Introduction

1.1 About the DM100

The Dolby DM100 is a hand-held diagnostic tool that can

monitor or generate Dolby Digital, Dolby E, and PCM

bitstreams. The unit allows audio systems integrators and service

engineers to quickly test the integrity and composition of these

signals throughout a facility. The DM100 is intended for use in

broadcast, cable, DBS, and post-production facilities, as well as

DVD mastering and home theater installation.

The DM100 accepts input signals via XLR, BNC, and Toslink™

connectors. The unit identifies the format of the input signal and

activates the appropriate built-in decoder. The decoded analog

signal, sent to a standard 1/8-inch stereo headphone jack, can be

switched to monitor any two decoded channels, while a small

built-in speaker can monitor the sum of any channel pair. A

front-panel LCD displays Dolby Digital and Dolby E metadata

information. Six front-panel LEDs indicate critical bitstream and

system status information.

A set of Dolby Digital, Dolby E, and PCM test bitstreams is

stored in internal, nonvolatile RAM, and can be changed in the

field via software download. The selected test bitstream is

produced simultaneously on all output connectors. The unit can

receive and decode an input signal while generating a test

bitstream. The DM100 also features a pass-through mode that

allows modification of the input signal’s AES channel status bits

before passing the signal to the output connectors. (The input

signal can be monitored simultaneously.)

Getting Started

2.1 Power

The DM100 is powered by four standard AA 1.5 V batteries or

from an external 6V, 800 mA DC power supply via the power

input connector. The internal batteries are disconnected when

the external DC power supply is used.

Battery Installation

Push the cover as

shown, and slide

out.

Insert four AA

batteries with

alternating positive

terminals, and

replace the cover.

Dead Battery…

[Power] Button

To turn on the DM100, press and hold the [Power] button down

for two seconds. The display reads as shown for approximately

one second while a self-test diagnostic runs.

The power-on process ends with the DM100 operating in the

last-used state. If the diagnostic test fails, the Error LED lights

and an error message is displayed.

To turn off the DM100, press [Power] again. The display reads

“Power Off,”and the unit shuts off.

Battery Low LED

The front-panel battery LED flashes when the

battery voltage drops below 4.3 V. If the

battery voltage drops below 4.1 V, the

DM100 display reads “Dead Battery”and the

unit shuts off.

Auto-Power Off

When the DM100 is powered from the batteries (external power

supply not connected), the unit can be set to turn itself off after a

selectable number of minutes with no user activity (5, 10, 15, or

30 minutes). This feature can be disabled. The factory default

setting is 15 minutes.

The wait time is set from the Setup menu under System Settings,

Power Management. See section 4.6.
