4 Configuration
4.1 Analogue output levels
The DAC-AES has two eight-way miniature DIP switches located near the middle of the card.
Switches 1-4 and 5-8 control the output signal levels for the left and right channels
respectively. Switches on SW1 control the levels for converter 1 while switches on SW2
control the levels for converter 2. The picture below shows the converter configured to
produce an output level of +12 dBu with a digital input level of 0 dBFS (Full scale).
Figure 2
The settings for the level switches are presented in the following table.
0 corresponds to off. 1 corresponds to on.
The three numbers in the top row should be read as: SW1, SW2, SW3 or SW6,SW7,SW8.

Switches 4 and 5 connect a trimpot into the gain circuit, which may be used to set a
customer defined output level.
