Word Clock Input / Output
When playing a disc, the
W/Clock In
connector (Q) will accept standard 44.1kHz word clock from a
master clock. When the Digital Inputs are in use, this input is disabled.
When playing a disc, the
W/Clock Out
connector (R) carries a 44.1kHz word clock. When the Digital
Inputs are in use, this output is disabled.
Word clock is used for synchronisation only, it does not carry digital audio data.
Power Link
These connectors (S) can be linked to similar connectors on other dCS units with this feature
(manufactured from 2004 to 2006) using a link cable. All units linked in this way may be turned on or
off or set to standby by pressing a single
Power
button or sending one Remote Control command.
Link cables are available from dCS.
SUC
Connector
The
SUC
connector (T) is an RS232 interface, primarily used to remotely control the unit during
automated testing. Please contact dCS for the codes to use this interface with a household automation
system. Note that we recommend using infra-red remote control instead.
Mains inlet
Power is connected via a standard IEC320 connector (V), protected by a fuse (W) and isolated by a 2-
pole power switch (U).
