DVI /Audio Matrix Switcher 8x8 1. Introduction 1.1. Introduction to MDV88A MDV series Matrix switcher is a high-performance professional computer and audio signal switcher that can be used for cross switching of multi computer and audio signal. Independent DVI component and balance/unbalance I/O terminals make each component signal transmit and switch separately; this design can reduce attenuation of signal transmission to minimum and output the image and audio signal in high-fidelity quality.

System Diagram Based on different occasions, the video/audio input ports can be connected with many source devices, such as DVD player, computer, graphic workstation and digital exhibition stage etc. And the output ports can be connected with various kinds of devices, such as projector, camera, displayer and amplifier etc. The system diagram is showed as below: Figure 6-1 System Diagram PTN Electronics Limited 8 www.
DVI /Audio Matrix Switcher 8x8 7. Advanced Function Introduction 7.1. EDID Management Introduction MDV matrix switcher is built in the EDID management database. The EDID management can be automatically shake hand, or manual exchanged, and factory restore. The MDV matrix switcher is built in the EDID data, which can communicate with the displayers and video source automatically.
DVI /Audio Matrix Switcher 8x8 blank for 3 seconds and recover again. And, the MDV matrix switcher will send out the RS232 feedback command. 3) If all these symbols works, it means the action is taken. 7.2.2. EDID hand-shake priority The EDID refresh ports have the priority grade, ranging from output 1 to output 8 in priority order. It means the output 1 is the most prior to exchange the EDID data, and then the output 2 is the second prior. And, the output 8 is the least prior. 8.
