The package shall be included the following items:
Note: DVl-D cable shall be used when using DVI cable at client end.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, according to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used by following the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Firstly ensure the bracket are available before installation.
When the splicing unit is used lengthways, rotate it clockwise to move the left upwards to ensure normal ventilation and prolong service life of the splicing unit. Poor ventilation may shorten its service life.
•The ceiling or wall shall be firm enough to support the displays and installation parts.
•Do not install the product at places susceptible to collision.
•Do not install the product at places where it is likely to suffer from strong vibration or dust.
•Do not install the product at places where the main power supply enters the building.
•Do not install the product at places where it is likely to interfere with normal activity.
•If the product is installed inside the wall, please reserve 1Ocm space around the splicing unit to ensure normal ventilation.
•Ensure the splicing unit is in a well-ventilated or air-conditioned place for normal heat dissipation.
•Regularly check whether there are loose screws, gaps, deformation or other problems at the mount or not.
•Regularly check whether there is any damage or quality deterioration, etc. at the installation location or not.
Do not incline the splicing unit( see the below figure). The installation parts may be connected only when the splicing unit face down. A layer of protective film is placed between the table and splicing unit to prevent from damaging the surface of screen.
When the product is installed in a closed or embedded area, sufficient space shall be reserved between the splicing unit and closed wall to ensure normal heat dissipation as shown in the below figure.
If the desktop mount is installed, the rope or chain which can support the splicing unit shall be used to tie the splicing unit to the wall to prevent it from falling. Use the fixation clamp and screws provided to fasten the rope or chain to the splicing unit.
(Please use the fixation clamp and screws to fasten the rope or chain to the splicing unit in engineering installation)

Receive the signal from the looping input and output it to the next-level unit from the looping output.
As a specialty splicing unit, the product is featured with high brightness, high contrast, huge viewing angle (178° horizontally and vertically) and quick response. It is equipped with the built-in full-featured RS232 control command to facilitate an easy construction of the remote control system. The product supports the following input signals and signals transmission functions.

The above table describes Model AV1 as an example, but in actual operation,AV2, AV3 and AV4 under AV input channel can also transmit AV signals.
Taking 2><2 as an example, VGA matrix selects 4-in and 4-out matrix and the video matrix selects 4-in and 4-out matrix (or hybrid matrix with VGA 4-in and 4-out matrix plus video 4-in and 4-out matrix); VGA signals output from each channel of the matrix connects to VGA input of the splicing unit, and video signals output from each channel connects to video input of the splicing unit; to use DVI or HDMI signals, add DVI or HDMI matrix and
connect as shown in the above figure.
Make use of the signal forwarding function and the software provided with the product to realize the splicing of displays easily. We recommend several connections of signal cables (taking 3x3 as the example) for quick installation of the splicing unit as follows.
The splicing unit used at Level 1 can be other displays, but not necessarily No. 1. The number of splicing units needs to be set manually in OSD menu. The principles are shown as follows:
•The number begins with 1.
•The number increases progressively from left to right.
•The number increases progressively from top to bottom.
The splicing units are connected according to the following two principles:
•Each splicing unit shall be connected.
•All used signal cables shall be as short as possible.
Seam properties are set by the software automatically. Each splicing unit has its own frames, so the display area is not 100% in splicing. To prevent rupture of the image, the frames of splicing unit can also be deemed as valid display areas. Therefore, a continuation of the image is not damaged by sacrificing partial image contents. As shown below the top figure displays the effect when the seamless video display function is disabled and the bottom figure displays the effect when the seamless video display function is enabled.

•Insert the power cord into the power outlet.
•Press the power key on the remote control or use the power-on key in the software.
Power off the splicing unit
•Press the power key on the remote control or use the power-off key in the software, and then the system will enter a standby state.
