HD800 Basic Operation

Typical usage of an HD800 is to allow users to diagnose specific resolution, video timing, EDID and color space issues in any DVI
or HDMI video system. It features an HDMI output as well as an HDMI pass through to easily switch between test patterns and
content from any other digital sources, while also giving the ability to read the EDID from the input source and displaying it on the
display. It can also perform a cable test on any HDMI cable.
