3 – Rear Panel connectors
This section provides a brief description of the
functions of the connectors on the rear panel. For
full details of cables to be used, pinouts, etc., see
4, “Connections”.
[37] TIME CODE (IN and OUT)
This pair of XLR connectors (female for
IN
and
male for
OUT
) provides the timecode connections
for the synchronization functions of the DA-98.
See 10, “Operations related to timecode” for full
details.
[38] VIDEO (IN/THRU)
The
VIDEO
BNC connectors are used to carry
video frame sync signals when the DA-98 is used
with video equipment. The self-terminating
THRU
connector echoes messages received at the
IN
.
See 10.6, “Video resolution” and 11.1.1, “Video
clocking” for details of video sync operation.
[39] WORD SYNC (IN/OUT/THRU)
These BNC connectors are used to carry the word
clock between the DA-98 and other types of digi-
tal audio equipment. The
THRU
connector is self-
terminating. See 8.10, “Digital recording” for full
details.
[40] RS-422
This connector is used for controlling the DA-98
using controllers or editors which conform to the
Sony P2 protocol (RS-422). See 11.1, “Use with
9-pin external control” for full details of how to
use this connector.
[41] MIDI IN/OUT/THRU
These connectors carry MIDI Time Code (MTC)
and MMC (MIDI Machine Control) commands.
See 11.3, “MIDI Machine Control” for details of
how these facilities are used when synchronizing
to other units.
[42] CONTROL I/O
This connector is used for control of the DA-98 by
external equipment. Consult your TASCAM
dealer for full details of compatibility and the use
of this connnector.
The pinout for this connector is given in 15.1.6,
“CONTROL I/O connector pinout”.
[43] REMOTE IN/SYNC IN
This connector is used to connect another “mas-
ter” DTRS unit (e.g. DA-98, DA-88 or DA-38).
See 9, “Synchronization with other DTRS units”
for further details.
An RC-848 remote control unit may also be con-
nected here, but not all functions of the DA-98 are
available from the remote contol unit.
[44] SYNC OUT
This is used to connect another DTRS unit in the
“daisy-chain” or, if this DA-98 is the last unit in
the chain, to attach a termination plug.
[45] TDIF-1 (DIGITAL I/O)
This connector carries the digital signals to and
from the DA-98 in TEAC Digital Interface Format
(TDIF-1).
[46] METER UNIT (MU-8824)
This connector carries power and signals to drive
8 channels of the optional MU-8824 24-channel
Meter Unit.
Make the connection using a TASCAM PW-88M
cable.
[47] ANALOG INPUT
This connector carries 8 balanced inputs at a nom-
inal +4dBu level. This allows convenient and reli-
able single-cable connection to the GROUP
outputs of a suitably-equipped console such as the
TASCAM M-1600 series.
[48] ANALOG OUTPUT
This connector carries 8 balanced outputs at a
n4dBu level. This allows convenient and
reliable single-cable connection to the tape return
inputs of a suitably-equipped console such as the
TASCAM M-1600 series.
[49] ~ IN
Use the provided AC power cord to connect the
DA-98 to the AC power supply through this
connector.
