3.1 HDCP Compliance
If an HDMI signal is HDCP protected, it can only appear on HDMI and HDBaseT outputs that are connected to HDCP compliant displays.
The VP-773A will not output an HDCP protected source to a display that is not HDCP compliant. Instead it will show a green screen.
In the dual window display mode (see Section 7.2), even if only one of the inputs is HDCP protected, and is output to a non-compliant display, it will affect the entire screen and turn it green.
3.2 About HDBaseT™ Technology
HDBaseT™ is an advanced all-in-one connectivity technology (supported by the HDBaseT Alliance). It is particularly suitable in the ProAV – and also the home – environment as a digital networking alternative, where it enables you to replace numerous cables and connectors by a single LAN cable used to transmit, for example, uncompressed full high-definition video, audio, IR, as well as various control signals.
The products described in this user manual are HDBaseT certified.
3.3 Using Twisted Pair Cable
Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our digital twisted pair products; BC−HDKat6a (CAT 6 23 AWG cable) significantly outperforms regular CAT 5 / CAT 6 cables.
We strongly recommend that you use shielded twisted pair cable.

Volatile parameter
Auto Positioning – to search the input image during the tuning process and automatically position it on the output window in a perfect fit. Set to Off to disable auto positioning Set to Normal Scan to perform a normal range image search Set to Wide Scan to perform a wide range image search M/P
In the Normal/Wide Scan option the machine automatically adjusts the PC (PC 1 and PC 2) and DP input video resolutions. For the other inputs, the machine automatically adjusts all the input video resolutions except for HD/SD (CEA 861 standard) video resolutions
Note that Auto Positioning is enabled only when Image Shift Mode is set to Auto (see below)
HDCP Mode to select the HDCP option for each HDMI/DP input: either ON (the default) or OFF M/P
Setting HDCP mode to Off on the HDMI/DP input allows the source to transmit a non-HDCP signal if required (for example, when working with a Mac computer).
Note that if you did not get the source to transmit the desired result, make sure you have saved the change (by pressing the ENTER button) and then physically disconnect and reconnect the cable connecting the source to the HDMI/DP input
EDID Select to select the native resolution on each input (HDMI, DP and VGA inputs) to be read by the video source connected to that input: 1024x768@60, 1280x800@60, 1280x1024@60, 1366x768@60, 1440x900@60, 1400x1050@60, 1600x900@60, 1600x1200@60, 1680x1050@60, 1920x1200@60RB, 720p50, 720p60, 1080p50, 1080p60, 2k50 or 2k60 E
Note that for the HDMI and DP inputs, you can either select the color depth to be 8bpp or 12bpp after selecting the native resolution and after selecting the color depth you can select either single or multiple modeline.
Native as Multiple Modelines – generating a group of resolutions in the detailed timing, including the native resolution), or
Native as Single Modeline – generating only the native resolution in the detailed timing
Note that when the EDID is set on the inputs, the changes are per input and immediate.
Color Space to select the color space for the PC and HDMI inputs: RGB, YPbPr or Follow Input
Note that if the machine is set to the dual display mode, and both the Main and PiP windows display the same input, you need to set the same input color space value for both windows
In case of digital video, Follow Input follows the actual color space; in case of analog video it follows only the input resolution: HD/SD resolutions are considered to be YUV color space and other resolutions will be considered as RGB color space.

Image Shift Mode – to get the best image positioning possible. Set to Auto to
automatically get the best possible image positioning automatically; set to Semi-auto to store the best image possible until the video resolution of the selected input is changed (in which case the setting bounces to Auto); set to Customize to keep the settings even if the video resolution of the selected input is changed
Note that a video resolution change, when in the Customized mode, may possibly result in an image positioning that is inaccurate with regards to the new video resolution and may need to be set once again
Window Customization
Select the position and the size of the selected window: H Position, H Width, V Position and V Height (see Section 6.2.1.2 and Section 6.2.1.1) M/P
The value range is dynamic. The FW prevents windows from exceeding the boundaries or over-sizing. The position and size of the windows are saved to the system.
The size and position of the customized window (Main or PiP) remain valid even when toggling the PIP button (front panel, remote control transmitter or protocol command).
The customized setup is cancelled only by explicitly selecting a preset Display Mode (see first item in this table) or if a new customized setup is created.
Use the front panel + and – buttons, IR remote control transmitter or Web page to set the position and height of the Main and/or PiP windows
The PiP window maximum horizontal active image area is 1600 pixels
The display mode setup, shown in Figure 11, is part of the entire system control and the selected Single Window also shows the current aspect ratio (Best Fit):

6.2.1 Window Customization
Window customization lets you change the size and position of a selected window. Make sure that you have control over the window that requires customization (Main Window Control or PiP Window Control). If not, select it via the OSD item in the Miscellaneous menu, see Section 6.8.
In the following examples, PiP Window Control is selected, but the same procedure applies to Main Window Control.
Note that you can also customize the window size and position via the “Y” commands (see Section 13.2) or protocol 3000 (see Section 13.4).
6.2.1.1 Changing the Size of the Main and/or PiP Window
Use the H Width and V Height to change the size of the window using the + and – buttons on the front panel or remote control transmitter (as illustrated in Figure 12).
Figure 12: Changing the Size of the Window
To change the size of the window, do the following:
1. Check that window control is set as required (for example, PiP Window Control).
2. Select Window Customization (see Figure 16).
3. Select H width (an OSD slide bar appears) and press + to increase the width, or – to decrease the width, see Figure 13.
The following example shows how to increase the width of the window
