23Delta 1010 User Guide
< DIGITAL INPUT: This section of the Control Panel displays the current S/PDIF
input status.
S/PDIF Signal: When Delta 1010 is receiving a valid S/PDIF signal, “Valid
Input Detected” is displayed. If no signal is present or the incoming signal is
invalid, the “Invalid or Not Present” is displayed.
Coax (RCA) / Optical: The bottom of the Digital Input section contains
two ‘grayed-out’ buttons: “Coax (RCA)” and “Optical.” These controls are
functions of other Delta interfaces (such as Delta DiO 2496) and do not
apply to Delta 1010.
< DIGITAL OUTPUT FORMAT: This section of the Control Panel has several
parameters relating to the operation of the S/PDIF output. These options are as
follows:
Consumer / Professional: These buttons determine the communication
protocol that takes place over the S/PDIF cable. The default “Consumer”
setting will send standard S/PDIF encoded audio signal over your
connection. The “Professional” setting sends an AES/EBU encoded signal
over the RCA S/PDIF connection.
AES/EBU signals are designed to be sent over balanced XLR
cables. Sending AES/EBU specified signals over a coaxial
(RCA) S/PDIF connection is a configuration that may not be
recognized by all manufacturers or devices.
Advanced Settings: Selecting this check box reveals several advanced
features on the right side of the S/PDIF tab. Note that your selection of
“Consumer” or “Professional” (see above) will determine the advanced
options that will be displayed.
Restore Defaults: This button will restore all of the advanced output
settings to their factory default settings.
