EDID Lock Mode

Use DIP switch 3 to set the desired EDID mode. (UP is On) How to set the two EDID Modes:

1.Local EDID Mode ON (Switch 3 = OFF, FACTORY DEFAULT SETTING)

During power-on, the connected display’s EDID is copied to all four local EDID storage locations at once. EDID stored in local memory is then passed to all input sources.

The EDID stored in the local locations can be overwritten with another EDID from the following locations:

Built-in EDID memory bank (up to 7 EDID records can be stored)

EDID collected directly from the input display upon power-up.

2.Local EDID Mode OFF (Switch 3 = ON)

The DDC signal of the connected display is routed directly to each input source. Each time a new source device is selected, EDID is transmitted from the attached display to the currently selected input source. (This mode will successfully pass HDCP signals.)

3.EDID Lock Mode (DIP Switch 4 = ON)

Locks the last stored EDID, even if the unit is power-cycled. To store a new EDID, do the following:

1.Power-down the Switcher and set DIP Switch 4 to the OFF position.

2.Connect the display to the DVI output port then power-on the Switcher.

3.Set DIP Switch 4 to the ON position to lock the EDID.
