Important

This menu is designed for advanced users only. Do not reprogram EDID unless it is necessary.

EDID is a VESA standard data format that contains information about a display device and its capabilities, including the preferred (as well as the allowed) device resolutions.

The DCS-200’s EDID file is stored in non-volatile memory. This file is read by a computer's DVI graphics card during boot-up, when its DVI output is connected to a DVI-I input connector on the DCS-200 system. The DCS-200 must be powered on first for the EDID information to be read.

The following functions are available:

Input — selects the inputs that you wish to program: ALL, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.

EDID Format — displays the current EDID format, and enables you to select a new format to program into memory. Press SEL to program the preferred DVI resolution, as defined on the EDID Format line.

Note

The DCS-200 can program the EDID EEPROM with the DVI cable connected.

When SEL is pressed, the following message is briefly displayed.
