EDID LEARN

The KVM switch is designed to learn a connected monitor’s EDID upon power up. In the event of connecting a new monitor to the KVM a power recycle is required.
The KVM switch will indicate the unit’s EDID learn process is active by flashing the front panel’s LEDs in sequential order. Starting with the LED above button “1” on the front panel, each LED will flash green for approximately 10 seconds upon beginning the EDID learn. Once all the LEDs stop flashing, the LEDs will cycle and the EDID learn will be complete.

If the KVM switch has more than one video board (such as dual-head and quad- head models), then the unit will continue to learn the EDIDs of the connected monitors and indicate the progress of the process by flashing the next port selection green and blue push-button LEDs respectively.
A monitor must be connected to the video output port located in the console space at the back of the KVM switch during the EDID learn process.
If the read EDID from the connected monitor is identical to the current stored EDID in the KVM switch, then the EDID learn function will be skipped.
