DMT-8 Ver 2.0 Supplement to the Owner's Manual

3-6. Setting Slave mode On/Off ("SLAvE")

The "SLAvE" option in the Setup menu allows you to turn Slave mode on
and off. When this mode is on, the DMT-8 will be able to synchronize the
MTC (MIDI time code) sent from the master DMT-8 (or D-80). (Along with
the MTC, the master DMT-8 (or D-80) will send digital signals to the slave
DMT-8 as a reference).
This setting is effective only in the selected Program and will be maintained
after you turn off the power.
1. Press the DISP SEL key to select "STUP" and press the EXECUTE/YES
key. (The "SETUP" indicator will light up.) Turn the JOG dial to select
blinking "SLAvE".
The display will change to something similar to this, and the current value will
appear. (The default setting is "oFF".)
2. Press the EXECUTE/YES key again.
The letters "oFF" on the display will blink, and you can edit the value now.
3. Use the JOG dial to select "oFF" or "on".
Turning the JOG dial counter-clockwise will select "oFF", and turning it clockwise
will select "on".
4. Press the EXECUTE/YES key again.
The display in Step 1 will appear, and the setting is complete.
5. Press the STOP button or the EXIT/NO key to quit Setup mode.
< Note >
The DMT-8 requires an external digital as well as an external MTC for its
slave operation. Therefore, connect the DATA OUT terminal off the master
DMT-8 or DMT-8 Version 2.0 (or D-80) to the DATA IN terminal of the slave
unit using an optical cable. (You do not need to set any other settings on
the master unit, since the master unit's DATA OUT connector always outputs
digital signal.)
If you have not connected the units as described above (or in the slave unit
does not receive digital signals correctly for some reason), the "DIGITAL IN"
indicator of the slave unit will blink, indicating an error.
