EDID menu
Advanced EDID Management can be accessed by clicking on the EDID menu. This view
is divided in two segments. The upper segment can be opened by clicking the green arrow.
This segment contains the EDID editor. The lower segment is the EDID router area. This
consists of two list windows, which can display a selected part of the EDID memory.
Info
When the user enters the menu for the first time, the software starts to download the whole
EDID list from the matrix. It may take about 30-40 seconds.
5.4.1. EDID Router operation
After the list is downloaded, the current status is shown. The EDID memory consists of four
parts. Any memory part can be displayed on either side by using the drop down lists.
The Emulated EDID List shows the currently emulated EDIDs for each input. It contains
the resolution, manufacturer and vendor name of the EDID reported to the sources for each
input separately. The source column displays the memory location that the current EDID
was routed from.. The rows with red background are EDIDs routed from dynamic memory.
The Last attached Monitor's EDID List contains the resolution, manufacturer and vendor
name of the display devices connected to matrix switcher's output. The matrix remembers
the last display device's EDID, so there is an EDID shown even if there is no device
attached to the router's output at the moment.
The Factory EDID List shows the factory memory locations (01# - 89#) with
preprogrammed EDID.
The User EDID List shows the memory locations (1# - 50#) which can be used by the user
to save custom EDIDs.
Any DVI source reads the EDID from the Emulated EDID memory for the corresponding
port. The user can copy an EDID from any of the three EDID lists to the desired input's
memory location. This is called EDID routing. There are two types of the emulation: static
and dynamic.
