Info:
If a monitor's EDID was selected to be emulated (Output 1 to 8) the currently
emulated EDID will be changed on that(those) input(s) every time a new monitor is
connected. If the monitor is disconnected from the output, the latest EDID remains,
it will not be deleted from the input. This feature helps especially rental technicians
or system integrators to keep the source continuously transmitting the signal, and
adopt the system for new incoming display devices.
Info:
Power ON/OFF cycle will not affect the emulated EDID or other settings.
Info:
EDID switch procedure causes a status change and hence it is reported back to
the CONTROL SOFTWARE within 2-3 seconds.
Learn EDID from attached display device
The system is able to learn the EDID from the connected display device and store
it in one of the user programmable memory locations.
Step 1. Select the User Memory in one of the list window areas in the drop-down
menu.
Step 2. Select the EDID to be saved from the other list window.
Step 3. Drag and drop the selected EDID to the desired User Memory location.
Load EDID from file to memory
The system is able to learn and store EDID from a file located on the computer.
EDID are stored in *.dat files.
Step 1. Select the User Memory list window from one of the combo boxes, and
right click on the desired memory location. Then select "Load from file" from the
pop-up menu.
Step 2. Browse your hard drive to find the wanted EDID file in the pop-up window.
The software checks whether the selected file is a valid EDID file.
Step 3. Click Open in the browser window. After the process finished, "EDID
Upload completed" message appears.
Save EDID from memory to file
The control software is able to download EDID from the MATRIX SWITCHER and
to save it as an EDID file.
Step 1. Right click on the EDID to be saved.
Step 2. Click on the "Save to file" in the pop-up window.
Step 3. The Matrix Controller Software downloads the desired EDID and a save
dialog appears. It may take a few seconds to download the EDID. If the save dialog
is shown, type in the file name, and press Save button. After the process was
completed, an "EDID saved!" message confirms the command.
Synchronize EDID
By clicking "Synchronize EDID List" button the Lightware Matrix Controller software
rereads all EDID information from the connected MATRIX SWITCHER. During
normal operation it is not necessary to use this menu function because the matrix
switcher always reports every status change automatically.
Info:
There is always a small delay in responses. So if a new monitor is connected to the
output its new EDID is not shown immediately but in 2-3 seconds!
