FAST SWITCHING
Fast Switching Technology
Fast Switching Technology (FST) is a Gefen software implementation for HDMI
1.3 products. FST was created to improve the lengthy HDMI authentication
process, based on the HDMI and HDCP specifi cations.
FST provides quicker A/V source switching and greatly improves the overall A/V
system behavior and performance when more than one HDTV display is used in
the system setup.
FST allows connecting / disconnecting or turning ON / OFF of HDTV displays
without having these activities affect other Hi-Def sources routed to any other
HDTV display in the same system.
FAST MODE:
Setting the Matrix to FAST mode will improve performance when connecting /
disconnecting Hi-Def sources, and powering ON / OFF HDTV displays.
NOTE: When switching from SLOW mode to FAST mode, the HDTV displays
connected to the Matrix will blink momentarily.
SLOW MODE:
When set to SLOW mode, the Matrix will follow the standard authentication
process, based on the HDMI and HDCP specifi cations. SLOW mode is
recommended when the source does not support multiple devices.
