SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Introduction The Dolby Model DP524 is a digital audio decoder unit supporting both Dolby AC- 2 and Dolby AC-3 digital audio coding algorithms. The unit supports up to two channels of audio. The data rates available are considerably lower than that required to convey conventional PCM data (between 40k and 384k bits/sec) yet provide exceedingly high audio quality. The unit automatically configures itself for the appropriate data rate, sample rate and algorithm type. Bot

SECTION 2 APPLICATIONS The Dolby Model DP524 is suitable for a variety of point-to-point and point-to- multipoint digital transmission applications, including cable, telecommunications and satellite or terrestrial microwave links. The very high audio quality and low, spectrum-efficient data rates of the AC-2 and AC-3 coding process make them particularly appropriate for these applications. 2.1 Cable Whether for audio-only services or for an enhanced digital audio service accompanying video, the

Note The front panel is attached to the top cover by means of 4 screws also affixing the handles. These do not need to be removed. By grasping the front panel handles, gently pull the top cover/front panel assembly forward then away towards the rear. Carefully set aside this sub- assembly.
