Using the Key Digital KD - X2X1WVTX is easy. First, install the transmitter in a standard US dual - gang box. Connect your HDMI and VGA sources to the appropriate inputs on the unit. Use the push - button to select the source you want to display. For the initial setup, you can control the unit via USB. Once connected to a compatible receiver or presentation switch unit, it will start transmitting signals. The IR sensor on the wall - plate can collect signals from a remote without any external wiring, and you can also use bi - directional RS - 232 control. When it comes to power, the wall - plate unit gets power from the Rx/Presentation Switch unit. Here are some important things to note. Make sure your sources are compatible with the supported resolutions and bandwidths. When using VGA, the video scaling will ensure proper display, but be aware of the correct aspect ratio and resolution settings. Keep in mind that the signal extension distances are up to 40m for 4K/UHD (18G) and 70m for 1080p, so plan your cable lengths accordingly. For maintenance, keep the unit clean. Wipe the brushed aluminum face gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity. If you have any issues with signal quality or HDCP authentication, check the connections and ensure that all devices are HDCP 2.2 compliant.
