EDID Tab Screen

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is used to find the highest signal

resolution that is compatible with both the source and the destination (sink)

devices. When an HDMI source device is initially connected to the ROI Mini-

Converter, the ROI sends its EDID information to that source. The source uses this

information to decide what format to send.

NOTE: The ROI-SDI does not have an EDID tab screen because it does not support EDID.
