VM-400HDCP - Acquiring the EDID 

 

To acquire the EDID from Output 3

:  

1.  Press the EDID SELECT button repeatedly until OUTPUT 3 LED flashes.  

2.  Press and hold the EDID READ button until the LED stops flashing.  

The EDID from Output 3 is now stored at the input.  
Pressing the EDID SELECT button briefly once causes the relevant LEDs to 
indicate which EDID is stored at the input as follows: 

 

The MONITOR LED flashes—the EDID from MONITOR was the last 
acquired 

 

OUTPUT 1 LED flashes—the EDID from OUTPUT 1 was the last 
acquired 

 

OUTPUT 2 LED flashes—the EDID from OUTPUT 2 was the last 
acquired, and so on  

 

All OUTPUT LEDs flash—the default EDID was the last acquired  

 

All OUTPUT LEDs light—the Auto-Mix EDID was the last acquired 

The EDID acquired is a weighted average of all the connected outputs. For 

example, if several displays with different resolutions are connected to the 

outputs, the acquired EDID supports all the resolutions, as well as other 

parameters included in the EDID.
