Principles of Operation

This chapter describes the principles of operation of the SID-X2N and comprises:

Active input selection (see

Section

6.1

)

Audio signal control (see

Section

6.2

)

The SID-X2N selects video and audio inputs based on the rules described below.

6.1

Active Input Selection

The video mode selection is set by the DIP-switches (see

Section

8.1

) to either of

the following modes:

Manual

Last connected

In manual mode the input is selected using the front panel buttons and occurs

whether or not there is a live signal present on the input.

In last connected mode the SID-X2N selects the input based on which input was

connected last. If the signal on this input is subsequently lost for any reason, the

input with a live signal with the highest priority is selected automatically. The

priority from highest to lowest is:

HDMI

DisplayPort

DVI

PC

Note: In last connected mode, manually selecting an input using the front panel

Input Select button overrides the last-connected automatic selection.

When the input signal sync is lost (but the cable is not removed) there is a delay of

six seconds before another input is automatically selected. When an input cable is

removed, the delay before automatic switching takes place is configurable, (see

Section

8.1

).
