Mac Users: Disconnect your FireWire connection before changing modes or your Mac

computer will lock up.

To change modes please do the following:

To go to mode 2, press and hold the encode button for 3 seconds and release. The 12

bit and 16 bit encode LED's will alternate as a confirmation.

To go to mode 3 press and hold the encode button again for 3 seconds and release.

The CV and S/YUV LED's will alternate as a confirmation.

If the encode button is pressed and held again the DAC-2 will go back Mode 1”. It is confirmed

by the 12 bit and 16 bit encode LED's staying lit for 2 seconds.

Sometimes one power supply can get confused with another. The DAC-2 uses a 9 VDC 1200mA,

AC adaptor. Using the wrong power supply can cause the DAC-2 to become unstable or not power on.

C. Preview Monitor Connections

If you would like to monitor your video, a composite video cable can be used to connect a

video monitor. Connect a composite RCA cable from the rear of the DAC-2 and connect the

opposite end to the input of your monitor.

Note: S-video cables only carry a video signal, so you will need to connect your RCA audio

cables to the converter to capture sound.

D. Initial Software configuration

Adobe Premiere 6.5 in Windows (Windows XP Screen shots are shown for reference only)
