Application

The Scaler Switcher has a good application in various occasions, such as computer realm, monitoring, conference room, big screen displaying, television education, command & control center and smart home etc.

Button Control

Front panel buttons can be used for source selections, there are 4 sources for choose in total, including HDMI, DP, DVI, VGA. Video signals support auto-switching and manual switching (factory default).

Manual Switching

Press to SOURCE/AUTO button select one source, press again to select next source, switching sequentially between HDMI, DP, DVI and VGA.

Auto Switching

Press and hold for SOURCE/AUTO button for 3 seconds or more to enter in auto-switching mode. In this mode, the Scaler Switcher will follow these rules to select input source automatically.

• New input: Once detecting a new input signal, the Scaler Switcher would switch to this new signal automatically.
• Rebooting device: The Scaler Switcher have the ability to save the last configuration before losing power. If the last switching mode is auto-switching, once rebooted, the Scaler Switcher will automatically enter auto-switching mode, and then detect all inputs and memorize their connection status for future rebooting using. If the last displayed signal is still available, the unit will output the signal. If not, the unit will detect all the inputs signals with priority from HDMI to VGA. When detected the first signal, it will transfer to output.
• Signal removing: Once removing the current display signal, the Scaler Switcher will detect all input signals with priority from HDMI to VGA. When detected the first signal, it will transfer to output.

Note: In manual-switching mode, if you set the signal format of VGA/DVI input to C-video or YPbPr, the system will not be able to enter Auto-switching mode.In auto-switching mode, if the signal format of DVI input is C-video/YPbPr, the Scaler Switcher can’t detect the DVI input, the command 50686% should be sent via PC to convert C-video/YPbPr into digital signal format, and then the Scaler Switcher will enterIn auto-switching mode, select input source via front panel button is not available, but RS232 command and IR remote are able to switch mode.
