IMPORTANT: Make sure that you power up all baluns, sources and displays.
Confirm that you have an active connection on the Balun indicated by the solid
red “LINK” LED.
1.
By default, the KD-HDMS8x8 is configured to accept a direct HDMI connection. When using
a KD-BBTX, you MUST change the input mode from HDMI to CAT5 to enable the switcher to
“see” the CAT5/Balun input. Select “6-Video Input Setup” from the main menu. Press the right
selector to navigate to the sub-menus. Using the left selector, scroll to the Input number you
wish to change. Using the right selector, scroll to select “CAT5” and press the right selector to
enter your choice.
2.
Repeat procedure for any other input where a KD-BBTX is being used.
3.
Once you have correctly configured the inputs to accept either HDMI and/or CAT5/Balun, you
need to establish the correct HDMI “handshake”.
4.
See previous section on establishing an HDMI handshake.
