for connection to metering or monitoring
equipment that requires uninterrupted
full-level signals.
The post-fader surround digital monitor
output channels are intended to connect to
a 5.1 loudspeaker system. The post-fader
stereo digital monitor output is provided to
support a separate set of stereo monitor
loudspeakers.
The stereo input C direct digital monitor
output is essentially a unity gain copy of
the signal connected to stereo input C.
However, the signal does pass through the
sample rate conversion (SRC) and input
delay circuitry. The impact made by these
functions will depend on the specific input
signal and the Model 760-03’s configura-
tion settings.
The digital monitor outputs are balanced
AES3 digital audio sources with a nominal
impedance of 110 ohms and a nominal lev-
el of 5 Vpp. Signals of this type are normal-
ly interconnected to destination equipment
using shielded twisted-pair cable terminat-
ed with 3-pin male XLR connectors.
A cable assembly with a 25-pin male D-
sub connector (DB-25M) on one end and
the desired connectors on the other end
will be used for connecting to the digital
monitor outputs. The D-subminiature con-
nector follows the TASCAM-type wiring
convention, organizing the 25 pins into
eight groups of three pins each; one pin
remains unused. Each set of three pins
provides an independent interface. In the
analog world this would allow eight audio
signals to be transported. But with AES3
digital audio signals this allows support for
16 audio channels; eight interfaces each
supplying two audio channels.
A wiring assembly prepared for the Model
760-03’s monitor outputs would typically be
identical to that of a TASCAM-type output
assembly. An assembly of this type would
have a 25-pin male D-subminiature connec-
tor (DB-25M) on one end and eight 3-pin
male XLR connectors on the other.
For compatibility with balanced AES3 digital
audio signals connect the D-sub’s + ter-
minal as signal high and the – terminal as
signal low. In most applications a 3-pin male
XLR connector will be used. In this case
the + terminal would go to pin 2 of the XLR,
the – terminal to XLR pin 3, and the shield
terminal to XLR pin 1. Refer to Figure 5 or
Appendix A for the exact connection details.
Note that unlike a TASCAM-type assembly,
the two threaded fasteners associated
with the Model 760-03’s D-sub connectors
use 4-40 threads. This complies with the
original design standard for D-subminiature
connectors.

Notes:
1) All signals transformer-coupled digital audio;
balanced AES3 (110 ohms, 5 Vpp) compatible.
2) Connector type on Model 760-03 is 25-pin
female D-subminiature (DB-25F). Installer must
provide male (DB-25M). Connector uses 4-40
threaded inserts for locking with mating plug.
3) Wiring scheme follows AES59-2012 convention.
Standard TASCAM-type wiring harnesses are directly
compatible, with the possible exception of 4-40 screw
threads being required.
