We recommend that you:

 to check for up-to-date user manuals, 

application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate). 

Achieving Best Performance 

  Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-performance, 

high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to 
poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables). 

  Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils. 

  Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely 

influence signal quality.  

  Position your Kramer
