Select the active source using the front-panel button, the included IR remote, or enable automatic switching to let the switch detect the active input. Use the USB-A or USB-C charging ports to provide low-power charging to connected peripherals.

Recommendations

For stable 8K or high-refresh-rate performance, use high-quality certified HDMI 2.1 cables and ensure connected source devices support the target resolution and refresh rate. Disable the IR receiver if remote interference is an issue. Verify that USB-C devices support DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3 to transmit video.
