Firmware Upgrades
The XtremeRGB-II card allow firmware upgrades to be completed on site rather than returning the
card to EMS. Whenever a firmware upgrade is performed, LK1 MUST BE FITTED on the
XtremeRGB-II. To perform the upgrade, follow the step-by-step instructions provided by the upgrade
application.
In the unlikely event that something goes wrong during the upgrade process (e.g. System power
outage) it is possible to revert to the factory settings by powering down the system, temporarily
removing LK1 then powering up the system with the link removed. Once the system has rebooted,
replace the LK1 link (whilst the system is powered up) and restart the firmware upgrade process.
It should be noted that the latest driver installation program includes an automatic firmware update, if
required. Therefore, prior to installing the application and driver, ensure that LK1 is fitted.
Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) - Disable Links
EDID is data provided by a display monitor and sent to the graphics device detailing monitors
capabilities thereby enabling a system to identify the type of monitor that is attached.
The graphics device installed on your machine will see the card as a monitor and will expect to
receive the EDID data from the card.
However, in rare circumstances it may be necessary that the XtremeRGB-II does not report an EDID
of any kind. In this instance EDID support can be disabled by removing links LK2 or LK3.
Removing the LK2 link on the XtremeRGB-II card will disable the EDID function on Channel 1 and
removing LK3 will disable the EDID function on Channel 2.
