Caused by a bad quality of cable. Please try another high quality cable.

sure the power cord connection is good.

Check with oscilloscope or multimeter if there is any signal at the input/output
end. If there is no signal input/output, it may be the input/output connection
cord broken or the connectors loosen. Please change for another cable or
connect again.
If it is still the same after the above checking, maybe there is something wrong
in the switcher. Please send it to the dealer for fixing.

probably due to the incorrect grounding, please correct it otherwise it would

through RS232 commands, maybe the front panel buttons are locked. Please send

port or IR remote, the switcher may have broken. Please send it to the dealer for
