Please do the following:

1) Set DIG-IN to XLR or RCA according to which you use.

2) Set SR-CNV to OFF

3) Set CLOCK to INT 48.

4) Plug a cable from the digital input to the digital output specified in (1).

5) if EXT is off, go to (7)

6)  If EXT is always flashing, your unit or cable are faulty. Try a different cable and to to (4).

7) Disconnect the digital cable. If EXT does not flash, your unit is faulty.

8) Reconnect the digital cable, and restart the unit with ‘5’ key held down.

9) Release the key immediately you see “001 Test All”

10) Turn the knob until you see either “510 AES Digital” or “512 S/PDIF Coaxial” as appropriate.

11) Press TAP. The “P=” number should increment every few seconds.

12) Let it run for a few minutes.

13) If either the “E=” or “T=” number are not zero (0), your unit or cable are faulty.

14) If your unit is not faulty, there is some problem with your setup, and you should seek local technical help.

 

 

 

Hi everyone, 

I have some trouble using SPDIF on RCA, and also noticed some sync problems (not always but sometimes) using adat on toslink. I run the test as suggested (linking in-out and holding the 5 key at the start up) and E T are not zero. I’ve already tried with different cables, memory reset, software reinstallation via flash card… nothig has solved the “ext” flashing when i try to sync with the rme ff400 via spdif. what sould i do? whome may I ask for technical assistance in Italy?

thanks, Daniele
