About EDID
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is
data generated from each display in the system to
communicate the capabilities of the device (720p, 2ch
Audio, 1080p, 7.1ch Audio).
For communication between devices to be made,
and successful connection achieved, devices must
both request and send the required information. For
example, a display will communicate 1080p capability
with 2ch audio, which the source device will accept and
output the correct format for the display. Problems can
arise when different types of devices such as displays,
sources and amplifiers are used within a system, making
communication between them that much more difficult;
sometimes resulting in connection problems.
In such instances EDID needs to be streamlined or guided
for all devices to work together, with equipment such as
the MX-PP-POH and RX-70-IR-POH display receivers
perfectly placed to handle this process as communication
between display and source is the most important in the
system. The effective control and management of EDID is
essential for the success of any integration, with this being
achieved in most cases using the default setting on the
matrix and receivers.
15. Before EDID
Adjustments
Communication between sink, matrix and source devices
should be automatically negotiated with the EDID DIP
switch set to the default Normal Output (OFF) position.
However, should device communication or compatibility
issues be encountered during installation, please refer to
the EDID DIP settings below.
If the maximum capabilities of the display are known, for
example 1080p 3D with 2ch stereo audio, the DIP switch
setting should be adjusted manually for matching EDID to
be sent to the matrix.
If the specification of the display is not known, simply
copy the EDID from the display to matrix through the
HDMI connection by setting all switches to the EDID Copy
or Force Output (ON) positions and power cycling the
matrix for the DIP setting to become active.
16. EDID Presets
Copy EDID from the HDMI sink
device to the currently selected
input port
For example, when output-3 select
input-1, the EDID of output-3 will be copied to input-1.
(An HDMI output takes precedence over a UTP output. If
a copy fails, the EDID will remain the same.)
