EMPHASIS FUNCTION

Press the EMPHASIS button on the unit or the remote controller to turn on the emphasis function. The EMPHASIS indicator on the unit lights up in yellow. Press the EMPHASIS button again to turn off the function.
When the emphasis function is on, if a signal that was input to the unit is then output again, the signal is corrected before being output. This is useful when noise is generated in the output video or audio. The effectiveness of this function depends on the connected devices and the length and type of cables that are used. In particular, we recommend trying this function when the output cable from the unit is 5 meters or longer. The effectiveness of this function may also depend on your system. Test out your system when the function is on and the function is off, and compare the results.
The emphasis function is off when the unit is shipped.
Notes:
- Sometimes, turning the emphasis function on or off makes no difference. (For example, when the accuracy of the input signal is good.)
- If using this function has no significant effect, replace the cable with a shorter one.
