These procedures assume the following prerequisite steps have been completed:
You have created a CDF and put it in the proper directory on the 980.
You have provisioned the 980 HDMI Pr
otocol Analyzer module’s Rx port with an EDID that supports all
source features and functions.
You have verified that you have the proper license for running the HDMI Source Compliance test option.
That you have upgraded your 980 (if necessary) to a suitable released version.
Note
: The easiest way to verify that you have the proper license and that the 980 Protocol Analyzer is
equipped with the proper released version is to run a simple quick test through the 980 GUI Manager. We
recommend that you use the e
mbedded 980 GUI Manager through the 980’s touch screen display. For
instruction on running the HDMI Compliance test through the 980 GUI Manager refer to the User Guides
available on the Quantum Data website.
The commands used in the sample procedures below have to be incorporated into the Automated Test System.
Comments are provided to help you understand the purpose and sequence of commands in the test process
necessary for compliance test automation. All commands shown at the
p-scope>
prompt need to be executed
by an Automated Test System.
For a description of each command, refer to the command reference at:
3.4.1
Basic Protocol Test – Test ID 7-17 Example
The following sequence of commands are used to run the 7-17 test.
Initialization
p-scope> hdmitx disable
// disables the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer Tx port.
p-scope> slink down
// disables the Encrypted Link Analyzer mode.
p-scope> mon hdmi
// configuring the 980 for HDMI (rather than DVI).
p-scope> hp
// toggle hot plug to cause an EDID read by the source.
Asserting 1sec HP pulse
Note
: The Automated Test System now has to put the source device into the proper video and audio mode (i.e.
resolution, colorimetry, audio format etc.). If you are certain that the source is in the proper mode executing the
following command (vinfo) is optional. Otherwise the Automated Test System would have to parse out the
command response and issue a notification to the operator.
p-scope> vinfo
// verify incoming video parameters.
