Note: In default status, 4 IR OUT sockets correspond with 4 HDMI INPUTS. When you
convert an HDMI input to an output, the corresponding IR OUT will be switched
synchronously.
2) To convert an input to several outputs:
Operation: “input” + “output” + “output” +… + “ENTER”
Example: Switch input 2 to output 2, 4
Note: Indicators of the pressed buttons will blink green for three times if the conversion
is done, then it will be off. If the conversion failed, they will be off immediately.
4.1.2 EDID Management
MUH44TPR2-N features EDID management to maintain compatibility between all
devices. It can be controlled via EDID learning and EDID invoking.
EDID Learning (from output):
All input ports learn EDID data from one output port
Operation: Press “EDID”, “ALL”+“OUTPUTS”+“ENTER”
Example: All input ports learn EDID data from output 4
Note: Indicators of the pressed buttons will blink green for three times if the conversion
is done, then it will be off. If the conversion failed, they will be off immediately.
EDID invoking:
There are five types of embedded EDID data. The chart below illustrates the detailed
information of the embedded EDID data:
No. EDID Data
1 1080P 2D 2CH
2 1080P 3D 2CH
3 1080P 2D Multichannel
4 1080P 3D Multichannel
5 3840x2160 2D(30Hz)
Press and hold “EDID” for 3 seconds to enter EDID invoking mode, in this mode, use
output buttons 1/2 to switch among the 5 embedded EDID data. Then press “ENTER” to
confirm invoking.
Format: Press and hold “EDID” for 3 seconds, “INPUTS”+“OUTPUTS 1/2”+“ENTER”.
Operations:
Invoke embedded EDID data for one input
Operation: Press “EDID” (hold for 3 seconds to enter in EDID setting status),
“INPUTS”+“OUTPUTS”+“ENTER”.
Example: Set the EDID data of INPUT 2 to the forth type of embedded EDID data:
Note: If the conversion is successful, indicators of the pressed buttons will blink green
for three times at normal speed; if the conversion failed, they will blink for three times
quickly.
4.1.3 Inquiry
