EDID Modes
The diagram below illustrates the 4-position DIP switch bank (containing 4 small
white toggle switches as shown). The functions of the switches are as follows:
DIP SWITCH Function
1 IR Channel
2 IR Channel

EDID Mode
4 EDID Lock Mode
Use DIP switch 3 to set the desired EDID mode. (UP is On)
How to set the two EDID Modes:
1. Local EDID Mode ON (Switch 3 = OFF, FACTORY DEFAULT SETTING)
• During power-on, the connected display’s EDID is copied to all four local
EDID storage locations at once. EDID stored in local memory is then
passed to all input sources.
• The EDID stored in the local locations can be overwritten with another
EDID from the following locations:
• Built-in EDID memory bank (up to 7 EDID records can be stored)
• EDID collected directly from the input display upon power-up.
2. Local EDID Mode OFF (Switch 3 = ON)
• The DDC signal of the connected display is routed directly to each input
source. Each time a new source device is selected, EDID is transmitted
from the attached display to the currently selected input source. (This
mode will successfully pass HDCP signals.)
3. EDID Lock Mode (DIP Switch 4 = ON)
• Locks the last stored EDID, even if the unit is power-cycled. To store a
new EDID, do the following:
1. Power-down the Switcher and set DIP Switch 4 to the OFF position.
2. Connect the display to the DVI output port then power-on the Switcher.
3. Set DIP Switch 4 to the ON position to lock the EDID.
