Quad 1-to-2 HDMI™ Distribution Amplifier Crestron HD-DA-2-QUAD
Using Crestron Toolbox, the HD-DA-2-QUAD can test HDMI sources and displays
for limitations due to HDCP keys. The number of HDCP keys specify the number of
display devices that can be connected to a source over HDMI using HDCP
authentication. For more information, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file.
EDID
EDID is a piece of data that HDMI receivers use to indicate their capabilities to the
HDMI sources.
The HD-DA-2-QUAD distributes HDMI signals from each input channel to two
corresponding HDMI outputs. According to the HDMI standard, HDMI sources are
expected to only deliver audio and video formats that are supported by the
destination. To do this, the HD-DA-2-QUAD reads the EDID information from
devices connected to the outputs and determines the video resolutions and audio
format to send to the input to program EDID on the inputs.
Using Crestron Toolbox’ DMTool utility, the HD-DA-2-QUAD is configured using
the “Best Common” algorithm to determine what EDID information is sent to each
source.

Only resolutions that are available in all of the displays that are connected will be
transmitted to the source. This ensures that any video signal coming in from the
source will be able to be shown on all displays. If certain resolutions are only
available on a subset of the displays, they will be omitted.
“Best Common” can be modified to use information from just a subset of displays by
deselecting them in Crestron Toolbox.
By managing which displays are used for the EDID calculations, you can maximize
the resolution of each source while ensuring that the source can be shown on each
display where it is needed.
The EDID calculations also affect audio formats. Each HDMI receiver sends its
supported audio formats to the source in the following format:
<Format> <Maximum # of channels> <sampling freq supported>
