Press the desired port button on the port bar on the right.
INFO:  Port settings of the selected port are also available by pressing the Parameters button.
Click on the number of the desired port in the case of grid view or on the headline of the port in the case of
tile view to open the port properties window. Signal status information and the most important parameters
are displayed. Audio mode, HDCP settings, properties of the test pattern are available from this menu. If
analog audio is present, the user can set the volume, balance and gain values here. Special functions (e.g.
frame detector, switching this input to all outputs, etc) are also available on the panel.
ATTENTION!  As the available settings and features are different from port to port, the content of the Port
properties window is also different.

The HDCP capability can be enabled or disabled on the input port. This can prevent unnecessary HDCP
encryption with certain source devices. Note that only unprotected contents can be played on the source if
this setting is disabled (unchecked). See the HDCP Management section for more information. #hdcp
Input Cable Equalization
The amplitude of high-frequency signals decreases after they pass-through long distances in copper cables.
To counter-act this phenomenon, certain input boards can amplify the signal while maximizing the amplitude

There are two equalization modes: automatic and manual. Automatic mode usually provides perfect
transmission, but at longer distances and higher resolutions manual equalization may be necessary. By
default, automatic equalization is enabled.
Keep in mind that a previously set manual equalization level may not be suitable for a different system. It is
always advised to use the automatic mode and adjust the equalization manually if the auto mode does not
give a good result.
