Feature Enhancements for 882EA Release 2.10.2 - vxWorks: 20.1884602

Known Issue #1: The ability to corrupt bits in the CEC cores is broken. This affects CECT 9.5-1 of the CEC Compliance Test. This will be fixed in a future release.

Known Issue #2: HDCP Compliance Test applet on the web interface is broken. HDCP Compliance Test can be run via front panel or command line.

The following features are included in the Release 2.10.2.

• EDID Compliance Test now supports HDMI CTS 1.3b.

The following anomalies have been corrected in the Release 2.10.2.

• Fixed the steady state and logic one levels on the Rx DDC. Rx daughter card now functions properly as long as resistors R19, R20, R58, and R59 are removed from the daughter card. If you have an 882EA with release 2.10.0, please click here for information on how to get the hardware modification done on your Rx daughter card.
• General HDCP Compliance Test improvements.
• Fixed some problems with HdcpProd and HDCP query.
  

• Test steps TT01 and TT02 of Test Section 1A-01 are not tested because the application does not have visability into the control bits of the TMDS data islands. Therefore a Pass result on the test report only applies to the tests within that section that are executed.
  
  
• Test steps TT01 and TT02 of Test Section 1B-01 are not tested because the application does not have visability into the control bits of the TMDS data islands. Therefore a Pass result on the test report only applies to the tests within that section that are executed.
  
  
• Test Section 1A-08 is not tested because this test requires a DVD with a list of KSVs that have been revoked.
  
  
• Test Section 1A-09 cannot be tested because the application cannot collect the TMDS video.
  
  
• Test Section 2C-01 test S302 cannot be tested because the application cannot currently process Pj. Therefore a Pass result on the test report only applies to the tests within that section that are executed.
  
  
• Test Section 2C-04 cannot be tested because the application cannot collect TMDS data.
  
  

• do not use CMD Terminal tool in the generator's web interface to run the Compliance Test via command line; use Telnet (Ethernet) or HyperTerminal (serial) instead
  
  
• try running the tests in batch mode by using the front panel interface
  
  
• if there is a problem, try running the tests one by one via the command line (see the repeater AB test procedure below as an example and refer to the user guide)
  
  
• running the tests using release 2.6.1 (20.1883610 firmware) saves the test reports in /tffs0/library/reports/
  
  
• running the tests using a beta firmware (20.1883611 and later) or release 2.10.2 (20.1884602 firmware) saves the test reports in /card0/library/reports if there is a PCMCIA card inserted in the 882CA/882EA (/tffs0/library/reports/ if no PCMCIA is inserted)
  
  

• you can monitor the transactions on Tx port 1 using the ACA
  
  

• you can monitor the transactions if you have another 882C/882CA/882E/882EA and a TPA-ACA-3R
  
  
• connect the output of the source device to TPA-ACA-3R's DUT 1, the input 1 of 882CA/EA (test equipment) to TPA-ACA-3R's DUT 2, and output 1 of a different 882C/882CA/882E/882EA (ACA monitoring device) to TPA-ACA-3R's OUT 1
  
  
• use the ACA on the 882C/882CA/882E/882EA that is not the test equipment to monitor the transactions on Tx port 1
  
  

• use a separate source device and connect it to the upstream port of the repeater
  
  
• use the 882CA/EA's Rx 1 port as the sink device and connect it to the downstream port of the repeater
  
  
• you can monitor either downstream or upstream transactions (not both at the same time) if you have another 882C/882CA/882E/882EA and a TPA-ACA-3R
  
  
• in order to monitor the downstream transactions, connect the downstream of the repeater device to TPA-ACA-3R's DUT 1, the input 1 of 882CA/882EA (test equipment) to TPA-ACA-3R's DUT 2, and output 1 of a different 882C/882CA/882E/882EA (ACA monitoring device) to TPA-ACA-3R's OUT 1
  
  
• in order to monitor the upstream transactions, connect the output of the source device to TPA-ACA-3R's DUT 1, the upstream of the repeater device to TPA-ACA-3R's DUT 2, and output 1 of a different 882C/882CA/882E/882EA (ACA monitoring device) to TPA-ACA-3R's OUT 1
  
  
• use the ACA on the 882C/882CA/882E/882EA that is not the test equipment to monitor the transactions on Tx port 1
  
  

• connect the 882CA/EA's Tx 1 port to the upstream port of the repeater



• connect the 882CA/EA's Rx 1 port to the downstream port of the repeater



• make sure HdcpProd image is not selected on the 882CA/882EA before running the tests



• you can monitor the downstream transactions on Rx port 1 using the ACA



• you can monitor the upstream transactions on Tx port 1 using the ACA

Note: The release files can only be applied to the 882EA generator (not the 882CA/882C/881C, 882D, or 882E/881E generators).

The Release 2.10.2 is comprised of the following software components.

You can upgrade your generator using the procedures in the Users Guide. Please note that you will have to verify that your current generator is operating with Release 2.10.0. To verify that your current generator is operating with one of these releases, enter the following command:

verf?

Release 2.10.0 should return the following information:

20.1884600, 01.04.11

After verifying that the generator is operating with Release 2.10.0, upgrade your generator using the procedures below:

1. Download the 2.10.2 Zip file to your PC and unzip the file. There will be a System and a Library directory.
2. Upgrade the generator using the procedures at this link.
   
3. After power cycling the generator, verify that the generator is running the current 2.10.2 version of the vxWorks file by entering the following command:
   
   verf?
   20.1884602, 01.04.11



4. Verify that the vxWorks file is: 20.1884602.
5. Verify that the BootRom version is: 01.04.11.
6. Verify that the generator is running the current 2.10.2 version of the gateware files by entering the following command:
   
   verg?
   405C,1029,7192007:450A,1,6202007:450B,1,6132007



7. The first listing is the Lattice FPGA gateware. The next two listings are the transmitter gateware files for the DVI and the HDMI output. The gatewares are separated by colons. Verify that the transmitter gateware files are: 450A,1,6202007:450B,1,6132007.
