Through this manual setting, the device will be able to re-set once the selected conditions are fulfilled at the same time, this will ensure the quality and stability when signals transmission. Sensitivity for fail-safe mechanism. quality in wire, please choice 48, vice versa Select the STD for video error, according to HDMI association, the tolerance of Bit Error in transmit should be less than 10-9 ,we use -9 to stand for this, so if you are in high tolerance in signals transmit error, please choice -8 for standard.
