3.2 Defining EDID
The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID
1
3.3 Recommendations for Best Performance
) is a data-structure,
provided by a display, to describe its capabilities to a graphics card (that is
connected to the display’s source). The EDID enables the VM-8H/
VM-16H to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to the output. The
EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, the product type, the timing data
supported by the display, the display size, luminance data and (for digital
displays only) the pixel mapping data.
To achieve the best performance:
• Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding
interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching,
and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality
cables)
• Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight
coils
• Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and
position your HDMI distributors away from moisture, excessive
sunlight and dust
