Fiberlink® 7500 Series
Triple EDID Function
The Fiberlink® 7500 Series of fiber optic transmission systems come with a unique “Triple
EDID” feature set that allows you to capture and store EDID information, acquire EDID
information from a connected loop-through display, or allow the7500/7510 or 7502/7512
unit to generate the EDID internally, on-the-fly. The procedure for implementing each are
described below.
Generating EDID internally when no EDID has been stored:
1) Power off your computer and the 7500 Series units.
2) Set the EDID switch to the “Internal” position.
3) Any DVI display can optionally be connected to the loop-through port
of the 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16.
4) Power on your 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16 Transmitter unit and the loop-through display.
5) Power on your computer.
6) The 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16 is now operation and will generate EDID internally.
Using EDID from a loop-through display:
1) Power off your computer and the 7500 Series units.
2) Set the EDID switch to the “Loop” position.
3) Connect a display to the 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16 loop-through port.
4) Power on your 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16 Transmitter unit and the loop-through display.
5) Power on your computer.
6) The 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16 is now operational and will use the EDID information
acquired from the loop-through display.
Capturing and storing EDID information:
1) Power off your computer and the 7500 Series units.
2) Set the EDID switch to the “Loop” position.
3) Connect a display to the 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16 loop-through port.
4) Power on the loop-through display.
5) Power on your 7500/10/14 or 7502/12/16 Transmitter unit.
6) Press the ‘Capture EDID’ button on the Transmitter as shown in Figure 2.
The Video LED will flash, indicating the capture is in progress. Note that any previously
stored EDID information will be overwritten.
7) When the Video LED remains off, the capture is complete.
Note: This procedure will erase any previously stored EDID information.
