Bit Activity Monitoring Overview
This monitors activity on the selected input and indicates the wordlength of the

can be used for DSD outputs if the input is PCM. To monitor the PCM output,
use Level Meters instead.

and press Set or Status. With a substantial 20 bit input signal, the display will

The display is updated approximately three times per second.
