Procedures for Passive Monitoring the Upstream Devices while Emulating an HDMI Sink Device
with the Auxiliary Channel Analyzer on HDMI Devices

This subsection provides procedures for ACA passive and emulation monitoring of HDMI devices.

Note

: You will have to obtain a license key for the ACA passive monitoring option to use the feature.

1. Connect the HDMI system devices to the 780B as shown in the diagram above and described as follows:

a. The HDMI source is connected to the 780B

Upstream Link IN

connector.

b. The HDMI repeater device input is connected the 780B

Upstream Link OUT

connector.

c. The HDMI repeater device output is connected to the

780B HDMI IN

connector.

2. From the

Home

screen (shown below) touch select the

Aux Channel Analyzer

activation button.

The

ACA Setup Options

screen appears:
