8-channel Balanced
Analog Audio I/O
Two DB-25 TASCAM pinout, one input and one output, provide 8-channel balanced
audio. Audio is high-quality 24-bit A/D input and D/A output at 48kHz. Level adjustments
are made via software. Software level adjustments for analog audio (parameter 4.1) apply
to balanced audio.
AES Digital Audio I/O
AES digital audio connections consist of one DB-25 TASCAM pinout for 8 channels of
input and 8 channels of output.
RS-422 Connector
Ki Pro Ultra offers a 9-pin serial port that may be used with some RS-422 devices.
IMPORTANT: Not all RS-422 devices have been tested with Ki Pro Ultra, so AJA cannot definitively say
which devices may or may not communicate as expected with Ki Pro Ultra when
operated under RS-422 remote control. To see which devices or nonlinear editors have
been tested operating under RS-422 control, refer to the latest Ki Pro Ultra Release Notes
document.
For details on using RS-422 machine control setup, see “35.2 Remote Control” on page 53 .
Power Connector
On the back of Ki Pro Ultra are two standard 4-pin male XLR
connectors for supplying 12-Volt DC power to the unit. You can
use either the supplied AC Adapter or furnish your own battery
source. Since the connector is an industry standard pinout,
choices are varied and flexible. Many 3rd party vendors offer
products using this standardized power connector.
Pin 1: -
Pin 4: +
Pins 2 and 3: not used
Warning!
Ki Pro Ultra has no user-serviceable parts. To remove power from the unit, remove the
4-pin XLR power connector to ensure disconnection. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel. Servicing is required when the device has been damaged in any
way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the device, the device has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
Warning!
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized
plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two
blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided
for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician
for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
