READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE GEFENPRO 8X8 DVI DUAL LINK MATRIX WITH
•
The GefenPRO 8x8 DVI Dual Link Matrix with Push Button Controls only
supports DVI-D.
•
Before connect a computer to the DVI input, make sure to disable the 5V
on the DVI input. Otherwise, the video card on the computer may become
damaged.
•
The 8x8 DVI Dual Link Matrix with Push Button Controls does not support
HDCP content.
•
When the Matrix is used for the first time, make sure that a DVI monitor is
powered and connected to one of the DVI outputs on the 8x8 DVI Dual Link
Matrix with Push Button Controls before applying power. By default, the
Local EDID is read from the connected monitor and is copied to all 8 DVI
inputs once the Matrix has been turned on. If a monitor is not detected by
the Matrix at power-on, a default (internal) EDID of 640x480 will be used.
This functionality can be disabled using the Secure Local EDID function
through RS-232 control. See page 35 for more information.
•
There is no internal scaling in the 8x8 DVI Dual Link Matrix with Push Button
Controls. Each monitor attached to the Matrix must be able to display the
resolutions output by the source device(s). For maximum compatibility it is
recommended that only one common resolution be used by each source
device.
•
Advanced EDID features are accessible through the RS-232 serial command
set or using IP Control.
•
The Gefen Firmware Upgrade Tool is a free downloadable application
from Gefen that provides automatic download and installation of firmware
upgrades for this product.
IMPORTANT: If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-rack
assembly, do not block the ventilation holes of the enclosure.
