Lightware EDID Manager V4 is an HDMI/DVI EDID emulator and repeater that can store 99 EDIDs. It emulates and
keeps a fixed EDID for the source. Thanks to our Advanced EDID Management, the device can trick the DVI source (PC computer, laptop, etc.) by emulating any DVI display (LCD monitor, projector) for continuous video output -
even if the AV system is disconnected or powered down. In emulating an EDID, the user can set up any DVI or HDMI
output resolution, regardless of the used projector or monitor. This ensures that the overall system resolution can
be controlled. EDID memories 01 to 49 are factory preset and memories 51 to 99 are user programmable. Memory
00 is transparent which means that the attached display device's EDID (monitor or projector) will be reported back
to the source. In this mode the unit works as a simple repeater. The EDID Manager automatically compensates for
up to 60 meters of DVI copper cable at 22AWG.
HDCP enable/disable function turns off the EDID Manager's HDCP capability. Some computers choose to encrypt their output even when non-protected content is displayed, such as desktop images or presentations. This function forces the source to send an unencrypted signal if the content itself is also unprotected. It therefore helps technicians to integrate such laptops into a non-HDCP AV environment.
With the Easy EDID Creator (PC software) the users can create their own EDID by completing four simple steps. More experienced users can use the Advanced EDID Editor software to manage every possible setting in the EDID, which they can upload to the memory of the EDID Manager.
