READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE GEFENPRO 8X8 DVI DUAL LINK MATRIX
•
The 8x8 DVI Dual Link Matrix 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 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 Telnet / RS-232 control (see
page 23) or via the built-in Web interface (see page 61).
•
There is no internal scaling in the 8x8 DVI Dual Link Matrix. 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.
