4. Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your Yinker 4K HDMI Splitter:

1. Connect your HDMI source device (e.g., laptop, gaming console) to the 'IN' port of the splitter using an HDMI cable.
2. Connect your two HDMI display devices (e.g., monitors, TVs) to the 'OUT 1' and 'OUT 2' ports of the splitter using HDMI cables.
3. Connect the provided USB power cable to the 'DC 5V' port on the splitter and plug the other end into a 5V USB power adapter (not included) or a USB port on your source device/display.
4. Ensure all connections are secure. The indicator lights on the splitter will illuminate upon successful connection.

5. Operating Instructions

The Yinker 4K HDMI Splitter operates automatically once connected and powered. It functions in a mirror/duplicate mode, meaning both connected displays will show the exact same content from the single HDMI input source.

• Power Indicator: The 'power' LED will light up when the device is receiving power.
• Output Indicators: LEDs labeled '1' and '2' correspond to 'OUT 1' and 'OUT 2' ports. They will light up when a display is successfully connected to the respective output.
• Display Mode: This splitter supports mirroring (A-AA mode) where the source content is duplicated on both output screens. It does not support extended display (MST) or acting as a 2-in-1-out switch.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, please refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

1. No Display or Flickering Screen:
   • Ensure the USB power cable is securely connected to a 5V power source.
   • Verify that all HDMI cables are firmly connected to both the splitter and the devices.

   • Try using different HDMI cables, especially if experiencing flickering, as cable quality can affect signal integrity.
2. No Audio:
   • If the source is a laptop, check your laptop's audio output settings and ensure the correct Audio Output Device is selected.
   • For other video devices, ensure the audio format is set to PCM mode.
   • Verify that your display devices support audio output via HDMI.
3. Image Quality Issues:
   • Ensure you are using high-quality HDMI 2.0 cables, especially for 4K resolutions and longer distances.
