Operation
1) Which operation mode is basically needed?
→
»MODE«
Should my MC-3+ work as clock generator (»INTERNAL«), as clock distributor (»EXTERNAL«) or as audio
signal re-clocker (»RE-CLOCK«)?
2) Which reference do I need for my clocking application?
→
»REFERENCE«
3) Do I need different clock rates at the same time?
→
»CLOCK
MULTIPLIERS
«
After these general decisions are made, your MC-3+ is configured for optimal operation in your set-up. Due to the fact that the
system monitors for useful function combinations, maloperation is not possible.
So, let‘s have a look to the individual functions.
Selecting Modes
This setting example shows the MC-3+ locked to its internal ultra-low jitter clock base generating output clocks of 44.1 kHz at
any available output. This is the factory default setting.
