Copy EDID Settings Using Front Panel Controls
Using the front panel controls, you can copy HDMI Output EDID settings to the desired
HDMI Input. For instance, to copy HDMI Output 1’s EDID settings to HDMI Input 2:
1. Toggle the EDID DIP switch to 000.
2. Press the selection buttons on the front panel to select Input 2 for Output1, then
the LED blinks.
3. Long press the Enter ( ) button for 5 seconds. When the LED indicates “CPY
OK”, the EDID copying is successful. Otherwise, the “CPY FAIL” will be displayed.
NOTE:
1) If a HDMI Output and its mirrored HDBT Output are connected to displays at the
same time, the Matrix will only copy EDID of the display connected to HDBT Output.
2) If the EDID copying failed through Web UI or front panel operation, the Input’s EDID
will be replaced by [4k@30Hz/8bit only without 4:2:0 2.0ch audio without HDR].
