DVI-7435-QSG-01 / October.2013
EDID Management
To ensure compatibility with all the end-points in an AV system, fixing the EDID seen by the source
device is recommended. The DVI-7435 unit has an internal memory that can store up to 100 EDID
values, which can be recalled by using two rotary address switches. Factory preset EDID values are
listed on the top of the unit and are stored in addresses (#01 – #49). EDID addresses (#51 – #98) are
user-programmable. Addresses (#30 – #45) and the Universal EDID address (#49) contain EDID values
that support various HDMI embedded audio formats. Addresses (#00) and (#99) contain the EDIDs
from the current or most recently connected display on OUTPUTS 1 and 2, respectively. Address (#50)
is reserved for factory use.
Selecting an EDID
1.)
Turn the EDID ADDRESS rotary switches to the desired position. The available factory preset
EDIDs are listed on the top of the device.
2.)
The EDID Status LED provides helpful feedback:
Red:
An empty memory or invalid EDID was selected.
Green:
A valid EDID has been selected.
3.)
The selected EDID is reported to the source device connected to the DVI / HDMI INPUT. Note that
it may be necessary to re-boot the source device in order that it recognize the new EDID.
Learning EDID
1.)
Turn the EDID ADDRESS rotary switches to the desired memory location where the EDID of the
attached display is to be stored using address settings (#51 – #98).
2.)
Connect the desired display device to the DVI OUTPUT 1 connector on the DVI-7435. EDID
Learning is not available on OUTPUT 2.
3.)
Press and hold the LEARN EDID button for approximately 3 seconds.
4.)
The EDID Status LED will blink to provide feedback:
Red:
The learn process failed to acquire an EDID from OUTPUT1.
Green:
The learn process successfully acquired an EDID from OUTPUT1.
USB Connection
The acquired EDID can be modified to meet application requirements using DVIGear’s Advanced EDID Editor
software. For further information please contact DVIGear Technical Support at [email protected].
