EDID/DDC Emulator Adapters
If you are using the EDID/DDC Emulator Adapters in isolation they may simply be installed as shown in
the diagrams above, by connecting the Male interface of the Emulator Adapter to the graphics card. The
preset values (see table) will then be available via your computers graphics/resolution settings.
EDID/DDC Emulator Programmer & EDID/DDC Emulator Adapter
Please Note: Writing cloned EDID/DDC data to the Adapters will overwrite the preset EDID/DDC data
which cannot be recovered.
Before beginning the cloning procedure, please turn your monitor off.
1. To clone the EDID/DDC data of a monitor you will need to attach the Programmer to your monitor:
a. If you’re using a VGA monitor this can be done directly using a VGA cable.
b. If you’re using a DVI monitor you will need the supplied VGA/DVI adapter along with a standard DVI
cable.
c. If you’re using a HDMI monitor you will need the supplied VGA/HDMI adapter cable along with a
standard HDMI cable.
d. If you’re using a 4K HDMI monitor you will need the supplied VGA/HDMI adapter cable, then the
blue 4K HDMI Adapter and finally a standard HDMI cable.
2. Once you have made the connection turn the monitor on and select the corresponding input, and then
connect the USB DC cable to the Programmer.
3. The LED on the top of the Emulator Programmer will immediately illuminate blue and then blink once.
Once the LED has blinked the EDID/DDC data has been cloned and the Programmer can be detached
from your monitor. If using the 4K HDMI adapter remove this now.
4. Now disconnect the USB DC cable and connect an EDID/DDC Emulator Adapter to the VGA, DVI
(using VGA/DVI Adapter) or HDMI (using the VGA/HDMI adapter) port of the Emulator Programmer.

5. Connect the USB DC cable. The LED on the top of the EDID/DDC Emulator Programmer will
immediately illuminate red and then blink once. Once the LED has blinked the EDID/DDC data has
been written to the Emulator Adapter.
6. Now connect the male interface of the EDID/DDC Emulator Adapter to your graphics card. The cloned
values (including monitor name) will then be available via your PCs operating system.
Troubleshooting
Windows shows a “Generic Non-PnP Monitor” is connected
Make sure that the EDID/DDC Emulator Adapter is directly connected to the graphics card or with the male
connector (with the arrow above it) pointing towards the graphics card if connected to a cable.
After cloning a display the preset values are still present/shown in the operating system
1. Repeat the cloning process, ensuring that the display is powered on and set to the VGA/DVI input that
you are cloning
2. Make sure that the LED on the EDID Emulator Programmer blinks blue to confirm cloning and then
red to confirm writing to the Emulator Adapter
Reboot the PC and reconnect the Emulator Adapter
