EDID Emulator for HDMI® Displays

About this product

When a video source is connected to a display, EDID information is 

shared between devices to ensure optimal video performance.

However, if you are using a third party device, such as a video 

extender, between your source and display, the EDID information 

may not pass through correctly.

The emulator lets you clone or emulate the EDID settings from 

your display and deliver it to your video source to ensure proper 

signaling between your devices.

EDID cloning

To clone (copy) the EDID settings from your display:

1.  If your video source is a computer system, set the mode switch on 

the EDID emulator to 

PC mode

 or 

If your video source is consumer electronics equipment such as a 

Blu-ray™ or DVD player, set the mode switch on the EDID emulator 

to 

A/V mode

.

2.  If your video source is HDMI, use the included screw driver to set 

dip switches 1 through 6 in the OFF position (down). 

 or 

If your video source is DVI (with an HDMI adapter) set dip switches 

1 through 5 in the OFF position (down), while dip switch 6 is set in 

the ON position (up).

3.  Use the included screwdriver, to set the rotary dial on the EDID 

emulator to position 1.

4.  Connect the USB power cable to the Power port on the EDID 

emulator and to a USB power source.

5.  Connect an HDMI cable (not included) to your display device and 

to the HDMI output port on the EDID emulator.
