EDID Minder

The PVT RGB D (EDID), PVT RGB D Plus (EDID), and PVT RGB AAP (EDID)
incorporates EDID Minder, which allows the transmitter to communicate the
appropriate EDID information to the source, ensuring correct video output
resolution.
The 5-pole EDID Minder settings DIP switch is located on the rear of the
wallplate. Once installed, these switch settings are only accessible by
removing the device from its installed location.
The factory EDID setting (default) is 1024x768@60 Hz (preset 2).
The EDID Minder has two modes; a Preset (Emulation) mode and a Learn mode.

Preset Mode is available on all PVT RGB (EDID) models, and allows selection of
pre-programed EDID rates, as shown in the table below.

Learn Mode is available only on the PVT RGB D Plus model, and enables the displays
specific EDID information to be recorded and emulated by the input wallplate.
