The quality of the output signal depends on the quality of video
source, cable, and display device used. Low-quality cables degrade
output signals causing elevated noise levels. Use the proper cable
and make sure the display device can handle the resolution and
refresh rate selected. Interference from nearby electrical devices can
adversely affect signal quality.

5. Troubleshooting
Symptom
: Video does not display
Possible Cause
: Wrong installation process.
Solution
: The video splitter requires at least one monitor
connection before powering on the source device.
Symptom
: Erratic behavior
Possible Cause
: Splitter may not receive enough power.
Solution
: Check the power adapter attached to the splitter to
make sure it matches the system specifications, and is functioning
properly.
Symptom
: Not receiving picture or sound.
Possible Cause
: The signal source may require a display device that
is HDCP compliant.
Solution
: Check if the display monitor is HDCP compliant. HDCP
prevents the transfer of digital content to unauthorized HDMI
devices.
Symptom
: The display monitor is added to the unit by hot-plug,
but the video source may not support hot-plug.
Possible Cause
: Check if the video source supports hot-plug. If it
doesn’t, shut down the source device and reboot it again. The
attached devices are not connected properly.
Solution
: Check if you connected your components correctly.
