Introduction

This 40Gbps Generator and Analyzer 8K Testing Kit was built as the ideal testing unit for all cus-

tom and commercial integrators. The Fox & Hound Test Kit comes with a 40Gbps Generator and

a 40Gbps Analyzer. These tools allow you to conrm correct bandwidth, HDCP, resolution, timing,

HDR metadata and many more options that could cause system hiccups if not treated correctly. The

Fox & Hound Kit is a product that can produce and analyze the newest and highest resolutions -

4K60 at 18Gbps. It’s also aordable enough for every integrator to have on any install/service call!

Sure, there are pricey test instruments available with a multitude of features, most of which the

average integrator is not going to use. That is why we set out to develop a simple, aordable

solution to troubleshoot system issues. The Fox & Hound: A/V Testing and Troubleshooting Kit is a

product that can produce and analyze the newest and highest resolutions - 8K30 at 40Gbps FRL.

It’s also aordable enough for every integrator to have on any install/service call!

·Generate video signals up to 40Gbps FRL with back-

wards compatibility. This gives you the ability to emu-

late any active content available

·Test any display, repeater, or the system’s infrastruc-

ture for HDR compatibility at the push of a Button

·Test cables before, during, or post installation to en-

sure bandwidth and functionality

·Mimic any available source to ensure compatibility

with any sink device. No need to carry a source for

testing

·Allows you to test a sink device or the entire system

for HDCP compatibility

·Test up to 8ch audio to ensure that audio is playing

throughout the system

·Easily identify 5v and that HDCP is present, eliminat-

ing guesswork

·Bright, easy to read display

·Portable and lightweight. No need to be tethered to a

power outlet

·View live video signals up to 40Gbps FRL ensuring that

sources and repeaters are working throughout the signal

chain

·View video format information to ensure that a source

or repeater device is sending out the correct video sig-

nal, up to 18Gbps

·Verify that HDR is present on HDR capable devices, no

more guesswork

·Ensure that an HDMI or DVI cable is functional and

passing the desired bandwidth. Check 5V, Hot Plug De-

tect, TMDS, and the DDC channel of the cable

·Read or emulate EDID on any repeater or sink device

during system setup or troubleshooting. No more guess-

ing on what the EDID is

·Analyze any version of HDCP to ensure compliance of a

source or repeater device

·Verify audio signals up to 8ch and analyze channel levels

in real time

·Bright, easy to read display

·Portable and lightweight. No need to be tethered to a

power outlet

It is imperative to know and understand the interactivity of the devices regardless if the system is

simple or complex. Understanding the basics of systematic troubleshooting from source to display

(and everything in-between) will greatly improve your chances of resolving issues within the sys-

tem.

Audio/Video Distribution Systems - Overview

All AV Systems are made of basically 3 main components:

·Sources – This is any device that outputs HDMI – Set top boxes, game consoles, computers and more.

This is a HDMI Transmitter device. Substitute the generator during system testing – use the analyzer to

test the output of any source for the desired timing characteristic.

·Repeaters – This is a combination device that can be connected between one or several sources and

sink devices – like an AVR (audio video receiver) or matrix switch. Use both generator and analyzer for

troubleshooting the devices and for system troubleshooting.

·Sinks – This is the display or projector – this is an HDMI Receiver device. Substitute the analyzer for

sinks during system testing – use the generator to test sinks by injecting a specic timing characteristic

expected to pass through distribution system.

In the diagram above, you can see the basic components of an A/V system (#1 = source, #2 =

distribution system, #3 = sink). Although this is a simple diagram, imagine there are several devices

(AVR, Distribution Amplier aka HDMI splitter, AVR, HDMI Extender, etc) in place of #2 (the distribu-

tion system).

Example of a functioning system based on the diagram above:

1. Generator – generates test pattern (SMPTE Bars) at desired video format and HDCP version.

2. DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM - passes the signal (unaltered).

3. Analyzer – receives and displays the test pattern (SMPTE Bars) at desired video format and HDCP ver-

sion.

4. HDCP Indicator LED – Indicates the presence of HDCP

ON - HDCP is enabled (1.4 or 2.2)

OFF - No HDCP detected

5. Status Indicator - Indicates that a Hot Plug event has occurred and there is a successful connec-

tion between the source, sink, and repeaters in the system.

NOTE: For a full list of all available timing/resolutions from Vesa up to 8k, see Page(s) 12-13.

6. 8K Button – Choose from a list of 8K timings up to 40 Gbps FRL.
