Installation
Connecting digital audio inputs
Your ECM is equipped with a high quality digital to analog converter (DAC) to give you the very best
audio quality from your digital media files.
The DAC section of your ECM is also equipped with 4 digital inputs for connecting external digital audio
sources such as: CD players, TV decoders/Set top boxes, etc.
Use these inputs to take advantage of superb analogue audio quality of your ECM, getting the best pos-
sible audio quality from all your digital sources.
Your ECM supports connecting up to 4 different digital audio sources. 2 RCA plugs (labeled COAX 1
and COAX 2) for connecting S/PDIF coaxial audio cable and 2 Toslink plugs (Labeled TOSLINK 1 and
TOSLINK 2) for connecting S/PDIF optical cable.
Connecting trigger in/out
Your ECM is equipped with trigger input and trigger output ports. These ports can be used for automati-
cally putting your ECM and other equipment into, or wake up from, standby mode.
Use the trigger input port for connecting to a trigger output signal from other equipment. The ECM will
power up (leave standby mode) when a voltage in the range of 8V-20V (AC or DC) is detected on the
trigger input port, and will remain powered on for as long as the voltage is present on the trigger input port.
Use the trigger output to send the trigger signal to your amplifier, TV, projector or other equipment that
support triggers signals. This signal can be used to automatically switch on/off the connected equipment
when you turn on/off your ECM. Trigger output is 12V DC.
Use a 3,5mm mono jack plug for connecting to trigger input and trigger output.
Initial setup screen
When your ECM is started for the first time,
a setup wizard will guide you through the
basic settings needed to set up your ECM
for optimal performance. The setup wizard
consists of a few easy steps and will only
take a couple of minutes to complete.

NOTE:
Audio from the digital inputs of your ECM will be available on the analogue outputs only.
The digital inputs supports PCM 96kHz/24bit on Toslink and PCM 192kHz/24bit on COAX.

NOTE:
The ECM will only react to a change in the trigger signal.
When the detected trigger signal goes from low to high, ECM will wake from standby.
When the detected trigger signal goes from high to low, ECM will go into standby.
A low trigger signal is defined as less than 1V (AC or DC)
A high trigger signal is defined as more than 8V(AC or DC)
The voltage supplied to the trigger input must not exceed 20V (AC or DC)
A trigger signal is not mandatory to operate the ECM.
