EDID

 (Extended Display Identification Data)

EDID is the exchange of capabilities between a source and display. This handshake ensures the audio 
and video signals sent are supported by both source and display.
The AT-HD4-V42 has 3 EDID modes. Internal picks the highest common audio/visual signal between 
the devices and the available EDIDs within the switcher. External selects the highest common 
resolution between the current input and the display connected to output 1. Learned saves the EDID 
from the current output 1 display and locks it to the output.

Internal EDID

The Internally loaded EDID settings are the most common A/V signals that come standard in most TV 
displays and computer monitors. The AT-HD4-V42 will pick the highest common resolution between 
the devices.

External EDID

External EDID is the highest common audio/video signal between the current source device and 
display. It is useful for devices with uncommon resolutions that are not stored internally. 

Learned EDID

Learned EDID allows for a display’s EDID to be saved to the switcher. The saved EDID will not reset 
when power cycled or the display is replaced.

NOTE:

 Hold the EDID button for 5 seconds to save a new EDID to memory.
