The EDID viewer option (PHSXO-EDID available for the PHABRIX TAG only), displays both RAW ancillary data (fig 2) and decoded EDID information in a tabular display. It obtains the EDID information using a dedicated SFP and cable which must be purchased separately (PHSFP-HDMI-OUT). For those customers requiring support for 3G formats, an additional license will be needed. (PHSXO-3GADV) Key applications for the EDID viewer are testing video walls in MCR installations, OB applications, professional AV infrastructure and manufacturing companies. The data example displayed in the table (fig 1) indicates the manufacturer’s basic EDID characteristics of the monitor under test, such as native resolution and colour support. (PHSFP-HDMI-OUT) Must be ordered in conjunction with the EDID viewer option to connect to a monitor. Along with EDID display the SFP enables the generator on the TAG to transmit test patterns out through the HDMI SFP.
