  • Page 5: Names Of Things And What They Do

    S-4000S internal clock (fixed at 96 kHz) EXT (W.CLK) Word clock input to the WORD CLK input jack (maximum 96 kHz) SO-AES4 internal clock (switchable to 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz) Sampling-frequency switch This changes the sampling frequency when the clock source is SRC.
  • Page 6: Lock Indicator

    Word-clock output/thru switch (word-clock input terminal-resistor switch) This switches the functioning of the word-clock OUT/THRU jack. Also, when the SO-AES4 is functioning as a terminal for an external word clock, setting the switch to OUT (75Ω ON) enables the terminal resistor and prevents signal reflection.
