Remote control

  • Install 2 x AAA batteries as instructions.
  • When using the remote control, point it toward the remote con-trol signal receiver on the main unit from a distance of 5 m (16 ft) or less. Do not place obstructions between the main unit and the remote control.
  • The remote control might not work if the remote control signal receiver on the unit is exposed to direct sunlight or bright light. If this occurs, try moving the unit. Beware that use of this remote control could cause the unin-tentional operation of other devices that can be controlled by infra.

Graph

DPLL

  • DPLL 1~9, the lower the value, the smaller the clock jitter.
  • This DPLL setting is a unique function of ESS series products. It can adjust the bandwidth of the DPLL digital phase-locked loop circuit inside the chip, so that the chip can achieve a balance between anti-clock jitter and input tolerance. Effect:
  • When the clock stability of the input signal is good, this value can be reduced, so that the clock performance of the system is better;
  • When the clock stability of the input signal is not good, the sound may be interrupted. Increasing this value can avoid the occurrence of audio interruption! Especially when using TV as the signal source.

USB MODE(USB Input)

  • U1.0 MODE, U1.1 MOD
    1. 1. All USB devices can be connected without driver.
    2. It can support the connection of various game consoles, such as XBOX, PS4, PS5 and so on.
    3. USB1.1 only supports up to 24bit/96kHz
  • U2.0
    (USB2.0 needs to install the driver when connecting to the WIN system, and supports high-standard sampling rate)

BRIGHTNESS (DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS SETTING)

  • bL1-8 (Brightness Level 1~8, The Smaller The Value, The Lower The Brightness.)
