Figure 2 – Rear Panel
All input and output connectors are mounted on the rear panel. Individual
connectors are clearly identified by the panel legend. Viewed from the rear,
generally from left to right, the connectors are as follows:
Two 20-turn potentiometers set the full scale input levels. These are factory
preset for full scale with input levels of +20dBu. If necessary, adjust with a
suitable trim tool or a small screwdriver. Turn clockwise for increased gain. Take
care to ensure the stereo inputs remain in balance. The trim range is ±6dB.
Reference In is an AES/EBU reference input for synchronising the unit to a
Master Clock. AES C
terminating resistor may be turned on or off, using the menu, if several units are
to be daisy chained.
Two AES/EBU outputs which may be used independently.

These outputs are for SDIF-2
a 75 ohm line.
This pair take in and give out Word Clock.
Out is regenerated internally, so these lines can be used for daisy chaining
many units together.
The RCA Phono connector should be used with a 75 ohm line.
The Toslink connector should be used with a Toslink fibre-optic cable designed
for digital audio use. Pull out the plastic cover before use.
