Chapter 16
DVI Output
The measuring instrument is equipped with a DVI/HDMI interface for connecting a Full HD TV set.
This allows you to check the functionality of the DVD/HDMI interface on an LCD screen, for example.
The DVI interface is on the top of the instrument.
The instrument cannot output a video signal to the DVI output and to the internal instrument display
at the same time. Do not tune the instrument to a station if you wish access the monitor function. This
function can be accessed via
MODE
->
Ext.
Monitor
.
When you call up the
DVI out, LCD off
menu item, the screen of the instrument darkens and the
video signals are only output through the DVI output. For this reason you should connect the
instrument to a suitable display device via the DVI output before the instrument is switched over.
When the instrument is switched off and restarted, the picture is shown again on the internal display.
DVI stands for “Digital Visual Interface” (HDMI means “High-Definition Multimedia Interface”).
Physically, the interface is designed as a DVI-I socket. However, the protocol is HDMI-compliant.
This means that both video and audio data are transmitted. The measuring instrument can be
connected to the HDMI input of a TV set using a DVI/HDMI adapter. However, the measuring
receiver does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP prevents digital
and audio material from being tapped within the HDMI connection. HDCP is required by the playback
program. If an HDTV program requires HDCP, the measuring instrument cannot transmit the data via
the DVI/HDMI interface. The connected TV set remains blank in this case.
Important!
-
The device’s screen is dimmed when the DVI output is active.
-
The screen resolution is fixed at 1920x1080i.
