Introduction
The HDMV Switch allows you to view up to four different High Definition video
sources simultaneously on one display device. It also supports keyboard and mouse
functionality, allowing you to access all four displays with one set of interface controls.
Connections to video sources are managed via HD connectors. Advanced viewing
options include quad-mode, full-screen mode, and PIP (picture in picture)
mode. Use this device to simplify management of multiple sources by accessing and
controlling them all through a single display and set of controls.

Using the On Screen Display
The OSD can be accessed by using either the “MENU” button on the front control panel or
through hotkey commands “hotkey + hotkey + O”, for example if your hotkey is left ctrl (by de-
fault) press “ctrl + ctrl+ O” and the OSD will come up. The OSD allows you to change modes,
change the hotkey button, move the OSD position, toggle the hotplugs, and restore the HDMV to
factory defaults.
To change modes with the OSD simply navigate with the attached keyboard and press the
up and down arrow keys, press the right key to activate the submenu and the left to deacti-
vate it. To select a new mode scroll down to the input and press the right arrow key. Use the
up and down arrow keys again to select Full, Quad, or PiP and press enter to change the
mode.
The hotkey can be changed by using the up and down arrow in the OSD and pressing right ar-
row on “HK:” Next, a submenu will come up with the option to change the hotkey to ctrl, shift,
and alt.

To save the settings navigate to the “Save” text and press the Enter key.
To restore the factory settings click scroll down to “Factory Reset” and press enter. The
HDMV will perform a power reset on itself.
The position of the OSD can be moved around. Select the “OSD Position” text and press en-
ter. Next use the up, down, left, and right arrows from the keyboard to move the position of
the OSD. Likewise the 1, 2, 3, 4 buttons on the front control panel will move the OSD as well
where 1 is down, 2 is up, 3 is left, and 4 is right.

RS-232 Operation and Console Commands
The HDMV may also be controlled via RS-232 commands; this feature requires an RS-232 card
installed on your computer or a USB to RS-232 adapter. First connect the RS232 cable be-
tween your PC and the HDMV.
Using Hotkey commands
The default factory hotkey is the left “ctrl” key. To use a hotkey command simply hit ctrl twice, and
then the appropriate command.
Command Function Example
hotkey + hotkey + q Change to quad mode Ctrl + ctrl + q
(quad mode)
Hotkey + hotkey + F + # Change to full mode of channel Ctrl + ctrl + f + 1
(full mode with channel 1)
Hotkey + hotkey + P + # Change to picture in picture mode for that
channel (Note, user control will default to
the last channel selected.)
Ctrl + ctrl + p + 3
(picture in picture mode with channel 3
as the main)
Hotkey + hotkey + U + # Change the user control Ctrl + ctrl + u + 4
(user control changes to channel 4)
Hotkey + hotkey + O Bring up the OSD
Next connect to the device using HyperTerminal or a similar serial data application and an
DB9 for RS-232 connection. The settings for the connection are as follows:
Any serial data application similar to HyperTerminal will be able to connect to the HDMV provided
the Bits per second are 115200, the data bits are set to 8, the Parity is “None,” the stop bits are
“1,” and there is no flow control. HyperTerminal comes standard on windows XP and can be en-

Q and A
Q: What do I need to use the RS-232 console?
A: A standard RS-232 cable, one end is male and the other end is female. Your computer must
have an RS-232 card installed.
Q: How do I update the firmware?
A: If new firmware is available you will be able to download it from the SmartAVI website. Firm-
ware is updated through the RS-232 connection and requires a program called
Chip45Boot2 which is freely available. Open up Chip45Boot 2 and load the firmware file by
clicking on “select flash file” and select the downloaded firmware update. Next establish the
RS-232 connection with the HDMV box. Click “Connect to Bootloader” and then power on the
HDMV soon thereafter. The firmware should be uploading. Click “disconnect from Bootloader”
when it finishes and restart the device.
Q: I see vertical lines on the display what happened?
A: One of your input signals is likely dirty. Replace the offending cable and cycle the power. A
power reset for the display can also be performed by typing “ddrpwrrst” in the console and
pressing enter or by pressing the button “1” and “MENU” on the front control panel at the
same time.
Q: Why does it take so long for the pictures to come up after powering on?
A: The HDMV is initializing and this requires time.
Q: My hotkey stopped working and I seem to be in computer control, what happened?
A: Your control has landed on the operating system and not through the keyboard control,
this happens if you have another hotkey on your computer that conflicts with the HDMV. The
solution is to change the hotkey of either the HDMV or your computer. If you are using win-
dows simply press the windows button one time, and then issue another hotkey command to
Q: Why do my inputs appear pink, what happened?
A: The outputs of the attached devices have become confused. Physically unplugging the
input and plugging it back in should restore the problem. Power cycle the HMDV.
