• Fade To Black Time—Sets the amount of time (in seconds) it takes to fade the image to and
from black. The on-screen display only allows the fade time to be set. To initiate a Fade to

directly passes the HDMI input signals: on the same Twin HDMI Input Card, the Input1 signal is
looped to Output1 and the Input2 signal is looped to Output2. Selecting Main/PIP Loop loops
the Main and PIP video to the outputs, regardless from which card these signals originate. The
Main video signal is looped to Output1 and the PIP video signal is looped to Output2. Selecting
Disable turns off the HDMI outputs completely.
PIP functionality is disabled in 3D mode.

HDCP requirement is met) when HDCP is used by the source. The cascade level of devices must be
no more than seven levels deep. If single wire loop-through is used, then PIP is not supported.
The wiring diagrams are provided to:
