5V DC Power DVI In On the bottom panel of the Sender unit is a bank of 4 DIP switches. Remove the piece of colored tape to reveal the DIP switch bank. These DIP switches provide control over EDID management and color depth. DIP switches 3 and 4 are not used. CTS 219 117 ON 1 3 4 CTS 219 117 ON 2 1 2 3 4 Default Settings The following table lists the default (factory) settings of each DIP switch. See the following page for details on each DIP switch function.
EDID Management The DVI over 1 CAT6 w/ Galvanic Isolator can be switched between two EDID modes: Internal or Pass-through. After changing DIP switch 1, the Sender unit must be power-cycled for changes to take effect. ON (default) Pass-through mode. DDC and HPD are passed through. Both the connection status and the full video capabilities of the monitor are passed to the source device. ON 1 3 ON 4 CTS 117 Internal EDID mode. In this mode, a generic EDID will be sent to the source device.
The Receiver unit of the DVI over 1 CAT6 w/ Galvanic Isolator has a trim pot that is used to equalize the output signal, compensating for extension distance and cable skew. If there is no output video or if output video contains video artifacts and/or video noise such as snow, use the steps below to adjust the trim pot. over 1 CAT6 DVI w/ Galvanic Isolator R 1. Use a small flat-headed tool to turn the EQ pot. 2. The trim pot has eight different positions (0 through 7).
