Use Cable mode to test HDMI cables for bandwidth capability and condition. Read the results on the built-in LCD and follow any on-screen indicators to isolate issues.

Recommendations

For reliable results, ensure source and display devices are set to the intended resolution and HDR settings before testing. When testing cables, test at the highest expected resolution and frame rate (for example 4K@60Hz) to confirm 18G capability. Store the device in a protective pouch to avoid damage during transport.
