INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Marmitek Connect 540^TM! This HDMI Matrix Switcher connects two screens (HDTV or HD projector) with four HDMI sources (Bluray player, HD set top box, Playstation, Xbox, etc). In contrast to passive HDMI splitters, this is done without any signal or encryption loss and while retaining optimum image quality. It is also ideal for use in combination with an HDMI extender (e.g. to another room). The Connect 540^TM supports Full HD 1080p and 3D (so is suitable for use with your own 3D equipment).
Marmitek products are manufactured with great care and are of the highest quality. Please read this manual carefully and follow the instructions to ensure you make the most of the opportunities offered by this product.

INSTALLATION

- Connect the HDMI screens (HDTV or HD projector) to the Connect 540^TM s 'output' via HDMI cables.
- Connect the power adapter to the Connect 540^TM and plug into the socket.
- Pull the plastic strip from the battery compartment of the remote control to activate the battery and use the remote control.
Tip for installation:
Only use High Speed HDMI® certified cables for the best picture and sound quality. Do not use much force to connect or disconnect the HDMI cables otherwise they may become damaged.
USE
The maximum resolution that can be used is entirely dependent on the HDMI source and the connected HDMI screens. The resolution of the HDMI source must be set so that both HDMI screens support it. Check the instructions for the connected HDMI equipment to verify the maximum supported resolution and how this can be set. Once all equipment is connected and set in the correct way, switch everything off and then on again. Select the correct HDMI input on your HDMI screen and you should then see the same signal on each screen, with the same resolution. The 'Select' button on the front of the Connect 540^TM can be used to manually switch between the two HDMI sources. Both HDMI screens will switch to the same HDMI source.
Use the remote control or the 'SELECT A/B' button at the front of the Connect 540 to manually switch between the four HDMI sources. With the Matrix Function you can select a different HDMI source on both HDMI screens.
Tip for usage:
Ensure that the HDMI source and screens fully support the HDCP protocol in order to prevent any problems.
