TABLE OF CONTENTS
INTRODUCTION
The AV-GM0A43-S1 4-Display Video Wall Processor is a powerful, cost effective, and fully real time data/video processor for multiple flat panel displays or projectors. Thru digital transmission, the quality of the outcome videos is guaranteed. The output display is grained up to 255 by 255 squares. Virtually any setups for the display layout can be possible by the provided software. The
AV-GM0A43-S1 allows you to input DVI/HDMI, wherever positions and whatever sizes you want for viewing.

EDID LEARNING
The EDID learning function is only necessary whenever you encounter any display on the HDMI output port that cannot play audio and video properly. Because the HDMI sources and displays may have various level of capability in playing audio and video, the general principle is that the source will output the lowest standards in terms of audio format and video resolutions to be commonly acceptable among all HDMI displays. In this case, a 720p stereo HDMI signal output would be probably the safest choice. Nevertheless, the user can force the matrix to learn the EDID of the lowest capable HDMI display among others to make sure all displays are capable to play the
HDMI signals normally.
There is a method to do EDID Learning as below:
Software Control: Please refer to the Operation Approach\ Method B: Software Control through RS-232 port (Page 7~15.)
There are six embedded default EDIDs as below,
1. Full-HD(1080p@60)-24bit 2D & 2ch
2. Full-HD(1080p@60)-24bit 2D & 7.1ch
3. HD(1080i@60)(720p@60)-24bit 2D & 2ch
4. HD(1080i@60)(720p@60)-24bit 2D & 7.1ch
5. Full-HD(1080p@60)-30bit 2D & 2ch
