HDCP Enable
Disable HDCP on input: The connected source will detect that the
▪
matrix is not HDCP-compliant and turn off authentication if the
content allows it.
Allow HDCP 1.4 only *: The connected source will detect that the matrix
▪
is compliant with HDCP 1.4 but not compliant with HDCP 2.2.
▪ Allow HDCP 2.2 and HDCP 1.4: The connected source will detect
that the matrix is compliant with HDCP 2.2.
▪ High Value mode (limit switching to HDCP 2.2 sinks): Any version of
HDCP is allowed on the input but the incoming signal is always
internally upconverted to HDCP 2.2 content and thus cannot be
switched to HDCP 1.4 sinks.
*The availability of this setting depends on the hardware version of
the input board (V1x_) and the port type (HDMI). The hardware version
can be found in Status Tab in the LDC or in the
Device Info submenu in the LCD.
Resetting the default values: HDCP = HDCP 2.2 and HDCP 1.4.
