• 4 or -10

Selects between Consumer level (-10dBV) or
Professional level (+4dBu) inputs.
(Use the -10dBV setting if your input is too weak.)

• O4 or -10

Selects between Consumer level (-10dBV) or
Professional level (+4dBu) outputs.
(The +4 dBu setting outputs a hotter level.)

• PCI Card Optical Input

Selects between ADAT or optical S/PDIF for the 1010
PCI card ADAT Input. The coaxial S/PDIF input is
disabled when S/PDIF optical is selected.

• PCI Card Optical Output

Selects between ADAT or optical S/PDIF for the 1010
PCI card ADAT Output. The coaxial S/PDIF Output is
disabled when S/PDIF optical is selected.

• S/PDIF Optical Format

Selects between S/PDIF or AES/EBU format for S/PDIF.
This sets the S/PDIF-AES status bit, but does not affect
the signal level.
