INPUTS AND OUTPUTS

AES Audio Inputs (-D version)

All AES Audio input connections are made via this
25 way female D-type connector.

For connection data consult the tables on page 5.

AES Audio Inputs (-B versions)

All AES Audio input connections are made via BNC
connectors.

AES Reference Input (-D version)

A 48 kHz AES reference signal may be connected
to this 9 way D connector. When this input is
selected the outputs will be locked to this signal.

Reference Input (–D version)

This is for a video reference only. A black burst
signal (525 or 625 line standard) may be
connected to this BNC connector.

Reference Input (–B versions)

This is for a video reference and or an AES
reference signal.

The video signal may be a black burst or a
composite signal (525 or 625 line standard).

The AES reference should be a 48 kHz signal.

As supplied this input will terminate the signal in
75 Ohms. To change this to a high impedance
input remove the link as shown opposite.
