Telnet Control
Setup procedure for 4K2K UHD
The default EDID setting, regardless of I/O cards, is 1080p@60Hz. Because EDID determines when a source can output a 4K2K signal,
the matrix switcher must be told which source and display to use for EDID information exchange. These changes are done using the front
panel of the matrix or Telnet.
Using the Telnet command
“EDIDSTATUS”
it will return results like this.
telnet-> edidstatus
EDID Mode:
(1)
INTERNAL
(2)
DYNAMIC
(3)
MANUAL

telnet->
Say you have a UHD Blu-Ray player connected to Input 4, and your UHD display is on Output 10
You first send Telnet
EDIDMODE 4 10
The matrix will confirm with:
“EDIDMODE 4 10”
Example:
telnet-> edidmode 4 10
EDIDMODE 4 10
telnet->
This changes the EDID of the matrix switcher from Internal to External on Input 4
Then you would send Telnet
EDIDPORT 4 10
The matrix will confirm with
“The EDID of In Port 4 is assigned to Out Port 10.”
Example:
telnet-> edidport 4 10
The EDID of In Port 4 is assigned to Out Port 10.
telnet->
After making these changes, you Telnet
REBOOT
The matrix will power down and back up.
You can map the EDID from any UHD source to any UHD display, in any combination.
When you map a UHD source to a UHD display, the UHD source will work with all your UHD displays, but only in UHD. You can continue
to route a 1080p@60Hz signal to any of the UHD displays and have video, but you cannot route a UHD source to a non-UHD display and
have video. This is because you mapped the UHD source to be, well, UHD.
