DVB Defaults Description
AD
x
where
x
= A, B, C, D, E,
or F
— The TDR6 can be configured with up to six separate audio
channels based on the installed option cards. The ports are
identified based on the following:
■ If only a TDEC-6100 option module is installed, audio
ports A and B can be configured.
■ If only a TAUD-6100 option module is installed, audio
ports A to D can be configured.
■ If both option modules are installed, audio ports A, B, C,
and D correspond to the audio ports located on the
TAUD-6100 board, while audio ports E and F correspond
to the audio ports located on the TDEC-6100 option
module.
For the remote command AD
x
,
x
= A, B, C, D, E, or F, and
designates the audio output that is the object of the
command, as described above.
Commands for all audio channels are the same.
When AD
x
is entered, the TDR6 returns the following audio
information for the designated channel: auto select, PID,
source, channel mode, volume, preferred language, sync,
delay, and rate.

AD
x
AUTO On, Off On Sets how PIDs are selected for the specified audio output:
■ On: TDR6 selects the lowest incoming PID
■ Off: Operator must enter the PID manually

CHANNELMODE Left, Right, Stereo Stereo Sets the mode for the specified audio output:
■ Left: Selects the audio stream from the left channel and
supplies that stream to both the audio left and audio right

DELAY -1000 to +1000
milliseconds
0 Sets the compressed audio bit stream buffer delay, which
controls the amount of time delay between the audio and
video.
Delay is primarily provided for interoperability with other
manufacturers’ equipment. It is not normally necessary to
use a non-zero delay value.
