How to use

Connect HDMI cables from your source devices to the switch input ports and connect the switch output to your display using an HDMI cable. Use the device's front panel button or the appropriate physical selector to switch between connected sources; when used in bi-directional mode, connect the primary device and the secondary display accordingly and verify compatibility. Ensure all devices are powered on and set to the correct HDMI input on the display. No software installation is required.

Recommendations

For best results, use high-quality HDMI cables rated for 4K to maintain signal integrity. If bi-directional operation (sending one source to two displays) does not work with certain devices, check source device output settings and display compatibility; some devices may restrict simultaneous outputs. Place the switch in a well-ventilated area and avoid excessive bending of HDMI cables to reduce connection issues.
