Linx  DVI Matrix Switchers User’s Guide

5

RGB

The block diagram in Figure 1-1 illustrates the selection of EDID to be passed to the host 
graphics adapter. The data is stored in the EDID register which can be read whether the 

Linx 

DVI Switcher

 is powered on or off.

1.5.2

Hot Plug Event

When a display is connected to or disconnected from an output port, a 

hot plug 

event occurs. 

If the unit is configured with EDID pass-through and input is set for Dynamic, the 

Linx 

Switcher

 downloads the display's EDID parameters to the EDID register for the duration of 

that connection. The source device reads the EDID from this register.

A 

hot plug

 event also occurs when a graphics source is connected to a 

Linx Switcher 

input 

port. The 

Linx Switcher

 will continuously supply EDID to the graphics source even if the 

Linx 

Switcher

 is powered off. 

A Force Hot Plug command is available via the WCP or command line (

FORCEHotPlug

).

1.5.3

EDID Priority

When an input is routed to multiple outputs, a number of options are available. Fixed EDID 
can be selected from the EDID list or a priority scheme may be used to select EDID from one 
of the output ports. Priority is needed when the displays have different resolutions from one 
another and can be set to select either the active output with the lowest resolution or the 
lowest numbered active output. EDID priority is applied to Emulated and display pass-
through data. The input configuration must be set to Dynamic for the priority schemes to 
work.

Instances where two or more displays’ resolutions are not compatible with each other may 
occur. For these occasions, a lower “common-denominator” resolution or scaler will be 
needed.

Only active outputs are considered when establishing priority. Active outputs are those 
having parameters stored in the 

Linx Switcher

 EDID display register; these may be outputs 

currently connected or those with assigned emulated EDID.

1.5.4

EDID List

The EDID list is used to apply parameters to the fixed and emulated EDID registers. User 
entries in the list are numbered 1 to 100 with an additional factory default based on the Dell 
2408 monitor (1920x1200 at 59.95 Hz). Data contained in the list include:

■

List index number

■

Name

■

Display device manufacturer’s ID

■

Resolution and frame rate

Advanced users may view and modify additional timing parameters with third-party software 
such as Phoenix EDID Designer freeware available at
