Features

EDID Minder — The EDID Minder maintains continuous EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) communication with the attached source to ensure that the DVI source powers up correctly and maintains a proper video output, even if the display is off.

EDID Lock — The last recorded EDID is saved to the input and used after a power cycle or after displays have been changed. The EDID presented to the input is not affected by power cycles or changing the output displays (even with hot-plug changes).

High resolution DVI-D input — The distribution amplifiers accept one single link DVI-D input, with a resolution range up to 1920x1200 or 1080p @ 60 Hz.

Input equalization — Input Equalization (EQ) conditions the input signals to ensure the integrity of the signals.

Pre-emphasis — This feature enables the distribution amplifier to compensate for poor signals delivered to the output devices.

DVI-D outputs — The units distribute four (DVI DA4 Plus), six (DVI DA6 Plus), or eight (DVI DA8 Plus) single link DVI-D output signals simultaneously, at resolutions up to 1920x1200 or 1080p @ 60 Hz.

External power supply — All three models are powered by an ENERGY STAR ^® qualified external 12 VDC power supply (provided with the units), which provide worldwide compatibility, low power consumption, and reduced operating costs.

Power on pin 14 — The distribution amplifiers provide a 5 VDC (250 mA) power on each output for peripheral devices.

Front panel indicator LED — The LED light on the front panel provides feedback about power status and whether an input signal is detected.

Versatile mounting options — All three units can be mounted in a rack, under a desk or set on a tabletop.

This section describes:

• Installation Overview
- Rear Panel Features

Installation Overview

All three distribution amplifiers can be mounted on tabletops, under furniture, and in racks by following these steps:

  1. Ensure that the input sources, the distribution amplifier and the output displays are all turned off and all power sources and signal cables are disconnected.
  2. Mount the unit as described in "Mounting" on page 15.
  3. Connect the cables (see "Rear Panel Features" on page 4).
  4. If required, configure the internal DIP switches to disable EDID (see page 8) from certain outputs or to activate the EDID Lock mode (see page 10).
  5. Plug in the power supply (see page 4).
  6. Turn on the display devices.
  7. Turn on the input devices (see "Operation" on page 7).

① Power input — Connect the two pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connector from the power supply (provided with the unit) to this socket on the rear panel.

Back Panel Power Receptacle DC Power Cord Captive Screw Connector Ground +12 VDC External Power Supply (12 VDC, 1 A) AC Power Cord

Figure 3. Power Supply Connection

The external power supply in the illustration above (12 VDC, 1 A) is for use with the DVI DA4 Plus. The DVI DA6 Plus and DVI DA8 Plus use a 12 VDC, 3 A external power supply.

CAUTION: These products are intended to be supplied by a Listed Power Unit marked "Class 2" or "LPS", rated 12 VDC, maximum 1.0 A (DVI DA4 Plus) or maximum 3.0 A (DVI DA6 Plus and DVI DA8 Plus). Always use a power supply supplied by or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end product.

Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities. The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as the Extron A/V processing equipment in an ordinary location, Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet, podium or desk.

The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 75 and the Canadian Electrical Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to building structure or similar structure.

NOTE: • The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical. The ideal length is 3/16 inches (5 mm). Any longer and the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit between them. Any shorter and 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.

② Input connector — Connect a single link DVI-D source device, with a resolution range up to 1920x1200 or 1080p@60 Hz, to the female DVI-I input, using a DVI cable.

NOTE: Although these distribution amplifiers have DVI-I connectors, they are only compatible with single link DVI-D video signals.

Input EQ conditions input signals to ensure the integrity of the signals delivered to the output devices.

③ Output Connectors — Use DVI-I cables to connect up to four (DVI DA4 Plus), six (DVI DA6 Plus) or eight (DVI DA8 Plus) display devices.

NOTE: The actual signal transmission distance can vary and depends on signal resolution, cable quality, graphics card, and display used in the system.

DVI Connector Pin Assignments

The illustration below shows the pin assignments for the DVI-I connectors. See the note under input connectors for information about DVI signal compatibility.

Etron DVI DA PLUS 1 Etron DVI DA Plus SERIES 1

Figure 4. DVI DA Plus Series Front Panel Features

① LED indicator — This LED indicator lights amber when the unit is receiving power but no input signal. When the unit detects an input signal, the LED lights green.

Operation

Once the distribution amplifier has been installed and the cables have been connected:

  1. Power on the display devices.
  2. Power on the distribution amplifier. The LED lights amber to show that the unit is receiving power.
  3. Power on the input device.

EDID Minder

When a DVI video source boots up, it normally communicates with the output device using the bidirectional Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) communication protocol. The source device then produces a signal with a resolution that is compatible with the output device.

The Extron EDID Minder feature maintains continuous EDID communication with the attached source and ensures that the DVI source powers up correctly and maintains a proper video output even if the display is off, or when a new monitor is connected to the output.

In default mode, when the distribution amplifier is powered on, it automatically scans all detectable outputs, selects the device with the lowest native resolution and passes the EDID information from that device to the input device.

While the distribution amplifier remains powered on, it monitors the Hot Plug Detect (HPD) signal on each output and repeats the scan process every time a display is connected or disconnected.

If all outputs displays are removed, the EDID provided is that of the last stored display to which the distribution amplifier was connected. If no output device has previously been connected to the unit, or the unit has been through a power cycle with no displays attached, the EDID uses the factory default, reporting a native rate of 1024x768.

When the EDID Minder is in Lock mode (see page 10), the last recorded EDID is stored to the input and used after a power cycle or after the displays have been changed.

Disabling the EDID Minder

Some applications require that the distribution amplifier does not automatically read the EDID from one or more specific outputs. In those cases, the EDID Minder feature can be disabled so those specific outputs are ignored during the automatic scanning process:

  1. Remove and keep the screws holding the cover to the base. For the DVI DA4 Plus, there are three screws along the rear edge of the top and two screws on each side. For the DVI DA6 Plus and DVI DA8 Plus, there are four screws along the rear edge of the top and three screws along each side. Set aside the cover.
  2. Check the part number of the printed circuit board (outlined in yellow in figure 5 on the next page). The boards must have a part number of 20-1496-01LF and higher for the DVI DA4 Plus or 20-1497-01LF and higher for the DVI DA6 Plus or DVI DA8 Plus.

NOTE: If the part number of the board is lower than these values, you cannot deactivate the EDID Minder on your model. Replace the cover as described in step 5.

  1. Locate the DIP switches. There is a single bank of four switches for the DVI DA4 Plus (outlined in red in figure 5). Each switch regulates the correspondingly numbered output (1-4).

Rear Panel Part Number E DIP Pre-emphasis DIP Switches Inactivation DIP Switches

Figure 5. Printed Circuit Board for the DVI DA4 Plus

There are two banks of four switches for the DVI DA6 Plus (see figure 6) and the DVI DA8 Plus. In the bank to the left, each switch regulates the correspondingly numbered output (1-4). In the bank to the right, switches 1 and 2 correspond to outputs 5 and 6 for the DVI DA6 Plus; switches 1-4 correspond to outputs 5-8 for the DVI DA8 Plus.

Figure 6. EDID Disable DIP Switches for the DVI DA6 Plus

  1. By default the switches are in the "Off" (down) position, allowing the EDID information to be read from the corresponding output. To deactivate EDID Minder for one or more outputs, move the switch for that output to the "On" (up) position. In the diagram at right, the unit will read EDID from output 3, but not from outputs 1, 2, or 4.

  2. Replace the cover, using the screws that were removed in step 1.

Extron DVI DA8 Plus - Disabling the EDID Minder - 3

EDID Lock

Some applications require the distribution amplifier to maintain specific EDID information. This information could be lost after power is cycled off and on or when a new output display is connected to the DVI DA Plus.

By default the EDID Lock mode DIP switch is set to "Off". In this position, when the distribution amplifier is powered off, the EDID information that was being used is erased. When the distribution amplifier is powered back on, it automatically scans all detectable outputs, selects the device with the lowest native resolution and passes the EDID information from that device to the input device. If no output devices are detected, the distribution amplifier uses the factory default EDID (1024x768 @ 60 Hz).

While the distribution amplifier remains powered on, it monitors the Hot Plug Detect (HPD) signal on each output and repeats the scan process whenever a display is connected or disconnected.

When EDID Lock feature is enabled, the last recorded EDID is saved to the input and used when the power is cycled on and off or when a new display, with a different resolution, is connected.

Switch PositionAction on the Input
On (Lock) • The last recorded EDID is stored to the input.
Off (Default) • After a power cycle, the DA reads EDID from all valid displays, determines the lowest resolution, and stores that to the input.

To enable the EDID Lock feature:

  1. Remove and keep the screws holding the cover to the base. For the DVI DA4 Plus, there are three screws along the rear edge of the top and two screws on each side. For the DVI DA6 Plus and DVI DA8 Plus, there are four screws along the rear edge of the top and three screws along each side. Set aside the cover.
  2. Check the part number of the printed circuit board (see figure 5). The boards must have a part number of 20-1667-01LF and higher for the DVI DA4 Plus or 20-1683-02LF and higher for the DVI DA6 Plus or DVI DA8 Plus.

NOTE: If the part number of the board is lower than these values, the EDID Lock feature is not available on your model. Replace the cover as described in step 5.

  1. Locate the Pre-emphasis and EDID Lock DIP switches. Figure 5, shows the switches for the DVI DA4 Plus. The DVI DA6 Plus and DVI DA8 Plus have an identical block of DIP switches in a similar position on the circuit board. The EDID Lock DIP switch (number 2) is labeled EDID Mode.

  2. By default, the EDID Mode DIP switch is in the down (disabled) position, allowing for normal operation. To enable the EDID Lock feature, toggle the switch to the up position.

NOTE: Before enabling the EDID Lock feature, be sure the desired EDID is currently being used.

  1. Replace the cover, using the screws that were removed in step 1.

Pre-emphasis

Pre-emphasis compensates for long cable runs, distortion, and pixelation on the distribution amplifier outputs. To enable pre-emphasis:

  1. Remove and keep the screws holding the cover to the base. For the DVI DA4 Plus, there are three screws along the rear edge of the top and two screws on each side. For the DVI DA6 Plus and DVI DA8 Plus, there are four screws along the rear edge of the top and three screws along each side. Set aside the cover.
  2. Check the part number of the printed circuit board (see figure 5). The boards must have a part number of 20-1667-01LF and higher for the DVI DA4 Plus or 20-1683-02LF and higher for the DVI DA6 Plus or DVI DA8 Plus.

NOTE: If the part number of the board is lower than these values, you cannot activate pre-emphasis on your model. Replace the cover as described in step 5.

  1. Locate the Pre-emphasis DIP switch (number 1), which is labeled Preemph.
  2. By default, the Pre-emphasis DIP switch is in the down (disabled) position. To enable pre-emphasis, toggle the switch to the up position.
  3. Replace the cover, using the screws that were removed in step 1.

Troubleshooting

No output signal — Check that the front panel LED is lit (amber shows that the unit is receiving power, green shows that it is also receiving an input signal). If LED is not lit, check the power supply (page 4) and the video input connections (see page 5).

No output signal or poor quality signal — Check the integrity of the cabling from the source device to the distribution amplifier and from the distribution amplifier to each of the display devices.

  • DVI signals run at very high frequency and poor connections can cause degradation or loss of the signal, or jitter.
  • Signal transmission distance can vary greatly and depends on signal resolution, cable type, cable quality, graphics card and the display used in the system.
    • Use only cable that is designed for DVI signals.
  • Limit or avoid the use of adapters or couplers.
  • Enable the Pre-emphasis feature

Display device displays a flashing black or blue screen, snow or other distortion — A device that is not HDCP compliant may be receiving HDCP-encrypted signals. The DVI DA Plus series distribution amplifiers are not HDCP compliant.

Signal on some displays but not others — Reboot the source device. When the source device boots up, the EDID handling feature ensures that the output resolution of the source device matches the requirements of the display device with the lowest resolution.

If an additional display device is added, which requires an even lower resolution, the image will not be displayed correctly on that monitor until the source device is shut down and rebooted. At that time, EDID handling ensures that the output resolution of the source device is recalibrated to meet the needs of the additional display device.

NOTE: For EDID handling to work correctly, you must disable the EDID Lock feature for all outputs (see "EDID Lock" on page 10).
