Application Example

Situation 1

MuxLab-SE-001042-A-HDMI-2-1-48Gbps-4x1-Switcher-fig-5

  • When the ARC/eARC function is turned off, the connection diagram is as following. At this moment, the optical audio or analog audio is from the selected input channel.

Situation 2

MuxLab-SE-001042-A-HDMI-2-1-48Gbps-4x1-Switcher-fig-6

When the ARC/eARC function is turned on, select the input port 1 by pressing the “Selection” button on the front panel or the 1 button on the IR remote, then connect the “IN 1(eARC)” port to a Soundbar to output the audio signal returned from the “OUT (eARC)” port, as shown in the figure below. (For example, when the user watches TV APP, the Switcher will pass-through TV eARC/ARC audio to the Soundbar.) At this moment, the optical audio or L/R audio is from the returned audio of the 8K TV connected to OUT(eARC).

Note:

  1. If the 8K TV supports ARC/eARC function, the Soundbar will receive the audio signal returned from the TV, and then emit the sound; otherwise it will not emit sound.
  2. The IN 1 channel will be locked when it is selected as the input source. At this moment, other input channels will not be identified automatically even if the Auto Switching is enabled. For example, if the IN 3 is connected to a source device now, and it will not be output as the signal source automatically because the IN 1 is locked.

Situation 3

MuxLab-SE-001042-A-HDMI-2-1-48Gbps-4x1-Switcher-fig-7

  • When the ARC/eARC function is turned on, select the input port 2/3/4 by pressing the “Selection” button on the front panel or the buttons on the IR remote.
  • If connect the “IN 1(eARC)” port to a Soundbar now, it will output the audio signal from the selected input channel.
  • At this moment, the optical audio or L/R audio is also from the selected input channel.
