6Acquiring the EDID

The TP-145transmitter can capture the EDID information from a display device.

To load the default EDID:

1.Plug the 12V DC power adapter into the power socket on the TP-145and connect the adapter to the mains electricity.

2.With no display device connected to the TP-145, press the EDID CAPTURE button.

3.The EDID STATUS LED flashes rapidly several times and the new EDID is copied.

To capture the EDID information from a display device:

1.Using a short cable1, connect the XGA INPUT 15-pin HD connector on the TP-145to the input XGA connector of the display.

2.Connect power to the display and switch it on.

3.Plug the 12V DC power adapter into the power socket on the TP-145and to the mains electricity.

4.Press the EDID CAPTURE button.

5.The EDID STATUS LED flashes slowly several times and the EDID is captured.

6.Disconnect the display.
