Display
There are three types of homepage display: Normal, VU and FFT, which are
stein the menu [SETUP – Display – Home].
There are two types of VU Meter styles: classic and blue, which can be
switched in the menu (SETUP – Display – VU style].
The VU meter, FFT and Level meter on the left and right screens display the balanced output amplitude of the Line Out of the left and right channels (unaffected by the volume control) . The 0dB in the blue VU meter, Level meter, and FFT is 4.2Vrms, and the 0dB in the classic meter is +4dBu or +10dBu.
It can be set i the menu [Setup Menu-Display Classic VU 0dB)
VU Meter, FFT and Level meter do not support DSD512

On/Off trigger
Signal (Default) : Input signal will trigger the device to turn on, but if the current input is not connected or input signal is invalid in 1 minute, it will automatically enter the standby state. Once having detected valid signal, it will automatically return to working state.
12V: 12V signal will trigger the device to turn on. When TP211’s Trigger In is connected to another device’s 12V Trigger Out, TP211’s on/standby state can be controlled through this device. The TP211 will remain in standby state until Trigger In detects the signal change from OV to 12V. When changing back to OV, the TP211 will return to standby state.
Off: Disabled this function. -
