Using the Video Switch

Once you have connected devices to the video switch, you can proceed to test the

connection to the television or other display. Turn on the display, and select the input

to which you connected the video switch. Consult the documentation for your display

if you are unsure on how to select A/V inputs. Usually, there will be a button on the

display’s remote or front panel labeled INPUT or A/V. If the display has multiple inputs,

you will need to ensure the input you have selected corresponds to the connectors on

the television you used for the switch. A red LED indicator will light on the front panel

of the switch to show which device is active.
Power on all of the devices you connected to the video switch. You should now be

able to use the SELECT button on the video switch to select which device has an active

connection to the display.

Using the Remote Learning Feature

This video switch allows you to select an input using the signal from any remote, using

the remote learning feature. To program an existing remote to work with CPNT410IR:
1. Press and hold the LEARN button on the video switch until the LED indicator for

input 1 begins to flash.

2. Aim your universal remote at the video switch. Press the key on the remote that

corresponds to the key you want to use to select input 1 on the video switch (i.e.

DVD, VCR, SATELLITE etc.) Once the video switch has stored that setting, the LED

indicator for input 2 will flash on the video switch.

3. Repeat this process for inputs 2, 3, and 4. When the process is complete, the video

switch will automatically return to the input you selected before entering Learn

Mode. To abort the programming at any time, press the LEARN button once.

Troubleshooting

If you’re having difficulty using the video switch, try the following solutions based on

the nature of the problem.
None of the devices connected to the video switch are displayed on the screen.
1. Ensure the video switch is plugged in and receiving power. One LED indicator on

the front panel will be lit when the switch is receiving power.

2. Try selecting another input on the display and verify which input the switch is

connected to. Most displays will have their A/V inputs marked with a number, so

ensure the input selected on the screen matches the physical connection between

the switch and the display.

3. Verify cable connections between the video switch and display are snug.
