Why my DAC will not work with the Mus. Fid. V-Link

I have a wonderful Museatex Bidat, and I just purchased a Musical Fidelity V-Link (earlier black box version). I have not been able to make the Bidat lock on the signal, the V-link works well with an inexpensive DAC I purchased on ebay, but I want to use my better converter, would anyone know what the problem is?
I'll appreciate any input.
Thanks so much

Even though S/PDIF is a specification, there are lots of implementations of both the driver and receiver. I have seen a lot of different ones having modded transports and DACs for about 10 years.

Some of these are finicky I have found. You may just have a finiky receiver on the Bidat, or the output on the V-link does not meet specs.
