Dear Customer

Thank you for purchasing this product. For optimum performance 
and safety, please read these instructions carefully before 
connecting, operating or adjusting this product. Please keep this 
manual for future reference. 

INTRODUCTION

The ANI-42HPIP 4x2 Multiviewer is a high performance HDMI 
switch with integrated scaling and multi-windowing technology. It 
is an ideal solution for monitoring or displaying multiple sources 
simultaneously for use in control rooms, conference rooms or 
classrooms. Video resolutions up to 4K@60Hz and LPCM audio 
up to 7.1 channels at 192kHz are supported on both input and 
output and this unit is fully compatible with the HDCP 1.x and 2.2 
standards.

Any of (4) different HDMI sources may be displayed individually, full 
screen, or they can be displayed using a variety of multi-window 
modes including quad view and PiP with the output being sent to 
(2) mirrored HDMI outputs (4K@50/60Hz output supports quad 
view and full screen only). Management of input/window routing, 
position and sizing can be controlled easily by use of the front panel 
controls as well as by WebGUI, RS-232, Telnet and IR remote 
control options. This product has a 3 year warranty.
