Datapath Vision - Manual (Page 51)

It should be noted that the driver installation program includes an automatic firmware update, if required.
Therefore, prior to installing the application and driver, ensure that LK1 is fitted.
Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) - Disable Links
EDID is data provided by a display monitor and sent to the graphics device detailing monitors capabilities
thereby enabling a system to identify the type of monitor that is attached.
The graphics device installed on your machine will see the card as a monitor and will expect to receive the
EDID data from the card.
However, in rare circumstances it may be necessary that the VisionSD4+1/SD4+1S does not report an EDID
of any kind. In this instance EDID support can be disabled by removing links LK3.
Removing the LK3 link on the VisionSD4+1/SD4+1S card will disable the EDID function on the DVI/RGB
channel.
