The HDCP Encryption can be disabled on DVI inputs #1 to #2 or/and Main Output / Preview Output.
If you want to use HDCP content from your sources, be sure to use only HDCP compliant screens or projector. If it’s
not the case, the output image could be disabled. When displaying HDCP protected sources on non HDCP compliant
equipment, the following message will be displayed on the device screen: « Due to HDCP content, non HDCP screens
cannot display protected sources ».
Screen will go to black without displaying the HDCP input image, or partially layer out on HDCP content.
The output status can provide you all information about the output in real time. This feature is particularly useful when
HDCP is used with long cable to be sure the communication is well handled.
