1 About the 980
This chapter provides an overview of features of the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module and the 980 GUI
Manager. The 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module is an analyzer for HDMI/MHL source devices. It provides
visibility into the HDMI/MHL protocol to help resolve common interoperability problems in HDMI/MHL systems. The
980 GUI Manager is a PC application to manage and use the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module and other 980
modules.
The module can be equipped in either of the 980 Advanced Test Platforms:
1) The 980B Advanced Test Platform – 5-slot chassis with a 15 inch touch display.
2) The 980R Advanced Test Platform – 5-slot chassis with a 7 inch touch display.
Note: The module is always equipped in the first slot of the 980 platform from the factory.
The 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module is able to parse HDMI streams from source devices with a TMDS clock
and pixel clock up to 300MHz.
1.1 What makes the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer Module Unique?
The 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module for HDMI or MHL source devices provides full visibility into the protocol,
timing, control and auxiliary data. It captures and decodes encrypted or unencrypted metadata (audio sample,
infoframes and other data packets) as well as DDC transactions and CEC messages (C-Bus transactions for
MHL).
Competitive “analyzers” available on the market are more limited because they utilize commercial silicon chips.
The 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module uses a proprietary solution and therefore can provide much greater
visibility into the protocol, timing and control data. The competitive “analyzers” support some of the 980 HDMI
Protocol Analyzer features but not nearly all of them. They support functional testing but not true interoperability
Page 3 October 15, 2014
980 User Guide – HDMI HDCP 2.2 Compliance Rev. A2
testing. Functional test “analyzers” often support only real time monitoring. The 980 module supports capture, store
and analysis as well as Real Time monitoring.
For these same reasons, the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module can support all of the tests in the HDMI and
MHL source protocol compliance test specification. Functional test instruments cannot. For example, the 980
HDMI Protocol Analyzer supports all the source Protocol tests in Test 7-17 of the HDMI Compliance Test
Specification and the Basic Protocol source tests in the section 3.2.2.2 in the MHL Compliance Test Specification
related to control periods, preamble and guard bands. Similarly the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module can
measure the audio sample rate precisely and therefore measure audio jitter correctly. Functional test instruments
cannot support these tests correctly.
1.2 Scope of this User Guide
This User Guide provides descriptive and procedural information on the HDMI HDCP 2.2 compliance test option.
Although you can run the compliance tests through the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer’s “embedded GUI,” all the
examples used in the procedures in this document are taken from the external standalone PC 980 GUI Manager.
The procedures are identical between the embedded GUI running through the 980 front panel display and the
external standalone PC application but the look and feel is slightly different.
The following is a list of the User Guides available for the 980 systems:

1.3 Changes to this User Guide
The following updates have been added to the HDMI compliance test descriptions and procedures:
This is a new User Guide.
Note: Please be sure to check the Quantum Data website for updates to this User Guide.
1.4 What options are available with the 980?
The 980 offers four options that you can purchase with the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module. You must have a
license to use these optional features: 1) Encrypted Link Analyzer mode for monitoring encrypted data between an
HDMI source and sink device. 2) HDMI Source Compliance tests in accordance with HDMI 1.4 CTS Sections 7.4
through 7.8. 3) EDID Compliance test in accordance with Sections 8.2 and 8.5 of the HDMI 1.4 CTS. 4) HDMI Sink
Compliance tests in accordance with HDMI 1.4 CTS Sections 8.2 and 8.4 through 8.8. 5) MHL Source Compliance
tests in accordance with MHL 1.2 & 2.0 CTS Section 3. 6) MHL Sink Compliance tests in accordance with MHL 1.2
& 2.0 CTS Section 4. 7) HDMI HDCP Source Compliance test in accordance with HDCP 1.2 CTS. 8) HDMI HDCP
2.2 Source and Sink Emulators for HDMI 1.4b HDCP 2.2 functional test in accordance with HDCP 2.2 CTS. 9)
HDMI HDCP 2.2 Source and Sink Compliance test in accordance with HDCP 2.2 CTS.
You can determine what options the 980 is provisioned with by looking at the label on the bottom of the 980 or by
accessing the Instrument Information screen on either the built-in or external 980 GUI manager. You will need to
access the Instrument Information panel through embedded 980 GUI Manager as shown below.
Page 5 October 15, 2014
980 User Guide – HDMI HDCP 2.2 Compliance Rev. A2
The information is then displayed in a separate window. The information on the Instrument Information window
will provide you with the information about what options are supported and will also be helpful if you call Quantum
Data customer support during an upgrade process.

980 User Guide – HDMI HDCP 2.2 Compliance Rev. A2
1.5 980 User Interface
The 980 Protocol Analyzer module provides a graphical user interface for operation. This GUI can run both on the
980 itself through the built-in color touch screen display or as a standalone application running on a PC. The look
and feel and functions are similar but not identical.
1.5.1 External 980 GUI Manager
Page 7 October 15, 2014
980 User Guide – HDMI HDCP 2.2 Compliance Rev. A2
The external 980 GUI Manager provides easy access to the captured data on your PC for sharing with others. Also
the external 980 GUI Manager enables you to operate the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer through a larger interface
which allows you to use multiple panels at the same time.
1.5.2 Embedded 980 GUI Manager
You can operate the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module fully through the built-in color touch screen display. In
addition to the basic operation of the 980 HDMI Protocol Analyzer module the touch screen display GUI there are
two key features that are only available in the embedded 980 GUI Manager GUI: 1) viewing the video in real time,
2) viewing the MHL video/audio metadata and DDC (MHL C-Bus) transactions in real time using the Real Time
mode. You can view the incoming video from a source even when encrypted with HDCP content protection. The
ability to view the incoming video also enables you to control the menus of the HDMI and MHL source device to
ensure that it is in the correct mode. The built-in GUI also enables you to view the HDMI and MHL video metadata
and DDC and MHL C-Bus transactions in real time, as they are being captured, using the Real Time mode.
You can transfer data captures taken from the built-in touch display to your PC where they can be viewed through
the external 980 GUI Manager and also disseminated to others for analysis.
1.5.3 Embedded 980 GUI Manager and External GUI Manager layout differences
Aside from the “Real Time” mode using the receiver there are a few other differences in the layouts between the
embedded 980 GUI Manager and the External 90 GUI Manager. The primary difference is the Navigator panel
which enables you to access the data elements and test results from an instrument. In the External 980 GUI
Manager, the Navigator panel is always present on the left side of the 980 GUI Manager application window as
shown below.
Page 8 October 15, 2014
980 User Guide – HDMI HDCP 2.2 Compliance Rev. A2
In the Embedded 980 GUI Manager, the Navigator panel must be opened. You can access it either from the Other
Page of the Apps window, refer to the first screen example below or you can access the Navigator from the Real
Time window as shown in the second screen example. Finally you can also access the Navigator from any window
in the embedded GUI using the activation key at the bottom of any screen as shown below.
