Hi all,

Since some while I tried to connect the Toslink module again.
Mainly I'm operating with the !2S Teleporter input to the Day BIII.

I want to connect the TV Box via optical cable to the DAC so I ordered a new Toslink module in advance and connected it like it alway's did.

Unfortunately no lock to the signal.
The module receives 5,25V.
The W10 PC drivers are up to date.

What can I do to check?

Can I still connect the Toslink directly to the DAC board since it is Consumer level configured?

Thanks in advance!

Jordo

Connecting the Toslink directly to the DAc does not help tough.

The voltage regulator receives 5,25 in and produces 3,25V out.

I assume you are connecting the Toslink module to the S/PDIF input of the DAC?

If so, do you have the Toslink configured for consumer-level S/PDIF output?

Hi Brian,

I have the Toslink module Consumer Level configured.

I use the S/PDIF-4 Input Board i.c.w. the Sidecar.

But now I try to connect the Toslink module directly to D2 of the Buffalo III digital input connector.

And when connected to the S/PDIF-4 Board I use INB.
I also tried INC.
Do I use GND or - ? I always thought GND.

I see some vague action in the lock led when I bypass oversampling and reklocking but that's far from a steady lock.

Hm okay,

I'm starting to understand why I omitted the Toslink module again a view years ago.

The S/PDif Auto detect (Dip Sw 2:5) needs to be bypassed because, when used, it causes dropouts on the I2S/ Teleporter input.

But the Toslink requires this setting to be used...

I'm gonna quit my renewed attempts to use the Toslink module again.

I don't know how to do it yet but maybe I can use the HDMI input of the Raspberry Pi as an audio passthrough from my TV settopbox to USB audio out...
