Confidence Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates the PCM96 Surround is detecting excessive jitter or noise on the digital audio line. No data has been corrupted, but corrective action should be taken.

Sample Slip - An unchanging number indicates you are not slipping samples. An increasing number indicates samples are misaligned with the window defined by the Input Source. This may occur when an external master changes sample rate, or when it is just powering up, but should not occur in normal operation.

Bi-Phase Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates that at least one bit (and therefore at least one audio sample) was corrupted.

CRC Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates a Cyclic Redundancy Check error in the incoming data.

Parity Error - “0” indicates no problem. “1” indicates that at least one bit (and therefore at least one audio sample) was corrupted.
