Clocking - DirectOut Technologies PRODIGY.MC Hardware Manual

Clocking

The device offers several options for clocking.
• PTP (Precision Time Protocol) - IEEE1588-2008 / PTPv 1 & 2 *
• SoundGrid (SoE) *
• Word Clock
• MADI input *
• AES3 input *
• internal clock generator
* depending on the modules installed.
When PTP (network) is selected the device can either act as slave or as network
grandmaster.
The front panel informs about selected clock sources and their lock / sync state.
