Hey all,
I got moOde 7.0.1 up and running over the weekend. And I'd finally had the time hook up my USB DAC to the moOde Pi. Well, I went to power up my Topping D50S and the LCD said "Protect". I thought that ain't good but I could not figure out what had happened.
Well, the low-noise DC power supply I bought was 12V not 5V. Oops. I contacted Topping and they said hook it up to USB and see. I got the reply today at work. My replacement 5V power supply just arrived at home. I was hoping the Topping reply would have been a bit more in depth. Like say, "Oh yes, there's an over-voltage circuit that cuts power in these cases."
So, in general, do electronics that can display at protection status usually has a feature to prevent damage. Or could it just be, "Hey, you're f'ed." I've googled to see if this unit has such protection. I can find protections like this on other DACs, but nothing mentioned specifically on the D50S. I am wondering if I should return the unit or keep it if it does work?
What say you?
