Testing HDMI HDCP Compliance using
the Encryption Status Tester (EST)
Running the HDCP compliance test for HDMI devices
Overview
The 882E-Analyzer (882EA) supports the running of an HDCP compliance test on
HDCP-enabled HDMI sources, sinks and repeaters. The HDCP compliance test was
developed while working closely with Digital Content Protection.
The HDCP compliance test system enables developers of HDMI products to perform a fast
and comprehensive HDCP compliance test. Because the 882 can emulate HDMI HDCP
sources, sinks and repeaters, it can perform a complete HDCP compliance tests on any
HDCP capable HDMI source, sink or repeater.
The HDCP compliance test can be run entirely through the 882 front panel or through the
command line. The HDCP commands enable you to run a specific subset of the tests in
the series of tests.
When the tests are completed, an HTML report is issued and saved in the Reports
directory of the external memory card (if the card is inserted in the 882E). The report has
a summary and detail section. A Pass or Fail indication is provided for each test. In some
cases the test report shows “Not Judged.” The Not Judged result is regarded as a failure
for compliance testing at an ATC.

Encryption Status Tester
Some of the HDCP compliance tests for an HDMI source, sink and repeater device require
the use of the standalone hardware device called the Encryption Status Tester (EST)
(below). The EST device is currently only used for the 882E model. For the 882E, the EST
device is connected into the test setup for all tests beginning with the 2.17.x release of the
882E model.
The following table lists the HDCP compliance tests that the EST is specifically used for.

Running HDCP compliance test on HDMI transmitters
To run the 1A and 1B series HDCP compliance tests on an HDMI source (transmitter):
Note: The 1A-08 test requires that you use the SRM disc for the 1A-08 test if the source
device has an optical drive. Refer to “To run the 1A-08 HDCP compliance test using the
SRM disc:” on page 13.
1. Connect the cables as follows:
a. Apply power to the Encryption Status Tester (EST) using the power adapter
supplied with the EST.
b. Connect an HDMI cable from the source device under test output to the EST HDMI
port labeled, “HDMI IN.”
c. Connect an HDMI cable from the 882 HDMI Rx 1 port to the EST HDMI port labeled
“HDMI OUT.”
d. Connect an HDMI cable from the 882 HDMI Tx 2 port to the EST HDMI port labeled
“HDMI.”
e. Connect an HDMI cable from the 882 HDMI Tx 1 port to the HDMI input of the
display device (used to monitor the video).
The following diagram depicts the test setup for the 882EA:

on an HDMI source (transmitter):” on page 7 using the instructions for the 882E
analyzer.
Note: The SRM test is only supported on the 882E analyzer. You can insert the SRM
disc into the source device and run the HDCP tests in batch mode rather than through
the command line.
2. Insert the SRM disc into the optical drive.
Note: The SRM test does not apply for source devices that cannot play a DVD.
3. To run 1A-08 test, use the command line as shown below:
CPTX:DUTT 1 // Selects the device type as a source.
CPTX:CPTR 8 // Selects specific test (e.g. 1A_08).
CPTX:CPTU // Initiates the execution of the test.

Running HDCP compliance tests on HDMI receivers
For the 882E the 2C-01 and 2C-04 tests are run multiple times for various settings. The
2C-01 test is required to be run in two configurations: 1) combined reads and 2) short
reads. The 2C-04 test is required to be run in six (6) configurations. There are two read
configurations: 1) short read and 2) combined read and there are three encryption pulse
configurations: 1) in the beginning of the vertical blanking; 2) in the middle of the vertical
blanking and 3) at the end of the vertical blanking.
These multiple iterations are handled in the batch mode but you can choose to run them
through the command line as well.
To run the 2C series HDCP compliance test on an HDMI sink (receiver):
1. Connect the cables as follows:
a. Apply power to the Encryption Status Tester (EST) using the power adapter that is
supplied with the EST.
b. Connect an HDMI cable from the sink device under test input to the EST HDMI port
labeled, “HDMI OUT.”
c. Connect an HDMI cable from the 882 HDMI Tx 1 port to the EST HDMI port labeled
“HDMI IN.”
d. Connect an HDMI cable from the 882 HDMI Tx 2 port to the EST HDMI port labeled
“HDMI.”
