КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема
If you encounter issues with your FeinTech AX341, please refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Нема видео/аудио излаза:
- Ensure all HDMI cables are securely connected to both the AX341 and your source/display devices.
- Verify that the correct input is selected on the AX341 (check input indicators).
- Confirm that your display is set to the correct HDMI input.
- Try different HDMI cables, as faulty cables can cause signal issues.
- Bypass the AX341 by connecting a source directly to a display to isolate the problem.
- Restart all connected devices, including the AX341, by unplugging them from power for 30 seconds and then reconnecting.
- Audio Issues (No Sound, Distorted Audio):
- Check audio connections to your soundbar or AV receiver (HDMI eARC/ARC, Optical, 3.5mm Jack).
- Ensure the correct audio input is selected on your sound system.
- If using eARC, verify that eARC is enabled on your TV and the AX341 is set to the correct TV's eARC audio (TV1 or TV2).
- Confirm that the audio format from your source device is supported by your sound system and the AX341's audio extraction ports (e.g., TOSLINK only supports stereo or Dolby Digital).
- Adjust volume levels on all devices.
- Automatic Switching Not Working:
- Ensure the AUTO function is enabled on the AX341.
- Note that some source devices (e.g., Apple TV, Xbox) may not fully support automatic switching.
- Try manually switching inputs if auto-switching is unreliable.
- CEC Control Problems:
- Verify that CEC (often called Anynet+, Bravia Sync, SimpLink, etc.) is enabled on your TV, soundbar, and source devices.
- CEC functionality can be inconsistent between different brands and models.
- Resolution/Picture Quality Issues:
- Ensure your HDMI cables are rated for HDMI 2.1 and support the desired resolution (e.g., 8K or 4K@120Hz).
- Check the resolution settings on your source device and display.
- If using the downscaler, ensure it is functioning as expected for 1080p displays.
