1.Turn off the devices to be connected together.

2.Connect the HDMI cable between the source (DVD, Satellite Receiver, etc.) and the “HDMI In” port of the Distribution Amplifier.

3.Connect the HDMI cables from the outputs of the distribution amplifier to the inputs of the monitors.

4.Power up the Distribution Amplifier and the Monitor

connected to HDMI output number one on the amplifier. Leave the other monitors off for now.

5.Turn on power to the source device. The monitor connected to output number one should have picture and sound within about 5 seconds.

6.Turn on power to the remaining monitors.

7.Install cable ties through the two holes on either side of the cable if desired to prevent accidental unplugging of the HDMI cables. See picture above.

NOTES: 1. All monitors connected to the distribution amplifier should be capable of the same resolution.

2.Always connect the first monitor to output number one on the Distribution Amplifier first. This is necessary for the Electronic ID to be read properly by the source.

3.For optimum performance, try to use HDMI cables no longer than 5 meters in length.
