PiKVM V4 Plus has a simple way to read and adopt display identifiers like model and serial number from a physical monitor connected to OUT2 port (it's also used for HDMI passthrough). This way, the target host will recognize PiKVM as your display.

To adopt display identifiers, connect the display to OUT2 port and run these commands:

[root@pikvm ~]# rw
[root@pikvm ~]# kvmd-edidconf --import-display-ids --apply
[root@pikvm ~]# ro

Now the display can be unplugged. PiKVM will remember the new settings (in /etc/kvmd/tc358743-edid.hex) and apply them immediately (--apply option).
