It is necessary to make sure sources will provide a video and audio format compatible with all connected displays programmed to use them. To accomplish this, the B-120-HDMATRIX-8x8 includes built-in EDID management for each source input. The stored EDID is per source, so all display locations will see the same resolution and have the same audio format when that source is selected. -

3. Press ENTER 7.4. Embedded EDID Configuration In addition to the automatic configuration method, EDIDs in the B-120-HDMATRIX-8x8 can be set to inputs manually by selecting an EDID from the embedded list (default EDIDs programmed into the matrix switcher). The matrix switcher contains eight ‘embedded’ EDIDs that may be assigned to inputs. These EDIDs define groups of video and audio capabilities that are useful for configuring sources in most systems. -
