Extron electronic 68-1316-02 User-assigned Edid mode, Changing the Edid mode, 1024 x 768 default

User-assigned EDID mode

In this mode, you can select an EDID file that is stored on the switcher at the factory. The selected EDID is stored at the inputs and is not overwritten; the switcher does not automatically obtain EDID information from the display.

You may want to use this mode if there is a problem with automatic communication of the EDID information from the attached display, and you want to ensure that the correct information is stored on the inputs. Also, because this mode disables automatic EDID reading and storage, you can retain one set of EDID information on the inputs and not have it changed when another display is connected.

•Factory-loaded EDID files — You can select from a list of 15 EDID files that are loaded on the switcher at the factory. Each EDID file contains a unique native resolution. The table below shows the EDID files that are provided with the switcher.

•User-loaded EDID file — In addition to the 15 EDID files provided with the switcher, an empty location (16) is provided, to which you can save the EDID data of the display that is currently connected to the output port of the switcher. This sixteenth file can then be selected as one of the available EDID files.

The table below lists the EDIDs that are available to be assigned by the user.

Changing the EDID mode

EDID modes can be switched only by SIS command. By default, the SW DVI Plus is in automatic EDID mode. To change between automatic and user-assigned modes, enter the following SIS command:

E A * X% EDID }

where X% is 0 (automatic mode) or the number of the EDID file that you want to select (1 through 16). (See the “Remote Configuration and Control” section, beginning on page 18, for instructions for entering SIS commands via RS-232.)

NOTE: The switcher remains in the selected EDID mode after power is recycled. If the

unit is reset to factory defaults, it reverts to automatic mode.
