Main unit

This switch is pressed when using this unit 
as a D/A converter.

1.   Each time the DIGITAL IN switch is 

pressed, the display changes as follows.

The coaxial and optical inputs support the following signals.
Sampling frequency 

:  32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 

88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 
192 kHz

Number of quantization bit  : 16-bit, 20-bit, 24-bit

The USB input supports the following signals.
• PCM signal
Sampling frequency 

:  32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 

88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 
192 kHz

Number of quantization bit  : 16-bit, 24-bit, 32-bit
When the OS is Windows, the dedicated driver software 
needs to be installed.
Refer to “Driver Installation Manual” on the LUXMAN web-
site for detailed information.

With Mac, this unit is automatically recognized.

Caution:

Connection between a PC and this unit with use of a USB ca-
ble shall not be performed before the installation of this driver 
software is completed. Failure to observe this may cause mal-
function.

2.   The selected input type and sampling 

status are displayed on the main unit 
display window.

This sampling frequency and bit count of the digital signal 
are displayed, which is connected to the input terminal 
(COAX/OPT/USB) selected with the digital input selection 
switch. When one of COAX/OPTICAL/USB is selected us-
ing the digital input selection switch and the digital signal 
from each digital device and this unit are synchronized, the 
sampling frequency and bit count of the digital signal are 
displayed. 
When a digital signal input is not provided or the signal is not 
synchronized even if the signal input is provided, “UNLOCK” 
is displayed.
When USB is selected, only the sampling frequency is dis-
played. The bit count is not displayed.

•  The bit count (word length) indicates the contents of the 

word length data included in the channel status which is 
specified in IEC60958-3 (digital audio interface - Part 3: 
consumer applications).

   Some output devices may provide channel status data 

(word length data) whose content is different from the 
actual word length. In such a case, the contents of the 
channel status data are indicated on the display instead 
of the actual bit count.

Alternatively, some devices or sources may provide 
the data that states “the word length is not specified”.  
In such a case, the bit count is not displayed.

•   There may be a case where the display indicates “LOCK” 

shortly, and then “UNLOCK”. (The reverse case is also 
possible.) That is because the former state (LOCK/
UNLOCK) is indicated for approx. 0.5 seconds since an 
input signal is changed until the circuit gets stable.
