EDID

EDID is a data structure provided by a digital display to describe its capabilities to a video source (i.e., graphics card or set-top box). It is what enables a modern personal computer to know what kinds of monitors are connected to it.

The EDID section of the HDMI INPUT screen specifies the EDID profile that is selected for use. Only source devices that use the selected EDID profile are allowed to send signals through the device.

To select an EDID profile to support, select one of the profiles to support from the dropdown list, and click Apply CEDID.

If a profile is not listed in the menu, a custom profile can be loaded onto the device. To load a custom CEDID profile, follow this procedure:

From the Select drop-down list, select Custom.
