The input EEPROM #M is overwritten immediately, independent of the EDID mode (-,S,F,T) of the input #M.
When EDID mode if “follow” (F), the input EEPROM is overwritten again after next change of routing
which concerns input #M (because fulfilling the Follow-behaviour).
Preffered application of this command is using it with inputs in „static“ (S) EDID mode. If your video source
is not sourcing video data because it does not like the “factory” EDID info of the input, you can read back
EDID data of a displaying device (important: that is WORKING with the source) from the output and store it
on a bank manager’s bank available, using “edid_read” command. Then, copy the bank content to the
input where your source is attached (using “edid_write”) and then ensure, desired input is in static mode.
In doing so, your video source will get exacly the same EDID information as when connected to the display
directly.

exit
Format:
exit
Quits the console application. For serial console, the user is logged off. For Telnet terminal session, the ses-

help
Format 1:
help
Lists all commands available.
Format 2:
help <command>
Displays additional help text for command <command>.
3.6.2.9
ifstat
Format:
ifstat
Displays network connectivity status of TCP/IP network interface.
Example:
>ifstat
IF IP addr Def Gtway state type H/W addr
0 10.0.1.61 10.0.1.2 UP Ethernet 0 :60:35:6 :26:29
Please read it:
Parameter
Interpretation
IF
number of network interface. Reads
always „0“ with this unit.
IP addr
actual IP adress of the unit.
Def Gtway
default gateway’s IP adress
state
internal (! of the unit) network inter-
face status. Even saying “UP”, this
does not mean that a nework LINK is
UP, just the internal network compo-
nents are up.
type
reads always „Ethernet“
H/W addr
MAC-Adresse of network interface.
ReadOnly, because used as system
identification.
Please use this MAC adress, if you
want to assign a static IP adress to the
unit using a DHCP server (static DHCP).
Please ask your network administrator
for more information.
