How to use

Connect an HDMI source (for example a media player or laptop) to the extractor's HDMI input and connect the HDMI output to the display. Use the extractor's audio output(s) to connect to an amplifier, active speakers or a recording device using appropriate cables. Power the unit according to the manufacturer's instructions and verify that the source device is configured to output audio over HDMI. Once connected, video will pass to the display while audio is available independently from the extractor's outputs.

Usage recommendations

Place the extractor near source and display devices to minimise cable length and signal loss. Use high-quality HDMI and audio cables rated for the required resolution and audio format. Verify compatibility of connected audio equipment with the extractor's output format and check source settings if audio is not detected.
