Encoder Diagnostics
Looking at the page from left to right you will see the following columns -
NAME (AUTO)
: ( Example: Tx1, Tx2, Tx3, etc. ) This info is automatically generated by the MXNet control
system for keeping internal track of the connected Encoders. This field is grayed out, and cannot be edited.
CUSTOM NAME
: The Encoder CUSTOM NAME listing is pulled from the CONFIGURE page, and cannot be
edited within the ~SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS~ overlay/page.
NETWORK CONNECTION
: The NETWORK CONNECTION column is tied directly to the adjoining
CONNECTION SPEED column, and indicates the quality of the network cable connection. You will see three
ratings: GOOD (Green), MARGINAL (Yellow), and FAIL (Red).
CONNECTION SPEED*
: If the CONNECTION SPEED = “1G”, the NETWORK CONNECTION column will
indicate that you have a “GOOD” (Green) network connection. If the CONNECTION SPEED = 100MB or less,
the NETWORK CONNECTION column will indicate that you have a “MARGINAL” (Yellow) connection. If the
NETWORK CONNECTION function is unable detect any connection to a Encoder, then the NETWORK
CONNECTION column will indicate “FAIL” (Red) and the CONNECTION SPEED column will display “NO
SIGNAL”.
HDMI VIDEO
: This column indicates the outgoing HDMI VIDEO signal resolution and timing. For example a
4K
60Hz signal will display as “3840x2160/60Hz”.
HDR
: Response = “YES” or “NO”. This column indicates if the HDMI VIDEO signal contains HDR metadata or
not.
COLOR DEPTH
: Response = 8 BIT or 10 BIT. If the HDR Response = “NO” and the COLOR DEPTH = “8
BIT”, then the Encoder is sending an SDR signal. If the HDR Response = “YES”, and the COLOR DEPTH = “8
BIT” then the Encoder is sending a Dolby Vision signal. Finally, if the HDR Response = “YES” and the COLOR
DEPTH =“ 10 BIT”, then the Encoder is sending an HDR10, HDR10+, or HLG signal.
HDMI AUDIO
: Response =
“
PCM” or “NON PCM
”
. This column indicates the HDMI AUDIO encoding signal.
HOT-PLUG DETECT/RESET
: Click on the “RESET” text to force reconnection. The Green light indicates that
a
HOT-PLUG DETECT has been identified by the system
.
HDCP VERS
: Response = “1.4” or “2.2”. HDMI signals that require less than 10mb of bandwidth will use
HDCP VERS. “1.4” and signals requiring 18gb of bandwidth will use HDCP VERS. “2.2”.
Encoder LIGHTS
: Encoder lighting controls ( mini-display, PWR, LINK, and Network link/activity ) are actuated
using rotating toggle/clicks: Click once to cause all lights on the Encoder to FLASH, click again to Turn OFF all
lights, and click once more to Turn ON all lights. You have the option to actuate this feature with individual
Encoders or ALL Encoders. This is a very helpful tool when troubleshooting the MXNet system.
