j  EDID Select rotary switch — Set this switch to one of the positions below   
SELECT
EDID
to select the source of the DDC or a specific resolution.
Position 0 — A user-recorded EDID that has been:
•  Captured from the display connected to the receiver output.
•  Captured from the display connected to transmitter DisplayPort Loop-through 
connector (see item 
b
 on figure 2 on page 6).
•  Manually imported via an SIS command (see page 21) or Product Configuration 
Software action (see page 32) to the transmitter.
Position 1 — The EDID is selected via the rear panel Remote RS-232 port or the front 
panel Configuration port, using an SIS command or the Product Configuration Software. 
This is the factory default position.
Position 2 — The EDID is received from the display connected to the receiver.
Position 3 — The EDID is received from the display connected to the DisplayPort 
Loop-through connector (see item 
b
 on figure 2 on page 6).
Position 4 – F — Specify a resolution. The table below identifies the switch positions 
and the associated resolutions. All resolutions are at 60 Hz.

k  Configuration port — Connect a controlling device, such as a PC, to this 
CONFIG
mini USB B port for control of all FOX II T DP functions and to install a firmware 
upgrade (see Remote Control on page 18 for SIS commands and software 
control).
This port serves a similar communications function as the rear panel Remote RS-232 
port (see item 
g
 on page 7), but it is easier to access than the rear port after the 
transmitter has been installed and cabled.
NOTE:  A front panel Configuration port connection and a rear panel Remote 
RS-232 port connection can both be active at the same time. If commands are 
sent simultaneously to both, the command that reaches the processor first is 
handled first.
