Operation
HDMI Input Indicators
The 501BN Switch has five HDMI Input indicator lights on its front panel. When the switch senses
audio/video transmission on one of its HDMI Input ports, the corresponding HDMI Input Indicator is
illuminated in Red color. When an HDMI Input is selected for use, the corresponding HDMI Input Indicator
is illuminated in Blue. The HDMI Input Indicator is not lit when there is no input signal or no HDMI cable is
connected.
Input Selection with the Front Panel Button
To select an HDMI input, press the ‘SWITCH’ button on the front panel of the HDMI switch. Each press of
the button progresses to the next active HDMI INPUT. Signal from the selected HDMI INPUT is sent to the
OUTPUT port and its corresponding HDMI Input Indicator is illuminated in Blue.
Input Selection with the Remote Control
The Up and Down buttons on the remote control have the same function as the SWITCH button on the
front panel. To select an HDMI input, press the Up or Down button on the remote of the HDMI switch.
Pressing the ‘Up’ button will move to the next active HDMI Input. Pressing the ‘Down’ button will move to
the previous active HDMI Input. Signal from the selected HDMI Input is sent to the Output port and its
corresponding HDMI Input Indicator is illuminated in Blue.
There are also direct input selection buttons on the remote control (Buttons 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5). Pressing each
button selects the corresponding HDMI INPUT port, no matter whether the port has active input signal or
not.
Automatic Input Selection
When the 501BN HDMI Switch is powered on, it senses the input ports automatically, and switches to the
input port source automatically with priority input port 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5. It bypasses the input ports without
signal. During use, when there is a new active input, the 501BN HDMI Switch will sense this new active
input with higher priority than the currently selected port.
For example, in the “Typical Setup” diagram on page 4, if you turn on the Gaming Console, the HDMI
Switch will automatically select HDMI Input 1. To watch cable TV, simply turn off the Gaming Console and
turn on the cable box. To play the DVD Player, simply turn on DVD Player and turn off other devices.
Note: Some cable box models have an active HDMI output even when they are turned off. In this case
please connect the cable box to HDMI INPUT 5 so it has the lowest priority.
