Fig. 17 - EDID menu
EDID is a metadata format used by displays to indicate their preferred format. A Midra™ 4K unit receives
EDIDs from connected inputs and outputs. It is possible to store these EDIDs in a memory called EDID bank.
It is then possible to overwrite the preferred format of inputs and outputs.
EDID bank
All Midra™ 4K units have 14 preinstalled EDIDs by default which correspond to standard formats for
DisplayPort and HDMI outputs. In addition, the EDID bank can store up to 64 EDID memories saved from
connected input/outputs, custom formats or EDIDs files imported from computer.

To save EDIDs in the EDID bank, drag and drop EDIDs from inputs and outputs to the EDID bank.
Replace an Input EDID with an EDID from the bank
To set a new preferred format on an Input, drag and drop an EDID from the bank to the input slot.
To reset an input preferred format, hover over the input and click the reset icon .
