English version
Basic setup with a PC
•
Connect one of the computer’s USB ports to the
USB1
port on the Upsampler’s rear panel.
•
Press
the
Input
button repeatedly until
USB1
is displayed.
Open the Menu and select
Settings > Sync Mode > Master Mode
.
This is the Upsampler’s default
Sync Mode
for the USB and Network interfaces. The Upsampler does
not lock to the source clock, but uses the Upsampler’s internal clock instead. A control signal is sent
back to the source to control the delivery of data bursts from the computer. This arrangement avoids
the use of the computer’s inaccurate and jittery clock.
