AUTO Video adjustment Operation
When the user reconnects the CAT5/E cable between the local and remote unit, the VGA-Extender will
start to adjust the remote video automatically in seconds.
For better video adjust result, the resolution of video source (usually: PC) should under or equal the
resolution “1280*1024@60”.
For example, when the user works with the VGA resolution 1600*1200@60, change the video
resolution to be 1280*1024@60 before install the VGA-Extender; then install the VGA-Extender.
And after the VGA-Extender finished the “auto video adjustment procedure”, change the video
resolution back to 1600*1200@60 and process “lock video setting”.
AUTO EDID Copy Operation
When the user reconnects the CAT.5 cable between the local and remote unit, the VGA-Extender will
start to copy EDID from remote Monitor to the memory of the
local unit.
And local unit will save the EDID content from the remote monitor even when the VGA-Extender
re-power.
The VGA-Extender will update the EDID content, when the remote monitor’s EDID is different with the
EDID in the memory of the VGA-Extender.
**note: When remote unit connects a new monitor, it needs re-connect the VGA cable between the
local unit and PC, so that some windows system (like Windows 7…etc)
then begin to require the EDID
content from local unit. After that, the windows update the monitor information.
*note: When there is no connection between the local and remote unit, the local unit will use the EDID
content of the local monitor to the PC.
