SYSTEM SETUP
System setup is available through front panel controls. The menus are displayed via the Quad View HDMI output. The hand-held IR remote can be used to access this same menu system and select video inputs. Setup and Control is also available via Web Browser (Microsoft Edge has best compatibility).
Hint: The front panel OSD (on-screen display) method is a great place to start with initial setup and system check as it does not require configuring an Ethernet connection first.
FRONT PANEL OPERATION
Supply power to the unit using the power adapter included with the product. It will take approximately 45 seconds for the unit to be fully operational. Typically, the four input select buttons will light a pale Green color. This indicates they are using the SDI sources. To use an HDMI source for either Input 1 or Input 2, select that button then press and hold it for about 3 seconds. It will change to an amber color indicating that the HDMI source is active. Press and hold again to return to the SDI input.
CONNECT A MONITOR TO QUAD VIEW HDMI OUTPUT
There will be a four quadrant pattern visible on the monitor. Press the front panel OSD button. A menu with four main options will appear. Use the Arrow buttons (1 & 2) to move up and down in the list. Press the Enter button (button 3)
to open the item. Continue to use arrow buttons and the Enter button to select and change items as desired. An item is selected when the text appears yellow. Pressing the Enter key a second time will unselect the item (text returns to white). Once an item has been changed, pressing the Enter button (button 4) will return the text color back to white and the change will take effect. Press the Exit button again to close the Menu.

Method 2: Change IP Mode to DHCP mode. Use this address temporarily to login in via a Web Browser and follow the steps in the section below on Web Browser Operation to set a desired IP address. Ethernet addressing can be found on the bottom of the UTILITES page.
Method 3: Scroll down to Default, press Enter, select YES, press Enter again. The unit will restart with a new Static IP address of 192.168.68.110. Connect a computer directly to the switcher and configure the computer’s Ethernet port to a similar address such as: 192.168.68.115. Use a browser to access the switcher via the 192.168.68.110 address. Follow the steps in the section below on Web Browser Operation. Ethernet addressing can be found on the bottom of the UTILITES page.
NOTE: After the IP address is changed, it will be necessary to use the new address to log back in via the browser.
