Testing response of source to EDID
The analyzer can emulate different HDMI/DVI displays using a built-in, configurable EDID
structure. With this capability an HDMI/DVI source device can be tested for its ability to
handle an EDID structure received from virtually any DDC-compatible display. You first
have to configure the generator to support the HDMI/DVI signal source and enable
measuring of internal signals. You then configure the EDID in accordance with a particular
display. Use the following procedures.
