﬁrst HDMI is detected. The
detection priority is HDMI v1.3 > HDMI v1.2 > DVI. In order to ensure all
output is displayable output from E-H must be of a lower standard thenoutput from A-D.
2. When EDID is on STD, the device will use the built-in EDID

cable to your host, in order to upgrade your firmware.
③ RS-232: This slot is where you connect a D-sub 9 female pin connector
cable to your host so you can control an 8x8 HDMI Matrix.
④ USB SERVICE: This slot is where you connect a USB b type connector cableto your host for ISP (System Program) firmware burning, for a total of four.
⑤ IR IN: This slot is where you can extend your IR receiver with an IR extendercable that accepts only 38KHz.
⑥ HDMI INPUT 1~8: These slots are where you connect the output cable ofyour HDMI or DVI source, such as DVD players or Set Top Boxes.
⑦ DC 24V: Plug the 24V DC power supply into the unit and connect theadaptor to an AC wall outlet.

78. Remote Control
This remote control can be set with multipal format
according to the dipswitch setting. There are totalof four dipswitches with mainly two kinds of settings.
When dipswitches are all set to ON/↑ the remotecontrol is able to control all outputs and all inputs.
For example, when output A wish to select input
5. Press 1 ﬁrst and wait for a second then press 5,
the output display A will display input source 5’s
image instantly. Other settings referring to below
section 8.2 section 8.2 are output based to control
input selections. For example, when all dipswitches
are set to OFF/↓ this setting is base on output Aand therefore, it can only control inputs selection.
Hence, when output A wish to selelct input 3 press
3 only will switch output display A to display input
source 3’s contents. Further setting please refers tosection 8.2.
