Introduction Thanks for purchasing the Model 1398D 4K Ultra HD distribution amplifier from Audio Authority . The 1398D is designed to split a 4K HDMI signal from ® ® one source to a wide spectrum of HDMI display brands, as in a retail demo environment.
● Source Switching - If the source device will be switched often during operation, as in the case of an HDMI switch connected at the head end of the distribution system, use the SYS-RST switch. This setting prevents the 1398D from interrupting video and audio transmission to re-learn EDID settings each time the source is switched, or a TV is hot-plugged to the distribution system.
● Since all of the displays will be receiving the same video signal resolution and format from the source, make sure all the displays connected to the 1398D can accept 2160p resolutions. If a display is limited to 1080p, for example, either it will not display any image, or the source will reduce its output to all displays to 1080p, depending on the 1398D settings.
