output your material.
COPY ENABLE

- No copies

Note: The copy protection is only valid with S/PDIF signals.
Status Bit Out
AES/EBU
When AES/EBU is selected the DBMAX will transmit its own
professional set of status bits, meaning that any incoming ID will
be lost. However, in order to take full advantage of the
DBMAX's 24 bit resolution you should select AES/EBU to make
sure that the receiving device after the DBMAX will accept all
24 bits.
S/PDIF
When S/PDIF is selected, the DBMAX will transmit its own
consumer status bits out, meaning that any incoming ID will be
lost. The DBMAX's S/PDIF Output carries up to 24 bits.
Only the S/PDIF signal contains copy protection information.
From Input
When this setting is selected the DBMAX will transmit the same
information as it received. However, you still have the possibility
to change the copy status.
