Page 14 Page 15 Troubleshooting: Q: I am not seeing any video? A: If connecting via onent, make sure you have connected the 3 RCA connectors correctly at both the Input and Output sides. The KD-MSWCAT4X4/8X8 does not do any Video format conversions so it will only output the format that is input. If you are inputting VGA you will be outputting VGA. Make sure the Video output is not muted. Q. I do not hear any audio? A. The audio input takes a standard analog signal via a 3.5mm stereo audio to a 2 x RCA breakout cable. Make sure the audio input level is not 00 and the output is not muted. If you are using Digital audio, ensure the correct breakout cable is utilized and that you are feeding a coaxial input. The KD-MSWCAT4X4/8x8 does not do any Audio format conversions so it will only output the format that is input. If you are inputting PCM audio you will be outputting PCM audio Important Product Warnings: 1. Connect all cables before providing power to the unit. 2.
