DIDL to the Rx and issues a hot
plug pulse.
Note: can be used in conjunction
with the HPPW command to
produce hot plug pulses of varying
witdths.
HPPW
Sets the hot plug pulse width.
IFAU
Reads infoframes.
IFAD?
Displays the contents of a specific
type of infoframe.
TMAU
Invokes timing analyzer.
TMAX:HTOT?
Reads horizontal total pixels.
TMAX:HRES?
Reads horizontal active pixels.
TMAX:HSPD?
Reads horizontal sync pulse delay
TMAX:HSPW?
Reads horizontal sync pulse width
Reads vertical total pixels (lines)
TMAX:VTOT?
TMAX:VRES?
Reads vertical active pixels (lines)

header number assigned to the
infoframe type in the HDMI
specification:
- VSIF = 81
- AVI = 82
- SPD = 83
- AUD = 84
- MPEG = 85
To initiate a timing test:
TMAU
Note: Then use one or more of the
TMAX commands below.
To read horizontal total pixels:
TMAX:HTOT?
To read horizontal active pixels:
TMAX:HRES?
To read horizontal sync pulse
delay:
TMAX:HSPD?
To read horizontal sync pulse
width:
TMAX:HSPW?
read vertical total pixels (lines):
TMAX:VTOT?
To read vertical active pixels
(lines):
TMAX:VRES?
To read vertical sync pulse delay:
TMAX:VSPD?
