4. 설정
Follow these steps to set up your FeinTech VMS04201 HDMI 4x2 Matrix Switch:
- 전원 끄기 장치: Ensure all HDMI source devices, display devices, and audio systems are powered off before making any connections.
- HDMI 소스 연결: Connect your HDMI source devices (e.g., Blu-ray player, game console, streaming box) to the HDMI IN 1-4 ports on the rear panel of the matrix switch using high-quality HDMI cables. For CEC functionality, connect the desired source to HDMI IN 1.
- HDMI 디스플레이 연결: Connect your HDMI display devices (e.g., TV, projector) to the HDMI OUT A and HDMI OUT B ports on the rear panel using high-quality HDMI cables.
- 오디오 시스템 연결(선택 사항):
- For digital audio, connect your audio receiver or soundbar to the SPDIF (Optical) output.
- For analog stereo audio, connect your audio system to the 3.5mm analog audio output.
- Set EDID Mode: Before powering on, set the EDID switch on the rear panel.
- 복사: Connect your best display (e.g., 4K HDR TV) to HDMI OUT A. Set the EDID switch to COPY. This mode copies the EDID from Output A to ensure optimal signal negotiation for all sources. Power on the display, then the matrix switch, then the HDMI source.

- 자동 : Automatic negotiation for compatibility across various connected devices. This is a compromise for mixed device environments.
- 전원 연결: Connect the included power adapter to the DC 5V input on the rear panel, then plug the adapter into a power outlet. The power indicator on the front panel will illuminate.
- 전원 켜기 장치: Power on your display devices, then your HDMI source devices.
5. 사용 설명서
5.1 Switching Inputs and Outputs
You can switch HDMI sources for each output independently using either the front panel buttons or the remote control.
- 전면 패널: Press the corresponding "1", "2", "3", "4", or "AUTO" button under "OUT A" or "OUT B" to select the desired input for that output.
- 원격 제어: Use the "Output A" or "Output B" sections on the remote. Press "1", "2", "3", "4" to select a specific input, or "AUTO" for automatic input detection.
5.2 Scaler Function (4K to 1080p)
The scaler function allows you to display 4K content on a Full HD (1080p) display while simultaneously sending 4K to another 4K display. This is useful in mixed display environments.
- 활성화: Press the "4K->1080p" button on the front panel or the remote control. The scaler will apply to the output currently selected for downscaling.
- 메모: The scaler converts the resolution from 2160p to 1080p. Other image and sound information remains unchanged.
5.3 오디오 추출
The matrix switch can extract audio from the HDMI signal and output it via SPDIF (optical) or 3.5mm analog stereo.
- 오디오 소스 선택: Use the "AUDIO A/B" button on the front panel or the remote to select whether the extracted audio originates from HDMI OUT A or HDMI OUT B.
- SPDIF 출력: Provides digital stereo or 5.1 surround sound (Dolby Digital, DTS). Note that HD audio formats like DD+, Dolby TrueHD (Dolby Atmos), or DTS-HD are generally only transmitted via HDMI, not SPDIF.
- 3.5mm Analog Output: Provides analog stereo sound. For this output to function, the source must provide a stereo signal. Digital surround sound cannot be output here.
5.4 Audio Return Channel (ARC)
ARC allows the audio from your TV's internal tuner or smart TV apps to be sent back to your audio system via the SPDIF output of the matrix switch.
- 활성화: Press the "ARC" button on the front panel or the remote control.
- 메모: When ARC is active, the analog audio output (3.5mm) will be muted. You can select whether the ARC audio comes from Display A or Display B. Ensure ARC is enabled on your TV.
5.5 HDMI CEC
The matrix switch supports HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) on HDMI IN 1. This allows you to control certain functions of your source device (e.g., Fire TV Stick 4K, Apple TV 4K) using your TV remote.
- 연결: Connect the CEC-enabled source device to HDMI IN 1.
- 간섭: If you have two TVs connected and experience CEC interference, disable CEC on one of the TVs. CEC is typically designed for a single TV setup.
6. 중요 고려 사항
- HDMI Cable Lengths: For 4K resolutions, recommended HDMI cable lengths are:
- Inputs: Less than 5 meters (16.4 ft)
- Outputs: Less than 3 meters (9.8 ft)
- Audio Volume Control: The digital audio output via SPDIF does not carry volume information. Adjust the volume directly on your audio system, not on the TV or source player.
- Soundbar Connections:
- A soundbar with both HDMI input and output can be connected between the matrix switch and the TV.
- A soundbar with only one HDMI port cannot receive audio via HDMI from the switch; use the SPDIF output instead.
- 노름: This is an HDMI 2.0 switch designed for home cinema applications. HDMI 2.1 gaming features such as Freesync, G-Sync, VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) are not supported. Maximum supported resolutions for gaming are 2160p 60Hz or 1440p 120Hz.
- 3D 재생: For 3D content, ensure your 3D-capable display is connected to HDMI OUT A and the EDID switch is set to "COPY". This ensures the 3D-ready EDID data is passed to the source device.
