The source can then...
5.2 Rear Panel Part1: IR Channel IR EXT: if the panel sensor is obstructed or the unit is installed in a closed area out of infrared line of sight, the IR RX receiver included can be inserted into the IR EXT port at the rear to extend the IR sensor range and enable local control of the matrix. IR IN/OUT: Super IR control system interface. for further details, please refer to the Super IR system control introduction. Part2: VGA CV AND AUDIO INPUT Connect to the VGA or CV input source devices such as a DVD player, a Set-top Box or PC with VGA cable or RCA cable.Each VGA or CV input is accompanied with a 3.5mm stereo audio coaxial input. Part 3: PC CONTROL TCP/IP: This port is the link for TCP/IP controls, connect to an active Ethernet link with an RJ45 terminated cable. RS232: Connect to a PC or control system with D-Sub 9-pin cable for the transmission of RS-232 commands. Part4: OUTPUT The HDMI OUTPUT connect to HDMI equipped TVs. Part5: HDMI INPUT Connect to the HDMI input source devices such as a DVD player or a Set-top Box with HDMI cable.
different mode; and in video wall mode, press buttons IN/M1, IN/M2, IN/M3, IN/M4 select different input. (6).Picture adjust: In video wall mode, users can set the bezel size of the adjacent images in zoom-in model, to make the whole image looks coherently 7. IR Control system At Matrix end: Insert the 3.5mm jacks of the IR TX Emitters included with the unit into the IR TX Emitter ports at the rear of the matrix according to input. The IR signal is added to the HDMI of the input device so, for example, if the user is watching Blu-ray on input 1, the IR signal will be directed through the IR TX1 socket to control the device.

Atenção: . Não expor o equipamento a situações de calor excessivo (não apoiar ele sobre superfícies quentes). . Deixar o equipamento ventilado. . Desplugar da tomada o equipamento em situações de raios ou queda de energia constante. . Tome cuidado ao conectar os cabos HDMI, verifique a posição do conector e plugue o cabo devagar. . Mantenha as embalagens e manuais para efeito de garantia e futuras consultas (pelo menos durante o tempo da garantia – 6 meses). . Qualquer dúvida ou problema, entre em contato com a Suporte (suporte@discabos.com.br) ou através do telefone 11.4783-4186 Dicas / Resolução de Problemas: - Sempre verifique se a luz do Power (energia) esta acesa. Se estiver muito fraca ou piscando, troque a fonte de alimentação por outra compatível.. - Algumas instalações possuem tomadas AC com fase diferente e sem um bom aterramento, configurando uma situação de risco para os equipamentos ligados ao sistema, devido ao loop de terra. Nesse caso, por exemplo, as fontes de sinal HDMI (...) estão ligados a tomada AC-1, e o display (...) a tomada AC-2, se a voltagem entre elas não for igual a 0, quando os cabos HDMI (que carregam 5 V DC) são conectados ao sistema, pode acontecer a falha no sinal ou a queima dos equipamentos, cujos danos não são cobertos pela garantia.
