Weiss Enginering Ltd. DAC501-4ch/DAC502-4ch
2 The three interfaces
We offer you three possibilities to control the DAC50x-4ch - so you can adjust the use and interaction of the
DAC50x-4ch to your own special needs. In the following these three user interfaces are explained in more
detail:
• The LCD touch screen and rotary knob on the faceplate
• The IR remote control
• The web interface built into the DAC50x-4ch
2.1 The LCD
On the faceplate of the DAC50x-4ch you can use the LCD which is a touch screen and the rotary knob to
operate with the DAC50x-4ch. Tap on the LCD at the:
• Upper left: input selection. The UPnP selection selects the Ethernet interface as the input.
• Upper middle: output select. Only the selected output is active, i.e. XLR/RCA or JACK. The output
which is not selected will be muted.
The displayed red icon also shows the output’s selected Output Termination.
• Upper right: volume. If red then the output is muted. By tapping the output is toggled between muted
and unmuted. The volume can be changed with the rotary knob.
If the value shown is yellow then the absolute polarity of the output is inverted (see below). All param-
eters can be different between XLR/RCA output and JACK output.
• Lower left: DSP settings. This opens a menu which allows to select one of the DSP algorithms to be
changed. (Note, the rotary knob allows to scroll through the menus).
The algorithms can be operated via the touch screen, but we recommend to use the web interface (sec-
tion 2.3) for simpler operation of the DSP features. All parameters can be different between XLR/RCA
output and JACK output. Thus select the appropriate output first (XLR/RCA or JACK) and then adjust
the DSP parameters.
• Lower middle: Setup menu. Allows to set the left/right balance, the absolute output polarity, the basic
output level in four coarse steps (analog domain) and the LCD back light brightness (the LCD Dim
setting is activated after some delay if no parameter is changed any more).
(Note, the rotary knob allows to scroll through the menus). The Balance, Polarity and Output Level
parameters are stored separately for XLR/RCA output and JACK output and thus may vary. At the
bottom of the setup page a few technical specifications are listed:
– The hostname which looks similar to this: dac50x-4ch-0010, meaning that the DAC50x-4ch can
be accessed via an internet browser as described in the quick start guide.
– The IP address of the unit in your network.
– The MAC address, which is a specific address of your unit.
• Lower right: Sampling rate of the input signal.
• Bottom: Displays the currently played track when in Roon Ready or UPnP input mode (does not
necessarily work with WAV or AIFF files).
