Hardware Installation

1.Connect the “HDMI® Output Dongle Cable” attached to the VS123HD, to an HDMI® enabled display device (i.e. television, projector).

2.Connect an HDMI® cable (not included) from each desired input device (up to 3) to the HDMI® Input Ports video source device (i.e. computer, Blu-ray Player) to the Video Input Ports.

NOTE: This device features 3 prioritized HDMI® input ports. If the active HDMI® source is turned off, disconnected, or otherwise lost, the switch will automatically select the next available HDMI® signal as the priority output. As a result it is a good idea to prioritize the devices connected based on frequency of use. The device used the most should be connected to HDMI® Input Port #3, while the device used the most would be connected to HDMI® Input Port #3.

3.Turn on the display device, followed by the video source devices.

Hardware Operation

1.Auto Switch Port Selection

Using the Auto switch feature, you can automatically switch between video sources simply by turning off and on the devices connected to the prioritized ports.

For example: If you typically watch TV through your Cable or Satellite set top box, but sometimes watch movies on your Blu-ray player. You can connect your set top box to Port #3, and your Blu-ray player to Port#2. When the Blu-ray player is turned on to watch a movie the VS123HD will automatically switch to the Blu-ray player. When the movie is over, simply turn off your Blu-ray player and the VS123HD will automatically switch back to your set top box.
