SDIF-2
or
Slave Clock In
(BNC): This connector can receive either an SDIF or Slave
Clock Sync signal (the FC726 automatically detects the signal type). An SDIF device must
send a Word Sync signal to this connector to interface properly. Slave Clock is a sync signal
(commonly implemented in Pro Tools systems and referred to as a
super-clock
) that runs
at 256 times the sample rate. Pro Tools users may optionally connect the Slave Clock output
from another Digidesign audio interface or synchronization unit (i.e., 888-24) to the Slave
Clk In connector to synchronize both devices. Cable not provided.
Slave Clock Out
(BNC): Pro Tools users may optionally connect the Slave Clk Out to
another Digidesign audio interface
or synchronization unit (i.e., 888-24) to synchronize
both devices. This allows both a Digi
design I/O unit and the FC726 to be connected to the
same Pro Tools computer. If Slave Clk In has a vali
d sync signal, it is passed through to
Slave Clk Out. If Slave Clk In does not have a vali
d sync signal, the lowest numbered bank
of eight inputs that is locked and in use is sel
ected as the clock source (cable not provided).
MADI B In 1 / MADI B Out 1
(two BNC): Connect these MADI Ports to the DF66
or optional Failover Switch
(cable provided).
Format B AES Sync In
(female XLR): Connect this port to a digital sync reference.
Format B AES Sync Thru
(male XLR): This signal is active regardless of selected
Format B Word In
(BNC): Connect this port to a digital sync reference.
Format B Word Out
(BNC): This signal is active regardless of selected sync source.
