General / D8/D8 PLUS / D8 PLUS Input and Signal Switch

D8 PLUS Input Channels and Signal Switching

D8 PLUS supports two input channels: DP 1.4 and HDMI. Both input sources can be connected simultaneously, allowing users to switch between them without reconnecting cables.

Input switching is manual. The device does not automatically detect and switch to an active input source. To switch signals, go to Menu > Input and select the required input source.

D8 PLUS DP 1.4 Input Note

When using a DP 1.4 signal on the D8 Plus, manually select DP 1.4 under Menu > Input. Selecting the correct input is required for stable system operation and proper EDID configuration.

An incorrect input selection may cause system instability or prevent EDID configuration from working properly.
