Port Numbering
On all cards apart from the DVI dual link cards, there are two physical ports on each card and
numbering of ports is sequential from top to bottom and left to right. Each DVI dual link card
provides one physical port which causes the loss of one number in the numbering sequence
of that card only. A sample numbering is shown in

There is no IN 4 or OUT 4 because these slots contain DVI dual link cards.
EDID Numbering Examples
The following EDID configuration is based on the port numbering shown in
and lists
requested switching configurations and their results.

From OUT 4
Blank (256 bytes of 0xFF)
From IN 8
None (error message displayed)
AV data flow is:
source
>
VS-1616DN-EM
>
display
. EDID information flow is:
display
>
VS-1616DN-EM
>
source
, which means that the EDID input is the display side and the EDID
output is the AV source side. This is the reverse of the AV data flow direction.
When assigning EDIDs, note that the top row of the LCD display labeled OUTPUTS relates to
the ports connected to the sources (AV inputs), and the bottom row of the LCD display
labeled INPUTS relates to the ports connected to displays (AV outputs).
