Acquiring the EDID 

The 

VM-8H

 initially operates with the default EDID. This means that you can 

turn ON the power before connecting any of the acceptors or the source.  

You can acquire the EDID from: 

 

One Output (the selected output LED illuminates) 

 

The Default EDID (all the output LEDs flash) 

 

Several connected outputs, the Auto-mix Mode

, (the output 

LEDs flash in sequence)  

To cycle between the different modes (One Output, Default and Auto-mix), 
press the SELECT button, as defined in 

Table 2

6.1.1  Acquiring the EDID from one Output 

To acquire the EDID of a new output display, do the following:  

1.  Press the SELECT button.  

The currently selected OUTPUT LED illuminates. 

2.  Press the SELECT button again to cycle from one output to another

1  The  EDID  acquired  is  a  weighted  average  of  all  the  connected  outputs.  For  example,  if  several  displays  with  different 

resolutions are connected to the outputs, the acquired EDID supports all the resolutions, as well as other parameters included 

in the EDID
