Introduction

EDID 101 Features

EDID Minder — Enables continuous EDID communication to the input source. EDID provides information about a display identity. The EDID Minder continuous EDID communication helps ensure the source boots up properly and reliably outputs content to the display.

EDID Record — Enables the device to record EDID directly from a display.

Pre-programmed EDID — The EDID 101 contains pre‑programmed EDIDs with the most common display native resolutions for both 50 and 60 Hz. Along with the native rate, each pre-programmed EDID also lists other common video rates for use by the video source.

NConfiguring the EDID 101 rotary and DIP switches allow a user to select a pre-programmed EDID based on the native rate of a display (i.e. 1280x1024 @ 60 Hz) and a desired signal type (i.e. digital), but does not necessarily force a video source to output that rate. Since EDID is not limited to reporting a single video rate (i.e. the native rate), each Extron EDID also lists other common video rates for use by the video source.

Powered from the video source — The EDID 101 is powered from a VGA or DVI video source for normal operation. An optional external 12 VDC power supply for remote learning capability is also available.

Power LED — The side panel LED illuminates green when power is connected and flashes red during EDID recording.

Compact size — Small form factor enables use in places where space is a premium.
