ADX-32B / ADX-64B-PRO
7.6.Wordclock
The wordclock jack can be operated in two modes, which can be set with DIP switch #6:

OUTPUT: In this mode, the ADX derives its clock signal from the signal on ADAT1. The extracted wordclock
signal is additionally available on the WORDCLOCK jack and can be used to clock other devices (ADCs etc.).
Please note: DIP switch 5 (WCK Term) should be set to „OFF“ in this operating mode.
This mode is recommended in most cases. The only thing you need to care about is that the signal on ADAT1
comes directly from your clock master (e.g. the mixing console).

INPUT : In this mode, the ADX expects a clock signal on the WORDCLOCK jack (which is configured as an
input). If the clock is missing, the device does not work (LEDs are blinking if ADAT signals are present but no
wordclock).
This mode is recommended if you are using an external master clock. The ADX on the other side of the Cat5
should be set to wordclock output – the master clock will be transmitted over the Cat5 cable and is available
on the BNC jack on the remote ADX.
Note: WCK Termination (DIP switch #5) should be set to „ON“ if you are connecting an coax cable directly to
the ADX. When the ADX is connected via a „T“-shaped adapter and the wordclock cable continues to other
devices, WCK Termination should be switched off.
Wordclock termination on other devices

The wordclock master device (the sender) should be located at the end of the BNC cable chain. If there is any
termination switch or jumper, it must be “OFF”.

All devices in the middle of the cable (which are usually connected by “T”-shaped adapters must have their
wordclock termination set to “OFF”.

The last device on the chain (where the cable ends) must have the wordclock termination set to “ON”. This
can either be done by setting the appropriate switch or jumper on the device, or, if there is no such thing, by
installing a “T”-shaped BNC adapter with a 75 ohms resistor attached. Different manufacturers handle word-
clock termination differently, please refer to the manual of the respective device for instructions.
