The MDV matrix switcher is built in the EDID data, which can communicate with the displayers and video source automatically. When the displayers or video sources are connected to the MDV matrix switcher, they will share the EDID/DDC information with the matrix switcher. The communication solution is like this: PTN Electronics Limited www.PTN-electronics.com...
The EDID refresh ports have the priority grade, ranging from output 1 to output 16 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. And, the output 16 is the least prior. PTN Electronics Limited www.PTN-electronics.com...
