EDID effectively tells the source what the system is capable of handling, devices without robust EDID control just have to hope the source behaves how we want it to. With the AC-MX1616-AUHD-HDBT you control the sources: To Set the EDID, just choose EDID from the "Home Screen" and then select the INPUT you want to set. Finally toggle through the EDIDs until you get the one you want.

AC-MX1616-AUHD-HDBT RS-232 and TCP/IP Control: The AC-MX1616-AUHD-HDBT can be controlled with either RS-232 or TCP/IP commands. Certain switching or format configurations can only be done using these commands. We recommend using either the MyUART (RS-232 - free) or Hercules (TCP/IP - free) apps as they are very easy to use for sending commands to the machine.
