3.3 DDC/EDID Support
For best compatibility with source devices (ex: a PC), an extension device (DVI-TX in this case) should provide
an appropriate DDC/EDID profile with the proper resolution and timing information. This helps ensure best
compatibility with display devices connected at the remote end.
The DVI-TX supports a simple yet very flexible DDC/EDID management scheme:
 The built-in factory-default DDC/EDID profile supports a number of standard resolutions and timing
information that is widely compatible with many displays.
 A specific DDC/EDID profile can be copied from a particular display and stored inside the DVI-TX’s non-
volatile memory. This method enables the best possible compatibility with a specific display that would
otherwise not work properly if simply using the factory-default DDC/EDID profile.
 Finally, the DVI-TX supports a “pass-through” mode, where the DDC/EDID profile of a locally attached
display is passed directly to the video source. This can be very helpful in diagnosing certain resolution or
timing related display issues, but generally is not used on a permanent basis (though it is safe to do so).
