EDID Designer - Using the EDID Designer

Note: Some devices, by default, manipulate the written EDID to better suit

their device properties. If desired, click the checkbox to prevent the device

from modifying the data. In devices not supporting this prevention, the

checkbox is grayed out. Note that modification of the written EDID might

occur.

2. Click Yes to write the EDID to the input or No to discard and exit the action.

4.4 Opening an EDID

Monitor, output and default EDIDs are read-only. Local EDID files and inputs are

read-write and editable.

To open (read or edit) an EDID:

 Drag the selected EDID cube to the desktop panel and drop it.

While writing to the desktop, the source cube shows +.

After writing, the source cube shows an eye icon (read-only) or a

pencil icon (read-write) (see Figure 2).

4.5 Editing an EDID

To edit an EDID:

1. Click the desired EDID cube and drag it to the central EDID panel.

The EDID opens for viewing or editing.

Only Input and Local EDID files (from the disk) are editable. Monitor, Output and

Default EDIDs are read-only.

2. Click on the desired tab, make any necessary changes. For a detailed

description of tabs and their parameters, see Section 5.

Note: After making any change, the Save and Discard buttons and their

reminder asterisk are enabled.

Note also that editing a new EDID before saving or discarding a previous

EDID leaves the asterisk reminder on the source file. Before writing this

EDID to an input, it must be recalled and saved, otherwise the unchanged

source file will be written to the input.
