WheatNet-IP BLADE 3 / Jan 2016
Model IP 88d
I
nputs
The WheatNet-IP 88d is fed from digital inputs via two DB-25 or eight RJ-45
connectors.
The WheatNet-IP 88d will accommodate digital inputs having a wide range of
sample rates. These inputs will be sample rate converted to the system’s chosen sample
rate of 44.1kHz or 48kHz, which is set via the WheatNet-IP Navigator GUI. The GUI
also allows you to select input 8 of the digital BLADE 3, or of any BLADE 3 that has
a digital input as input 8, to be a primary external reference, and a digital input 8 from
a different BLADE 3 to be a secondary external reference. Please note that the sample
rate of a digital input 8 should be the same, either 44.1kHz or 48kHz, as the system’s
chosen sample rate.
AES sources are by design stereo; if the BLADE 3 is not set to be stereo the appropriate
Left or Right signal within the AES stream will be applied to the signal path.
