Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your HDMI splitter:

1. Power Off Devices: Ensure all HDMI source devices (e.g., computer, game console) and display devices (e.g., TV, monitor) are powered off before making connections.
2. Connect HDMI Input: Connect one end of an HDMI cable (recommended 19+1 28AWG) to the HDMI output of your source device. Connect the other end of this HDMI cable to the "INPUT" port on the ENBUER 1x4 HDMI Splitter.

3. Connect HDMI Outputs: Connect one end of an HDMI cable (recommended 19+1 28AWG) to each of the "OUTPUT 1", "OUTPUT 2", "OUTPUT 3", and "OUTPUT 4" ports on the splitter. Connect the other end of each of these HDMI cables to the HDMI input ports on your respective display devices.
4. Connect Power: Plug the included 5V DC power supply into the "DC 5V" port on the splitter. Then, plug the power adapter into a standard electrical outlet. The power LED indicator on the splitter should illuminate.
5. Power On Devices: Power on your display devices first, then power on your HDMI source device. The splitter will automatically detect the input signal and distribute it to all connected displays.

Important Note on Cable Length:

• For 1080P resolution: HDMI input cables up to 5 meters (16.4 feet), HDMI output cables up to 10 meters (32.8 feet).
• For 4K resolution: HDMI input cables up to 5 meters (16.4 feet), HDMI output cables up to 5 meters (16.4 feet).

Operating Instructions

The ENBUER 1x4 HDMI Splitter operates automatically once connected and powered. It is a plug-and-play device that does not require any software installation or complex configuration.

• Signal Duplication: This splitter is designed to duplicate or mirror the screen from a single HDMI source to four different displays. It does not support extended desktop mode, meaning all connected displays will show the exact same content.
• Resolution and Audio: The splitter will automatically detect the resolution and audio format from the source device and transmit it to all connected displays. Ensure your displays support the resolution and audio format being sent by the source.
• Cascading (Optional): For applications requiring more than four displays, multiple ENBUER 1x4 HDMI Splitters can be cascaded. Connect an output from one splitter to the input of another splitter to expand the number of displays.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your HDMI splitter, please refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

1. No Signal or Flickering Screen:
   • Ensure all HDMI cables are securely connected to both the splitter and your devices.
   • Verify that the power adapter is correctly plugged into the splitter and a working power outlet. Check if the power LED on the splitter is illuminated.
   • Try using different HDMI cables, especially if they are old or of lower quality. Ensure cables meet the recommended specifications (19+1 28AWG) and length limits for your resolution.
   • Test the HDMI source device directly connected to a single display to confirm it is outputting a signal.
   • Reduce the resolution of the source device if you are using long HDMI cables or experiencing signal instability.
   • Power cycle all devices: Disconnect power from the splitter, source, and displays. Reconnect power to displays, then source, then the splitter.
2. Incorrect Resolution or Color Issues:
   • Ensure your display devices support the resolution being output by the source device.
   • Check the display settings on your source device to ensure the output resolution is compatible with your displays and the splitter's capabilities (e.g., 4K@30Hz max).
   • Note that this splitter supports 4K@60Hz only in YCbCr format and does NOT support CEC, HDR, or VRR. Ensure your source is not attempting to output these formats if issues arise.
3. No Audio:
   • Verify that the audio settings on your source device are correctly configured.
   • Ensure your display devices' audio inputs are correctly selected.
   • Check if the HDMI cables are fully inserted and not damaged.
