Quad Mode
- In quad mode, the screen is split into four fields of equal size each displaying the entire contents of four different video sources.
- Fluid, real-time video performance with 60 frames per second (fps) in all four quadrants.
Full Screen Mode
- In full screen mode, one of the four video sources is displayed in full screen size and maximum resolution.
Picture in Picture (PIP) Mode
- In PIP mode, the full screen display of one of the four video sources is accompanied by three small images (thumbnails) of the three other video sources on the right hand margin of the screen allowing simultaneous monitoring.
- If there is no video source connected to one of the thumbnails, its screen will remain black.
Infrared Remote Control
- IR control of multiviewer
- Locally control with the included IR remote using the built-in IR receiver on the multiviewer.
- Remotely control with the included IR remote via an IR receiver connected to the remote unit.
- IR control of connected sources
- Each IR emitter connected to the multiviewer must be placed close to the corresponding video source.
- E.g. IR Tx 1 emitter must be placed near Input 1 device.
- Locally control with the source IR remote using the built-in IR receiver on the multiviewer.
- Remotely control with the source IR remote via an IR transmitter connected to the multiviewer and an IR receiver connected to the remote unit.
- Each IR emitter connected to the multiviewer must be placed close to the corresponding video source.
- IR control of connected display
- Locally control the remote display with the display IR remote via the IR receiver on the multiviewer and an IR transmitter connected to the remote unit.

How to Cascade SPLITMUX-HD-4RT and SPLITMUX-C5HDR-4LC-CLR
The SPLITMUX-HD-4RT and SPLITMUX-C5HDR-4LC-CLR can be cascaded together in any combination, with either model as the master and/or slaves in any combination and any number of slave levels. The SPLITMUX-HD-4RT supports Full Screen, PiP, Quad, and Custom modes. The SPLITMUX-C5HDR-4LC-CLR supports Full Screen PiP, and Quad modes. Keep both limitations in mind when configuring the desired cascade effect. Cascaded outputs for the SPLITMUX-C5HDR-4LC-CLR can be extended using the remote unit as long as the combined CAT6/6a/7 cable length between all levels of the cascade does not exceed 250 feet.
In this example, the SPLITMUX-HD-4RT is the master unit, and the four slaves are SPLITMUX-C5HDR-4LC-CLR units. Slave 1 and 2 are configured as Full Screen mode, Slave 3 as PiP mode, and Slave 4 as Quad mode. Input/Slave 1 is also extended up to 250 feet using a single CAT6/6a/7 cable. Using Custom Mode on the master unit, the following inputs are configured as below:
Input/Slave 1:
- Background image
- Red border
Input/Slave 2:
- Vertical image using adjusted aspect ratio
- Blue border
Input/Slave 3:
- Windowed image (Quad image)
- Green border
Input/Slave 4:
- Overlapping windowed image (PiP image)
- Yellow border
Note: SPLITMUX-C5HDR-4LC-CLR is not TAA or HDCP compliant.
