Acquiring the EDID
Initially, the
VM-2Hxl
operates with the factory default EDID. This lets you connect
the power before connecting one of the acceptors or sources.
You can acquire the EDID from:
This is usually done only once, when the machine is being set up in an installation. Once
acquired, the EDID is saved in non-volatile memory and further acquisition is not necessary.
One output (the relevant output illuminates)
The default EDID (both output LEDs flash)
Two connected outputs, the auto-mix mode (both output LEDs illuminate)
The EDID acquired is a weighted average of all the connected outputs. For example, if
several displays with different resolutions are connected to the outputs, the acquired
EDID supports all the resolutions, as well as other parameters included in the EDID.
When pressing the EDID SETUP button briefly, the OUT LEDs indicate which type
of EDID was last acquired. If the:
OUT 1 LED illuminates, the OUT 1 EDID is stored in the non-volatile
memory
OUT 2 LED illuminates, the OUT 2 EDID is stored in the non-volatile
memory
OUT 1 and OUT 2 LEDs illuminate, the Auto-Mix EDID is stored in the non-
volatile memory
OUT 1 and OUT 2 LEDs flash, the Default EDID is stored in the non-volatile
memory
To acquire the EDID, do the following:
1. Connect the power.
2. Connect the output or outputs from which you want to acquire the EDID.
3. Press and hold the EDID SETUP button to select the desired EDID.
The OUT LEDs illuminate in the following cycle: OUT 1, OUT 2, both
illuminate (auto-mix) and both flash (default).
