Interfacing
AES3 Error
indicates a missing AES3 synchronisation.
On the far left of the MUX unit there are 4 remote connectors (SUB-D 9 pole).
On every connector there are 2 remote inputs and 2 remote outputs.
A wiring table below shows the actual pinning of the 9 pin Sub-D connectors.
Pin #
Pin function
1
Common Contact 1 (CC)
2
Normally Closed 1 (NC)
3
Normally Open 2 (NO)
4
Remote 1 in (0/5V)
5
GND
6
Normally Open 1 (NO)
7
Common Contact 2 (CC)
8
Normally Closed 2 (NC)
9
Remote 2 in (0/5V)
In the area labeled "Clock" you see various connectors to drive external clock signals and
connectors to accept different synchronization clocks for external equipment.
The software allows for selecting different synchronization sources. The MUX unit accepts
external sources with sample-rates from 20kHz up to 49kHz.
AES3 In
is used to synchronize the Sirius internally.
AES3 Out
On this connector the internal frequency is offered on AES3 format to
synchronize external equipment.
MC In
This is the master clock input. The Master-clock is 256 times the internal
sample frequency.
MC Out
The Master-clock output always produces the internally used master clock
frequency.
FC In
The Frame-clock in connector (also known as "Word clock"). This input can
also be used to synchronize equipment.
FC Out
This connector always delivers the internal Frame -clock.
On the MUX unit there also all connectors for the control surfaces (Control surfaces 1, 2, 3). It
does not matter which Control Surface Unit (CSU) unit is connected to which CSU connector.
However it is useful to consider that the system starts counting (modules) from the connector
with the lowest number.
You can extend the SUB-D9 cable to a maximum length of 50 meters. That makes it possible
to have your 19 "Rack located in a machine room
Note: remember that your Keyboard/Monitor/Mouse connections must be extended as well.
