  • Page 29: Ddc Switches

    DDC switches When the DVI-D source device boots up, it uses the Display Data Channel (DDC), a two-way communication protocol, to obtain Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) from the display device. This allows the source to output a resolution that matches the capabilities of the display. A bank of three switches allows the user to determine how the source device will obtain the EDID.

  • Page 30: Control Pass-Through

    Installation, cont’d Control pass-through The DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx cannot be controlled by RS-232 or IR controls. However, they are able to pass signals from a control device to a remote device that is controlled by those signals. Use the three-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector on the transmitter to input RS-232 or IR signals from a control device.

  • Page 31: Rs-232 Signals

  • Page 34: Configuration

    Configuration Using the EDID Minder to read and store EDID from a display During boot up, the DVI-D source device uses Display Data Channel (DDC) to obtain Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) from the display device. This allows the output signal to match the resolution and refresh rate of the display device.

  • Page 35: Using The Edid Minder With The Default Edid

    Power up the transmitter and the receiver. A single power supply can provide power to both units through the remote power connection. Connect the remote display to the receiver output. A local monitor display can also be connected to the transmitter output at this time.

  • Page 36: Using Pass-Through Mode With Ddc Routed To A Local Monitor

    Configuration and Operation, cont’d Using pass-through mode with DDC routed to a local monitor Set the EDID Minder switch to the off (down) position and the Default EDID switch to the off (down) position (see the figure at right). The position of the Remote DDC switch is not relevant.

  • Page 37: Using Pass-Through Mode With Ddc Routed To The Remote Display

    Using pass-through mode with DDC routed to the remote display This is the factory default setting. Although DDC can be routed to the remote display, there may be instances when the signals become corrupted or weak. In those cases, the source device may be unable to boot up correctly.

  • Page 38: Setup

    Configuration and Operation, cont’d Setup Determine which source will be used for the EDID information and configure the DDC switches appropriately (see pages 3-2 to 3-5). If necessary, use the EDID Minder to read and store information from a display (see pages 3-2 to 3-3).
  • Page 39 Insure all three twisted pair cables are firmly seated in the correct receptacles. No output signal or poor quality signal — Check the integrity of the UTP or STP cables between the transmitter and the receiver. The transmitter and receiver pair works with unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables.
  • Page 40 Configuration and Operation, cont’d Display device displays a flashing black or blue screen, snow, or other distortion — A device that is not High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) compliant may be receiving HDCP-encrypted signals. The DVI DL 201 Tx/Rx is compatible with HDCP signals only when the EDID Minder is disabled.
