Reading out DDC information

Besides selecting preset DDC information, you can also read out the DDC informa-
tion of a monitor to provide it to the computer.
ADVICE: This technology allows you to provide the DDC information of the moni-
tor, which is connected to the user module of the KVM matrix switch.
How to read out DDC information:
1. Unplug the DVI-D video cable from the DVI-D CPU interface.
2. Move the DDC switch to the Learn position.
The LEDs of both Trans. interfaces indicate that the Learn mode is
now activated (see Status displays on page 26).
3. Connect the monitor whose DDC information are to be stored in the target
module to the DVI-D CPU interface.
NOTE: The DDC information of a monitor, which is connected to the user
module of the KVM matrix system can be stored by using an analog VGA
interface. For this purpose, the DDC information has to be preferably read in
through this analog interface.
Use a DVI-I-HD15F video adapter (item no.: A640 0027), for example, to con-
nect the VGA cable of the monitor to the target module,
The LEDs of both Trans. interfaces indicate that the DDC information has
been successfully read in (see Status displays on page 26).
4. Move the DDC switch to the User position.
The read-in DDC information is provided to the connected com-
puter.
5. Remove the monitor cable from the DVI-D CPU interface.
6. Insert the DVI-D video cable that is connected to the computer into the
DVI-D CPU interface.
