Digital Hookup
This example describes the hookup for the D8B console equipped for digital I/O
(DIO•8 or OPT•8).
Cables & Hardware
(3) DIO • 8 or OPT • 8 cards for D8B
(1) Apogee Clock I/O card for D8B (if D8B is the slave)
(6) ADAT optical cables
(1) 75
Ω BNC word clock cable
Hookup
1. Connect three ADAT optical cables from the SDR24/96 DIGITAL optical
outputs to the optical inputs on the corresponding D8B I/O cards.
2. Connect three ADAT optical cables from the SDR24/96 DIGITAL optical
inputs to the optical outputs on the corresponding D8B I/O cards.
3. When the D8B is the clock master, the SDR24/96 can derive its clock from
the Digital Optical input. When the SDR24/96 is the clock master, connect
the WORD CLOCK OUT on the SDR24/96 to the WORD CLOCK IN on
the D8B (the D8B must have an Apogee Clock I/O card installed).
SDR24/96 Settings
1. Set the Input Type (SETUP:I/O:INPUT TYPE SELECT) to ADAT for
Inputs 1-8, 9-16, and 17-24.
2. If the SDR24/96 is the clock master, set the Sample Clock to Internal. If
the SDR24/96 is a clock slave, set the Sample Clock to ADAT A (or B or C).
(SETUP:Sync:SClk:ADAT A).
3. Set the Sample Rate to 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz according to your preference.
Console Settings
1. If you have DIO • 8 cards installed, set the Tape Input and Tape Output
format for each card to ADAT. OPT • 8 cards need no configuration.
2. If the D8B is the clock master, set the Sample Clock to either 44.1 k
Internal or 48 k Internal. If it is a clock slave, then set the Sample Clock
to either 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz to match the Sample Rate selected on the
SDR24/96. Set the Apogee Clock to Word Clock.
Note: If you are us-
ing a D8B console
with OPT•8 cards
installed and the
SDR24/96 is the
clock master, then a
Clock I/O card must
also be installed in
the D8B to properly
synchronize its word
clock with the
SDR24/96.
