noise error test on the TMDS R,G,B
channels of an HDMI cable.
CBLT?
<x errors>
Where x errors is the number of
errors detected on R, G and B
channels.
To run a pseudo random noise
error test on the TMDS R,G,B
channels of an HDMI cable:
CBLT?
0 errors
CBL2? Runs continuity test on +5V, Hot
Plug and DDC leads in an HDMI
cable.
CBL2?
<+5v results>
>Hot Plug results>
<DDC results>
Where +5V results, hot plug results
and DDC results indicate Pass or
Fail for each lead or lead pair.
To run a cable test on the +5V,
DDC and hot plug leads:

frame. Valid values are 0-250.
Default value is 10.
You can query the current value
with:
PDAX:FRMS?
To specify that 100 incoming
frames will be used to compare
with the reference frame:
PDAX:FRMS 100
PDAX:REFG Enables or disables auto reference
capturing for the Frame Compare
test. If this parameter is disabled
you have to manually capture a
reference frame.
PDAX: REFG < enable >
Where enable is either 0 to disable
or 1 to enable auto reference
capturing.
Default value is o to disable.
You can query the current value
with:
PDAX: REFG?
To enable auto reference
capturing:
