Input> AES BNC Errors type> loop or sticky
When set to “Loop” any errors
are continuously monitored so a brief error may not be noticed. When set to
“sticky” an error once set will be continuously displayed even if the signal has
recovered from the error.
Input> AES BNC Ch.Status Shows the channel status of the
AES signal. Possible readings are:
Sample rate Sample rate is calculated directly from the incoming clock.
Possible displayed values are 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 64kHz,
88.2kHz, 96kHz, 176.4kHz and 192kHz. Any other sample rates
will be displayed as ‘???’.
Audio bits Possible readable values 16 bit, 20 bit, 24 bit.
Emphasis On or off.
Generation Original or Copy
Copyright Yes or No.
Format Possible data types PCM, IEC61937, DTS_LD, DTS_CD.
Only while reading channel status some sample rates may sound distorted through
the loudspeaker or headphones as it’s necessary to switch off some synchronising
functions to efficiently calculate the sample rate.
Input> AES BNC Stat.word
This displays the first five (and most important) bytes of the AES status word in
binary format.
