Manual EDID Capture
Applicable to ST-2C5xxxx-L-600 models only.
The 15HD connector on the
ST-2C5V(A)-L-600
provides only support for DDC, no video. The ST-2C5V(A)-L-600 Local Unit
includes a button labeled “DDC Update” to be pressed in order to record and save EDID data.
To capture EDID data;
1. Connect a monitor to the 15HD connector on the Local Unit labeled “EDID Capture”.
2. Power ON both the monitor and Local Units.
3. Press the button labeled “DDC Update” with a sharp object.
The capture will start right away and the green LED of the “CAT5 Remote 1” connector will turn OFF while the EDID data is
transferred. The green LED will illuminate again once the transfer is complete and the unit is ready for normal use.
The
ST-2C5V(A)-L-600 Local Unit will save the EDID data and present that information to the CPU any time the CPU is power-cycled.
Note: The 15HD connector on the ST-2C5V(A)-L-600 is only used for capturing EDID data. It is not a video port for
viewing local video.

When used, the monitors connected to both Remote Units should be the same model. If necessary, the Local Unit can be
connected to the monitor at the site of the remote and powered by the power supply at the remote location. Following the
process described above, EDID data can be recorded and the Local Unit relocated to the site of the CPU.

Applicable to ST-C5xxxx-L-600 models only.
The 15HD connector on the
ST-C5V, -C5VA and –C5VRS-L-600
supports DDC
and
video. If
your unit includes a “DDC Update” button, it can be pressed in order to retrieve EDID from the
Remote and Local monitor and forward it to the CPU. Additionally, the ST-C5Vxx-L-600 Local
Unit will save the EDID data and present that information to the CPU any time the CPU is
power-cycled. The EDID capture method is the same as described above.
