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.
