How to Configure Auto EDID

To set up Auto EDID configuration, first make sure that all displays are powered on and connected to the matrix 

switcher. Then, press the following remote buttons in this order. Be sure to press each button within 10 seconds of 
the previous button-press to prevent the command from resetting.

Embedded EDID Configuration

In addition to the automatic configuration method, EDIDs in the B-500-MTRX-230 can be set to inputs manually 

by selecting an EDID from the embedded list (default EDIDs programmed into the matrix switcher).

The matrix switcher contains eight embedded EDIDs that may be assigned to inputs. These EDIDs define groups of 
video and audio capabilities that are useful for configuring sources in most systems.

Explanation of Embedded EDIDs

Video Resolution 

in the Embedded EDIDs is the 

highest resolution

 a connected source will output. That is, if the 

source is capable of 1080P@60 it will be required by EDIDs 1-6 to provide that resolution.  However, if the source 

is only capable of 1080i it will output 1080i, etc.  It is assumed that any display that can accept the specified video 
resolution can also accept all standard video resolutions less than that specified.

Color Depth

 is the maximum number of bits used to encode color.  24bit color depth is 8bits per color (red, blue, 

green).

3D

 indicates that the source can output 3D if it is available in the content.

Audio Format 

indicates the maximum number of audio channels, as well as the audio format that the source is 

allowed to output.  For an Embedded EDID with 7.1ch Audio Format, the source device will output the highest 
audio possible based on the content.  For example, if 7.1ch is not available and 5.1ch is available, then the output 
will be 5.1ch.The same is true if 2ch stereo is the only audio available from the source.  Embedded EDIDs with 2ch 
stereo will limit output to that audio format regardless of what is available in the content.

Embedded EDIDs 7 and 8

 are provided for legacy displays that can only accept resolutions up to a maximum of   

1080i / 720p.  The 1080i is listed first since almost all older HD displays can accept 1080i but not all can accept 

720p.  For these two Embedded EDIDs, (7&8) the source will output 1080i.  Should 1080i not be available, the 
source will output 720p.  

Note: 

There is a possibility that 720p may not work for a very small number of older displays that may still be in 

use.  It will be necessary to use a Learned EDID from the display to store in the Input EDID of any sources that will 
be routed to that display if 720p is not supported. See Section 7.9. EDID Learning  below

 

for directions to set a 

learned EDID.

When to Use Embedded EDIDs

•  2 channel audio is required for a particular output.
•  Lower video resolution is required for a particular output.
