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