EDID setting.
5. Press the SET button for 3 seconds to write the EDID to the corresponding
memory as indicated by the LED.
6. When the STATUS LED illuminates in green, the EDID learning has been
successful. If the STATUS LED is red, the learning failed.
To Write the EDID
1. Connect a display to the HDMI output.
2. Set the Emulator/Bypass 2 switch to Emulator first then set the Rd/Wr 1
switch to the Wr (Write) position.
3. Press the Select button repeatedly to cycle through to the required Learned/

successful. If the STATUS LED is red, the writing has failed. If the STATUS
LED did NOT blink and is red, then the display’s EDID is not writable.
Warning: Once the writing is complete, the original EDID will be erased. We
recommend you back up the original EDID settings by storing them in the unit
prior to performing the overwrite.
