Acquiring the EDID
Each input on the
VM-300HDCP
has a factory default EDID loaded (see
Section 8
). This lets you connect the power before having to connect one of the
acceptors.
The factory-default is the EDID which is programmed into the VM-300HDCP before being
shipped.
The EDID can be acquired from:
This is usually done only once when the machine is being set up in an installation. Once
acquired, the EDID is saved in non-volatile memory and further acquisition is not necessary.
•
One output
•
The default EDID
•
Up to three connected outputs using the Auto-mix Mode
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.
Repeatedly pressing the EDID SELECT button cycles through the EDID sources
in the following order:
If you attempt to acquire the EDID from an output that is not connected the default EDID is
acquired.
•
Monitor (Monitor LED flashes)
•
Output 1 (Output 1 LED flashes)
•
Output 2 (Output 2 LED flashes)
•
Default EDID (all LEDs flash)
•
Auto-Mix EDID (all LEDs light)
To store the selected EDID, press EDID READ as described in the following
example.
To cancel the EDID modification wait for a few seconds without touching any button.
