General Notes for Working with DGX Configuration Software and DXLink Fiber TXs

When a DXLink Fiber TX is connected to a PC running DGX Configuration Software, the following applies:

DGX Configuration Software displays the connected Transmitter only.

File menu – Select Open File to load an .edid file to the program. Select Save to File to save an .edid file

containing the currently displayed settings in the EDID Programmer view.

Communication menu – Use to change the serial communication settings. This menu also includes the option

to “Refresh Device Lists,” which will refresh the device list in the EDID Programmer tab.

Utilities menu – This menu does not apply to DXLink Fiber Transmitters.

Help menu – Select to access the Help file for the program or open a link for the Web Update option

(to download updates for the program) or view current version information.

Messages in the bottom pane of the DGX Configuration Software dialog box report status of operations.

Messages can be copied* for technical support purposes.

* Right-click on a message to access a shortcut menu with options to Copy Selected, Copy All, or Clear. When copying

multiple messages: either select consecutive items by holding down the Shift key and clicking the first and last item or

select nonconsecutive items by holding down the Control key and clicking on each item.

EDID Programmer View

From the EDID Programmer view, EDID EEPROM chips for the HD-15 (VGA) or HDMI connector on the Transmitter

can be re-programmed if necessary.

EDID Overview

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure established by the Video Electronics Standards

Association (VESA) to enable plug-and-play support by enabling easy configuration of a source’s graphics subsystem

based on the capabilities of the attached display device.

EDID information includes items such as the following:

Manufacturer’s name

Product type

Supported video resolutions and refresh rates

Color space and filter chromaticity

Detailed timings

When a source is directly connected to a display device, it can use the display device’s EDID information to determine

an initial compatible video signal to send. With the source’s display controls, the user can modify this selection to

another compatible signal based on the provided EDID information.

DXLink Fiber Equipment and EDID

In cases where the HD-15 (VGA) or HDMI input on a DXLink Fiber Transmitter is used and a resolution incompatibility

exists (or if the source device needs a specific resolution or a limited set of resolutions), the DXLink Fiber Transmitters

have the ability to update the VGA or HDMI EDID emulation file (by updating the EEPROM chip) which comes

preloaded with an AMX VGA or HDMI EDID set.

The AMX VGA EDID set and the AMX HDMI EDID set each consist of a number of common EDID settings (for VGA

and HDMI timing details, see page 119). In most cases, the DXLink Fiber Transmitter can be used as is from the factory

with no adjustments.

The DGX Configuration Software with EDID programming functionality has been provided for cases where a user

defined EDID set is desired (this must be a subset of the supported input resolutions shown in Appendix E;

see page 119). The EDID Programmer view can be used for writing user defined VGA or HDMI EDID data to the

DXLink Fiber Transmitter’s HD-15 or HDMI input.
