Frequently Asked Questions - STVS421HDPIP StarTech.com

How do I set up the STVS421HDPIP?

Connect up to four HDMI source devices to the HDMI input ports. Connect one HDMI display to the output port. Plug in the power adapter. Optionally connect a network cable for remote control. Refer to the Hardware Installation section in the manual.

How do I switch between video sources?

Press the Input Selection buttons on the front panel or use the IR remote control. Each button corresponds to an HDMI input (1-4). The selected input will be displayed on the output.

How do I use Picture-in-Picture (PIP)?

Select your primary video input using the Output select button. Then press one of the Picture-in-Picture Selection Buttons (A-D) corresponding to the secondary input (A=Input1, B=Input2, etc.). The secondary video will appear as an inset.

How can I adjust the output resolution?

Access the OSD menu by pressing the Menu button. Navigate to I/O Setup > Output Resolution and select from available resolutions like 1080p60, 720p60, NATIVE, etc. Confirm with OK.

How do I control the switch via RS-232?

Connect a serial cable to the DB9 Service Port. Use a terminal program (baud rate 115200, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit). Send commands like POW 1 (power on) or VICH 1 2 (select input 2 for channel 1). Commands are case-sensitive and must end with carriage return.

What is the default IP address for web control?

The default IP address is 192.168.5.155 if DHCP is not available. To view the current IP, go to OSD menu Ethernet > IP. For DHCP, connect to a network with a DHCP server to obtain an IP automatically.

How do I reset to factory defaults?

Send the DEFAULT command via RS-232 or Telnet. Alternatively, use the OSD menu: navigate to Window Reset or use the Value Reset option in Image Adjust to restore default picture settings.

How do I use the Chroma Key feature?

Go to OSD menu Chromakey Setup or send CHRSW 1 via RS-232. Set the RGB ranges for the color to be keyed. Channel 1 is the background and Channel 2 is the top image. The chroma key replaces the specified color with the second source.

How do I mirror or rotate the image?

In the OSD menu under Window Convert for each channel, you can enable Mirror (on/off), Rotation (R90, L90, 180, off), or Fade In/Out transition effects. Alternatively, use RS-232 commands MIRROR 1 or ROTATE 2.

What should I do if there is no video output?

Check that all HDMI cables are securely connected. Ensure the display is powered on and set to the correct input. Verify the output resolution is supported by your display. If using EDID, try setting resolution to NATIVE. Also confirm the switch is powered (blue LED).
