Customising the input configuration
The Vivaldi Upsampler’s inputs can be renamed to suit your particular system using a computer
running a terminal emulator program. The Vivaldi DAC has the same feature. The procedure using a
Windows PC with TeraTerm is described here, but other programs such as PuTTY or ZTerm could be
used. If you have difficulty with this, please ask your Dealer for help.
•
Power up the Upsampler and a Windows PC.
•
If no suitable terminal program (for example Hyperterminal) is already installed, download Tera
Term from
http://en.sourceforge.jp/projects/ttssh2/releases/
and install it on your PC. (If the link is
broken, please search for the latest version of Tera Term online.)
Set the Upsampler’s
Settings > RS232
menu page to the
T
ext option.
•
Use a USB-to-RS232 adapter cable to connect the
Upsampler’s
Test
port to one of the PC’s USB
ports.
•
Run ttermpro.exe.
•
Click the
Serial
button – Tera Term will
automatically select the port connected to the
Upsampler. Click
OK
.
•
Click
Setup > Serial Port
, set the
Baud rate
to
4800
