Obtaining EDID Data From Display Screens When Using the DXF-100 Interface
41
To obtain a display’s timing information in XAdmin:
•
Connect the display directly to the DVI output of the Kaleido-X, by using a copper cable. (This is not
always practical, since the display can be far or mounted on a wall.)
•
Alternatively, connect the DXF-100 transmitter to the DVI input connector on the display, and then
connect it to its power supply. The LED will flash for a few seconds while the transmitter reads and
stores the EDID information from the display. When the LED stops flashing, disconnect the transmitter
from the display and reconnect it to the Kaleido-X. The EDID information from the display will now be
visible in XAdmin.
Note:
Prior to Kaleido-X v. 3.00, EDID information was only reported for the
master
KXO-DUAL card. In more
recent versions, every KXO-DUAL card reports the EDID information for its associated displays.
Please refer to the
DXF-100 DVI Fiber Optic Interface User’s Manual
(part no. M792-9500-1XX) for more
information.
Verifying a Kaleido-RCP2
To verify that the RCP2 is functioning normally, do the following:
1. Log on to the RCP2.
2. Test various operations using the RCP2 keyboard and the mouse (e.g. load layout presets).
Verifying an Audio Bridge Terminal
To verify that the ABT is functioning normally, do the following:
•
Inspect the ACTIVITY and front panel LEDs on the unit to make sure there are no error conditions.
The ACTIVITY indicator is located on the right-hand side of the rear panel. This LED reports the status
of the Ethernet connection as follows:
Color

Off
No link detected
