Troubleshooting

No video or KVM signal displayed.

Verify all HDMI and USB connections are secure. Ensure the fibre optic cable is properly connected to both units and is not damaged. Check that both the Transmitter and Receiver units are powered on. Try a different HDMI cable or USB device.

Video resolution is incorrect or flickering.

Confirm the source device and display both support the desired resolution (3840x2160@60Hz). Check the EDID settings and ensure compatibility. Test with a lower resolution to rule out cable or signal issues.

USB keyboard/mouse is not working at the receiver.

Ensure the USB devices are connected to the correct HID ports on the receiver. Test the USB devices directly connected to the source PC to confirm they are functional. Try a different USB port on the receiver.

Audio is not transmitted.

Verify that the source device is outputting audio via HDMI and that the display is capable of receiving the audio format. Check HDMI cable quality and ensure it supports audio transmission.

IR or RS-232 control is not functioning.

Ensure the IR emitters/receivers or RS-232 cables are correctly connected to the respective ports on both the transmitter and receiver. Confirm that the controlling devices are configured correctly for pass-through.
