How to install LG Electronics USA Multi-Input Interface

1) Plan placement and power considerations: choose a location near the display or within an AV rack where all input sources can be conveniently connected and where power and network access are readily available. Ensure proper ventilation to maintain performance in warm environments.

2) Prepare sources and cables: gather your HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI-D cables, a suitable RS-232C control cable if your system uses legacy control, and an RJ-45 Ethernet cable for network management. Use shielded cables where possible to minimize interference in busy AV environments.

3) Connect inputs: attach your HDMI In, DisplayPort In, and DVI-D In sources to the corresponding ports on the Multi-Input Interface. Route the outputs toward the LG display’s input panel or your downstream switching gear as needed. If you plan to use network features, connect a LAN cable to the RJ-45 port.

4) Establish control pathways: if you are using RS-232C for direct control, connect the RS-232C In port to your compatible controller or theater system. For network-based control, ensure the LAN connection is active and configure the interface according to your control system’s requirements.

5) Power up and configure: supply power to the interface and verify that the display recognizes the input sources. Use the on-display menu or your control software to map inputs, establish preferred default sources, and calibrate any timing or EDID preferences as needed. Confirm that switching between inputs is fast and reliable across sessions.

6) test and document: run a series of source switches, verify image and audio behavior where applicable, and document device addresses, control commands, and any firmware update steps for ongoing maintenance. This helps ensure consistent performance across rooms and deployments.
