7. Infrared receiver for the remote control
8. PASS EDID mode: the audio format is determined by the display
9. 2.0 EDID mode: the audio format is limited to stereo
10. 5.1 EDID mode: the audio format is set to Dolby Digital / Dolby Digital Plus (if available, otherwise stereo)
11. LED is lit when the audio format corresponds to OUT A. When the LED is off, the audio format is optimised for output OUT B.

HDMI 2.1 transmission

For HDMI 2.1 transmission to be possible, e.g. 4K 120Hz for gaming, both connected HDMI displays must support HDMI 2.1. Mixed operation with HDMI 2.0 is not possible.

Dolby Vision / HDR10+ / 3D Video

In order for a player to output these video formats, both connected displays must support them. If, for example, the TV at output A supports Dolby Vision, but the projector at output B does not, the output is HDR10.

Downscaler

The switch has an automatic downscaler so that a 4K and a Full HD display can be operated at the same time. The 4K video signal is thus reduced to 1080p resolution for the Full HD device. At the same time, the 4K device receives the original signal. The frame rate cannot be changed in the process. A maximum of 4K 60Hz can be scaled; 1080p 60Hz is then output on the Full-HD TV.

Audio EDID

Select PASS if you are not using the audio outputs on the switch. Use the A/B button to select whether the maximum audio format of the device at output A or B is used. If, for example, a TV with a sound bar is operated at output B, set B here. The LED A/B is then not lit. If the „better“ sound system is connected to output A, press the A/B key on the switch for 3 seconds or use the A-B key on the remote control. The Audio EDID of OUT A is used. The LEDs A/B and PASS then light up.

Remote control

All functions can be controlled with the supplied infrared remote control, which is powered by a CR2025 battery.
