5. Store the captured EDID in the 882's internal file system by entering the following
command:
DIDA filename
Where filename is the name of a file in the default directory identified by DIDP. For

list the path explicitely on the
For example, the command below loads an EDID from a different directory in
flashmem.

6. (Optional) Use the captured EDID to emulate the display device on the analyzer by
entering the following command:
EDE<port>:DIDU
Where port is the HDMI input (Rx) port (1 or 2) that you want to configure to emulate
