Connecting a VM-2HDCP 1:2 DVI Distributor

5.1.1Acquiring/Changing the EDID

You can work with the default EDID or acquire or change an EDID via one of the connected outputs. Use the EDID Setup button to acquire the output EDID information.

To acquire or change the EDID of a new output display:

1.Connect the power supply. The ON LED lights.

2.Connect the new output display device.

3.Press and hold the EDID button for more than three seconds and release. The INPUT LED blinks and the OUT 1 LED and OUT 2 LED blink alternately.

4.Press the EDID button again when the appropriate OUT LED lights, that is, to copy the EDID from the display connected to the DVI:

OUT 1 connector, press the EDID button when the OUT1 LED is on

OUT 2 connector, press the EDID button when the OUT2 LED is on

In either case, the VM-2HDCPcopies the EDID from the display. If no display is connected to the selected DVI output, the default EDID will be chosen.

Note that during the EDID setup, the respective OUT LED blinks. When that

output is connected, that OUT LED illuminates

5.1.2Acquiring the Clone EDID

To acquire the Clone EDID, do the following1:

1.Connect the new output display device (for example, to OUT 1).

2.Disconnect the power supply.

3.Reconnect the power supply while pressing the EDID button. The ON LED lights and the OUT 1 and OUT 2 blink alternately.

4.Release the EDID button when the OUT 1 LED blinks.

The Clone EDID is stored in the non-volatile memory when the OUT 1 LED ceases to blink.

1 This example refers to OUT 1. The same applies for OUT 2 if the acceptor is connected to OUT 2
