Operation
1.Connect the captive screw connector from the supplied 12 VDC power supply into the power receptacle on the rear panel. Do not power on the power supply yet.
2.Connect the source device to the DVI input receptacle on the rear panel.
3.Run cables from the display device(s) and connect them to the DVI output receptacles on the rear panel.
4.Power on the display device(s).
5. Power on the distribution amplifier. The LED will light amber to show that the unit is receiving power.
6. Power on the input device.
When a DVI video source boots up it normally communicates with the output device using the
Extron's EDID Minder feature maintains continuous EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) communication with the attached source and ensures that the DVI source powers up correctly and maintains a proper video output, even if the display is off or when a new monitor is connected to the output.
When the distribution amplifier is powered on, it automatically scans all detectable outputs, selects the device with the lowest native resolution and passes the EDID information of that device to the input device.
If no output displays are connected, the distribution amplifier provides the EDID information stored from the last display to which it was connected. If no output device has previously been connected to the unit, or the unit has been set to the factory default, it uses the factory default resolution (1024 x 768).
