Downscaling
So you’ve got an older 1080p TV you would like to still use along with your newer 4K TV. That is no problem
with the downscaling ability of the EVMX4K42. Without this feature, your 4K source(s) would handshake with
both TVs and would choose 1080p for both outputs. Why? The source(s) need to output a common resolution
that all displays can handle, and since the 1080p TV cannot handle 4K, all outputs would be sent a 1080p
signal, including the 4K TV. To activate this feature, press the downscaling button on the front panel (or 4K/
HD on the IR remote) labeled “4K -> 1080p” and select which output has the 1080p display connected to. The
output will illuminate.
Control
In addition to auto switching, there are a couple of ways to manually control the switching of sources. The front
panel has a button for each output, to select the input. The included IR remote also gives the ability to switch
sources either sequentially or choosing a specific input. Keep in mind, the EVMX4K42 needs to be exposed so
that the IR remote can reach it, notice the IR sensor is on the front panel.
Need to hide the EVMX4K42? No problem, Vanco has many IR solutions that will repeat and extend IR signals
so the matrix switcher can be hidden from plain site. Simply visit www.vanco1.com to see our IR distribution
