Power/Status LED
The Linker logo will glow Green when in use. When the Linker first receives an HDMI signal the logo will
quickly turn on, then off, and then on permanently to indicate that the HDCP handshake has been
completed.
The status of the green logo may be used for troubleshooting:
[Logo OFF]: Insufficient power or no incoming signals. Use the Linker power supply, make sure
the source and sink devices are correctly connected and ON.
[Logo BLINKING] (ON for split second, OFF for 5 seconds): The Linker is receiving power and is
ready to accept an HDMI signal.
[Logo ON]: The Linker is powered and receiving and decoding a HDMI signal.

Scaling Mode Selection
Scaling Mode slide switch has 3 positions.
The switch should be set to the middle position to allow control via USB.
[Upscaling Mode]: In this mode an incoming FHD 1080p signal will be upscaled to DCI/UHD 4K/2160p
up to 600MHz if the connected display is capable of receiving such signal.
[Scaling Justified + GU]: When coupled with EDID in Automix mode, the Linker unit makes sure that the
conversion will always output a working signal. It will ensure that if a display does not support 4K then
an incoming FHD 1080p signal won’t be upscaled and an incoming UHD 4K signal will be downscaled.
Such automation is cancelled when unit is running with EDID in Custom mode.
[Downscaling Mode]: In this mode a 4K/2160p DCI/UHD signal will always be downscaled to FHD 1080p.
Note on HDCP:
Both inputs accept HDCP1.4/2.2. Output can work with HDCP1.4/2.2 devices.
