OPERATION NOTES

READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR

OPERATING THE 8X8 DVI MATRIX

•8x8 DVI Matrix is not HDCP compliant

•By default, EDID routing is based on the ﬁrst connected display to a source.

For example, if monitor A is the ﬁrst display to connect to source 1 its EDID will be used. All other displays that connect to source 1 thereafter will have its EDID ignored. If display 1 switches to another source a hot-plug will be sent and the EDID from the next display that is connected, in numerical order, will be used.

•The Status Output display will only list the current display/source routing.

•There is no internal scaling in the 8x8 DVI Matrix. All of the attached monitors must be able to display the resolutions output by the source devices. For maximum compatibility it is recommended that only one compatible/common resolution be used by all of the source devices.
