Refer to the »Synchronizable and gene-
ratable Clock Rates« section in the APPENDIX
for a full list of all Word Clock, AES/EBU and
S/P-DIF clock rates that can be generated.
For detailed specifications on all terminals,
refer to the »Pin assignment of the
Connectors« and »Technical Data« sections
in the APPENDIX.

5 PAL/NTSC VIDEO OUT
SD bi-level PAL and NTSC composite video sync signals are sent from these
outputs. After installing the optional P/NVSG-02 video sync generator (item
no. 8010-010), a separate video format can be assigned to each output pair.
Associated output pairs are arranged on top of each other.
If a HD tri-level sync signal is applied to a reference input, the incoming
reference can be distributed through the PAL/NTSC video outputs.
The individual BNC terminals of an output pair are marked as A and B; this
allows, for example, for a simple documentation of the connected devices.
6 WORD CLOCK OUT
These outputs send Word Clock, Word Clock x 256 signals and film / video
frame / field clock rates. Each of the output pairs can be assigned with a sepa-
rate clock rate. Associated output pairs are arranged on top of each other.
The individual BNC terminals of an output pair are marked as A and B; this
allows, for example, for a simple documentation of the connected devices.
7 + 8 AES/EBU OUT1, AES/EBU OUT2
These outputs send a balanced digital AES/EBU audio or blank frame signal
compliant with AES3 – 1992 (R1997) and AES11 – 1997. Each of the output
pairs can be assigned with a separate clock rate, and the channel status bits
can be edited individually. The rear-panel outputs are marked as AES OUT 1
and AES OUT 2, the individual output terminals as »A« and »B«; this allows,
for example, for a simple documentation of the connected devices.
9 S/P-DIF OUT
These outputs send an unbalanced digital S/P-DIF audio or blank frame
signal compliant with IEC 60958. The channel status bits can be edited. The
individual output terminals are marked as A and B; this allows, for example,
for a simple documentation of the connected devices.
10 RS 485
This interface port is provided for programming the iCLOCK and updating
the device firmware. A software for remotely controlling the device over
LANs (Local-Area Networks) will be available in the future.
11 OPTION
This slot is provided for installing optional iCLOCK terminals. Refer to the
iCLOCK EXTENSIONS chapter for a short description of extensions available
currently or in the future.
12 MAINS IN 90 – 260V, Power Switch
This is the main switch for switching the device on and off. Be sure to
make all connections (especially the supplied power cable) properly before
turning on the switch. Heed the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS at the beginning of
this manual.
13 MAINS IN 90 – 260V, Power Inlet
Connect the supplied power cable here. Make sure that the power switch
is turned off before connecting the power cable to this inlet and to the
power outlet. Line voltages within the range of 90...260 V with a frequency
of 50 or 60 Hz can be applied. The internal power supply will automatically
make all necessary adjustments.
14 iCLOCK dp MAINS IN 90 – 260V, Power Inlets
Connect the supplied power cables here. It does not matter which power
inlet is used when only one power cable will be connected. In general ope-
ration two power cables containing mains voltage can be connected simul-
taneously. Line voltages within the range of 90...260 V with a frequency of
50 or 60 Hz can be applied. The internal power supplies will automatically
make all necessary adjustments.
iCLOCK dp does not consist of a power switch!
