Troubleshooting

There is no display on the screen.
It has been found that there are significant differences in the cable lengths/types and even input ports which can be used on different brands of display using HDMI resolutions. If problems are experienced, please apply the following steps:

  • Reset the splitter unit using the On/Off push button.
  • Try a different input port on the display.
  • Reduce the cable length on the Input and Output to 1m.
  • Try a different type of 1m HDMI Cable.
  • Check that the DC plug and jack used by the external power supply is firmly connected.
  • For some HDMI devices it may be helpful to unplug and reconnect their HDMI connection to re-initiate the HDMI handshake and recognition.
