Input Selection with the Front Panel Button
To select an HDMI input, press the ‘SWITCH’ button on the front panel of the HDMI switch. Each press of the
button progresses to the next active HDMI INPUT. Signal from the selected HDMI INPUT is sent to the OUTPUT
port and its corresponding HDMI Input Indicator is illuminated in Blue.
Input Selection with the Remote Control
The Up and Down buttons on the remote control have the same function as the SWITCH button on the front
panel. To select an HDMI input, press the Up or Down button on the remote of the HDMI switch. Pressing the
‘Up’ button will move to the next active HDMI Input. Pressing the ‘Down’ button will move to the previous
active HDMI Input. Signal from the selected HDMI Input is sent to the Output port and its corresponding HDMI
Input Indicator is illuminated in Blue.
There are also direct input selection buttons on the remote control (Buttons 1, 2 and 3). Pressing each button
selects the corresponding HDMI INPUT port, no matter whether the port has active input signal or not.
Automatic Input Selection
When 301BN HDMI Switch is powered on for the first time, it senses input ports automatically and switches
to the input port source automatically in the sequence 1 -> 2 -> 3... It bypasses input ports without signal.
When a new device is turned on, the switch automatically selects that input. For example, if you switch on
your cable TV, the HDMI switch will automatically switch to the cable TV. Turn the currently selected device
off and switch automatically selects the next higher numbered input that has an active signal (1 -> 2 -> 3...)
Note: Some source devices stay in a stand-by mode even when you think they are switched off and always
maintain a connection with the switch. This non-compliant behavior does not allow the HDMI switch to
perform its auto switching. You can test this by looking at the HDMI switch LEDs after switching off your
inputs.
