Introduction The XTREME4MX 4x4 HDMI™ Scaler Matrix with video wall function provides the most flexible and cost effective solution in the market. The new XTREME4MX can be used as a conventional matrix swtich, routing up to 4 different HDMI video sources to any monitor independently or be used as video wall processor, splitting a chosen image from 4 sources to 4 displays. On top of that, it can work as "combo" gear, showing any individual input source in full‐screen for any selected display while other displays are working in video wall mode. ... -
Page 4: Hardware Installation
Hardware Installation XTREME4MX as master 1. Connect all sources to HDMI Inputs on the 4x4 HDMI Matrix XTREME4MX. 2. Connect all display to HDMI Outputs on the 4x4 HDMI Matrix XTREME4MX. 3. Connect the +12V 5A DC power supply to the 4x4 HDMI Matrix XTREME4MX Before Installation Put the product in an even and stable location. If the product falls down or drops, it may cause an injury or malfunction. Do not place the product in too high temperature (over 50°C), too low temperature (under 0°C) or high humidity. Use the DC power supply unit with correct specifications. If inappropriate power supply is used then it may cause a fire. Do not twist or pull by force ends of the cable. It can cause malfunction. EDID LEARNING The EDID learning function is only necessary whenever you encounter any display on the HDMI output port that cannot play audio and video properly. Because the HDMI sources and displays may have various level of capability in playing audio and video, the general principle is that the source will output the lowest standards in terms of audio format and video resolutions to be commonly acceptable among all HDMI displays. In this case, a 720p stereo HDMI signal output would be probably the safest choice. Nevertheless, the user can force the matrix to learn the EDID of the lowest capable HDMI display among others to make sure all displays are capable to play the HDMI signals ... -
