Setting Source list of formats
The 882 provides a Source list of standard (pre-defined) formats. The Source list can be
set automatically when connecting to a EDID-compatible display. Otherwise, you can
manually set which formats are listed.
To automatically set Source list of formats for EDID-compatible display:
When testing EDID-compatible displays, the 882 can automatically update the Source list
to include only formats supported by the display under test. To do this:
1. Connect the 882 to the display you want to test.
2. Press the Sink key. The following information appears on the 882's display.
Manufacturer:SNY
Product Code:144
Serial#:7011007
Week:20 Year:1998
3. Press the Options key. The following information appears on the 882's display.
-EDID Formats
+HP Bypass
-Emulate
4. Choose the EDID Formats item by pressing the adjacent soft key. A + appears next to
EDID Formats indicating enabled.
The 882 loads the Source list with formats supported by the connected display
(hot-plug formats read via EDID structure of attached display).
5. To redisplay all formats, press the soft key adjacent to EDID Formats. A '-' (minus sign)
next to EDID Formats indicates it is disabled.
To bypass hot plug detection:
If the display under test has not implemented hot plug correctly, you will have to bypass
hot plug detection in the 882 to enable video output.
1. Connect the 882 to the display you want to test.
2. Press the Sink key. The following information appears on the 882's display.
