About the EDID 101
The EDID 101D and EDID 101V are compact, economical
EDID Minder ™ devices that record and manage display EDID
(Extended Display Identification Data). A source device
normally uses EDID to identify the signal type (i.e. analog or
digital), the native rate of the display, how to correctly output
the preferred native timing, additional rates supported by the
display, and various other information.
The Extron EDID 101 is a standalone EDID Minder device that
emulates EDID to a DVI or VGA source. It helps ensure the
video source boots up correctly and constantly outputs video.
The EDID 101 records the EDID from a display and supplies it to
the video source. In addition, there are pre-programmed EDIDs
matched with two refresh rates (50 and 60 Hz) and two signal
types (digital and analog).
