The reported EDID drop down allows selection of the EDID that the encoder will report
to the source device. Selecting Transparent mode reports the EDID from the currently
connected monitor. If no monitor is connected, the EDID from the last connected monitor is
used.
EDID from previously connected displays is stored and may be selected.
Alternatively, you may select one of the fixed EDIDs listed in the drop‑down list. Available
EDID files are shown in the

Supported EDID Modes

tables (see page 122).

Video input — channel selection

Use the drop‑down list to set the

Input Channel

mode to

auto

,

chan-1

(digital), or

chan-2

(analog).

auto

causes the HDMI input to be selected whenever a digital

source is detected.

chan-1

selects the HDMI input.

chan-2

selects the RGB input.

NOTE: Both the analog and digital inputs support full auto‑detect of the input signal

resolution and frame rate. No user configuration is necessary.

Video input — HDCP authorization

Select or deselect the

Enable HDCP

check box.

This allows HDCP negotiation to be turned on or off. If the source requires HDCP and this
setting is disabled, no image is displayed on the pass‑through monitor and no video signal
is streamed.

Streams — multicast enable

Select the

Multicast Enable

check box if RTP multicast source streaming is required.

Otherwise, ensure the box is deselected, to enable RTP unicast.
If

Multicast Enable

is selected, a dialogue

is displayed asking for a multicast address (see
figure to the right). This must be obtained from
your network administrator.

Streams — New Export Stream

The

New Export Stream

button can be used to configure streaming between devices that

are controlled by different system controllers. The VNM Enterprise Controller fully supports
this feature and Extron recommends that it be used as the system controller if this function
is required.
