Illustrative report · Not a confirmed diagnosis
HDMI cable comparison
This sample accompanies the worked HDMI example. A real export contains the console and checks you actually record. Optional notes remain in your browser unless you choose to share a downloaded copy.
- Example model
- Xbox Series X
- Observation
- TV says no signal; console stays on
- Next step
- Retain the cable that passes the repeated comparison
Record conditions and results
| Check | Illustrative result | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Direct HDMI connection | No signal with cable A | Intermediary equipment did not explain this observation. |
| Same TV input, cable B | Picture appears | The change follows the cable comparison. |
| Repeat A, then B | A fails; B displays a picture | Investigate cable A first; internal console parts are not isolated. |
Keep uncertainty visible
No internal inspection, electrical measurement or second-display test was performed in this example. Those should not be marked as passed. A technician should be able to see what remains untested without reading a guessed component diagnosis.

The sample is plain text so it can be read without an account or specialist software. Your actual report can be downloaded or printed from Session report after beginning a diagnosis.
Before sharing a real report
Remove passwords, account details and unnecessary customer identifiers from notes. Explain which equipment was available, what changed between tests and whether a repair has already been attempted. Read how local records are handled.
