NOTICE
1. While connecting a new monitor to the splitter, experiencing a short period of time no display
may be expected. Automatic EDID learning will analyze the newly connected monitor to see if
the EDID for the DVI input is necessary to update!
2. For long range high definition DVI transmission applications, please adopt CAT5/6 cable based
DVI extenders.
3. For firmware update through USB, users MUST first turn off the power, plug USB cable
connected to your PC, and then power up the module! In this setup, the power LED indicator will
NOT blink, and this is normal! Execute the attached or download EPFlash.exe, and the following
window will pop up. Click on "OpenFile" button to direct to the new firmware HEX file, and keep
PORT at USB 0! Meantime, keep "Program With Verification" selected, and then click on "START"
button on the bottom of the window! Wait for seconds until the update process is completed!
After firmware update is successfully accomplished, please unplug USB cable and power off the
splitter!
