Creating an EDID
Since above mentioned Advanced EDID Editor needs more complex knowledge about EDID, Lightware
introduced a wizard-like interface for fast and easy EDID creation. With Easy EDID Creator it is possible to
create custom EDIDs in four simple steps. By clicking on the
Create
button below the left panel, Easy EDID
Creator is opened in a new window.

RS-232 Tab
RS-232 Tab in Control menu in MMX8x4-HT420M model
RS-232 data transmission runs three different interface:
#rs-232 #rs232 #commandinjection
▪
P1, P1
channels are for bidirectional RS-232 communication. Disconnected, Control and Command
Injection operation modes are available.
▪
P2, P3
channels can be TTL serial ports or Infra ports depending on the transmitted data protocol.
This port is able to transmit a unidirectional data flow, for example forwarding the serial messages or
Infra messages, which come from the Control Ethernet port (in this case the operation mode is always
Command Injection). Sending serial or infra message is also possible.
▪
TPS channels* are able to send and receive serial data, so
P4-P10
ports can operate in Disconnected,
Control and Command Injection mode.
