SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Safety Precautions

IMPORTANT! Safety Information

Safety Classications

Note: Provides special information for installing, conguring, and operating the equipment.

IMPORTANT!

Provides special information that is critical to installing, conguring, and operating the
equipment.

CAUTION!

Provides special information on avoiding situations that may cause damage to equipment.

WARNING!

Provides special information on avoiding situations that may cause physical danger to the
installer, end user, etc.

ELECTRIC SHOCK!

The source power poses an electric shock hazard that has the potential to cause serious injury
to installers and end users.

ELECTRICAL DISCONNECT:

The source power outlet and power supply input power sockets should be easily accessible to
disconnect power in the event of an electrical hazard or malfunction.

WEIGHT INJURY!

Installing some of the equipment requires two installers to ensure safe handling during
installation. Failure to use two installers may result in injury.

Safety Statements

1. Read these instructions in their entirety and retain a copy for later reference.

2. Follow all instructions and heed all warnings.

3. Do not expose this apparatus to rain, moisture, sprays, drips or splashes and ensure that no objects containing liquids are placed
on the apparatus, including cups, glasses and vases.

4. Do not place this unit in a conned space such as enclosed shelving, cabinets or bookshelves. Ensure the unit is adequately
ventilated.

5. To prevent the risk of electric shock or re hazard due to overheating, do not cover the unit or obstruct ventilation openings with
material, newspaper, cardboard or anything that may restrict airow into the unit.

6. Do not install near external heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, boilers or any device that produces heat such as
ampliers or computers and do not place near sources of naked ame.

7. Unplug apparatus from power supply during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

8. Protect the power cable from being walked on, pinched or restricted in any way, especially at plug connections.

9. Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.

10. Units contain non-serviceable parts - Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel.

IMPORTANT! Do Not Hot swap HDMI plugs or HDBaseT connectors - Please insert and extract cables carefully with the power
SWITCHED OFF. Power is passed along transmissions so connecting and disconnecting cables while powered can result in damage to
circuitry or possible injury.

INTRODUCTION AND FEATURES

Introduction

Two Devices. One Kit. Zero Problems

Consisting of a 4K Timing Signal Generator and a 4K Source Signal Analyzer, the TT-KIT-4K is an essential addition to any integrator’s
toolbox to test HDMI audio and video signal properties and system compatibility to help identify potential device or cable issues and
ensure the fast and ecient completion of installations.

Supporting 4096x2160p @ 60Hz 4:2:0 - dened as part of HDMI 2.0 specication - including RGB 4:4:4, YUV 4:2:2, YUV 4:2:0 and
Deep Color, the TT-KIT-4K is powered by rechargeable lithium batteries or mains and enclosed in a rugged carry case for a powerful,
compact and highly portable HDMI testing solution.

Oering 33 preset and 10 user-denable settings for timing signals, the 4K Timing Signal Generator replicates a wide range of signal
congurations, such as resolution, refresh rates, scan types, polarity, HDCP 1.4 encryption and the creation of up to 8 channels of
embedded digital audio. Oering 35 separate signal patterns to test color, gradient, detail, motion and 3D, the Generator also ability
to read, store and recall EDID codes to ensure total compatibility between connected devices in the installation, with results and menu
displayed on an integrated 1-inch AMOLED screen.

The 4K Source Signal Analyzer includes a 2” OLED screen to display menu options, source video transmissions and to conrm correct
image render through analysis of a variety of incoming signal metadata, including up to 8 channels of incoming audio assessed to
evaluate audio signal level and quality.

In terms of EDID, the Analyzer emulates any screen or projector by storing EDID for the integrator to recall anywhere to test an
installation without requiring display devices to be installed on site. In addition, the integrated ‘monitor’ function can be used to test a
signal over a dened period of time, enabling the installer to leave the device unmanned all day/night to analyze every minute/hour of
use for an invaluable time and cost saving method of testing or troubleshooting systems.

The TT-KIT-4K oers complete examination and diagnosis of transmissions from any source to all displays to ensure greatly improved
interrogation of project distribution between devices for even greater signal accuracy and compatibility and even more ecient
installations.

Applications

The TT-KIT-4K comprises of a Timing Signal Generator (TT-GEN-4K) and Source Signal Analyzer (TT-SIG-4K) and is designed to
generate a reliable, calibrated test signal from A to B through an HDMI cable or by connecting to source, display or transmission device,
such as an extender set or matrix.

Intended to be used to test HDMI signals in various installation scenarios, including HDMI cables installed in-wall and HDMI devices
such as matrices, switchers, splitters and displays, the TT-KIT-4K can also test HDMI signals distributed through HDBaseT or UTP­based systems utilizing Cat5e/6 infrastructure, such as HDBaseT matrices, transmitters and display receivers.

The TT-GEN-4K can be used to verify signals being delivered to display devices already installed; particularly useful for 4K installations
that may have a 4K display device but no 4K source to conrm support of 4K resolution over distance at display locations.

Similarly, the TT-SIG-4K can also be used in instances where a site has sources/ transmission devices (at rack location for example) to
verify signals at each display zone prior to display installation.

Please note, TT-KIT-4K test equipment is not designed for Category 5e/6 cable certication and should not be used as
such - please use conventional test equipment for Cat5e/6 cable certication.
