1About the 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer Module
This chapter provides an overview of features of the 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer module and the 980
GUI Manager. The module can be equipped in either of the following 980 Advanced Test Platforms:
1) The 980B Advanced Test Platform –5-slot chassis with a 15 inch touch display
2) The 980R Advanced Test Platform - 5-slot rack mountable chassis with a 7 inch touch display
The 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer module supports video pattern testing and audio testing of DP 1.4
capable displays at 8.1Gb/s link rates per 4 lanes. It is equipped with two (2) Tx ports and an Rx port. The two DP
Tx ports are both active simultaneously which enables you to test multiple sinks and displays at the same time. The
Rx port is for the optional DP analyzer for testing DisplayPort source devices up to 8.1Gb/s link rates per 4 lanes.
The 980 GUI Manager is a PC application to manage and use the 980 DP Video Generator / Analyzer module.
1.1 Scope of this User Guide
This User Guide provides descriptive and procedural information on the 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer
module for testing DP display devices.
Although you can operate the 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer module through the “embedded GUI,” most
of the examples used in the procedures in this User Guide are taken from the external standalone PC 980 GUI
Manager. The procedures are nearly identical between the embedded GUI running through the 980B/980R front
panel display and the external standalone PC application but the look and feel is slightly different.
There are separate User Guides for the other 980B/980R modules. The following is a list of the User Guides
available with the 980B/980R and its modules. These are available from the downloads and product web pages of
the Quantum Data website http://www.quantumdata.com/products/980.asp:
The following is a list of the User Guides available for the 980 systems:

1.4 980 User Interface
The 980B/980R provide a graphical user interface for operation. This GUI can run both on the 980B/980R through
the built-in color touch screen display or as a standalone application running on a PC. The look and feel and
functions are similar but not identical. The first illustration below shows a PC (left) connected to the 980B through
an Ethernet cable for operation through the external 980 GUI Manager. The second illustration depicts the
embedded 980 GUI Manager.
1.4.1 External 980 GUI Manager
The external 980B GUI Manager provides convenient operation of the 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator module from
your PC. The larger screen size on the external 980 GUI Manager enables you to use multiple panels at the same
time.
1.4.2 Embedded 980 GUI Manager
You can operate the 980B/980R fully through the built-in color touch screen display.

2Getting Started
This chapter explains what is involved in getting your 980B/980R system up and operating to capture data.
2.1 What is shipped with the 980 DP Video Generator / Analyzer module?
The 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer module can optionally be equipped in the 980B/980R Advanced Test
Platforms. The following items are included with the 980 DP Video Generator / Analyzer module:
DP cable (P/N 30-00162) –used for connecting to the 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer module to the
device under test.
2.2 Operational workflow for DP Video Pattern Testing
The following are the high level steps you will need to follow to get your 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer
module up and running.
2.2.1 Procedures covered in 980 Advanced Test Platform Quick Start Guide:
The following list of activities are described in the 980 Quick Start Guide.
1. Remove the 980B/980R from the shipping box.
2. Assemble the source device under test into your lab area and power it up.
3. Connect the 980B/980R power cable (provided) to a suitable outlet (110-240V 50/60Hz) and apply power to
the 980.
4. (Optional –not required if using the built-in display) Select a suitable PC to host the 980 GUI Manager
application. A minimum of 512MB of RAM is recommended. (Note that you do not need a PC because you can
use the built-in Front Panel display; however the external 980 GUI Manager provides you with a larger viewing
area).
5. (Optional –not required if using the built-in display) Determine how you are going to connect to the 980/980B
from the external 980 GUI Manager in order to operate the instrument:
oPut the 980B/980R on your corporate network and enable DHCP using an available Ethernet patch cable,
or…
oConnect directly with a host PC or laptop using the Ethernet crossover cable provided.
6. (Optional –not required if using the built-in display) Assign an IP address to the 980B/980R either directly or by
enabling DHCP.
7. (Optional –not required if using the built-in display) Download the latest 980 GUI Manager application from the
Quantum Data website:

3Testing DP Displays with the 980 DP Video Generator / Analyzer module
This chapter describes how to operate the 980 DP 1.4 Video Generator / Analyzer module to test DP display
devices (HDTVs, PC monitors).
3.1 Workflow for running the video pattern testing of DP displays
The workflow below is a high level set of tasks for operating the 980 DP Video Generator / Analyzer module. Note
that the installation of the external 980 GUI Manager and the Ethernet session are optional; you can run the tests
through the embedded GUI Manager.
1. Power up the 980. Refer to the procedures in Powering up the 980.
Note: The power switch in the front is used when you are turning off the 980 for a short period of time. For
extended periods of off time, it is best to power the 980 down by first using the power button on the front and
then the rocker switch on the back.
2. (Optional) Establish an Ethernet/IP connection between the external 980 GUI Manager and the 980B/980R
Advanced Test Platform using the procedures in the 980 Advanced Test Platform Quick Start Guide.
3. Connect the DP sink device under test to one of the module’s Tx ports.
4. Access the module’s interface through the 980 GUI Manager.
5. Select DP.
6. Select the formats (timing or resolution).
7. Select the test patterns you wish to test with.
8. Select any video options and settings.
9. Select the audio format.
10. Monitor the sink DUT for any anomalies.
