Key Functions
Screen Mirroring
If you’re working on a PC and want its apps and content to be shown on another
screen, you’ll want to consider mirroring your PC’s screen to that screen.
With screen mirroring support, the device allows you to share your mobile
devices’ content wirelessly on any HDMI displays over Airplay Mirroring,
Miracast and Dongle.
In this manual, mobile devices available for screen mirroring are referred to
as “screen mirroring source”, which include Apple devices (iPhone/iPad/Mac),
Android phones, Windows PCs and Dongles.
(1) Screen Mirroring over Airplay (for Apple Devices)
1. Connect your iPhone/iPad/Mac to the soft AP of the device.
Soft AP SSID: As same as the switcher’s device name and can be obtained from OSD at the upper right of the display screen. By default, it is set as SW- 640L-TX-W. Password: Set through Web UI or Telnet API and can be obtained from OSD at the bottom right of the display screen. By default, it is set as 12345678.
2. Open Control Center on your Apple device, tap up menu.
to select appropriate mirroring device (default device name is SW-640L-TX-W) from the pop-
3. To disconnect Apple device from the switcher: click Stop Mirroring, the display stops displaying your device’s screen.
(2) Screen Mirroring over Miracast (for Android Phones & Windows PCs)
For Android mobiles (take Samsung Galaxy series for example): 1. Enable the
Wi-Fi or WLAN feature of your mobile device. 2. On your mobile device, swipe
down from the top and tap or to select appropriate mirroring device from the
pop-up CONNECT menu. 3. To disconnect mobile phone from the switcher: click
“DISCONNECT” on your mobile phone’s screen.
Note: · The icon, instruction and entrance of the Miracast function may vary
on different Android mobiles, please refer to your mobile’s manual to get
accurate instruction. · If you fail to use Miracast function, please disable
the mobile’s Wi-Fi and enable it later, or restart the mobile if necessary.
For Windows PC (Window 10 or higher): 1. Enable the Wi-Fi or WLAN feature of
your PC. 2. On your PC, press the combination keys ” + K” to select
appropriate mirroring device from the pop-up menu. 3. To disconnect PC from
the device: click Disconnect, the display stops displaying PC’s screen.
Note: The icon and interface of the Miracast function may vary on different
computers. Some Windows 10/11 computers may fail to perform screen mirroring
over Miracast due to compatibility issues.
Tip: Both the Airplay mirroring and Miracast support access code. If you see
the PIN entry window appears on your devices, input the access code which can
be obtained through OSD. (See “OSD” section for more information.)
(3) Screen Mirroring over Dongle
A Dongle (APO DG2) enables users to share laptop’s content on a display
wirelessly without even installing an application.
To pair a Dongle:
1. Pair a Dongle with the device. Connect a Dongle to the DONGLE PAIRING port
of the device for pairing. Once pairing is completed, “Pairing successful”
appears on the display screen.
2. Connect the Dongle to a laptop. Connect the Dongle to the laptop, it will
start running and connecting to the device’s soft AP. Once the Dongle connects
to the device successfully, the Dongle LED stops blinking and starts lighting
constantly.
3. Now press the Dongle’s projecting button, you can share your laptop’s
screen on the display immediately. Press and hold the button for at least 5
seconds, you will have your laptop’s screen displayed in full screen.

Projecting button
Note: For more information about the Dongle, see its user guide.
Multiview Display
When only one HDMI display is attached to either HDMI OUT1 or HDMI OUT2, the device supports up to four video sources to be played on the display screen as the following:
1
2
1
2
1
1
2
3
4
3
1. As the video sources to be displayed increase or decrease, the device
automatically changes to a new screen layout so that all video sources can be
displayed appropriately on the entire screen.
2. As the video sources increase till there’s no available screen layout to
accommodate for all these sources, if a new video source inputs, the source
that displays on the screen for the longest will be displaced by the latest
input source.
If you use the SELECT button on front panel to select a video source to be
played, the device will exit Multiview Display mode and display the source in
full screen.
Automatic Signal Switching
The device supports automatic signal switching function, allowing you to
easily and quickly output desired sources. It follows Last-In-First-Out rule:
1. When only one video source is connected to the device, HDMI OUT 1 and/or
HDMI OUT 2 will automatically output this video source to the display
screen(s).
2. When a video source is to be input in the case that four video sources are
being played in quadruple view on one display screen, this latest input source
will displace the source that is present the longest. More information, see
the switching mechanism in Multiview Display section.
3. When no active video source is connected to the device, the output display
shows the Guide Screen image finally.
The device also provides three methods to select specific video source
manually:
1. Using the front panel buttons to output corresponding hardware video
source. 2. Using web UI. 3. Using API commands. For more information, please
see the separate API documentation.
Display Mechanism of HDMI OUT1 & HDMI OUT2
By default, when HDMI OUT1 and HDMI OUT2 are connected to two display screens
respectively, the two output ports work as follows:
1. Each of the HDMI outputs displays the video in full screen view. 2. If the

security, which supports the following two network modes: Transparent Mode
(Default Setting) In this mode, all three Ethernet ports are inter-connective
with others, any one of which is able to connect to the LAN where a controller
resides for controlling the device, and the rest can be used for BYOD.
Isolated Mode When the configuration item “Secure Ethernet Mode” on web UI are
set to Enable, Isolated mode is activated. For more information about enabling
“Secure Ethernet Mode”, refer to Secure Ethernet Mode section. In Isolated
mode, the CONTROL port is used for controlling the device; the other two are
