1 Introduction Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis.
2 Getting Started We recommend that you: Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging • materials for possible future shipment Review the contents of this user manual • Use Kramer high performance, high resolution cables Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate). i 2.
3 Overview The high quality VM-400HDCP accepts an HDMI signal and distributes the selected signal to up to four outputs over DVI connectors. The VM-400HDCP features: • Support for up to 1.
standard resolution is 2.75 megapixels (including blanking interval) at 60Hz refresh. For practical purposes, this allows a maximum screen resolution at 60Hz of 1,915×1,436 pixels (standard 4:3 ratio), 1,854×1,483 pixels (5:4 ratio), or 2,098×1,311 (widescreen 16:10 ratio). A dual link doubles the number of TMDS pairs, effectively doubling video bandwidth at a given pixel clock frequency.

5 Connecting the VM-400HDCP i Always switch off the power to any device before connecting it to your VM-400HDCP. After connecting your VM-400HDCP, connect its power and then switch on the power to the other devices. Figure 3: Connecting the VM-400HDCP 1:4 DVI Distributor To connect the VM-400HDCP as illustrated in the example in Figure 3: 1. Connect the DVI source (for example, a DVD player) to the DVI Input connector on the front panel. 2.
6 Acquiring the EDID Each input on the VM-400HDCP has a factory default EDID loaded (see Section 8). This lets you connect the power before having to connect one of the acceptors. The factory-default is the EDID which is programmed into the VM-400HDCP before being shipped. The EDID can be acquired from: This is usually done only once when the machine is being set up in an installation. Once acquired, the EDID is saved in non-volatile memory and further acquisition is not necessary.
To acquire the EDID from Output 3: 1. Press the EDID SELECT button repeatedly until OUTPUT 3 LED flashes. 2. Press and hold the EDID READ button until the LED stops flashing. The EDID from Output 3 is now stored at the input.
