The device (configuration) cloning of MMX4x2 series matrix is a simple method that eliminates the need to
repeatedly configure certain devices to have identical (non-factory) settings. If the devices are installed in
the same type of system multiple times then it is enough to set up only one device to fit the user's needs and
then copy those settings to the others, thus saving time and resources.

3.11.3. Advanced EDID Management
Factory Preset EDIDs
The factory EDIDs (F1-F120) are factory preprogrammed and cannot be modified. These are the most
common resolutions. They are specially provided to force graphic cards to output only the exact pixel
resolution and refresh rate.
Universal EDID allows multiple resolutions including all common VESA defined resolutions. The use of
universal EDID is recommended for fast and easy system setup.

MMX4x2 series – User's Manual
Sources and Destinations
The EDID memory consists of four parts:
▪ Factory EDID list shows the pre-programmed EDIDs (F1-F120).
Dynamic EDID list shows the display device connected to the device's outputs. The unit stores the last
▪
display devices' EDID on either output, so there is an EDID shown even if there is no display device
attached to the output port at the moment.
User memory locations (U1 – U14) can be used to save custom EDIDs.
▪
▪ Emulated EDID list shows the currently emulated EDID for the inputs. The source column displays the
memory location that the current EDID was routed from.
The source reads the EDID from the Emulated EDID memory on the INPUT port. Any EDID from any of the
User/Factory/Dynamic EDID lists can be copied to the user memory.
There are two types of emulation: static and dynamic.
Static EDID emulation: an EDID from the Factory or User EDID list is selected. Thus, the Emulated EDID
▪
remains the same until the user emulates another EDID.
▪ Dynamic EDID emulation: it can be enabled by selecting D1 or D2 EDID memory. The attached monitor's
EDID is copied to the input; if a new monitor is attached to the output, the emulated EDID changes
automatically.

3.11.4. Remote Firmware Upgrade of Connected Lightware Devices
INFO: This feature is available for MMX4x2-HT200 model only.
The firmware of the Lightware TPS devices can be upgraded individually by Lightware Device Updater (LDU)
software. MMX4x2 -HT200 matrix contains a feature which allows having a faster and more comfortable
firmware upgrade process. When the firmware of the connected extenders has to be upgraded the TPS
connection is necessary towards the extenders – nothing else. The LDU will find the connected devices and
can upgrade them.
