update the EDID. The small square to the left of Input and Dual Link indicates:

• Grey – A valid input is not connected. Dual Link input not detected.
Device
The unique USB device name that is connected is displayed in the Device group. It is possible to associate
a more user friendly name such as “Main Video Wall”. The friendly name is stored in non-volatile storage
on the dL8 and can to help identify the device during future configurations. Specific devices connected to
your PC can be selected using the Select Device.. command on the File Menu. The dL8’s will be listed by
the USB Device or by a previously configured friendly name.
