2. Connect the HDMI OUTPUT connectors
1
to up to 4 HDMI acceptors
as follows:
 OUTPUT 1 to display device 1 (for example, a plasma display)
 OUTPUT 2 to display device 2 (for example, a plasma or LCD
display)
 OUTPUT 3 to display device 3 (for example, an LCD TV)
 OUTPUT 4 to display device 4 (for example, a plasma display)
3. Connect the power adapter to the device and to the mains electricity
(not shown in
Figure 3).
4. If required, acquire the EDID (see Section
5.2).
5.2 Acquiring the EDID
Initially
2
the VM-4HC operates with the factory default EDID
3
stored in the
non-volatile memory. The source reads the EDID from the device when the
device is plugged in or powered on.
The EDID
4
can be acquired from:
• One of the outputs
• The default EDID
• Up to four connected outputs using the Auto-mix Mode
5
Repeatedly pressing the EDID SELECT button cycles through the EDID
sources in the following order
6
:
• Output 1 (Output 1 LED lights)
• Output 2 (Output 2 LED lights)
• Output 3 (Output 3 LED lights)
• Output 4 (Output 4 LED lights)
• Default EDID (all LEDs light)
• Auto-Mix EDID (the LEDs flash in a running sequence)
1 As required. Up to four outputs can be connected. Not all outputs need to be connected
2 This is usually done only once when the unit is being set up in an installation. Once acquired, the EDID is saved in non-
volatile memory and further acquisition is not necessary
3 The VM-4HC reads the EDID, which is stored in the non-volatile memory
4 This is usually done only once when the machine is being set up in an installation. Once acquired, the EDID is saved in non-
volatile memory and further acquisition is not necessary
5 The EDID acquired is a weighted average of all the connected outputs. For example, if several displays with different
resolutions are connected to the outputs, the acquired EDID supports all the resolutions, as well as other parameters included
in the EDID
6 If you attempt to acquire the EDID from an output that is not connected the default EDID is acquired
