Internal Connectors - RME Audio Hammerfall HDSP 9652 User Manual

Word Clock I/O (BNC). When shipped, the word clock input is not terminated. Termination with
75 Ohm is available via jumper X105 on the Expansion Board.
The included MIDI breakout cable is connected to the 9-pin Mini-DIN connector, providing two
MIDI inputs and outputs.
Note: If neither Word Clock I/O, MIDI I/O, nor a third ADAT I/O is required, it is not necessary to
install the Expansion Board at all.

6.2 Internal Connectors

AEB1 IN / CD IN
This internal digital input can be used with both SPDIF and ADAT.
SPDIF
•
Connection to an internal CD-ROM drive with digital audio output. Allows for a direct trans-
fer of digital audio data within the computer.
•
Connection to SYNC OUT of another card. This internal SPDIF connection can be used to
synchronize multiple cards with sample accuracy, and without the need for an external
connection. The card of which SYNC OUT is used will be master, the SYNC IN one will be
slave. SPDIF In / Internal has to be selected in the Settings dialog. Additionally Pref. Sync
Ref has to be set to SPDIF In for this internal connection to work properly. Please note that
the external SPDIF or AES input can no longer be used.
ADAT
•
Connection to a TEB (TDIF Expansion Board). The highest sample rate is 96 kHz, the 4-
channel Double Wire mode (S/MUX) is automatically activated in Double Speed mode. Se-
lect AEB / ADAT Int. in the Settings dialog.
•
Connection to an AEB4-I or AEB8-I. When using these (no longer available) Expansion
Boards ST7 must also be connected to the Expansion Board. The highest sample rate is
48 kHz. Select AEB / ADAT Int. in the Settings dialog. In this mode, the optical input can
still be used as optical SPDIF input.
AEB2 IN
Jumper ST5 allows to connect a second AEBx-I. Remove the jumper (factory default position
ADAT2 IN), and connect the 2-core cable of the AEBx-I to position 'AEB2 IN'. Please note the
label GND for correct polarity. In this mode the optical input ADAT2 can't be used anymore.
ADAT 1 OUT
This internal ADAT output carries the same audio data as the optical output ADAT1 in ADAT
mode. Connecting an AEB4-O or AEB8-O, the highest sample rate is 48 kHz. Connecting a
TEB the highest sample rate is 96 kHz, the 4-channel Double Wire mode (S/MUX) is automati-
cally activated. The internal ADAT output stays active, even when the optical output is switched
into SPDIF operation. Please note the label GND for correct polarity.
ADAT 2 OUT
This internal ADAT output carries the same audio data as the optical output ADAT2. See ADAT
1 OUT for details. Both ports can be used to operate one AEBx-O each, for a maximum of 16
analog outputs.
SYNC OUT
This internal SPDIF output carries the same audio data as the external phono output. It can be
used to synchronize multiple cards, see above. Please note the label GND for correct polarity.
X6
14-pin connector for the Expansion Board connection using flat ribbon cable.
The connectors SYNC1, SYNC2, ST9 and X4 have no functionality.
