2. Use Male-to-Male Type A HDMI cables to connect up to eight HDMI display devices to the HDMI Output ports.
3. (Optional) To edit the VS0108HA system settings through the RS-232 port, connect the hardware/software controller here.
4. Plug the power adapter that came with the VS0108HA into an
AC power source, then plug the power adapter cable into the splitter’s Power Jack

EDID

Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is a data format that contains a display’s basic information and is used to communicate with the video source/system. The VS0108HA lets users select an  EDID Mode, which sets how the source device acquires a display’s EDID.

EDID Mode Selection The EDID Mode can be selected using the EDID Mode Switch located at the VS0108HA unit’s rear panel.

To select an EDID, press the EDID Mode Switch to toggle between the ATEN default EDID and other EDID Settings (0~7) as follows:
♦ 0 (Default) – EDID is set to the ATEN default configuration.
The user can further choose between 14 ATEN default EDID settings available via the RS-232 command (see ATEN Default EDID, page 19)
♦ 1 (Port 1) – Implements the EDID of the connected display to Port 1, and passes it to the video source. The VS0108HA is able to copy the EDID of any connected display to the input source (see EDID Commands, page 16)
♦ 2 (Auto) – Implements the EDID of all connected displays. The VS0108HA uses the best resolution for all displays
♦ 3 (SW) – Uses the EDID configuration defined through the RS-232 command. Refer to EDID Commands, page 16 for more details
♦ 4 ~ 7- Reserved

EDID via RS-232
To use one of the 14 available ATEN default EDID configurations and to copy the EDID of any connected display to the input source, see EDID Commands, page 16.

Hardware Setup

1. Important safety information regarding the placement of this device is provided on page 11. Please review it before proceeding.
2. Make sure that the power to all devices connected to the installation are turned off. You must unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function.

Installation

Setting up the VE803 is a matter of plugging in all the cables. Refer to the installation diagram on the next page (the numbers in the diagram correspond to the numbered steps) and do the following:

1. Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the HDMI output port of your source device, and connect the other end to the HDMI Input port on the VE803T.

6. Use a second Cat 5e cable to connect the USB port on the VE803T to the USB port on the VE803R.
   

   Note: For the VE803, a second Cate 5e cable is required if you need to use EDID bypass and HDCP authentication.

7. Using the power adapter supplied with this package, connect the VE803R to a power outlet.
8. Turn on the HDMI source and display devices.

Installation Diagram

Basic Operation

Overview

This chapter describes the EDID and Equalization (EQ) switch functions to adjust the HDMI display and obtain the best video quality.

EDID Switch

Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is a data format that contains a display’s basic information and is used to communicate with the video source/ system. In order to deliver the best video format, the VE803 is able to read the EDID information from the display and determine the best video resolution to send to the video source and program its resolution.

Use the EDID switch on the VE803T to manually switch EDID modes. There are two EDID modes to choose from:

• EDID/DDC Bypass- This mode bypasses the use of EDID / DDC, thus allowing the display information to come directly from the HDMI display to the source device, and determine the best resolution.
• ATEN Default- ATEN’s default EDID setting is sent to the video source to set the display resolution setting for your HDMI display.

Equalization Adjustment

The 8-segment Equalization (EQ) switch located on the VE803R unit is used to adjust the video quality. Use the EQ switch to adjust the equalization strength in order to improve a flickering or blinking image:

• 7 = Strongest EQ
• 0 = Weakest EQ

Installation

Single Stage Installation (C)
Setting up the VS132A / VS134A / VS138A is simply a matter of plugging in the cables. In a single stage installation, no additional video splitters are cascaded down from the first unit. Refer to the diagram as you follow the step by step directions below:

1. Make sure that the computer and monitors you are using for the installation are all powered off.
2. Plug the female end of a male-to-female VGA cable into the VS132A / VS134A / VS138A’s Video In port.
3. Plug the male end of the VGA cable into the computer or source device’s video output port.
4. Use 2/4/8 VGA cables to connect 2/4/8 displays to the VS132A / VS134A / VS138A’s Video Out ports.
   Note: VGA cables do not come with the package. These must be purchased separately.
5. Plug the power adapter (supplied with this package) into an AC source; then plug the power adapter cable into the splitter’s power jack.
6. Power on all equipment.

Cascading (D)
To provide video displays for more monitors, additional units can be cascaded. Use a high-density HDB-15 male/female video extender cable to connect any available Video Out port on the higher level Video Splitter to the Video In port of the lower level video splitter.
You can cascade as many video splitters as there are ports available, and all three models can be mixed on the same chain. Theoretically, there is no limit to the number of splitters that can be cascaded, but the quality will deteriorate as you get further and further away from the video signal.
