Consistency Check<br />

The consistency check is constantly running as a background task. It<br />

compares the carrier information with the status information. E.g. the<br />

sampling frequency claims to be 44.1 kHz but in reality is 48.0 kHz.<br />

Such errors are immediately displayed via a flashing square around<br />

the individual status information.<br />

Measurement Functions<br />

Fig 5-06, Channel status consistency check<br />

The consistency check is carried out with the following parameters:<br />

• Sample frequency<br />

• Word length<br />

• Clock accuracy<br />

• 1C2f usage<br />

Application hints:<br />

• Wrong signalization of the sample frequency of digital audio<br />

devices may cause real trouble.<br />

• Some units expected to be e.g. 24 bit devices, signalize 24<br />

bit in the channel status but only send 22 relevant bits. The<br />

consistency check helps to see this problems quick and<br />

easy.<br />

Channel Status Details<br />

Detailed information about the interpretation of each individual bit and<br />

bytes may be found in the normative documents IEC 60958-3 and<br />

AES3. A summary is given in the appendix.<br />
