building structure or similar structure.
EDID101H • Installation5
b HDMI input – Connect an HDMI source to this female HDMI type-A connector.
HDCP – When required, the HDMI input negotiates and authenticates HDCP with a
source device. The authentication process is repeated when a stored EDID is changed.
c HDMI output – Connect a display or other output device to this female HDMI type-A
connector. The HDMI output provides +5VDC, (up to 250 mA with over-current
protection) on pin 16.
HDCP – If a connected output device requires HDCP encryption, the EDID101H output
negotiates and authenticates HDCP directly.
Video Format Correction – When the current input signal is HDMI and the connected
output is DVI, the signal is converted to DVI format. This is based on the capability of
the connected output device as listed in its EDID.
The EDID information is read from the connected output device and written to memory
whenever the output device is connected to this port and powered on.
NOTE: The EDID information is also read and stored whenever power is recycled
to the connected output device or when the output device is replaced.
To securely fasten an HDMI cable to the EDID101H using the included LockIt HDMI
cable lacing brackets:
1. Plug the HDMI cable into the panel connection (see figure 5).

2. Loosen the HDMI connection mounting screw from the panel enough to allow the
LockIt lacing bracket to be placed over it. The screw does not have to be removed.
3. Place the LockIt lacing bracket on the screw and against the HDMI connector, then
tighten the screw to secure the bracket.
ATTENTION: Do not overtighten the HDMI connector mounting screw. The
shield it fastens to is very thin and can easily be stripped.
4. Loosely place the included tie wrap around the HDMI connector and the LockIt
lacing bracket as shown.
5. Hold the connector securely against the lacing bracket, then tighten the tie wrap
and remove the excess length.

d EDID Store LED – One bi-color LED lights green when power is connected. It flashes
amber when reading and storing EDID from a connected output device, returning to
green when recording is complete.
e EDID Store button – One recessed push button initiates both reading and storing
EDID. With both A and B DIP switches set off (down), press the store button to read
the EDID of a device connected to the output. The EDID is then stored to a user slot
selected by the rotary switch. Up to 15 EDID files can be stored.
Reset – To reset the EDID 101H to its default state, press and hold the EDID button
while applying power. As power is applied, all front panel LEDs blink three times
indicating a successful reset.
f EDID selection rotary wwitch – One 16-position rotary switch combined with
DIP switches A and B (see figure 4, g on page 5) provide a choice of user stored or
pre-programmed EDID (see EDID101H Configuration on page11).
User Loaded EDID – With both DIP switches off (down) rotary positions 1 through F
store user loaded EDIDs (see Record EDID to a Memory Slot: on page11). The
memory slot is selected before initiating the EDID read and store.
Automatic EDID – With both DIP switches off (down) and the rotory switch at
position0, the EDID of a device connected to the output is automatically stored upon
detection of HPD. If no device is detected, the default EDID (720p60) is loaded.
g DIP switch A and B – Two 2-position DIP switches, A and B, are used with the rotary
switch to select from pre-programmed HDMI and DVI EDID, or to allow recording a
custom EDID from a connected display. The “off” position is down.
h DIP Switch C – DIP switch C enables (default: up) or disables (down) HDCP
authorization.
i Hot Plug Detect (HPD) – One 2-pole 3.5mm captive screw
connector used to manually toggle HPD on the HDMI input.
When the two pins (AandB) are shorted together, an HPD event
is initiated on the HDMI input.

NOTES:
• The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical. The ideal
length is 3/16 inch (5 mm). If it is any longer, the exposed wires may touch,
causing a short circuit between them. If it is any shorter, the wires can be easily
pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.
• Do not tin the wires. Tinned wire does not hold its shape and can become
loose over time.

EDID Minder
Automatic Mode
User Assigned Mode
EDID Minder ensures that the connected source sees the EDID of a display, even if a display
is not connected. Depending on the EDID mode selected, the EDID of a connected display
can be stored automatically, or the user can manually select from the table of factory loaded
EDID files. This EDID is stored in the EDID 101H.
In automatic mode (see Record EDID Automatically: on page11), the EDID101H
automatically reads and stores EDID from the connected output. This EDID is retained until
a different display is connected or the unit is power cycled. If no display is connected when
the unit is powered on, a factory default EDID (720p@60Hz, 2-Ch audio) is present.
In user assigned mode (see Assign Pre-programmed EDID: on page11), the user can
select from 48 factory loaded EDID files, each catagorized by rate type (PC or HDTV), video
format (DVI or HDMI), audio type (2-Ch or Multi-Ch), and native resolution. The unit retains
this setting after a power cycle.
Additionally, fifteen user-loaded slots are available to save the EDID of connected displays
(see Record EDID to a Memory Slot: on page11). EDIDs saved to these slots are
retained after a power cycle. Upon a factory reset, these EDIDs revert to the factory default
(720p @ 60 Hz, 2-Ch audio).
A table showing the factory loaded EDID options is shown on the following page. The EDID
memory location is labelled X@ for consistency with the memory location SIS command.

Remote
Communication and
Control
This section describes remote operation of the EDID101H. Topics include:
• Using Simple Instruction Set (SIS) Commands
• Command and Response Table for SIS Commands
Using Simple Instruction Set (SIS) Commands
The EDID101H is remotely set up and controlled using Extron SIS commands issued from
a host computer or other device, such as a control system. SIS commands are issued from
the computer USB port to the front panel Config port (see Connecting to the USB Port
on page16 to connect to this port).
Host-to-device Communications
SIS commands consist of one or more characters per field. No special characters are
required to begin or end a command sequence. You can enter these commands from
your computer using a communication software program such as Extron DataViewer
or HyperTerminal. When the device determines that a command is valid, it executes the
command and sends a response to the host device.
Most responses from the EDID101H to the host computer end with a carriage return and
a line feed (CR/LF = ]), which signals the end of the response character string. A string is
one or more characters.
Device-initiated Messages
When a local event such as a front panel selection or a change in signal status takes place,
the switcher responds by sending a message to the host, indicating what change has
occurred. No response is required from the host.
1212EDID101H • Remote Communications and Control
Error Responses
If the device is unable to execute a command it receives because the command is invalid or
contains invalid parameters, the device returns an error response to the host. The following
error response codes can be sent:
E01 – Invalid input channel number (out of range)
E10 – Invalid command
E13 – Invalid value (out of range)
Using the Command and Response Table
The command and response table is shown on the following pages. Symbols are used
throughout the table to represent variables in the command and response fields. Symbol
definitions and an ASCII-to-hexadecimal (HEX) conversion table are shown below.
Command and response examples are shown throughout the command and response
table.
NOTE: Upper and lower case text can be used interchangeably unless otherwise
stated.

Rack Mounting
UL Guidelines for Rack Mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are relevant to the safe installation of
these products in a rack:
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the units are installed in a closed or
multiunit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by
Extron.
Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the equipment gets adequate
air flow for safe operation.
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical
loading does not create a hazardous condition.
Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect
that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider
the equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment.
Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuit (such as the use of power strips).
Rack Mounting Procedure
To mount the unit on a rack shelf, follow the instructions provided with the shelf accessories.
