IMPORTANT! HDMI Wiring Guidelines
The use of patch panels, wall plates, cable extenders, kinks in cables, and electrical or environmental interference will have an adverse effect on HDMI transmission limiting performance. Steps should be taken to minimize or remove these factors completely during installation for best results. WyreStorm recommends using high quality WyreStorm Essentials 8K HDMI cables such as WyreStorm Essentials to ensure the highest content performance available.

Installation and Operation

2. Connect HDMI display devices to the HDMI OUT ports of the splitter.
   Note: The splitter is powered via mains power supply to the unit. WyreStorm recommend using only power adapter supplied.

3. The splitter powers on once connected to the mains. Ensure the LED power indicators are fully lit. If not, check power cable is firmly connected.

EDID Dip Switch Settings
The dipswitch on the splitter allows for changing the EDID management and downscaler on/off function. Use the table below to configure the splitters EDID mode based on the application’s requirement.

3. Reboot the device after setting the EDID
4. About Smart EDID Use when both connected displays have different maximum resolution capabilities (e.g., a 4K display and a 1080p display). Smart EDID will analyze EDID’s of all connected displays to determine the highestcommon resolution between the 5 on-board EDID’s, so the source will output video at a resolution that all displays support.
5. Fixed EDIDs only include uncompressed FRL video data.
6. Fixed EDIDs all support audio formats up to PCM 2CH and compressed audio up to
