Device Mode 
A VN-MATRIX encoder can be configured in three modes: 
  enable  allows the source to be streamed, 
  disable  prevents a source from being streamed, 
  standby prevents a source from being streamed. 
For normal operation, enable must be selected. 
Audio Status 
Where a valid digital audio signal is connected to the DIGITAL AUDIO IN connector, the type of signal 
will appear in the Audio Status field on the Configure (audioPort) page. 
VN-MATRIX supports the auto-detection of 44100 Hz and 48000 Hz digital audio sources.
