Programmer’s Reference Manual
Section 2. About EDID memory Page 11 / 43
2. About EDID memory
EDID memory is non-volatile and consists of four blocks, each for different purpose.
These blocks are:
Factory preset EDIDs
User saved EDIDs
Dynamic EDID (EDID of last connected sink on the DDC output port)
Emulated EDIDs (EDID currently emulated on a specific input port)
EDIDs are numbered from 1 in each block, and they can be referred as the first letter of
the block name, and the number of the desired EDID. This way F02 refers to the second
factory preset EDID, and D01 refers to the display device’s EDID on output 1.
The memory structure is as follows:
F01 .. F10 ...........................................................Factory Preset EDIDs
U01 .. U08 .............................................User programmable memories
D01 ........................................... Last attached monitor’s EDID (output)
E01 .. E02....................................................... Emulated EDIDs (inputs)
All EDIDs (including factory preset; user programmable memories; EDID at other inputs;
and EDID at output) can be switched and emulated at any of the inputs.
Info: The factory EDIDs (Fxx) are factory preprogrammed and cannot be modified. These are
the most commonly used resolutions.
Info: UMXTP-TX100R can handle both 128 Byte EDID and 256 Byte extended EDID
structures.
Info: The attached monitor’s EDID is stored automatically, until a new monitor is attached to
that particular output. In case of powering the unit off, the last attached monitor’s EDID
remains in non-volatile memory even is the monitor is unconnected.
Warning! Emulated EDIDs can be switched with the rotary switches only.
2.1. EDID types
Most of the factory preset EDIDs include only one resolution. This is to force the
connected source to give a signal with the needed resolution. However there are
Universal EDIDs as well which allow many resolutions.
The factory EDIDs are divided into groups regarding their type. Some EDIDs are
supporting DVI only, some support HDMI, and some are for analog VGA signals.
Analog EDIDs can be used for VGA (RGBH) input port.
DVI EDIDs does not support embedded audio.
HDMI EDIDs support embedded audio. These EDIDs –include Universal HDMI EDID -
indicate that any audio format is accepted (PCM, Dolby, DTS, etc.).

3. Operation modes
There are two kinds of operations for the unit regarding the serial port: you can control
the unit or use the bidirectional serial link through the DDC CAT cable with a compatible
HDMI-TP receiver.
1. In the first case the CPU in the transmitter can receive commands and send
responses either to and from the own serial port or to and from the serial port on the
receiver unit through the DDC line (2nd CAT cable).

Programmer’s Reference Manual
Section 3. Operation modes Page 13 / 43
2. In case of the second mode the TX lines of the processor are in HiZ state and the
serial connectors on the transmitter and on the receiver are linked together through
the DDC CAT cable.
Figure 3-2. UMX-TP-TX100R in PASSTROUGH mode
Mentioning the facts above is important as there are two commands to set the operation:
{RS232=CONTROL}
Sets the mode when you can control the unit.
{RS232=PASS}
Sets the mode when the serial connector is used as a
serial link towards the receiver unit.
{RS232=?}
Queries the actual state, the response will be
(RS232=CONTROL) or (RS232=PASS).
For more information see section 4.4.5 on page 18.
Info: UMX-TP-TX100R stores the RS232 working mode and starts the saved one after reboot.
The default baud rate for control is 57600, the command to set the baud rate can be the
following:
{RS232BAUD=9600}
{RS232BAUD=19200}
{RS232BAUD=38400}
{RS232BAUD=57600}
{RS232BAUD=115200}
Of course in PASS mode the speed can be anything, but for changing and querying the
mode the previously set baud rate must be applied for the sent commands.
For more information see section 4.4.2 on page 17.

Response
(RS232=<mode>)CrLf
←
(RS232=CONTROL)CrLf
Legend: <mode> Two kinds of operation modes can be:
<CONTROL> The CPU in the transmitter can receive
commands and send responses.
<PASS> The serial connectors on the transmitter
and on the receiver are linked together.
Explanation: The device can be controlled via RS232 port.
4.4.6. Query the RS232 operation mode
Description: This command queries the current RS232 operation mode.

→
{rs232=?}
Response
(RS232=<mode>)CrLf
←
(RS232=CONTROL)CrLf
Legend: Please read section 4.4.5 on page 18.
Explanation: The device can be controlled via RS232 port.
4.4.7. Count HDCP keys
Description: If there is an HDCP source on the HDMI input of the device, the device can
ask the source whether it can handle <num> piece of sink devices.
Format
Example
Command
{:HDCPTEST<in>@<num>}
→
{:hdcptest1@8}
Response
(HDCPTEST=SUCCESS)CrLf
←
(HDCPTEST=SUCCESS)CrLf
Legend: <in> input port where the key counting will be executed. This input
port must be selected.
<num> the number of the HDCP keys
Explanation: The source on the 1st input can handle 8 HDCP sink devices.
4.4.8. Clear HDCP key cache
Description: The device stores the HDCP keys from the connected devices. These
cached keys can be cleared with this command.
Format
Example
Command
{:HDCPRESET}
→
{:hdcpreset}
Response
(Done)CrLf
←
(Done)CrLf
Explanation: HDCP key cache is cleared.
Info: This function is useful when too many keys were cached and a connected source device
cannot accept so many keys.

→
{rst}
Response
(Booting…)CrLf
(<name>●Ready!)CrLf
←
←
(Booting…)CrLf
(UMX-TP-TX100R Ready!)
Legend: <name> is the type of the extender
Explanation: The extender reboots and sends a message when it is ready.
Info: The response can be seen only if the connection to the extender is still alive.
4.4.10. View error list
Description: Shows the basic error list since last boot up.
Format
Example
Command
{ELIST=?}
→
{elist=?}
Response

p:6 o:1)CrLf
…
(ELIST#2 Notice READY
p:0 o:1)CrLf
Legend: <num>: line number
<elevel>: NOTICE = Not an error. Initialization information.
WARNING = Possible problem without influencing normal
operation.
MATTER = Problem that may lead to further errors.
ERROR = Serious error. Must report to support.
FATAL = Fatal error. Normal operation is not possible.
<code>: short name for type of log entry
<param>: technical parameter
<occ>: occurrence number for this type of log entry
Explanation: There are no errors only standard notices that occur on boot up.
Info: The error list can contain NOTICEs and WARNINGs under normal operation. These
entries do not mean that there is any problem with the matrix!

→
{ELEVELSEND#1=?}
Response
(ELEVELSEND#<p>=
