Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the HDMI 18G Audio Extractor. This product has been designed to provide trouble free, reliable operation. It benefits from both a LINDY 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support. To ensure correct use, please read this manual carefully and retain it for future reference. The Lindy HDMI 18G Audio Extractor allows the user to seamlessly extract both digital and analogue audio from an HDMI source and output to an audio device in either format, while sending the video signal to a 4K display or projector.
