This BNC Input Connector allows the Orion³² to receive timing reference from an Atomic Clock such as the Antelope 10M, to increase the Oscillator accuracy. If the device is in Oven mode, plugging in the 10M causes the “Atomic LED” light to illuminate on the device front panel and the atomic device becomes the primary timing reference, thus providing better sample accuracy, more detailed sound and greater stability. -
