Loading an EDID from a Bank
1. Connect the included 5V DC power supply to the booster.
2. Set the
WR (write) switch to the E position in order to allow the EDID to be written to
the booster.
3. Select the desired EDID bank, using the piano DIP switches. Refer to the chart,

For example, if we wanted to recall the EDID that is stored in EDID bank 4, then we
would set the DIP switches to SW1 = OFF, SW2 = OFF, SW3 = ON.
4. Press and hold the
Program button on the booster. The Power LED will flash as the
EDID is recalled from the specified bank and loaded to the local input (HDMI In) on the
booster.
5. Set the
WR (write) switch to the D position in order to prevent the stored EDID from
being accidentally erased or overwritten.
Recalling an EDID from a bank (to the Local EDID) can also be accomplished by
using the
EDID Programming
