Acquiring the EDID via front panel
Press the EDID SETUP once to display the current EDID source: OUT 1, OUT 2, OUT 3, OUT 4, or all OUT LEDs flash
(default EDID).
To acquire an EDID:
1. Press EDID SETUP . the current EDID source is displayed.
2. Press EDID SETUP (a second time) to enter EDID select mode.
3. Press EDID SETUP repeatedly to cycle through the EDID source options.
The OUT LEDs flash in the following order:
OUT 1 -> OUT 2 -> OUT 3 -> OUT 4 -> all output LEDs flash (default EDID).
Stop pressing EDID SETUP once the required EDID source is reached.
4. Wait a few seconds, until VM-4UHD acquires the EDID.
When complete, all output LEDS return to normal operation, displaying the present output connection status.
If an unconnected output is chosen or the connected EDID cannot be read, the
VM-4UHD
loads the default EDID.
Forcing the RGB Mode
Normally (the default state), when acquiring the EDID, the device supports any color space that is defined in the acquired
EDID parameters. In case of a color space problem, using the Force RGB mode may improve the colors of the image on the
display.
To: Do the following:
Force the acquired EDID to
support only RGB color space
:
Press and hold the EDID button for few seconds until all the output LEDs
flash together four times.
Continue to acquire the desired EDID.
This acquired EDID is then forced to support the RGB color space only.
Return to the normal EDID mode : Press and hold the EDID button for few seconds until the output LEDs
flash together once.
Continue to acquire the desired EDID.
View the current EDID mode : Power cycle the unit.
All output LEDs will flash together once when in normal EDID mode, and
four times when in Force RGB mode.
