Page 7: Operation Of The Edid Management
Before connection, please read the command or relevant demand in the user manual care- fully In some cases, maybe there is balanced in source signal end but unbalanced in the destination end If in a nonstandard case, it is done to connect balanced for the balanced end and unbalanced for unbalanced end But if in a standard one, the converter must be used to switch the signals as the same, balanced or unbalanced Operation of the EDID management MXHD matrix series switchers are manufactured with full EDID management built-in the database The EDID management can automatically handshake, or through manual exchange and factory restore EDID Automatic Handshake: • The MXDV matrix switcher has built-in EDID data, which can communicate with the displays and video source automatically When the displays or video sources are connected to the MXDV matrix switcher, they will share the EDID/DDC information with the matrix switcher • The MXHD1616A EDID database includes most popular displaying data, but not all the dis play data because of the capability and firmware limitation So, we can manually refresh the EDID data to update the EDID database EDID Handshake Priority: • The EDID refresh ports have the priority grade, ranging from output 1 to output 8 in priority order It means the output 1 is the most prior to exchange the EDID data, and then the output 2 is the second prior to exchange the EDID data And, the output 8 is the least prior • When the user carries the EDID erase/refresh function, it will detect the output priority and exchange the EDID data with the available most prior output port... -
Page 8: Operation Of The Control Panel
EDID Management by RS232 Commands • When you need to refresh the EDID data of the MXHD1616A matrix switcher, we can manually exchange the EDID data by sending the RS232 command “EDIDMOn ” (Please notice the text- transform, and the dot in behind ) • When the “EDIDMOn ” is sent, the MXHD1616A matrix switcher will copy the EDID data from the most prior output port It means the MXHD1616A will erase the old EDID data, and fully copy the EDID data from the displayer, which is connected to the most prior output port • When we send the “EDIDMInit ” to the MXHD1616A matrix switcher, it will recover the factory default EDID data • When the “EDIDMOn ” or “EDIDMInit ” is correctly sent, all the connected displayers will be blank for 2~3 seconds and recover again And, the MXHD1616A matrix switcher will send out a RS232 feedback command “EDIDMOn ” or “EDIDMInit ” • If all these symbols works, it means the action is taken EDID Management by Buttons • When you need to recover the ex-factory default EDID data set, we can send the RS232 command or press the buttons of the front panel/IR remote to make it work • Keep pressing the button “<-” for 30 seconds, all the LED of “<-” will be on for 10 seconds It enters the EDID setting status • And, pressing “Input 2” button and “Undo” button All the outputs will be blank for 3 seconds, to... - Page 9 “All ” • The button to transfer one input channel to all output channels • Example: To transfer input1 to all outputs • Operation: Press buttons in this order: “1”, “All” “Though” • The button to transfer input to the corresponding output • Example: To transfer input 2 to output 2 • Operation: Press the button in this order: “2”, “Though” “ <---” • Backspace button: To backspace the latest input button • Example: To cancel input 3 • Operation: Press button in this order: “3”, “<--- ” “UNDO” • Undo button: To resume to the status before the command just performed • Example: To cancel you latest switching status: input 3 through output 5 • Operation: Press the button in this order: “3” input area, “5” output area, “UNDO” Command Format of the Switching Operation • With the front control panel, the switcher could be control directly and rapidly by pressing the but- tons under below format • “Menu” +“Input Channel” +“Output Channel 1” • “Menu”: “AV”, “Audio”, “Video” • “Input Channel”: Fill with the number of input channel to be controlled • “Output Channel”: Fill with the number of output channels to be controlled Video Audio 1 Press the button for switching mode “AV” for the switching mode of the...
