Connecting your Time Sleuth
To use your Time Sleuth, first connect a HDMI cable from the HDMI out port on the Time Sleuth
device to a vacant HDMI port on the display you wish to test. If your display does not have an
HDMI port, please see “Connecting to other types of display” on page 10.
Remember that, on some displays, different HDMI ports may produce different results. Some sets
have dedicated inputs for gaming mode or minimal picture processing.
Now, connect a power source to your Time Sleuth via the Mini USB connector. Many modern
televisions have USB ports which will provide ample power for the device. If your display has a
USB port like this, connect a Mini USB to USB cable between the display and the Time Sleuth.
If your display does NOT have a USB port, or you do not have the required cable, you can use a
power supply/charger from any mobile telephone that uses a Mini USB connection. So called USB
“power banks”, which are designed for emergency charging of mobile phones, are ideal as a
portable power source for your Time Sleuth.
Alternatively, you can purchase a power supply from VideoGamePerfection.com with a Time Sleuth
adapter by visiting the page here:-

Next, using the display’s controls, select the appropriate HDMI input. The Time Sleuth should then
be displayed on the screen. Your display should now look like the one shown on the next page.
