By default, the device transmits the factory preset DDC
information to the CPU. This information is suitable in most cases.
Downloading of the DDC information of the console monitor can
be performed during normal operation.
For special requirements, DDC information can be retrieved and
uploaded as a binary file to both the CPU Unit and the CON Unit.
Connect your computer with a USB mini cable to the service port
of the CPU Unit or CON Unit. The data area of the unit is now
accessible as a flash drive „Extender“.
Uploading DDC Information
Copy the binary file containing your specific DDC information
to the flash drive of the CPU Unit or CON Unit. The current DDC
information is replaced.
Retrieving DDC Information
Copy the file „DDC-EDID.bin“ on the flash drive of the CPU Unit
to your computer. To open the binary file, you have to install a
suitable software, e.g. WinDDCwrite, on your computer. Contact
your dealer for this purpose.
Reset to Factory DDC Information
Delete the file called „DDC-EDID.bin“ on the flash drive of the CPU
Unit. By deleting this file, the factory DDC Information is restored.
