Using Crestron Toolbox, the switcher can test HDMI sources and displays for
switching limitations due to HDCP keys. The number of HDCP keys specifies the
number of display devices that can be connected to a source over HDMI using
HDCP authentication. For more information, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file.
