modification, or failure to the USB storage

devices. We strongly recommend you back

up the data in the USB storage device before

using it on element X.

6.4 IIS-LVDS Port

The IIS port of element X is a standard 19-pin HDMI
connector. It uses four sets of LVDS differential signals
to transmit IIS data. It supports up to 32Bit/768kHz
PCM signal input and 1Bit/45.1MHz DSD signal input.
The PCM format is the standard IIS format, the DSD
format supports the original DSD format (Native DSD)
and the DSD format of DoP encoding.

The IIS port of element X is compatible with TYPE A
and TYPE B. These are 2 different interface definitions,
which can be configured in the 8th setting option.

The port definition as shown bellow:

IIC SCL/DSD/PCM

TYPE_B:
