EDID MANAGEMENT
Continued from the previous page
NOTE: All other HDMI capable devices/displays connected to the output
ports MUST be compatible with at least one resolution/audio format specifi ed
in this EDID. It is recommended to set, on the source device, a common
resolution and audio format shared by all attached devices/displays. This is
to ensure a compatible signal is output to all connected devices/displays.
-To use this mode, set the EDID Mode Switch on the front panel to the INT
position.
This mode should be used in most scenarios.
Audio Channel Selection
The Mini 1:8 Splitter for HDMI 1.3 features a switch that will modify the supported
audio formats listed in the pre-programmed EDID. This feature is useful for
limiting the output of the source device to either 2 or multi-channel audio formats.
NOTE: This selector switch will only affect the pre-programmed EDID in the
INTERNAL (INT) EDID Mode.
The Mini 1:8 Splitter for HDMI 1.3 can use either of the following settings for
audio format support:
1. 2 Channel: This setting will limit the audio formats listed in the pre-
programmed EDID to 2 channel LPCM. For a full listing of the audio formats
in this mode please see page 9.
-To use this mode, set the Audio Selection Switch on the front panel to the 2
CH position.
This mode is useful in scenarios where all output devices/displays are HDTV
monitors that only support 2 channel LPCM. This setting will ensure that all
connected devices will receive and produce sound.
2. Multi-Channel: This setting will enable all common audio formats in the
pre-programmed EDID. For a full listing of the audio formats in this mode
please see page 9.
-To use this mode, set the Audio Selection Switch on the front panel to the
Multi CH position.
This mode is useful in scenarios where the output devices/displays are
varying devices (i.e. HDTV display and audio receivers). Please note that
sound may not be heard from all output devices/displays if a shared common
audio format is not used by the source device.
