Four DIP switches located on the bottom of the Receiver Unit.

DIP Switch 1 - EDID Mode (Default = ON)

ON - Pass-Through Mode

DDC and HPD are passed through. Both the connection status and the full video capabilities of the monitor are used by the source device.

OFF - Local EDID Mode

Local EDID is used instead of the EDID from the display device. EDID features newer than HDMI 1.3 are removed when the display is read. This provides a general EDID which is compatible with more displays.
