The unit may switch inputs when another brand IR remote control is used or the RMT-2IR may cause other brand IR controlled devices to behave unexpectedly.

The source can then cater its output to send only resolutions and features that are compatible with the attached device/display.
RS-232 SERIAL COMMUNICATION What features are available via the RS-232 serial communications port? The 2x2 Switcher for HDMI can accept commands through the RS-232 serial communications port located on the rear panel. The current RS-232 control features are: • Switching/routing of inputs to outputs without the RMT-2IR remote control. •...
