Testing HDMI Inputs – DVI to HDMI Inputs
Some displays contain an HDMI input. The HDMI signal interface is, in most regards, the same
as DVI, but utilizes a different connector. The VideoPro DVI output and DVI video test signal
may be used to test a display’s HDMI input. All HDMI inputs and decoding circuits are
backwards compatible with DVI test signals.
To input a signal to the display’s HDMI input
requires an adapter cable. An optional adapter
cable is available from Sencore. The DVI to
HDMI adapter cable is Sencore part number
DH1000. Connect the DH1000, or an
equivalent adapter cable, from the DVI output
jack of the VideoPro to the HDMI input of the
display.
Select either the HDTV/SDTV – DVI or
VESA/Mac – DVI selections in the Signal
Type menu. Use the HDTV/SDTV–DVI
when testing HDTV/SDTV monitors. Use the
VESA/Mac – DVI signal type when testing
computer monitors, data projectors and multi-
media projectors. Note: Many multi-media
displays are capable of receiving and
decoding both HDTV/SDTV and VESA/Mac
signal formats.
Select a signal format from the Format menu
that provides a signal resolution within the
range of the display. Select the HDMI Input
from the monitor’s input menu. The monitor
should decode the DVI signal and display the
video test pattern.
