Chapter 16 Testing EDID

4. Capture the EDID from the connected display device by entering the following

command:

EDA<port>:GDID

Where

port is the HDMI output port (1 or 2) that the display is connected to. For

example, the command below loads an EDID from a display device connected to the
882’s HDMI Out port 1.

EDA1:GDID

Note: The EDAport:GDID is a command that is new with Release 2.3.0.

5. Store the captured EDID in the 882’s internal file system by entering the following

command:

DIDA

filename

Where

filename is the name of a file in the default directory identified by

DIDP

. For

example, the command below store an EDID to the default EDID path.

DIDA myedid1

If you want to store the EDID file in a location that is not the default path, you can either
list the path explicitely on the

DIDA

command line or change the EDID path with

DIDP

.

For example, the command below loads an EDID from a different directory in
flashmem.

DIDA /tffs0/library/userdata/myedid1

6. (Optional) Use the captured EDID to emulate the display device on the analyzer by

entering the following command:

EDE<port>:DIDU

Where

port is the HDMI input (Rx) port (1 or 2) that you want to configure to emulate

the EDID. For example, the command below loads the EDID stored in the EDID edit
buffer for emulation into the HDMI input (Rx) port 2.

EDE2:DIDU
