About the glowing buttons DX UP & DOWN - This is turned on and off by long pressing DX UP. You can turn on the backlight and set your favorite color DX UP & DOWN - Long presses switch quickly.

Не имею представления
У меня пока нет Scaler
но я активно ищу где его можно получить
попробовать с дэйвом
Oh. Sorry. I wanted to ask everyone. )

Don't know how you would make a digital recording out of a device that uses dual Coax as an interface to put out 24/705 or 768khz, I would say not possible.
I think he just wanted to somehow record the sound that comes out of the Scaler

I think it's possible to do this if he will find the right equipment.

Something that will take the output from the scaler and just write it to a file.

need such a thing

only the other way around

so that it receives a signal from 2 bnc
and gives it via usb

I think it's possible to find it somewhere

Maybe, someone will probably create it 😂

in fact, if he omit the requirements for Dual bnc - then the task becomes much easier
The whole point is precisely in the maximum upscale.
I'm just curious. I don't have a computer)

yes I understand it perfectly

but the difficulty is that you want to record a digital signal

precisely digital and not analog

and from the available interfaces - only dual bnc

I did not find anything that can use this type of interface for recording

I think you can try to look for something that can do this through an optical channel.

here is a description of how you can take the optics from the 768k scaler

if you find something that can record a signal from optics to a file - the problem is solved

The final thing to try before sending something back as faulty:
  1. disconnect both BNC cables from M Scaler
  2. disconnect one BNC cable from TT2
  3. connect the remaining TT2 BNC cable to the "single output" socket on M Scaler - this is the socket next to the pair of DBNC connections
  4. set the "video" button to "off"
  5. make sure the "input" button is either white for USB or pink for auto
  6. make sure the "OP SR" button is set to red
  7. play a CD rip from your PC (44.1KHz)
  8. make sure TT2 input selection is set for the BNC connection you used on the back of TT2
  9. tell us what result you got at step 8
  10. move the BNC cable from one input of the TT2 to the other BNC input on TT2
  11. make sure TT2 input selection is set for the new BNC connection on the back of TT2
  12. tell us what result you got at step 11
  13. disconnect the BNC cable from both M Scaler and TT2
  14. use the other BNC cable to make the connection between M Scaler and TT2, using the same socket on both M Scaler and TT2 as in step 11
  15. tell us the result of step 14
  16. move the BNC cable from the current input on TT2 to the other input on TT2
  17. make sure the TT2 input selection is set for the newly made connection on the back of TT2
  18. tell us the result of step 17
  19. disconnect the BNC cable from both M Scaler and TT2 (you must do this!)
  20. connect the M Scaler and TT2 using an optical cable, making sure that the cable firmly clicks into position on both units
  21. set TT2 input for the optical connection that you've used
  22. tell us the result of step 21
  23. move the optical cable to the other M Scaler output and to the other TT2 input and set TT2 to this input
  24. tell us the result of step 23
  25. if your PC has an optical output, use the optical connection from PC to M Scaler. Ideally you have 2 optical cables to perform this step, otherwise use a single BNC cable to connect M Scaler and TT2
  26. tell us the result of step 25
  27. if your PC has an optical output, use the optical connection from PC to TT2 and set TT2 for the optical input for PC. Make sure there are no BNC cables connected to TT2
  28. tell us the result of step 27
There's lots of tests here and none of these tests involve up-scaling the audio sample rate. We need to know whether your system is able to "pass through" CD quality from your PC to TT2 via M Scaler. If all of these tests (except for 28) fail, then the problem is with M Scaler. Test 28 should not fail!

It seems very likely that the M Scaler is faulty, but if any of these test results (excluding 28) are "works OK" then there could be a setup problem relating to power connections or the placement of M Scaler. If you provide us with all of the test results it will make the nature of your problem clearer for us to understand.

The other thing I've done with these tests is to attempt to prove that the fault is not within TT2. Since there are two BNC inputs and two optical inputs on TT2, I've provided many tests to potentially identify a problem with a TT2 input (any of BNC or optical could be faulty). I'm guessing you have only ever used USB and because M Scaler doesn't have a USB output there is still a question mark over the four inputs on TT2 that you've never used before.

[EDIT: fixed step 24 - in case anyone else tries to use these steps]
Goggled because my TT2 also displayed x ip and thank you for typing out the steps. This problem for me started recently after I used the TT2 remote. Can’t remember what I pressed but have this issue thereafter. I just bought a new pair of BNC cables but TT2 also displayed x ip. I tested the TT2 solely using USB and it works fine. Will try the steps and hopefully it’s just a setting issue or a case of me pressing the wrong thing. My setup is Silent Angel Rhein Z1 Plus (Roon server) > USB > HMS > Dual BNC > TT2 > amps (iFi Pro iCAN Signature, GoldenWave/HFM Prelude or Cayin Soul 170HA) > headphones.
