6 Acquiring the EDID
The VM-1H4C is programmed with a default EDID (see Section 9 ). This lets you
connect the power before having to connect one of the acceptors. To change this
default EDID, you must acquire the new EDID from a display device.
You can acquire the EDID from:

One of the connected outputs (the relevant output LED lights)

The default EDID (all output LEDs light)

Up to four connected outputs using the Auto-mix Mode (all output LEDs light
in a running pattern)
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.
To acquire the EDID:
1. Connect the output(s) from which you want to acquire the EDID, (see
Section
5
).
2. Press the EDID SELECT button briefly.
The device enters the EDID programming mode.
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.
