2. Connect HDMI End: Gently insert the HDMI connector of the cable into the HDMI port of your source or display device. Ensure it is fully seated.
3. Connect DVI-D End: Gently insert the DVI-D Dual Link connector of the cable into the DVI-D port of your display or source device. Tighten the screws on the DVI-D connector if available, to secure the connection.
4. Power On Devices: Turn on both your source device and your display device.
5. Select Input: On your display device, select the correct input source (e.g., HDMI 1, DVI) using your display's remote control or on-screen menu.

Once connected, the cable will transmit the digital video signal between the devices.

4. Operation

The V7 HDMI DVI Cable operates passively by transmitting digital video signals. No additional software or drivers are required. Once properly connected and the correct input is selected on your display, the video signal should appear automatically.

For optimal performance, ensure both connected devices are compatible with the HDMI and DVI-D Dual Link standards.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your V7 HDMI DVI Cable, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to clean the cable and connectors. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: When not in use, store the cable in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid tightly coiling or kinking the cable, as this can damage the internal wires.
• Handling: Always grasp the connector ends when plugging or unplugging the cable. Avoid pulling on the cable itself, as this can strain the connections and lead to damage.
• Protection: Keep the cable away from sharp objects, heavy furniture, and areas where it might be stepped on or tripped over.

If you experience issues with your V7 HDMI DVI Cable, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Signal/Black Screen:
  • Ensure both ends of the cable are securely connected to their respective ports.
  • Verify that both the source device and the display device are powered on.
  • Check that the correct input source is selected on your display (e.g., HDMI 1, DVI).
  • Try connecting the cable to different ports on your devices, if available.
  • Test the cable with another compatible source or display device to rule out device-specific issues.
• Flickering/Intermittent Signal:
  • Ensure connections are firm and not loose.
  • Check for any physical damage to the cable or connectors.
  • Reduce the distance between devices if possible, or ensure the cable length is appropriate for your setup.
• Poor Picture Quality:
  • Verify that the resolution settings on your source device are compatible with your display.
