Operation
We suggest (though it is not absolutely necessary) that all equip-
ment is turned off when making connections to and from the
IF-TAD.
Since the word clock source will probably be changed
for one of the devices, causing an audible "glitch", you
should turn down the levels of all monitoring equip-
ment, to avoid damage to speaker systems, etc.
2.1
Word clock selection
As mentioned earlier, one, and only one, of the devices connected
to the IF-TAD must be acting as a word clock master. If both
devices are selected as a word clock master device, the indicators
4 and 6will flash, and the IF-TAD will not function.
Likewise, if neither is selected as a word clock master, there will
be no digital audio transfer possible (data will not be converted
using the IF-TAD).
Note that the WORD SYNC OUT connector also provides a clock
signal, based on the signals from the adat unit connected to the
IF-TAD, and this clock can be used to synchronize other units in
the system.
Refer to the units' documentation for full details of how to set up
the units as word clock masters and slaves. A few examples of how
to use somecommonly-used units are given below (however your
best source of reference is always the documentation provided
with the unit):
