ADC-3981 Installation and Operation Manual

  

 Chapter 1: Introduction

Product Description

The ADC-3981 consists of two independent audio processing units, 
capable of handling two pairs (four channels) of analog audio inputs, 
and two pairs of digital audio outputs. This module has full audio 
processing capabilities, including gain, channel swap, invert, and delay 
control. The ADC-3981 also has four independent tone generators. 

Main Features

These are the main features of the ADC-3981 module: 

Two independent analog-to-digital conversion channels

32/44.1/48/96 kHz capability

Selectable 16-, 20-, and 24-bit analog-to-digital conversion

Internal audio processing amplifier

Multiple tone generators (750 Hz, 1.5 kHz, 3 kHz, and 6 kHz)

Four balanced analog audio inputs

Peak/Silence/Tone indication

Selectable delay for each channel

Two balanced and two unbalanced AES audio outputs

External video and DARS reference input 

Capability for control via card-edge, local control panels, remote 
control panels, and GUI applications (3901RES-E resource module 
is required for Ethernet use)
