FAST SWITCHING TECHNOLOGY

What is Fast Switching Technology?

Fast Switching Technology (FST) is a Gefen software implementation for HDMI products. FST was created to improve the lengthy HDMI authentication process, based on the HDMI and HDCP specifications.

FST provides quicker audio/video source switching and greatly improves the overall audio/ video system behavior and performance when more than one HDTV display is used in the system setup.

FST allows connecting / disconnecting or turning ON / OFF of HDTV displays without having these activities affect other Hi-Def sources routed to any other HDTV display in the same system.

Using Fast Mode

Use fast switching mode to improve performance when connecting / disconnecting Hi-Def sources, and powering ON / OFF HDTV displays.

1.Disconnect the power supply from the 1:8 Splitter for HDMI 4K x 2K.

2.Set the FST switch to the Fast position.

If the FST switch is moved from the Slow position to the Fast position while the splitter is powered, then power-cycle the splitter by disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply in order for the change to take effect.
