Note:
Pictures shown in this manual are for reference only, different model and
specifications are subject to real product.
Output HDCP compliant status depends on input signal. When the input signal is
with HDCP, then output signal is with HDCP and vice versa.
HDMI signal contains both HDMI video signal and embedded audio signal (PCM,
Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-HD), while DVI signal contains solely video signal.
VDA-12 is capable to switch input signal format according to the displays.
For example, when the input signal is HDMI and the display can only support DVI
signal, VDA-12 will switch the signal into DVI format.
EDID Management: automatically manage output signal (e.g. output resolution) to
fit all displays.

3.3 Connection Procedures
Step1. Connect a HDMI/ DVI source device (e.g. Blue-ray DVD) to the IN socket of
VDA-12 with HDMI cable.
Step2. Connect HDMI displays to OUT 1 and OUT 2 sockets of VDA-12 with HDMI
cables.
Step3. Plug a DC 5V 2A power adapter to the power port of VDA-12.
Note: All the ports support hot-plug. It’s important to know that hot plugging a display
may result in splash screen at output ends.
3.4 EDID Management
VDA-12 comprises 1 HDMI input port & 2 HDMI output ports, and it possess built-in
EDID management function.
When all output ports are connected with displays, the source device will gain the
EDID data from the display connected output 1 port. At this point, if you disconnect
the output 1 display and want the source device to gain the EDID from the output 2,
the VDA-12 need to be restarted.
All connected displays should be compatible, for example: when output 1 connects
with a 1080p display, VDA-12 will select 1080p as output resolution and distribute
1080p signal to displays connected to output 1~2. If the display connected to output
2 don’t support 1080p signal, there will be no output on the display.
