Notice
1. PT-1232 mainly checks the audio channel in audio group 1&2 or 3&4. Please adjust DIP switch pin 3 for setup.
2. Some HDMI equipped TV may not be able to decipher multiple channel audio, and therefore set DIP switch pin-2 to
ON(ª) to get stereo audio work and then check if multiple channel support is available.
3. While DIP Switch pin-4 is set to OFF(©), 3G Level B will be automatically converted to Level A.
4. PT-1232 supports only audio sample frequency 48kHz.
5. While stereo audio is chosen, CH 1 & 2 of Group 1 or 3 are output.
