5 Operating the VM-114H2C
This section describes how to use the VM-114H2C.
5.1 Acquiring the EDID
Each input on the VM-114H2C has a factory default EDID loaded (see Section ‎9 ).
This lets you connect the power before having to connect one of the acceptors.
The VM-114H2C reads the EDID, which is stored in the non-volatile memory.
You can acquire the EDID from:
This is usually done only once, when the machine is being set up in an installation. Once
acquired, the EDID is saved in non-volatile memory and further acquisition is not necessary.

One output (the relevant output LED flashes)

The default EDID (all output LEDs flash)

Up to four connected outputs using the Auto-mix Mode (all output LEDs light)
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
To acquire the EDID:
1. Connect the output(s) from which you want to acquire the EDID.
2. Press the EDID SELECT button briefly.
The device enters the EDID programming mode. The last acquired EDID is
indicated by the lit LED (for example, if Output LED 2 is lit, the EDID
acquired was from Output 2).
3. Press the EDID SELECT button repeatedly until the required EDID is
indicated based on the patterns described above.
4. Press the EDID READ button.
The relevant LEDs flash in a pattern for a few seconds as follows:

Slowly and then no longer lights. The EDID was successfully read.

Quickly and then no longer lights. The EDID was not read and the
default EDID was stored.
