5.1. Introduction
Using 24 bit, 96kHz capable devices, the RB-DAC1 Digital to
Analogue Converter is a 1U rack-mount which produces a stereo
balanced XLR or unbalanced phono output from an incoming
AES/EBU or S/PDIF digital input signal. There is also a headphone
output for monitoring purposes.
The analogue outputs have an output level control, allowing full-scale
settings selectable from +12dBu, +18dBu or +24dBu. De-emphasis on the output
can be enabled via dipswitch.
There is a button to select either the AES/EBU or S/PDIF input for the D/A converter,
which is located on the rear panel.
When operating, the front panel power LED flashes whenever the unit is not
synchronised to the incoming digital signal.
