VM-2H2 

– Defining the VM-2H2 4K HDMI 2.0 1:2 DA 

 

To select the operation mode, set the DIP-switches as follows: 

 

 

Programming 
mode 

HDCP Input 
(MAC mode) 

Force RGB 

Lock Default EDID 

DIP

 

1

 

2

 

3

 

OFF (up) 

Normal mode 

HDCP enabled  Force RGB 

EDID not locked  

ON (down)  Enable programming  HDCP disabled  Normal mode  EDID locked  

 

The 

VM-2H2

 

toggles between “Normal” and “Force RGB” modes. 

 

In “Force RGB” mode, the read EDID is rewritten to identify only RGB support. 

 

  To force RGB, set DIP 3 OFF (up). 

  After setting Force RGB mode you must re-acquire the EDID to update the Force RGB 

change. 

Powering on the device identifies the mode as follows: 

 

In “Normal mode” (meaning no forcing RGB), the LEDs flash once. 

 

In “Force RGB mode”, the LEDS flash four times. 

 

Force RGB modifies the EDID saved on the input to not support YUV format.  
In case of a pink display, use the Force RGB mode. 

 

LED Indications 

The input and output LEDs turn on only when there is an input signal and an active output 
device connected. 

Flashing LEDs indicate the following states:

Flashes slowly, repeatedly

Output device has invalid EDID
