FC18 is a display ON/OFF controller for 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) HDR HDMI signals. It accepts and outputs an HDMI signal after reclocking and equalizing. On detection of the onset of an input signal FC18 sends an ON command to the display or projector and on detection of the loss of the input signal FC18 sends an OFF command. FC18 can also be used to control a display device manually via front panel buttons, Ethernet or contact closure switches.
