Button Control

Front panel buttons can be used for source selections, output resolution adjusting, front panel buttons management, software updating and output screen setting. (Please refer to chapter 2.1 ).

Here is the detail information for source selections:
There are 6 sources for choose in total, including HDMI1, HDMI2, HDMI3, HDMI4, VGA1, VGA2. Video signals support auto-switching and manual-switching (factory default). Press and hold for SOURCE/AUTO for 3 seconds or more to enter in auto-switching/manual-switching mode.

Manual-switching

Dial ◀ to select the previous source, dial ▶ to select the next source.

Auto-switching

In this mode, select input source via front panel button (◀ ▶) is not available, but RS232 command and IR remote are able to switch mode. The auto LED turn green and keep on.

The auto-switching mode abides by the following principles:

  • New input principle: Once detecting a new input signal, PT-PSW-61 would switch to this new signal automatically.
  • Rebooting device principle: PT-PSW-61 have the ability of power-off memory. If the last switching mode is auto-switching, once rebooted, PT-PSW-61 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, PT-PSW-61 will output the signal. If not, the unit will detect all the inputs signals with priority from HDMI1 to VGA2. When detected the first signal, it will transfer to output.
  • Signal removing principle: Once removing the current display signal, PT-PSW-61 will detect all input signals with priority from HDMI1 to VGA2. It will transfer the signal firstly detected to be available to output devices.

Operation Examples

  • Connect HDMI2, HDMI4, and VGA2 ports with source devices, select HDMI4 to outputs.
  • Press and hold for the front button SOURCE/AUTO for 3 seconds or more to enter in auto-switching mode.
  • Connect HDMI3 with a source device, and then it will choose HDMI3 to output.
  • Remove the signal of HDMI3, PT-PSW-61 will detect from HDMI1 to VGA2. And when it detects that HDMI2 is available, it will choose HDMI2 to output.
  • Cut off the power of PT-PSW-61, then reboot. As the unit is in auto-switching mode, it will choose HDMI2 to output.
