Enova Digital Media Switchers - Hardware Reference Manual
EDID Resolutions Supported through Local DDC
This section covers all of the default EDIDs. In the System Configuration interface, the EDIDs contained in this section's
tables are displayed in a single dropdown menu (General section, Preferred EDID menu) and VICs are differentiated by
the presence of a "p" or "I" in the format. Standard and established timings are given in the tables following along with
detailed timing blocks.
IMPORTANT:
The EDID can be configured to support additional resolutions through the local DDC using the EDID options in
the System Configuration interface (see page 140).
NOTE:
The Consumer Technology Association (CTA) was formerly known as the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA):
the CEA 861 video standard has been renamed to CTA 861.

USB (HID) Transport
Use the Enova DGX Digital Media Switcher in conjunction with DXLink Transmitters and Receivers
(twisted pair and/or fiber), connect a DXLink Transmitter with HID hardware support to a PC and a
DXLink Receiver to a keyboard and mouse, the system then emulates commands from the receiver
back to the PC.
A list is available of HID devices which have been tested and found to work well with the latest
firmware (see "DXLink - HID Supported Devices" on the RX’s product page at www.amx.com).
