6.7.9. Creating an EDID

Lightware introduced a wizard-like interface for fast and easy EDID creation. With Easy
EDID Creator it is possible to create custom EDIDs in four simple steps. By clicking on the
EEC button below Source panel, Easy EDID Creator is opened in a new window.

Step 1. Select resolution
The preferred resolution can be defined here. There are more ways to define the desired
format. You are able to select one from the drop-down list where the most common
resolutions are listed.
Step 2. Signal type
You have to decide whether you want to add HDMI support to your EDID or not. Please
note that the use of audio, non-RGB color spaces and deep color requires the HDMI mode.
Step 3. Select audio
If you have selected HDMI support in the previous step, specify the desired audio format.
The most common audio formats are listed, but the number of possible formats is greater.
If you don't find your preferred audio, you are able to add it later by using EDID editor.
Step 4. Finish
You have to give a name to your new EDID as last step. This name will be fit into the display
product descriptor, so it can be up to 13 alphanumeric characters long. You also have to
select the desired operation: you are able to upload the new EDID to the actually used
Lightware product or/and save it to a file or/and open it in the EDID editor.
Info: For more information about creating and EDID by using EEC see the User's manual of the
EDID Editor which is available at www.lightware.eu.
