5.1 Switching between connected HDMI sources
The Connect 542 UHD™ allows you to choose which HDMI source [2] is reproduced
on any of the two TVs. If you want to select another HDMI source, please use the
remote control or the "Output A / B" button on the front.
5.2 EDID
EDID stands for Extended Display Identification Data and is used for communication
between HDMI sources and TVs or projectors to determine the supported image
resolutions and audio formats. The HDMI source requests this information from the TV
or projector and determines the best resolution or audio format. When using multiple
TVs or projectors, the best resolution and audio format that is supported by all
connected displays is determined.
This may cause problems in some situations, for example, when one of the connected
sources or TVs does not fully support EDID.
5.2.1 EDID settings
Use the EDID switch at the front [3] to choose the following options:
• AUTO: automatically detects the highest possible common image resolution and
audio format that is supported by both TVs. Images and audio will be displayed on
both TVs.
• COPY A: only detects the resolution and audio format of the TV that is connected
to “Output A”. This prevents problems with playing, for example, 3D or UltraHD
(4k). “Output A'’ is usually used to connect the highest specification TV.
• 4K30: Both TVs will, if supported, display a resolution of 4K@30Hz.
Tip: Always use the ''AUTO'' setting in standard situations. Images and audio will be
displayed on all connected displays. With the other EDID settings, image or audio
might not be displayed on one or more displays if the appropriate setting is not
supported.
