Selecting the Wordclock Source
In addition to using DME Manager, as explained on page 229, the wordclock source can
also be set via the front panel. Source settings made from the front panel override those
made from DME Manager.
In a multiple-unit system, the wordclock source can be set only on DME32 #1. The
other DME32s automatically receive their wordclocks via the cascade connections.
1
Use the [UTILITY] button to select the “Setup word clock” function.
2
Use the DATA wheel or [INC] and [DEC] buttons to select a wordclock source.
The DME32 checks the selected source to see if a usable wordclock signal is available. If
such a signal exists, the DME32 locks to it and the LOCK indicator lights up. The 48kHz
indicator lights up if the selected wordclock is at 48 kHz; the 44.1kHz indicator lights
up if it’s at 44.1 kHz. Neither indicator lights up for other wordclock frequencies.
If a usable wordclock signal is not found, the DME32 will not operate and the LOCK
indicator does not light up. In this situation, you must either select another wordclock
source, or correct the selected external wordclock source. This condition also occurs if
an external wordclock source is disconnected or the device supplying it is turned off.
3
Press the [UTILITY] button repeatedly until the UTILITY indicator goes out.
When using digital I/O cards other than the MY8-AE, the external wordclock is sourced
from input 1/2 regardless of which input is selected.
