5. I have a picture but there is noise or “hum bars” visible in the image.
This could happen when crossing power lines when routing the cable from the “Source”
device to the KD-CDA12P, or when routing the cables from the KD-CDA12P to the
“Display” device. If crossing power lines is inevitable, make sure to use heavy shielded high
quality cable. Sometimes using a shielded and noise filtering surge protector can eliminate
noise in power lines.
6. I have No Audio.
When connecting the Left and Right (White and Red connector) stereo audio channel
make sure that the connectors are properly connected to the “Source” device as well as
the “Display” device.
Make sure that the volume is turned up to an audible level on the “Source” device as well
as the “Display” device.
When using the Digital Audio connection “PCM” or coaxial audio, make sure that the
“Display” device is capable of decoding this compressed bit stream of audio information.
Most often when using the “PCM” audio function, the audio will be connected to a Dolby
Digital
®
capable AV-Receiver or amplifier.

Troubleshooting
If the unit fails to properly distribute the “Source” signal even after all of the devices in the system
have been connected, the correct power supply has been connected, and the Source and Display
device(s) are known to be operational, try the following suggestions.
1. No power to the unit.
Make sure that the external power supply is properly connected to a standard household
outlet. Check to make sure the power indicator light is green. If there is no power light,
check and verify that the wall outlet is active by plugging in a known good component (like
a desk lamp). For added safety and protection it is always recommended to use a good
quality surge protector.
Check to make sure that the power connector is properly inserted into the KD-CDA12P.
Unplug the adapter from the wall and verify that the cable is not cut or interrupted
anywhere.
If none of the above works, please contact Key Digital
™
technical support.
2. There is no signal displayed on the “Display” device.
Verify the Sync or Green connector on all of your video connections; make sure it is
connected to the correct input/output jack of the “Source” as well as the “Display” device.
Make sure that the “Source” can be displayed by the connected “Display” device; for
example: if the “Display” device connected to the output is not capable of handling HDTV
compatible video signals make sure that the “Source” device is set to output SD (Standard
definition or 480i) compatible signals.
3. There is a signal but it is Black and White, Green or Pink in Nature.
This is indicative of a mismatch between “Source” and “Display” device in the component
video connections.
Make sure that the “Source” signal is of a valid format that can be displayed by the
connected “Display” device; for example: If the “Display” device connected cannot handle
HDTV compatible video signals make sure that the “Source” device is set output SD
(Standard Definition or 480i) compatible signals.
4. I have a picture but it is scrolling across the screen of my “Display”.
This happens when the input signal is not compatible with the “Display” device. Make
sure that the “Source” signal is of a valid format that can be displayed by the connected
“Display” device; for example: if the “Display” device connected is not capable of handling
HDTV compatible video signals make sure that the “Source” device is set to output SD
(Standard Definition or 480i) compatible signals.
