Operation
The EDID Emulator contains pre-set EDID information for many
commonly used resolutions and refresh rates. The following instructions
should be followed in order to clone an alternative resolution not
included in the pre-set EDID information.
1. Connect a DVI cable from the display to the female port of the DVI
emulator.
2. Connect the emulator to the DVI port on the source device.
3. Disconnect the emulator from the DVI port on the source device.
4. Re-connect the emulator to the DVI port on the source device.
5. Disconnect the DVI cable from the emulator.
6. The blue LED on the DVI emulator will begin to flash, this indicates
that the emulator is ready to receive a new EDID.
7. Within 5 seconds of the LED beginning to flash, connect a display
with a desired resolution to the emulator using a DVI cable.
8. The EDID has now been cloned.
Once you have successfully cloned an EDID, this will be stored for
future use. If you would like to clone a new EDID, repeat the steps above. In order to revert to the pre-set
EDID data, repeat steps 1 to 5. When the blue LED begins to flash, allow 6 seconds to elapse without
interfering with the emulator. This will restore the pre-set EDID information to the emulator.
