Expand Digital Audio Input Capacity

The Model 1177 presents a great solution for consumers who want to connect multiple digital audio sources to A/V systems that have limited inputs. It allows the output of four sources to be connected to the input of a home theater receiver and/or TV. The 1177 accepts both optical (TosLinkª ) and coax (RCA jack) signals. Both signals are automatically converted to provide both types of outputs to the sound system, eliminating compatibility problems between products with differing digital connections.


Automatically Select the Active Source

Proprietary circuitry monitors the four sources connected to the 1177 AutoSelector for the presence of a digital signal and selects the active one automatically. Another feature allows the user to assign selection priority to those signals. Example: both a satellite receiver and a DVD player are connected to the AutoSelector. If the power on the satellite receiver is left on, its digital signal will be detected constantly by the AutoSelector. But by assigning the DVD player a higher priority, the AutoSelector would automatically select it whenever its signal was detected, even though there is also signal from the satellite receiver. A manual select button is provided to override the automatic selection. Multi-color front panel LEDs indicate source availability and selection status.
