Testing HDMI Sink Devices

Overview of HDMI display testing

This section describes how to test digital displays with HDMI interfaces. The HDMI option

enables the 882 to test HDMI-compliant displays. With the HDMI option, the 882 outputs

HDMI-compatible TMDS video and data packets containing audio and auxiliary

information.

Note: This chapter does not provide HDMI compliance test procedures. HDMI EDID

compliance testing procedures are provided in “

Testing EDID for HDMI compliance in

display (sink) devices

” on page 492.

The HDMI option provides the following features:

•

Advanced E-EDID parsing

•

Generation of all EIA/CEA-861-D formats below 165 MHz (Deep Color supports TMDS

rates up to 225MHz)

•

Pixel repetition test capabilities

•

Internal sine wave 882 up to 8 channels and external SPDIF audio input for audio

testing

•

AFD test capabilities

•

Automatic and manual InfoFrame configuration

Physical connections

The 882 has two HDMI OUT(Tx) connectors for testing HDMI displays. In addition, the

882 also has an SPDIF-A/V connector which allows external SPDIF audio to be input to

the HDMI signal. To use the SPDIF-A/V connector, an RCA-to-VGA cable is included with

the 882.
