5. Special Functions Introduction
5.1. Looping Output Function Introduction
Looping output function is supported in CVSH2, showed in Figure 3 . In this mode, the
signal pass through the SDI IN port to the SDI LOOP port of the first converter, and the
SDI LOOP output port can be connected to the SDI IN port of the next converter, and so
on. Finally it makes a looping output. In this way, one input signal can be allocated to
several outputs. This is a good solution for a single input with lots of display devices.
Note: With 3G-SDI signal, only two converters can be used in a looping connection.
