RS-232 Configuration

The RS-232 port is used for configuration and control of the product, as well as pass through of RS-232 commands to a
compatible Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver / matrix device.

The default RS-232 communication settings are:
Baud Rate: 57600
Data Bit: 8
Stop Bit: 1
Parity Bit: none
For a complete RS-232 command list please see the C66CS User Manual - available to download from the Blustream

website.

EDID Control

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data
is used by the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display. By pre-determining
the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time needed for EDID hand
shaking thus making switching quicker and more reliable.

Configuration of the EDID settings for each input can be achieved using the following RS-232 commands to specify the
required EDID:

EDIDxxDFzz

Where xx = Input: 00 refers to ALL inputs; 01-06 = specific input
zz = EDID as shown below

zz = 00: HDMI 1080p@60Hz, Audio 2ch PCM (Default)
