8 - EDID DIP switches - select the EDID management mode. 9 - DC Power Input – 12vDC/5a power inlet. 10 - IR Extended Input – input for extending the local IR input. IR Remote The included IR remote performs routing functions available on the front panel of the DIGI-44B.
Rack Mounting Instructions The DIGI-44B requires one rack unit (1 RU) of space. At least 2 inches of free air space is required on both sides of the DIGI-44B for proper side ventilation. Avoid mounting the DIGI-44B near a power amplifier or any other source of significant heat.
The matrix also features an EDID copy mode that can be used when other EDID’s do not meet the installation requirements. The default EDID for the DIGI-44B is 1080p with stereo audio. All EDID modes are outlined in the table below:...
