Product Information
Full details
The Lindy 9 Port HDMI 4K30 Multi-view Switch is designed for professionals who need to display content from multiple HDMI sources on a single screen. Its key benefit is the ability to view up to nine HDMI devices simultaneously in various layouts, ideal for monitoring or broadcasting scenarios. A potential caveat is its maximum refresh rate of 30Hz at 4K resolution, which may not be suitable for high-motion content requiring higher frame rates. This switch supports resolutions up to 4K UHD (3840x2160@30Hz), offers seamless switching, independent audio control, and output resolution scaling, all manageable via push button, IR remote, or RS-232 for PC integration.

Troubleshooting
No video output on the display
Verify all HDMI cables are securely connected at both ends. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the switch. Check that the display device is powered on and set to the correct input. Confirm that the source device is outputting a supported resolution and refresh rate.
Intermittent signal loss or flickering
Try using shorter, certified HDMI cables. Check for any physical damage to the cables or ports. Ensure the switch is not overheating by verifying ventilation. Test with a different HDMI source device to rule out an issue with the source.
Audio is not working or out of sync
Ensure independent audio switching is configured correctly via the control method (button, remote, or RS-232). Verify that the audio settings on the source device are correctly configured. Test with a different HDMI source to isolate the problem.
Remote control is not functioning
Check if the IR receiver on the switch has a clear line of sight. Ensure the remote control's battery is properly inserted and functional. Try pressing the physical buttons on the switch to confirm it is operational.
RS-232 control is not responding
Confirm the RS-232 cable is correctly wired and securely connected to both the switch and the PC. Verify that the correct serial port and communication settings (baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits) are used in the control software.
