  • Page 6: Introduction

    Introduction The Atlona Etude™ Sync (AT-ETU-SYNC) provides EDID emulation and Hot Plug Detect communication between HDMI® sink and source devices. It detects and corrects for signal integrity issues associated with cabling or connections, and can resolve compatibility problems between a source and sink. The Etude Sync is compatible with high dynamic range (HDR) formats and is HDCP 2.2 compliant.

    Panel Description Front Rear Glows red when the unit is powered. SOURCE Indicates the source status. Refer to Performing System Tests (page 12) for more information. SINK Indicates the sink status. Refer to Performing System Tests (page 12) for more information. Reports the status of the 5V signal from the source device.
  • Page 8: Installation

    Installation 1. Connect an HDMI cable from the source to the HDMI IN port on the AT-ETU-SYNC. 2. Connect an HDMI cable from the sink (display) to the HDMI OUT port on the AT-ETU-SYNC. IMPORTANT: The AT-ETU-SYNC is a High Dynamic Range (HDR) device. For best performance, use premium HDMI cables that are HDR-certified.

  • Page 10: Learning An Edid

    Device Operation Learning an EDID The AT-ETU-SYNC has the ability to learn the EDID from another device, using EDID mode 0. Once learned, the EDID data will be read by the source, providing all the necessary details of the type of signal that will be sent to the sink device.
  • Page 11 Device Operation During the process, the LEARN button will flash blue as the EDID data is copied into memory. Flashes blue while learning EDID If the EDID was successfully learned, then the LEARN button will turn off. If an error was encountered during the operation, then the LEARN button will flash red.
  • Page 12: Performing System Tests

    Device Operation Performing System Tests The AT-ETU-SYNC features a TEST button which tests the source, sink, or the entire system to aid in troubleshooting connectivity issues. In-Line Testing 1. Power the AT-ETU-SYNC. 2. Position the AT-ETU-SYNC between the source and sink. The actual position of the AT-ETU-SYNC will depend upon the setup.
  • Page 13 Device Operation 4. The SOURCE, SINK, 5V, and HPD indicators will display the current testing results. Refer to the table, below. State Description SOURCE Solid green Source is HDCP 2.2. Flashing green Source is HDCP 1.4. Solid red The source is not HDCP-compliant. SINK Solid green Sink is HDCP 2.2.
  • Page 14: Source Testing

    Device Operation Source Testing 1. Power the AT-ETU-SYNC. 2. Connect an HDMI cable from the source to the HDMI IN port on the AT-ETU-SYNC. 3. Press and release the TEST button on the front panel of the AT-ETU-SYNC. 4. The SOURCE and 5V indicators will display the testing results. Note that since a sink device is not present, the HPD and SINK indicators are ignored.

    Device Operation Command Line This section provides a short list of commands available for the AT-ETU-SYNC. Configuration In order to use these commands, the AT-ETU-SYNC must be connected to a computer from which the commands are issued. 1. Connect a USB-A to mini-USB cable between the computer and the FW port on the AT-ETU-SYNC. IMPORTANT: The USB type-A port on the computer must be able to provide 5V 1A of power.

  • Page 17: Command List

    Device Operation Command List Commands are case-sensitive. If the command fails or is entered incorrectly, then the feedback is “Command FAILED”. Commands are sent using RS-232. There should be a least a 500 millisecond delay between each command sent to the unit. IMPORTANT: Each command is terminated with a carriage-return (0x0d) and the feedback is terminated with a carriage-return and line-feed (0x0a).
  • Page 18 Device Operation EDIDWrite Writes the specified EDID to the AT-ETU-SYNC mode 0 memory bank. If the operation is successful, the raw EDID data will be displayed as feedback. Otherwise, the “Command FAILED” message will be returned with the feedback. Syntax EDIDWrite X Parameter Description...
