Input/Output Configuration
Input Configuration panel
The Input/Output Configuration panel shows the current status of all inputs and the output.
In the
AV
Controls
panel click an input to select it for configuration.
NOTE: The signal indicator in the AV controls panel lights green when a signal is present
on the corresponding input or orange when there is no signal present.
•
Input – This number corresponds to the input number on the rear panel.
•
Signal Type – Indicates the source signal type.
•
RGBHV – The input is an analog signal.
•
Digital Video – The input is an HDMI or DVI signal.
•
HDCP Status – This column indicates the HDCP signal status for the digital inputs (3-6)
only.
•
HDCP Authorized (inputs 3 to 6 only) – Select the
HDCP
Authorized
check box
to have the input report as an HDCP authorized device. If the box is not checked the
source is blocked from encrypting its output. This may result in content not passed to
the output.
NOTE: This option is not available for analog inputs 1 and 2.
This feature influences the ability of a digital input to report as an HDCP authorized sink
to a source. Some sources encrypt their output even if the source material does not
require HDCP encryption, preventing content from being displayed on a non-HDCP
compliant display. If that happens, the display mutes the video output to black or
displays a warning message.
