Settings and Adjustments

EDID Rotary:

➔EDID authentication is provided from the KD-FIX418 unit to the connected input /

source device.

➔The EDID ﬁle (AKA “handshake”) is selected using the EDID rotary on the unit and

provides a list of compatible video and audio formats as well as digital data, informing

the source device what it should output.

➔Most sources will comply with a new EDID ﬁle without a power-cycle, but each source

may behave differently.

➔Adjustments may be necessary to help achieve desired video and audio formatting

and may speed up sync time.

Modes

➔Bypass: No compression applied

➔Auto Compress

»Compresses 18Gbps video signals to 10.2Gbps.

»Must be paired with 2nd KD-FIX418 unit to decompress signal for acceptance by

video display

»No compression applied to ≤10.2Gbps signals

➔Compress

»Compression applied to all signals (18Gbps, 10.2Gbps, <10.2Gbps)

»Resultant signal bandwidth is ½ original signal bandwidth

»Must be paired with 2nd KD-FIX418 unit set to Decompress mode for acceptance

by video display

➔Decompress/ Auto Down-Convert

»Decompress: Restores compressed signal to 18Gbps for acceptance

by video display

»Must be paired with 2nd KD-FIX418 unit set to Compress mode

»Auto Down-Convert: Down converts all signal > 10.2Gbps

»Resultant down-converted signal is 4K@60 [4:2:0] 8bit (10.2Gbps)

»Down-convert mode works independently.

Does not require 2nd KD-FIX418 unit.

Input Boost

➔When set On, EQ levels of the HDMI input are set HIGH

➔Slightly degraded signals (ie pixel loss, ﬂickering image) may be resolved

➔Severely degraded signals may be improved, but may not be completely resolved

»Use shorter length HDMI cables for best results

»Maximum one active/directional HDMI cable may be used.

»KD-FIX418 should be installed at display side for these instances

Control Rotary:

Choose the desired setting for hot plug detection control,

bandwidth compression/decompression, and boost mode.

Power cycle unit after changing settings.

Forced HPD On/Bypass

➔In cases of many layers of connectivity or non-standard

devices in-line, hot plug detection (HPD) may be lost or

drop below standard levels, leading to the video source

not detecting a display/sync device and not outputting a signal. A display device may

also not detect a connected source in cases of failed hot plug detection.

➔If set to On, Hot Plug Detection (HPD) voltage is forced at the HDMI input connection

of the KD-FIX418. The connected source device will be fed a constant voltage to

inform the device that a partner (output/display) is always connected and active.

➔If set to Bypass, Hot Plug Detection (HPD) voltage is bypassed from connected output/

display to the input/source

Bandwidth Compression

➔KD-FIX418 can be set to compress or decompress the TMDS (audio and video) signal

enabling 18Gbps video signals to be extended via legacy 10.2Gbps cabling.

➔

IMPORTANT: COMPRESSION/DECOMPRESSION REQUIRES

TWO (2) KD-FIX418 UNITS

»One (1) unit set to Compression mode (typically at video source)

»One (1) unit set to Decompression mode (typically at video display)
