Erratic operation when locked to 96 or 88.2kS/s on Toslink or ST inputs
• Check your optical connections are clean and properly installed.
• The Toslink and ST receiver devices are industry standard types which are
not guaranteed to operate correctly at 96 or 88.2kS/s. Connect to a different
input instead.
The unit will not decode Dual AES
• Dual AES mode may be disabled. Open the menu and set the Dual AES
page to On (see page 23). Connect a valid 88.2, 96, 176.4 or 192kS/s Dual
AES source to both AES 1 and AES 2 inputs. Press the Input selector
button repeatedly until both AES1 and AES2 indicators are lit.
• Your source equipment may have two AES outputs but might not be
capable of Dual AES operation. Check the manual for the source
equipment.
The unit drops out of Dual AES mode into AES1 or AES2
• Dual AES mode is only available if AES data streams are available on both
AES 1 and AES 2 inputs. If either are interrupted or become corrupted while
in Dual AES mode, the unit may default to single AES mode and select the
valid input. Check for faulty wiring to the input which has been deselected.
Once both data streams are stable again, Dual AES mode may be selected
using the Input button or the Remote Control. See page 23.
• If you are driving Elgar Plus direct from an Upsampler always set to output
Dual AES, you may find that changing inputs on the Upsampler causes
Elgar Plus to fall out of Dual AES mode. To prevent this, Elgar Plus may be
locked in Dual AES mode. Open the menu and page through until you reach
the Dual AES page. Change the setting to Lock. Select AES 1 or AES 2
input on Elgar Plus and it will enter Dual AES mode automatically (see page
23).
A digital recorder fails to record from the REC Output
• If Elgar Plus is selected to an SPDIF input (RCA, BNC, ST or TOSLINK)
and the source data (CD for example) is copy protected, your recorder will
be prevented from recording the data. This prevents copyright infringement.
Note that AES data streams have no Copy Prohibit flag.
• In some DAT machines, the digital input is connected directly to a digital
output without buffering. This arrangement does not comply with the
IEC60958 standard. Connecting another device to this may overload Elgar
Plus’ REC output and corrupt the digital data.
• The REC output is usable with single AES, RCA, BNC, Toslink or ST
inputs ONLY.
