Troubleshooting

No video output on HDMI display

Verify that the SDI input cable is securely connected to both the source and the converter. Ensure the SDI source is powered on and outputting a signal. Check that the HDMI cable is functioning correctly and securely connected to the display. Confirm the display is set to the correct HDMI input. The converter automatically detects resolution, but try a different SDI input signal if possible.

Audio is not present or incorrect

Check that audio is embedded in the SDI input signal. Ensure that any de-embedded audio outputs (AES/EBU, Analog) are correctly connected and configured on your receiving equipment. Verify audio settings within your SDI source if applicable.

Converter does not power on

Ensure the DC power adapter is securely connected to both the converter and a working power outlet. Try a different power outlet. Confirm the correct voltage is being supplied (12-18V DC).

Intermittent signal loss

Inspect SDI and HDMI cables for damage and ensure they are properly seated. Try replacing the SDI and/or HDMI cables with known good ones. Check for sources of electromagnetic interference near the cables or converter.
