Using pass-through mode with DDC routed to the remote display

NThis is the factory default setting.

N Although DDC can be routed to the remote display, there may be instances when the signals become corrupted or weak. In those cases, the source device may be unable to

3. Connect the display device to the receiver output and, if required, the local monitor to the transmitter output.

4. Connect the transmitter to the receiver with the three twisted pair cables.

Transmitter port 1 connects to receiver port 1.

Transmitter port 2 connects to receiver port 2.

Transmitter port 3 connects to receiver port 3. 5. Power on the remote display.

6. Boot up the source device. The source boots with the resolution and refresh rate of the remote display.

NBecause the remote display is the source of EDID, it must be powered on before the source device is booted.

7. Power on the local monitor, if required.

NIf used, the local monitor must be capable of handling a resolution equal to or greater than that of the remote display.
