Configuration

NOTE: Transmitters can be configured via PCS (see the FOX3 T 201 PCS Help File)

EDID

The FOX3 uses EDID Minder, which ensures that a source device connected to the
transmitter input continuously sees the EDID of a sink device, even if the sink is not
physically connected. By default, the EDID is set to 1080p @ 60 Hz with 2-channel audio.
There is one slot to upload custom EDID to the device.
Use PCS to upload EDID to the device (see the FOX3 T 201 PCS Help File).

HDCP

Input
The HDMI input negotiates and authenticates HDCP with the source device if the source
requires HDCP encryption. The authentication process is repeated whenever the stored
EDID is changed or updated, which is indicated by pulling HPD low.
HDCP support can be disabled for each input independently using SIS command (see
HDCP authorized device
Outputs
The output is pre-authenticated and encrypted, in accordance with the configured HDCP
output mode using PCS (see the FOX3 T 201 PCS Help File).
If an output requires encryption, but the connected sink device cannot be authenticated,
that output displays a green screen.
