CONNECTION DIAGRAM CONNECT AND OPERATE 1. Connect your sources such as a Blu-Ray Player, game console, A/V Receiver, Cable or Satellite Receiver, etc. on the unit with HDMI cable(s). Insert and extract cables carefully with the power switched off. Connecting and disconnecting while the unit is powered can result in damage to circuitry. 2. If you are routing digital or analog audio to an amplifier or audio video receiver, do so by either connecting a 3.
TROUBLE-SHOOTING 1. Best results are usually achieved when the source and display resolutions are the same. If resolutions differ, the extenders will try to adjust the signal to match the resolution of the HDTV with the lowest resolution. This will result in a picture with a lower resolution on the other HDTV sets. 2. If you do not get audio and video, access the “setup” menu on the TV to adjust the audio and video settings.
