Installation and <strong>Operation</strong><br />
Before permanently securing the unit for final installation of cabling behind walls or ceilings, test for<br />
proper operation of the unit and the cables in your system.<br />
It is recommended that you leave enough ventilation space to<br />
provide sufficient airflow and cooling, especially if you are going<br />
to leave the unit powered at all times.<br />
An optional HDMI cable clip (included) enables a method for<br />
securing HDMI cables the KD-2X1CS, KD-3X1CS, KD-4X1CS<br />
units and helps defeat intermittent or complete signal loss due<br />
to poor connection.<br />
Optional HDMI Cable<br />
clip (included)<br />
IR Emitter Control<br />
When using an IR Emitter / IR Extender (sold separately), the IR Emitter must be mounted over<br />
the IR Sensor on the front of the KD-2X1CS, KD-3X1CS, KD-4X1CS unit. One end of the cable<br />
is connected to the IR Receiver / Master Controller / IR Extender / IR Connecting Block, while the<br />
other end is mounted over the IR Sensor of the KD-2X1CS, KD-3X1CS, KD-4X1CS unit.

EDID Setup<br />
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure provided by a digital display to<br />
describe its capabilities to a video source. This data is also known as a “handshake” and typically<br />
includes manufacturer, serial number, product type, resolutions supported by the display, display<br />
size, pixel mapping data, etc.<br />
<strong>Key</strong> <strong>Digital</strong> EDID Control allows the integrator to choose the handshake that will be provided to<br />
source devices of the system. The EDID handshake is relayed to the source from the Champion<br />
Series switch, not from any of the displays/output devices of the system. This handshake will<br />
always be the EDID information that the source device receives.<br />
To change the EDID of the system, press the following buttons on the <strong>Key</strong> <strong>Digital</strong> IR Remote<br />
control: R2 » R1 » R3 » XX.<br />
The XX characters will be replaced with the two digit number that corresponds to the EDID you<br />
wish to set. Use the below chart to find the various EDID settings. The default EDID is ‘00’--Copy<br />
EDID from output 1.<br />
The possible EDID settings can range from ‘00’ to ‘12’. (‘00’ is the default).<br />
