Page 20: Edid Configuration
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-520-MTRX-230-8x8 / B-520-MTRX-230-6x4+2 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. -
Page 21: Display Setup
7.4. Embedded EDID Configuration In addition to the automatic configuration method, EDIDs in the B-520-MTRX-230-8x8 / B-520-MTRX-230-6x4+2 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. -
Page 22: How To Set Embedded Edid For A Single Input
Explanation of Embedded EDIDs Video Resolution in the Embedded EDIDs is the highest resolution a connected source will output. That is, if the source is capable of 1080P@60 it will be required by EDIDs 1-6 to provide that resolution. However, if the source is only capable of 1080i it will output 1080i, etc. -
Page 23: How To Learn Edid To A Single Input
When to Use Learned EDIDs • An older display does not work properly with any of the embedded EDIDs. • When the source is a PC it may be necessary to use a learned EDID. • Learning EDID to a single input 7.5.1. -
Page 24: Advanced Setup Using The Configuration Utility
This setting controls the operation of the front panel IR receiver built into the B-520-MTRX-230-8x8 / B-520-MTRX-230-6x4+2. This should be disabled if using the SYSTEM IR IN port to control the matrix switcher via IR, or if the matrix switcher is missing or receiving extra commands during use (stray IR interfering with the port). -
