MX-FR Series Modular Matrix Frames – User's Manual 105
Timing Parameters
Supported Boards:
▪ MX-HDMI-OB; MX-DVI-HDCP-OB; MX-HDMI-TP-OB; CPU-OB (Preview output)
Description: The system continuously measures the parameters of the signals. The answer consists of 16
data bytes and every data byte is represented as a two-digit hexadecimal number. The parameters could be
useful for advanced debugging processes.
For more information about the measured values, please contact Lightware Support.
Port Parameters and Settings
Supported Boards:
▪ MX-HDMI-3D-OB, -A, -S; MX-DVI-4K-OB
▪ MX-TPS-OB, -A, -S; MX-TPS2-OB-P, -AP, -SP; MX-4TPS2-4HDMI-OB, -A, -S, -P, -AP, -SP
Description:
The actual settings are in the response; see the legend for the details.
Setting the Parameters
The signal type is set to DVI, the other parameters have not been changed. The second, third,
and fourth parameters are 'x' in all cases (because of compatibility reasons). Use the 'x' character to keep
the actual value of a parameter. The response contains the new settings in the <OUT_SET> block; see the
details in the Legend.

<GEN_INFO> block
Format: G<a><b><c><d><e>
G11101
Sink device is attached and HDMI signal is routed to the port. HDCP is disabled and hotplug is detected.
<video> block
INFO: This block is present only if valid video signal is present on the given port.
The resolution, refresh rate, scan mode, color space and 3D information are described; startting with V.
Format: V<Resolution>,<Hsync>,<Color_space><3D_format>
V1280x720p60,450,00
The signal resolution is 1280x720 by progressive scan at 60 Hz vertical refresh rate, RGB 4:4:4, color space.
The frequency of the horizontal sync is 450 kHz and the signal is in 2D format.
