2Tr Digital Outs - Yamaha 02R96 Owner's Manual

Terminating External Wordclocks
Wordclock signals distributed via BNC cables must be terminated correctly, otherwise, jitter
and synchronization errors may result. Ideally, you should make a separate wordclock con-
nection to each device and terminate it. The following examples show two ways in which
wordclock signals can be distributed and how termination should be applied in each case.
Normally the WORD CLOCK 75Ω ON/OFF switch should be set to ON. The OFF setting
provides support for wordclock source devices with special specifications.
Star Distribution
In this example a dedicated wordclock distribution box is used to supply wordclock signals
to each device individually. Termination is applied at each device.
Daisy Chain Distribution
In this example the wordclock signal is distributed in a "daisy-chain" fashion, with each
device feeding the wordclock signal on to the next. This method of distribution is not rec-
ommended for larger systems.

2TR Digital Outs

The 02R96 features three sets of 2-track digital outputs: 2TR OUT
DIGITAL AES/EBU 1 uses an XLR-3-32-type connector and outputs
AES/EBU format digital audio. 2TR OUT DIGITAL COAXIAL 2 and 3
use phono connectors and output consumer format (IEC-60958) dig-
ital audio. These outputs can be patched to the Bus Outs, Aux Sends,
the Stereo Out, Input or Output Channel Insert Outs, or the Control Room signal (see
page 70). They can also be patched to Direct Outs (see page 70). Digital output signals can
be dithered for transfer to lower-resolution systems (see page 62).
