TROUBLE-SHOOTING

1. 

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

If resolutions differ, the extenders will try to adjust the signal to match the resolution of 

the HDTV with the lowest resolution. This will result in a picture with a lower resolution 

on the other HDTV sets.

2. 

If you do not get audio and video, access the “setup” menu on the TV to adjust the audio 

and video settings. If the HDMI control circuit cannot establish a handshake, then there 

usually will be no audio or video in addition to a blue or black screen with a statement 

similar to “this protocol not supported” or “weak signal”.

3. 

If the above mentioned messages display, reset the receiver by disconnecting the power 

supply. You can also disconnect all of the HDMI and power cables, wait 15 minutes for 

any voltages to decay and then reconnect all of the cables.

4. 

If you are still encountering issues, attempt the “hot-plug concept. With all of the HDMI 

cables disconnected, turn on the source and plug in the HDMI cable into it’s output, 

then power up the Vanco unit and plug the HDMI cable into it’s input, finally turn on the 

display and plug the HDMI cable from the receiver into it. This activates all of the devices 

in corresponding order and results in a signal being plugged into a device that is on and 

will attempt to connect the signal.

5. 

Most of the major source 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 issue. Sometimes a player, an audio/video receiver, 

or a cable/satellite box may not have the latest software update, usually this can be 

downloaded from the manufacturer’s website.

6. 

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

plugged into extender receiver and pointed at the display, and the IR TX pigtail is 

attached to the extender sender and pointed at the source.
