Defining the EDID profile to be used

The EDID information (Extended Display Identification Data) of a monitor inform the

graphics card of a connected computer about the technical features of the device.

The EDID profile of the monitor, which is connected to the user module, is not

available at the target module. Therefore, the target module transmits a standard

profile to the computer. The EDID information of this profile are optimised for the

majority of available graphics cards.

We provide additional profiles for special resolutions.
