EDID Mode Selection
The VS1814T / VS1818T offers an easy and flexible EDID Mode selection
method using the rear panel EDID Mode Switch.
Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is a data format that contains a
display's basic information and is used to communicate with the video source/
system.
Simply press the EDID Mode pushbutton to toggle between the Default and
other EDID Settings (0~7), as follows:
0 (Default) – EDID is set to the ATEN default configuration
1 (Port 1) – Implements the EDID of the connected display to Port 1, and
passes it to the video source
2 (Auto) - Implements the EDID of all connected displays. The VS1814T
/ VS1818T uses the best resolution for all displays
3 (Learn) - Uses the EDID configuration acquired from the EDID
Learning process.
4 ~ 7- Reserved.
You can also select the EDID Mode using RS-232 commands. See RS-232
Commands, page 13 for details.
Installing the RS-232 Controller
In order to use the RS-232 serial interface to attach a high-end controller (such
as a PC) to the VS1814T / VS1818T, use a serial cable such as a modem cable.
The end connecting to the VS1814T / VS1818T should have a 9-pin male
connector. Connect this to the serial interface on the rear of the VS1814T /
VS1818T.
See RS-232 Commands, page 13 for details.
