4. ຕັ້ງຄ່າ

Follow these steps to set up your FeinTech VMS04201 HDMI 4x2 Matrix Switch:

  1. ອຸປະກອນປິດເຄື່ອງ: Ensure all HDMI source devices, display devices, and audio systems are powered off before making any connections.
  2. ເຊື່ອມຕໍ່ແຫຼ່ງ HDMI: Connect your HDMI source devices (e.g., Blu-ray player, game console, streaming box) to the HDMI IN 1-4 ports on the rear panel of the matrix switch using high-quality HDMI cables. For CEC functionality, connect the desired source to HDMI IN 1.
  3. ເຊື່ອມຕໍ່ຈໍສະແດງຜົນ HDMI: Connect your HDMI display devices (e.g., TV, projector) to the HDMI OUT A and HDMI OUT B ports on the rear panel using high-quality HDMI cables.
  4. Connect Audio System (Optional):
    • For digital audio, connect your audio receiver or soundbar to the SPDIF (Optical) output.
    • For analog stereo audio, connect your audio system to the 3.5mm analog audio output.
  5. Set EDID Mode: Before powering on, set the EDID switch on the rear panel.
    • ສຳເນົາ: Connect your best display (e.g., 4K HDR TV) to HDMI OUT A. Set the EDID switch to COPY. This mode copies the EDID from Output A to ensure optimal signal negotiation for all sources. Power on the display, then the matrix switch, then the HDMI source.
    • ພຕພ: Standard mode, supports 4K 60Hz HDR Dolby Digital 5.1.

5. ຄໍາແນະນໍາການດໍາເນີນງານ

5.1 Switching Inputs and Outputs

You can switch HDMI sources for each output independently using either the front panel buttons or the remote control.

  • ແຜງໜ້າ: Press the corresponding "1", "2", "3", "4", or "AUTO" button under "OUT A" or "OUT B" to select the desired input for that output.
  • ການຄວບຄຸມໄລຍະໄກ: Use the "Output A" or "Output B" sections on the remote. Press "1", "2", "3", "4" to select a specific input, or "AUTO" for automatic input detection.

5.2 Scaler Function (4K to 1080p)

The scaler function allows you to display 4K content on a Full HD (1080p) display while simultaneously sending 4K to another 4K display. This is useful in mixed display environments.

  • ການເປີດໃຊ້ງານ: Press the "4K->1080p" button on the front panel or the remote control. The scaler will apply to the output currently selected for downscaling.
  • ໝາຍເຫດ: The scaler converts the resolution from 2160p to 1080p. Other image and sound information remains unchanged.

5.3 ການສະກັດສຽງ

The matrix switch can extract audio from the HDMI signal and output it via SPDIF (optical) or 3.5mm analog stereo.

  • ການເລືອກແຫຼ່ງສຽງ: Use the "AUDIO A/B" button on the front panel or the remote to select whether the extracted audio originates from HDMI OUT A or HDMI OUT B.
  • ຜົນອອກ SPDIF: Provides digital stereo or 5.1 surround sound (Dolby Digital, DTS). Note that HD audio formats like DD+, Dolby TrueHD (Dolby Atmos), or DTS-HD are generally only transmitted via HDMI, not SPDIF.
  • 3.5mm Analog Output: Provides analog stereo sound. For this output to function, the source must provide a stereo signal. Digital surround sound cannot be output here.

5.4 Audio Return Channel (ARC)

ARC allows the audio from your TV's internal tuner or smart TV apps to be sent back to your audio system via the SPDIF output of the matrix switch.

  • ການເປີດໃຊ້ງານ: Press the "ARC" button on the front panel or the remote control.
  • ໝາຍເຫດ: When ARC is active, the analog audio output (3.5mm) will be muted. You can select whether the ARC audio comes from Display A or Display B. Ensure ARC is enabled on your TV.

5.5 HDMI CEC

The matrix switch supports HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) on HDMI IN 1. This allows you to control certain functions of your source device (e.g., Fire TV Stick 4K, Apple TV 4K) using your TV remote.

  • ການເຊື່ອມຕໍ່: Connect the CEC-enabled source device to HDMI IN 1.
  • ແຊກແຊງ: If you have two TVs connected and experience CEC interference, disable CEC on one of the TVs. CEC is typically designed for a single TV setup.

6. ການພິຈາລະນາທີ່ສຳຄັນ

  • HDMI Cable Lengths: For 4K resolutions, recommended HDMI cable lengths are:
    • Inputs: Less than 5 meters (16.4 ft)
    • Outputs: Less than 3 meters (9.8 ft)
    Longer lengths may be possible with special fiber optic HDMI cables. Conventional HDMI cables longer than 5m may cause data loss with Ultra HD signals.
  • Audio Volume Control: The digital audio output via SPDIF does not carry volume information. Adjust the volume directly on your audio system, not on the TV or source player.
  • Soundbar Connections:
    • A soundbar with both HDMI input and output can be connected between the matrix switch and the TV.
    • A soundbar with only one HDMI port cannot receive audio via HDMI from the switch; use the SPDIF output instead.
  • ເກມ: This is an HDMI 2.0 switch designed for home cinema applications. HDMI 2.1 gaming features such as Freesync, G-Sync, VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) are not supported. Maximum supported resolutions for gaming are 2160p 60Hz or 1440p 120Hz.
  • ການຫຼິ້ນ 3D: For 3D content, ensure your 3D-capable display is connected to HDMI OUT A and the EDID switch is set to "COPY". This ensures the 3D-ready EDID data is passed to the source device.

    • If using ARC, ensure it is enabled on both the matrix switch and your TV. Remember that analog audio is muted when ARC is active.
    • Confirm the source device is outputting an audio format compatible with the selected audio output (e.g., stereo for 3.5mm, Dolby Digital/DTS for SPDIF).
    • Adjust volume directly on your audio system.
  • ບັນຫາ CEC:
    • Ensure the CEC-enabled source is connected to HDMI IN 1.
    • If using two displays, disable CEC on one of them to prevent conflicts.
    • Check CEC settings on your TV and source device.
  • 3D Playback Not Working:
    • Connect the 3D-capable display to HDMI OUT A.
