NAME
     xcmddc - monitor EDID fetching over i2c

SYNOPSIS
     xcmddc [ -l [-v] ]
     xcmddc [ -d POSITIONAL_NUMBER [--force-output] [--identify] ]
     xcmddc [ --i2c NODE_NAME [--force-output] [--identify] ]
     xcmddc [-h]

DESCRIPTION
     The xcmddc tool fetches a monitors EDID data block over a i2c communication
     channel.

OPTIONS
     -l     list  devices.  Only devices which provide a EDID data block and the
	    EDID's header is valid will be counted.

	    -v show each device by its node name.

     -d=POSITIONAL_NUMBER , -d POSITIONAL_NUMBER
	    position in device list.  The numbering of monitors starts with zero
	    for the first device. To get the number of all available devices use
	    "xcmddc -l". The EDID data block is dumped to stdout.

	    --force-output switch EDID header verificatcationn off.

	    --identify dump the error code as integer to stdout.

     --i2c=NODE_NAME , --i2c NODE_NAME
	    select the i2c device node file. The EDID data block  is  dumped  to
	    stdout.  The --i2c option is much faster than the -d option. This is
	    because of much fewer timeouts reuired for counting  the  valid  i2c
	    device with the -d option.

	    --force-output switch EDID header verification off.

	    --identify dump the error code as integer to stdout.

GENERAL OPTIONS
     -v, --verbose
	    increase verbosity

EXAMPLES
     Count available i2c->monitor devices:
	    xcmddc -l

     List available i2c->monitor devices by name:
	    xcmddc -lv

     Dump EDID from first i2c node:
	    xcmddc -d 0

     Dump EDID by i2c device name:
	    xcmddc --i2c /dev/i2c-5

     Print a help text:
	    xcmddc -h
