INTRODUCTION  
The Atlona AT-DVI-41A is 4 inputs and 1 output DVI Switcher with Stereo Audio. The switcher is designed to route up  
to 4 x DVI sources with Audio to a single display. The DVI-41A is capable of passing extremely high resolutions up to  
1920x1200 or 1080p. Each input is featured with a built-in repeater which will help to keep the signal quality the same  
as it was originally.  
The DVI switcher is fully HDCP compliant, therefore could be used along with HDMI sources, DVI/HDMI adapters or cables  
will be required.  
The Atlona 4x1 DVI Switcher could be controlled though IR remote, RS232 port or manually via buttons selection on the  
front panel of the switch.  
Note: For applications where customer would need the computer to sense a monitor at all the time even when switcher is switched  
to a different computer, we recommend to use our EDID Recorder, AT-DVISync. User would require 1 x DVISync per computer.

2. RS232  
The Atlona switcher is featured with RS232 control port which allows users to control the switch though a control system  
or from the computer.  
The serial communication parameters are 9600 baud rate, 8 bit, No Parity and 1 stop bit  
When the unit recognizes a complete command it will perform the requested action - there is no delimiter character  
required.  
Note: The unit does not send out a feedback message when a value is changed from the front panel or by IR control. If the switcher  
needs to be controlled though front panel in addition to the RS232 control, user should regularly verify the unit’s status to ensure  
the control system accurately reflects the current settings.
