EDID LEARN
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
A full Manual can be downloaded from
www.ipgard.com/documentation/
The KVM is designed to learn the connected
monitor’s EDID upon power up. In the event
of connecting a new monitor to the KVM, a
power recycle is required.
The KVM will indicate to the user the EDID
learn process by flashing the front panel’s
LEDs. Port one green and push button blue
LEDs will both begin to flash for about 10
seconds. When the LEDs stop flashing, the
EDID learn process is done.
If the KVM has more than one video board
(such as dual-head and quad-head models),
then the unit will continue to learn the EDIDs
of the connected monitors and indicate the
progress of the process by flashing the next
port selection green and push button blue
LEDs respectively.
The monitor must be connected to the video
output connector located in the console
space at the back of the KVM during the
EDID learn process.
If the read EDID from the connected monitor
is identical to the current stored EDID in the
KVM then the EDID learn function will be
skipped.
1. Ensure that power is turned off or disconnected from the unit and the computers.
2. Use a DisplayPort cable to connect the DisplayPort output port from each computer to the
corresponding DisplayPort IN ports of the unit.
3. Use a USB cable (Type-A to Type-B) to connect a USB port on each computer to the
respective USB ports of the unit.
4. Optionally connect a stereo audio cable (3.5mm to 3.5mm) to connect the audio output of
the computers to the AUDIO IN ports of the unit.
5. Connect the monitors to the HDMI OUT console ports of the unit using HDMI cables.
6. Connect a USB keyboard and mouse to the two USB console ports.
7. Optionally connect stereo speakers to the AUDIO OUT port of the unit.
8. Optionally connect CAC (COMMON ACCESS CARD, SMART CARD READER) to the CAC port
in the user console interface.
9. Power on the KVM by connecting a 12VDC power supply to the power connector, and then
turn on all the computers.
Note:
The computer connected to port 1 will always be selected by default after power up.
Note:
You can connect up to 4 computers to the 4 port KVM.
