TROUBLE-SHOOTING

1.  Best results are usually achieved when the source and display resolutions are the same. If resolutions 

differ, the matrix switch will try to adjust the signal to match the resolution of the HD TV with the lowest 
resolution. This will result in a picture with a lower resolution on the other HD TV sets.

2.  If you do not get audio and video see if you can use the “set-up” menu on the TV to adjust the audio 

settings and the video settings. If the HDMI control circuit can’t establish a hand-shake, then there usually 
will be no audio or video and a blue or black screen with a statement like “this protocol not supported” or 
“weak signal”.

3.  If you get the above messages, re-set the matrix switch using the button on the front panel. Alternately, 

you can disconnect all of the HDMI and power cables, wait 10 or 15 minutes for any voltages to decay and 
then connect all of the cables from the source, to the matrix switch and to the display.

4.  If you still have trouble, then try the “hot-plug concept. Turn-on the source and plug the HDMI cable to it 

and then power-up the matrix switch and plug the cable into it, then plug the output cable into the matrix 
switch  and finally turn-on the display and plug the cable from the matrix switch into it. This activates all of 
the devices in order and results into a signal being plugged-in to a device that is on and will try to connect 
to the signal.

5.  Most of the major player and display manufacturers employ a proprietary control channel to communicate 

between devices from the same manufacturer. Sometimes this can interfere with the HDMI control circuit 
or the authentication of the signal. Call the manufacturer if you experience this problem. Sometimes a 
player, an audio/video receiver, or a cable/satellite box may not have the latest software update and needs 
to have this downloaded from the manufacturer’s web site.

6.  If you have problems with the IR control circuit, make sure that the IR RX pigtail is plugged into the IR 

Adapter and the toggle is set to “IR”. Check the batteries in the remote control that was supplied.
